Chatted about the connections between care feminism, colonialism, and capitalism in with the wonderful @elissastrauss.bsky.social elissa.substack.com/p/the-interv...

there's mean like "rude comments" mean and there's mean like "Palmer raids" mean

APA member @serenekhader.bsky.social has won the North American Society for Social Philosophy's 2025 Book Award for 'Faux Feminism: Why We Fall for White Feminism and How We Can Stop.' Congratulations! www.brooklyn.edu/bc-brief/ser...

A breakthrough for gender equality? Not even! @serenekhader.bsky.social would correctly identify the stunt as girlboss feminism. This time, it’s dressed up in matching blue onesies and a jaunt beyond the stratosphere but still caters only to the 1%. Miss me with that mess.

The decision on Mahmoud Khalil today will reveal whether we live in a system where authorities can decide what speech is acceptable and condemn people on that basis. We all must pay attention.

They’re going to keep pushing until something stops them.

The article I'm talking about is this one by @lopezcantero.bsky.social and @bexmillar.bsky.social

From a history of elite feminist activism, there’s this idea that we’re going to do what helps elite women and it’s going to trickle down. Like @serenekhader.bsky.social tells @drcaromaldo.bsky.social, we know that doesn’t work. @muthamagazine.bsky.social

You can read all seven reflections and an introduction by @alysoncole18.bsky.social here: www.journals.uchicago.edu/toc/pol/2025... @serenekhader.bsky.social @erinrpineda.bsky.social

In January's #ClassicsRevisited, we asked seven authors to reflect on the enduring significance of Iris Marion Young’s “Justice and the Politics of Difference”, first published in 1990.

At JFREJ, we make endorsements under the cheeky name The Jewish Vote. We're thrilled to announce that #TheJewishVote endorses Council Member @shahanafrombk.bsky.social for reelection in district 39! Join #JewsForShahana: add your name to a letter of support here! ➡ bit.ly/J4SLetter

Join us on Friday for this timely debate

The definition of individual feminism and it's ties to colonialism explained by @serenekhader.bsky.social . #academicsky

I got to speak with @drcaromaldo.bsky.social at Mutha magazine about our shared commitment to treating women of color as theorists--and made a cool new local friend along the way! Yes, philosophy and feminism are for everyone <3

These books by @imaniperry.bsky.social, @jeannetheoharis.bsky.social, @serenekhader.bsky.social, @cherylneely.bsky.social, and others highlight how women have educated and inspired generations. They’re a shout-out to women writers because writing educates and inspires. #WomensHistoryMonth

If you are around Philly, and want to talk about how feminism isn't about being Dream Big Barbie, come hang with me and my #dreamdate Sophie Lewis @reproutopia.bsky.social at Penn on Thursday. We will be in convo with @sukaina.bsky.social, brilliant philosopher and matchmaker extraordinaire.

Walter Benjamin writing about fascism in 1936 "Fascism attempts to organize the newly proletarianized masses without affecting the property structure which the masses strive to eliminate. Fascism sees its salvation in giving these masses not their right, but instead a chance to express themselves."

Even if you think Paul Weiss and Columbia made the only choice available to them in the circumstances (and that's not what I think, to be clear), you have to recognize that there's no future for our democracy if every powerful institution approaches official extortion in this way.

Occupying Gaza and establishing military rule there would go beyond Israel's stated war goals to end Hamas rule and free hostages captured in the Oct. 7, 2023 attack.

So excited to vote for Zohran!

Sabotaging Social Security: Trump & Musk Move Ahead with Plan to Cut Agency Staff & Critical Services

Remind yourself, for instance, that the premised association with Tren de Aragua is one of the facts for which the administration has offered no evidence whatsoever - when you read passages like "the lack of specific information about each individual...demonstrates that they are terrorists"

Beatings, overcrowding and food deprivation: US deportees face distressing human rights conditions in El Salvador’s mega-prison

On the occasion of Chuck Schumer’s publication date, I would like to wish everyone a very good fuck Schumer.

More than two-thirds of all adults in the United States have some connection to Medicaid. Republicans are trying to essentially cut the entire program.

“To put unjust hierarchy at the center of our thinking is at once to see what is wrong with many unfreedoms foisted on women […] and to see that sometimes what we need is something other than freedom. Sometimes we need care and support.” From today’s reading by @serenekhader.bsky.social

Got to discuss Flaming Hot Cheetos and lefty feminism on The Insurgents with @jordanuhl.com. Check it out!

i think shutting the government down is preferably to nullifying article i of the constitution

Rep. McBridge is amazing (and shouldn't have had to do this)/republicans are like "I can't come to work if I can't just openly hate people there."

Big Tech can pander to the patriarchy all they want. 😒 We’re celebrating #WomensHistoryMonth with these books by @megstoneimpact.bsky.social, @pdtoler.bsky.social, @serenekhader.bsky.social, @imaniperry.bsky.social, and others! 🔥 H/T: @colemanthe2nd.bsky.social

Madeline ahead of the vibe since @reproutopia.bsky.social and I have two conversations coming up in the following month!

tapping the sign once more to encourage everyone to support billionaire-free news - including and especially the worker-run, reader funded variety

"The fact is, the battle over “DEI” has always been a fight about labor, work, and who has access to the jobs and political institutions that build and protect wealth. If we ever forgot that, we’re learning it again now." me for @slate.bsky.social slate.com/news-and-pol...

If you’re looking for feminist reads during #WomensHistoryMonth, @katemanne.bsky.social suggests Kate Hamilton’s MAD WIFE and @serenekhader.bsky.social’s FAUX FEMINISM in her roundup! 🙏🏽

🔥 Rep. Al Green is not new to standing up

The system Bezos is championing has enabled the rich to get richer faster and the working class to burnout quicker.

Wonderful news. Congratulations and lots of power!

The problem with answering email is that it makes you get more email

Glad these kinds of stories are getting significant exposure. Hope all those “ethics of AI” philosophy jobs are filled by ppl who spend their time talking about this!

if you don't believe this run a search for "the sin of empathy"

📚💙 💡📚 Faux Feminism: Why We Fall for White Feminism and How We Can Stop by Serene Khader 2024

"To ask questions about hierarchies of desire and desirability immediately leads us into questions about whose interests our current sexual order is serving and whose it is not." Bad Sex, an excerpt from @serenekhader.bsky.social's Faux Feminism. Read the full chapter in our gallery:

"To revel in love, is to tap into a grand human activity of a revolution that erodes indifference."

Seems like a good time to tap the sign once again: would strongly recommend supporting non-billionaire owned news media - especially the independent, local, worker-run and/or reader funded variety

Proud new member of the Anti-Misogyny club @anti-misogyny.bsky.social! Read on for a spicy excerpt from Faux Feminism on bad sex and the orgasm gap.

This is one of the reasons I wrote this book <3
