The next season of @serial is about Guantanamo. I got an alert today that they shout out Guantanamo Voices in their “special thanks” section. 😭 I’m glad this horrific, ongoing crime is getting more attention. I hope the show changes Americans’ understanding of Guantanamo

I wrote + drew a comic book for NYC Public Schools!!! It’s on Kalpana Chawla aka the first woman of Indian origin to go space and Sana Amanat (@MiniB622), who gave us Ms. Marvel Kamala Khan. It’s one of the coolest things I have done (thanks Joe!) and I hope you’ll read it :)
It is my pleasure to announce the publication of Sensational Stories:Real Life Heroes #1 a new Hidden Voices CIVICS FOR ALL COMICS GROUP comic written and drawn by the fantastic @KaySohini! Download a copy today: weteachnyc.org/resources/reso…
You can donate your comic to their online archive! From their IG, “We’re looking to publish work that reflects on the ongoing genocide in Palestine as well as Palestine’s history of occupation & displacement.” 1/2

I’ve been laid off from my job as a columnist for the LA Times today, with 100 of my best colleagues. It’s a dark day. I was the only Latina columnist for the opinion desk. Trump is looming & I’m author of Hatemonger. If you're hiring, I’m at [email protected]
I know that I showcased the logo for my new romance store, Grand Gesture Books, yesterday, but I wanted to give it its own moment. My friend Kelsey designed it, and if you don’t know, the book is opened to about the 2/3s mark because that’s when the gesture starts to get planned.
BIG NEWS: I’m opening a romance bookstore here in Portland, Oregon! It’s called Grand Gesture Books and it’ll be the second Black owned bookstore in the Rose City. While it’ll be online for the next couple of months, a brick and mortar is coming 💘 1/2
I was working @nytimes on The Daily in May 2021 when Israel began another deadly bombing of Gaza While recording the show, I pushed back, called out the wishy washy pro-Israeli slant. In response, an editor outright said “you shouldn’t work on this bc you’re Palestinian” 🧵
In their first broadcast interview since being forced out of @NYTmag for signing an open letter condemning Israel's siege on Gaza, award-winning writers @jazzedloon and @jamiekeiles speak out about their decisions to leave the publication.
The most important story of the #BlockCopCity action is not the police aggression, which was expected. It is the methods and tactics used by protesters to keep one another safe, effectively preventing any arrests or injuries. Let's take a closer look. 🧵
I was subject of a nasty and dishonest hit piece this week because of my vocal pro-Palestine tweets and my criticisms of people in power who are failing to support justice and I know a lot of people are scared of this happening to them to Advice: 1. Get joindeleteme.com
For example - the @AMNH has great signage about the repatriation of this necklace!

Our actions are working, and they are not enough. Nothing we do is sufficient, and everything we do matters. We must be strategic, and we must operate on multiple fronts simultaneously. Time is of the essence, and we have to act for the long haul. This is how change happens.
