There is a BIG difference between lobbying which is what the "training" video is and scholarship on Israel. If this description is correct (haven't seen it), then the information provided on antisemitism and Israel is disputed/rejected by scholarship and it is promoting misinformation. Scary shit.

Labels can impact politics. My paper @apsrjournal.bsky.social "What Happens When You Can't Check the Box?" shows when Middle Eastern & North African (MENA) Americans are excluded from identity categories, they assert MENA identity when answering relevant political questions. doi.org/10.1017/S000...

I just woke up to some of the best news imaginable, news I’d not believe if her own sister didn’t confirm it below. Our colleague Elizabeth Tsurkov—the Israeli-Russian PhD student at Princeton who was kidnapped whilst doing fieldwork in Iraq in March 2023—is, finally, free!!! 🧵

You will find the consumers who switched from "INFLATION TOP CONCERN" to "No Big Deal" are overwhelmingly Republicans, and its journalistic malpractice no one in the political press seems aware of how today "partyID" mostly explains self-reported economic sentiment. This. Is. So. Tiring.

Veterans make up 6.1% of the US population but 24% of federal workers. Proposed government cuts disproportionately affect those who served our country. Here's a brief history of #veterans protests against Washington, Coolidge, and Trump buff.ly/YPFWrU9

Tweets from African Americans are 3.7x more likely to be labeled as abusive. Tweets from African American males are 77% more likely to be labeled as hateful.

🚨NEW PAPER: Why are Members of Congress so extreme? We conducted a 4-wave panel of thousands of voters in 27 districts during last year’s primary AND general elections to trace polarization’s roots The results challenge conventional wisdom… and suggest lessons for parties🧵👇

Most student complaints I get are that I assign academic articles and make them write original argument papers. Which means I am a scary bitch. It is in fact very rude that I expect students to put in effort.

From Bluesky to the Guardian! In my new op-Ed, I argue that the “male glaze” of media and politics is empirically, normative, and politically wrong and that progressives should focus more on the left turn of young women.

Whelp. It happened to me. An r&r got rejected. I'm exhausted. Find me crying in the corner.

Important development. I confess that I am pessimistic regarding the impact such action will have, the Israeli govt already responded to Britain "the mandate ended 77 years ago". Which is a funny comeback considering how much of the mandate remains institutionally www.nytimes.com/2025/05/20/w...

The gender gap in BA degrees flipped in early 1980s. The gender gap in doctoral degrees flipped two decades ago. White men only earn about 26% of doctoral degrees in US. Conservatives are complaining about a *smaller* decline in WM representation than predicted based solely on education trends.

🚨 “We just need to recognize that we’re all citizens of this country.” –– Politicians + citizens often stress a shared national identity when trying to bridge racial, partisan, or other group divides. @stysyropoulos.bsky.social & I show why such “shared” identities are doomed to fail. 🧵1/9

The current incorporation of silent protest while holding pictures of Palestinian children killed in Gaza is part of a longstanding repertoire of protest against the occupation and oppression of Palestinians. Women in Black and other peace protestors have been doing this for decades.

A new analysis found that dark money groups spent almost $2 billion on the 2024 election, roughly double the total spent in 2020. And the full amount is even higher because certain types of spending cannot be tracked.

Using formal state institutions to conduct blatantly illegal and inhumane activity - this liminal or queer space - I can't really categorize it or figure out how to respond.

Israeli politics update: Israel has called up over 10 thousand reserves for a long-term activity (not two day prep training). Extreme right wing minister bezalel smotrich says that Israel will not be withdrawing from Gaza and called for Israeli sovereignty in gaza.
