I’ve written a new piece —"The American Psychological Association and the Weaponization of Antisemitism"—in which I describe APA's failure to (1) reject the weaponization of antisemitism, and (2) stand strongly in support of Palestinian rights, dignity, and freedom. royeidelson.com/the-american...

My thanks to Lauren Lassabe Shepherd, host of American Campus Podcast, for the opportunity to discuss my book "DOING HARM" and its relevance to this political moment, in which civil society organizations must step forward. www.buzzsprout.com/2396665/epis... @llassabe.bsky.social

A very misleading open letter/petition from "Psychologists Against Antisemitism" accuses the American Psychological Association of "systemic" and "virulent" antisemitism. I’ve written a brief response to these outrageous accusations: royeidelson.com/my-brief-res...

UN rightly calls for the release of Abu Zubaydah. There should be no such thing as a “forever prisoner”, never charged and never tried in a democracy. The two are fundamentally incompatible. www.ohchr.org/en/press-rel...

Over the past year, I’ve been dismayed by 1) the weaponization of false charges of antisemitism to silence pro-Palestinian activism & 2) the failure of many within the psychology profession to combat this destructive silencing. As 2024 winds down, here are 3 essays I wrote reflecting my concerns...

The Guantánamo (yes it's still open) prisoner population is now 27; 3 were transferred out in the last few days. Of those remaining, 15 were cleared for release many years ago, 4 "forever prisoners" have never been tried, 2 are serving sentences, and 6 are on trial. www.nytimes.com/2024/12/18/u...

I have found Israeli historian Lee Mordechai’s efforts painstakingly documenting and analyzing the horrors that Israel has inflicted on Gaza over the past 14 months to be essential reading. This week he issued an updated version and it’s available here: witnessing-the-gaza-war.com/wp-content/u...

I wrote about billionaires and the psychology's "Dark Triad" (Machiavellianism, Narcissism, and Psychopathy) several years ago. But it seems as relevant as ever today, sadly. www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/dang...

Very exciting to have Eyal Press (@epress.bsky.social) posting here. His book Dirty Work shaped how I think about essential work in society and the position of people doing morally compromised jobs.

Sabri al Qurashi painted this image of Guantánamo Bay seen through an airplane window in 2014, just before he was released after 12 years of detention without ever even being charged with a crime. If he could maintain hope - a vision of taking off into a better future - so can I...

Politicians may claim there is an “immigrant crime wave,” but the data proves that is a myth.

As U.S. ambassador to Israel, Mike Huckabee will likely go further in advocating for the destruction of Palestine, stepping up the holocaust in Gaza and pushing for the annexation.

Hi 🦋! It’s good to be here, belatedly. I’m a psychologist & writer. My recent book “DOING HARM” examines the American Psychological Association's failure to adequately oppose the abuse & torture of US “war on terror” prisoners. Will APA respond differently in the future? That's an open question.

With the ICC's arrest warrant this week, recalling these contrasting reactions to this alleged perpetrator.. FIRST: UN delegates walk out on Netanyahu (9/272024) SECOND: Standing ovation from US Congress for Netanyahu (7/24/2024) Could it be any clearer where the complicity lies?

Back in August, the APA's governing body finally approved a resolution calling for a ceasefire in Gaza. Since that vote, however, APA execs have opted for silence—as the genocide continues to unfold. I wrote this piece last month—but they seemingly still don't care. mondoweiss.net/2024/10/the-...
