A reminder that if the government can send migrants to a prison camp without any due process, it can send U.S. citizens there, too. I know because this happened to me and my family in 1942.

Mahmoud Khalil should be at home with his pregnant wife. Instead, he's been illegally abducted & had his constitutional right to free speech & due process stripped. We're demanding his immediate release and we cannot allow this abuse of power to go unchecked. #FreeMahmoudKhalil

So very ashamed of the immigration policies of the US and Panama right now. Mass deportations, unlawful detentions, and rampant violations of human rights. Wish I could say I was surprised but a scapegoating of non-European migrants and their descendants has for too long united both countries.

"OptumRx, the group’s pharmacy benefit manager, along with its two main peers, Express Scripts and CVS Caremark Rx, have pocketed an extra $7.3 billion over cost thanks to price gouging, according to the findings of a report by the Federal Trade Commission." Lina Khan really is That Girl.

Birthright citizenship is the norm in the Americas. Certain racist, xenophobic, and fascist leaders have tried and continue to try to challenge this right. Don’t be fooled by the lies and misinformation.

It's Monday before election day and I'm thinking about what solidarity looks like. Here I share a piece I wrote a couple of years back on the origins of Black Solidarity Day (November 3, 1969). How are we thinking about solidarity today and how is it serving us? www.aaihs.org/dr-carlos-e-...

A necessary read.

I’m teaching about marronnage (escaping from slavery and creating independent free communities) and the Haitian Revolution this week. The work of Crystal Eddins, Michel-Rolph Trouillot, and the Egalite for All documentary are front and center. There is no history of the modern world without Haiti!

Maybe age is catching up to me but as I entered my Intro to Caribbean Studies course I swear I just saw my nieces and nephews with their baby faces all grown up. To be stern or just grab their cheeks 😂

Apropos of *gestures around at everything* Today is the day that Parable of the Sower begins.

Come on people, social media didn’t make kids bad at reading comprehension. That frames the unacceptable as inevitable. Mass disinvestment from humanities education, from teaching nuance, critique, and deliberation did. Policy is the problem and policy is the solution. Eyes on the prize.
