I'm proud to announce that I've been self-awarded the 2025 FIFA Prize for History.

ICE’s operation against Minnesota’s Somali community is seen not as an immigration raid but as a racist intimidation campaign.

Today’s renaming of military bases for Confederates, re-installing of Confederate statue, denigration of Black holidays, refusal to acknowledge Black contributions while decimating civil rights by an openly white nationalist administration is all to signal the “restoration” of the racial order.

"I’ll never forget the look of hatred [Farage] had for me, seemingly simply for existing. Without knowing my name but just looking at me with what appeared to be no appreciation of my humanity and simply because of how I looked."

Another update on baby Chance, the child of Adriana Smith, a Georgia woman who was brain dead and turned into an incubator because of abortion bans. He’s still hospitalized and not going home anytime soon. What’s worse? His family are footing the bill. people.com/georgia-baby...

i made a video about the president's gutter racism against somali-americans and how a scandal became a smear became a call for de facto ethnic cleansing

The rhetoric today is nearly indistinguishable from Know-Nothing rhetoric about the Irish, the Italians, and the Jews.

"It’s difficult to conceive of a cohesive and robust Republican Party emerging out of the ruins being wrought by Trump. And considering the untold damage the party has done to the nation over the past 25 years, perhaps that's for the better."

this clip encapsulates so much of what has been wrong about MSM Trump coverage for the past decade -- treating Trump's lies and bigotry as a valid "side" of a debate instead of calling it out, because calling it out makes it seem as though you're biased

The Trump administration is expanding its immigration raids targeting Somalis in Minneapolis this week, with reports of detentions already made as President Donald Trump spews vitriolic, racist hate against the population of several hundred thousand people in the U.S.

Really letting the hood slip, here.

Pop star Sabrina Carpenter slams the White House for using “Juno” in an ICE arrest video: “This video is evil and disgusting. Do not ever involve me or my music to benefit your inhumane agenda.”

Mon portrait de l'universitaire américain Mark Bray, auteur du livre "L'Antifascisme. Son passé, son présent et son avenir" (@luxediteur.bsky.social) @mark-bray.bsky.social

Grateful for your bravery, @mark-bray.bsky.social calling out the "textbook authoritarianism stuff" with What a Day. Everyone should hear about the attempted roadblocks to your leaving the country. The interview can be heard at this file: pdst.fm/e/arttrk.com... May the resistance continue...

Have had a great few days with the indomitable @candundar.bsky.social filming an episode of Guardians of Truth for DW.

The word "remigration" is xenophobic and christofascist AF. It's a racist expression of ethnic cleansing and hate. Do not let it become normalized.

Isn’t this something that should be investigated? What are the details related to this pardon? Who requested that a pardon be considered on behalf of Juan Hernandez. What documents, emails exist? Was anything of value offered? Who was involved in the process?

ICE was blocked and impeded by people all the way to the Lincoln Tunnel

Vile. Disgusting. Shameful.

A reminder for those who are not aware: "remigration" is the process of deporting all non-white people from a country. It includes citizens and is, by definition, ethnic cleansing. And to be clear: this is not fake. I just screenshot it myself.

And it only cost Americans a quarter billion in taxpayer money

the lady who ran pro wrestling decided to reboot education

Please do not let anyone ever tell you that there were not movements of people opposed to slavery, pretty much wherever it existed.

Our legal victory in AAUP v. Trump ensures that the Trump administration cannot use civil rights laws to pull federal research funds from universities, which undermines our 1st and 10th amendment rights. AAUP General Counsel Veena Dubal explains why this is a major victory for higher ed workers.

WHOA. The FBI was/is spying on a Signal chat for a New York immigration court watch group, claiming they were “anarchist violent extremist actors.” Your reminder that the government is watching and don’t say anything in a big group chat you wouldn’t say on TV. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

MIT's famous linguistic professor Noam Chomsky was in regular and close contact with sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, according to a review of emails published by the U.S. House Oversight Committee. In the documents, Chomsky described Epstein as a "highly valued friend."

Democrats fear political violence after Trump accuses lawmakers of sedition

So just so everyone is clear about what this is : Mike Johnson and the executive branch are normalizing the claim that any kind of dissent that is fact based is treason and an executable offense to the fascist regime. This is the intellectual framework for the mass murder of your opposition.

"A Chinese immigrant was found dead in U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) detention, with his hands and feet tied behind him, an attorney has alleged." www.newsweek.com/ice-detainee...

For the first time in my career, I can’t tell people to trust what the CDC website says. And that is an incredibly sad and devastating place for this country to be.

NEW: I spent a week in Connecticut’s only immigration court, where thousands of people each year learn if they can stay in the United States. The court doesn’t allow photography, so I took an illustrator. My latest for @ctinsider.bsky.social — www.ctinsider.com/news/article... #nutmegsky

NEW: In 2024, Tierra Walker was sick and getting sicker. She was also pregnant. She knew abortion was illegal in Texas, but thought there was an exception for women like her, whose health was at risk. Doctors told her there was no emergency. Then she died. www.propublica.org/article/texa...

Over 20,000 students stayed home from school Monday in Charlotte amid ICE raids, representing 15% of enrollment The district is nearly one-third Hispanic, per WBTV www.wbtv.com/2025/11/18/n...

Un acto muy necesario en el lugar y el día que tenía que ser. @mark-bray.bsky.social, profesor y autor de Antifa visita la combativa Facultad de CCPP y Sociología de la Complutense para presentar su libro y hablar de la situación que se vive en EEUU y que le ha llevado al exilio El #20N a las 12h.

El lunes 24 @mark-bray.bsky.social inaugura junto a Ramón del Castillo y Vicente Ordóñez el ciclo sobre viejos y nuevos fascismos de La pecera y el taller de estudios culturales de la UNED. Ojo, por cuestiones de espacio la sesión será en el @ateneomaliciosa.net

“I do think that Maga is a fascist movement, I do think that the intent of the administration is to destroy opposition and protest and is to create an authoritarian system”

MAGA’s ongoing war on academic freedom, reflected in headlines from the last 24 hours.

"They tried to shut me up by deporting me." www.npr.org/2020/12/22/9...

My Antifa book is on the New York Times Bestseller list 8 years after publication. Thank you to everyone who has supported me (and my family) in so many ways (including buying books). #NoPasarán

the thing that strikes me about this — again, besides it being false — is the venom and disrespect for the people who come here to work and build better lives. they aren’t “servants.”

Rubio is working on legal grounds to persecute antifa. Four foreign groups are now Specially Designated Global Terrorists (SDGTs) and they hope to designate them FTOs. Only one is actually an antifascist group: Hungary has previously focused on Antifa Ost (Hammerbande). www.state.gov/releases/202...

Demain mercredi 12 novembre de 17h à 20h30 à l’EHESS (54 boulevard Raspail, 75014 Paris), dans le cadre du Séminaire Politique des Sciences (PdS): « La capture du récit historique par l’extrême droite » Aux côtés de Mark Bray, @thomaslemahieu.bsky.social , Michèle Riot-Sarcey et Natacha Coquery.

The AP tracked down details of some of the people killed in President Trump's military strikes on drug smugglers he describes as narco-terrorists. They were, with one exception, not high-level criminals. One was a fisherman. One was a bus driver; another a taxi driver. apnews.com/article/trum...

ICE deported him anyways. They literally put a man who was at death’s door on a plane to Costa Rica. Doctors there found he had encephalopathy, rhabdomyolysis and the inability to eat on his own. What happened to him in ICE custody to cause this? He died a few weeks after deportation:

Imagine having a kid in this daycare who watches as their teacher is bodily dragged away by masked goons.

The Office of the Secretary of War acknowledged a series of detailed questions by The Intercept about designated terrorist organizations but would not even say if it knew which DTOs the U.S. is targeting with lethal attacks, much less provide a list of the groups.

I continue to believe that the Trump *campaign* successfully convinced quite a lot of people that mass deportations did not mean mass deportations; that it meant targeted enforcement against “the bad guys.” The problem for the Trump *administration* is that no one believes that anymore.

Importantly, Africana Studies is not just about the continent. The implication is that global Black history and life is not worthy of serious study.
