Gaza doctors ‘becoming too weak to treat patients’ as hunger crisis deepens

In Nothing More of This Land, Aquinnah Wampanoag writer Joseph Lee takes readers past the celebrity summer scene and into the heart of Noepe, the name his people have called the island for centuries.

My book, Nothing More of This Land, is out today! It’s an exploration of Indigenous identity from my Wampanoag homelands on Martha’s Vineyard to Indigenous land around the world. Get yours at your favorite bookstore or via the link in my bio!! 🌊🐋

SCOOP—Emails obtained by @zeteo.com show Mahmoud Khalil reached out for help from the Columbia administration *one day before* ICE detained him. He said he couldn't sleep from threats he was receiving. He even wrote that he feared ICE "might come to my home."

Mahmoud Khalil has been quietly sent 1000+ miles away to a Louisiana ICE facility. Note this ACLU/RFK Human Rights report from *just months ago* on ICE detention in LA — "Inside the Black Hole: Systemic Human Rights Abuses Against Immigrants Detained & Disappeared in Louisiana"
