Georgetown university Students for Justice in Palestine calling for a walkout on Thursday- be there. Students are making history & reviving a history of student activism! All campus should be part of this and stand on the side of love freedom and demand a free Palestine
WVU is not "just where West Virginia students come to get job skills. It’s a place they come to that opens up the whole world to them and makes things possible that weren’t possible to them. That’s just been driven into the ground.” Folklorist Rosemary Hathaway

Italian students are protesting too. I don’t think people understand the ramifications of the protests at Columbia. Those kids are literally leading and paving the way with their activism. Palestine will set us all free.
Rashid Khalidi is against political violence and believes that Israeli national identity isn’t going anywhere. He is as conciliatory and evenhanded as a Palestinian nationalist gets — that’s why the usual suspects are trying to paint him as a wellspring of violent antisemitism.
Always great reads by @AdelDashela. This time discussing Saudis shifting alliances from northern to eastern tribes of #Yemen. sanaacenter.org/the-yemen-revi…
The level of repression we have seen in response to this war is just insane.

Watching the NYU faculty get arrested protecting their students and reflecting on what our duty of care to our students at this critical juncture in history really is...

The AI supply chain: "It makes visible the connection between an engineer training an algorithm in the UK, a miner extracting tantalum in Kazakhistan, an engineer in Mexico working in a data centre, a worker in Taiwan manufacturing GPUs and a worker in Kenya dismantling e-waste"
So freaking proud of our students all over the nation. I'm trying not to be too emotional about this, but lord have mercy. Here's ours at Yale last night. I'm on shift again tomorrow. Colleagues there today report they're doing well. Morale is resolute.
It's important to remember that Edward Said taught at Columbia for 40 years. Columbia has a Centre for Palestinian Studies due to his scholarship. He unabashedly navigated those wretched spaces; confronting and exposing what no one else would— to build an entire new discipline.
This is the kind of thing my partner's been writing her dissertation on for several years in Iraq and it's honestly one of the most wholesome things to hear stories like this

I'm offering the inaugural History of Modern Palestine and Israel course at UC Davis this Spring. The course has been much bigger than the room we're assigned to (max capacity: 100), which is so hopeful and wonderful, is also frustrating.
I am disgusted by my graduate institution. We are witnessing a vast crackdown on college students across the nation on behalf of a brutal war waged by a reactionary right wing government.

Today the House votes on a bill that would push millions of Yemenis deeper into crisis. While the bill is called the Standing Against Houthi Aggression Act, it does little to punish the Houthis & instead would hurt the most vulnerable Yemenis. Here's why:

Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi suggests some pro-Palestinian protests, especially those against President Biden, have “a Russian tinge to it.” “It's in Putin's interest for 'What's His Name' to win, and therefore I see some encouragement on the part of the Russians.”
It seriously feels like there will be a Kent State by the end of the week and I am terrified.

My 1968 joke tweet got me an email from someone at NPR who wants to chat about that tumultuous year. This really is a beautiful site sometimes.
I just can’t believe the parallels with 1968. I mean ok, Columbia has unrest and there’s widespread anti war activism, that might be coincidence. But there is a guy named Robert Kennedy running for president and the DNC is in Chicago. Like is this a bit?
As someone who went to Columbia for three years I can tell you that you’re wrong. Jewish students *lead* in the pro-Palestine movement, sometimes at great personal cost. Jewish Voice for Peace is a major, independent faction in campus politics.
@mehdirhasan There are definitely Jews involved in the campus pro-Palestine protests. I know a number of them. But there's also a pretty big tokenization issue. A kind of Hebraic let me introduce you to my black friend vibe.
But you can't ignore the powerful psychological dimension among donors and politicians who rose in part through these universities' alumni networks. The Oedipal anxieties... The fear of one's own irrelevance and mortality in a society that fetishizes youth and fears death...
Another important factor deliberately obscured by the coverage is that students are calling for unimaginably wealthy unis to divest. These are effectively massive hedge funds with an educational side mission that offers a convenient tax shelter. There are real material stakes...
So..what do you call your act? The Democrats!
Sometimes, the proletariat fucking sucks and wants bad things and should be oppressed
Just received a stellar review of my @degruyter_brill biography "The Tale of a Feud: Domination, Resistance, and Agency in Highland Yemen" from the brilliant Gabriele vom Bruck @SOAS praising it as "superb," "masterful," and "tremendously moving."
WVU is not "just where West Virginia students come to get job skills. It’s a place they come to that opens up the whole world to them and makes things possible that weren’t possible to them. That’s just been driven into the ground.” Folklorist Rosemary Hathaway
WVU students and faculty are wrapping up a tumultuous year after cuts to hundreds of jobs and 28 majors. "I really think this is something they should have figured out before they took my tuition money. It’s unethical at best," a freshman student told me. westvirginiawatch.com/2024/04/23/its…
We could also discuss some of the Biden->Humphrey parallels, but I'll let someone else do that while I sit in this corner and cry.

Disappointed? Yes. Surprised? No. I don’t doubt Malala is a good and fine person who does probably believe she’s doing the right thing. Unfortunately, being a celebrity activist is quite different from being a regular activist & organiser. Our faces in high places won’t save us
Michael, I highly & sincerely suggest you get yourself out of my mentions. You hold neither the social nor intellectual capacity to get into an argument with me. You are a bad-faith bad actor, bad comedian and overall shitty human being I do not have any interest in entertaining.
Buy this book!!
It’s publication day! It’s hard to sum up what it feels like to have written a book, my gratitude to so many people who have supported me along the way, and the weight of responsibility I feel about writing about a conflict that affects so many people. yalebooks.yale.edu/book/978030025…

What's the over/under on how long until Fetterman starts using "Judea and Samaria"
Hard not to look back on the past 6+ months and the past few years and feel like nothing has moved or changed. I'm both energized by the people around me and the collective mobilization, and incredibly frustrated by those who have the most power to move things and do nothing
