“A writer at the Times contacted me to talk. He said he was less interested in Mamdani himself than he was in the Africana Studies part…” On why maybe you shouldn’t talk to the New York Times about Zohran Mamdani.

Nuremburg trials is the moderate position

You can read @lukelebrun.ca’s thread for all the details but here’s the gist: if you want journalists in Canada to be able to report on documents leaked by whistleblowers, you want @pressprogress.ca to win this lawsuit. The best way to help is to support this fundraising campaign 👇🏻
