British Jews are tired. Quite literally tired after 25 hours of fasting and intensive prayers. So please don’t expect quick and thoughtful takes on the Manchester synagogue attack from us. Give us a few days.

Elia is an indispensable thinker for these times. If your institution needs research-analysis-pedagogy which is critical, transdisciplinary and path-opening, look no other way.

I’m actually reeling. They are literally walling people inside Elfashir, so they can exterminate them. And we’re all just watching it happen. The helplessness is soul crushing 😭😭😭 #KeepEyesOnSudan

Australian doctor in Gaza: “We’re here in Gaza at the moment…we weren’t allowed to bring in any baby formula or any cash…it’s mass casualty event after mass casualty event, it’s a nightmare…”

Today's quick update [Sep 19]: - Early morning RSF drone strike on a mosque in Elfashir. - The strike coincided with Fajr prayers; at least 43 people reported killed "on the spot", as well as a number of injured. #KeepEyesOnSudan

Just released a new episode with the brilliant @bsonblast.bsky.social about Sudan, the perils of online activism, and ultimately about the struggle between empathy and apathy for African lives, and so much more. www.youtube.com/watch?v=jf71...

Israel's treatment of Palestinian prisoners since 7 Oct is comparable to the worst dictatorships on earth. - the number keeps growing, and is now around 11k - close to 90% are held without trial - starvation as policy - rampant torture - dozens died in prison, no accountability

David Chichkan, 39, artist, anarchist, anti-authoritarian activist, gravely wounded defending Ukraine on August 8, died on August 9, 2025. Pictures below from moving tributes to him on Instagram, where you can also see footage of him appearing in Oleksiy Radynski’s 2016 documentary film ‘Landslide’

Kyiv bids farewell to journalist Viktoriia Roshchyna, who was tortured to death by russians while in captivity. On the square, people knelt in her honor.

"There are griefs, perhaps all griefs, so copious, so impossibly stubborn, so unbearably alive, that only the earth, or the sea, or the night sky feel capable of even approaching the act of holding." danielvoskoboynik.substack.com/p/a-prayer-d...

You will not see a more tangible encapsulation of the genocide. A war of utter annihilation waged as a joint enterprise between the Israeli state on the ground and its allies in consistent support. The debt of reparations that the West owes to the Palestinian people at this point is incalculable.

As rabbis led Jews of conscience in reciting the Mourner’s Kaddish for the Palestinians killed in recent weeks, NYPD officers hauled off two buses full them to jail.

It is hard to know how to help. This is a good list. #gaza

Judaism: “What is hateful to you, do not do to your neighbor. That is the whole Torah; the rest is commentary.” To claim condemning wrongdoing is “anti-Semitic” is to claim Judaism would remain mute at & allow for horrific violence against others. I cannot imagine a more anti-Semitic idea than that.

The images and messages coming out of Gaza are so distressing. People are being deliberately starved to death by Israel and then shot at when they try to get food to survive. It's an abomination that the world's governments are allowing this to happen. Open the borders!

Arwa, do any memories stand out from your times in Gaza? Arwa Damon: "A mother said I don't know what to do about my son. He's 5 & every night he screams.. & he rocks back & forth pulling his hair out & he's been doing this ever since he saw his baby sisters head blown off"

Utter depravity. We will need Nuremberg-type trials to ever come back from this.

⚠️ Hay 20.000 trabajadores y trabajadoras migrantes trabajando en la agricultura de la Comarca del Campo de Cartagena, dentro de la cual se encuentra el municipio de Torre Pacheco. Vamos a intentar explicar un poco el contexto social y laboral existente. Sigue el hilo 🧵

And they haven't even started the bigger concentration camps

loved this conversation and so appreciate the space for independent thought @thefirethesetimes.com has created

Just days ago, Brad Lander called me to interpret for an Arabic-speaking asylee whose case was approved, yet ICE was still harassing him inside the building. Brad personally escorted him out to safety. He does this kind of work quietly, every day.

The Board of Deputies and Chief Rabbi once again offer uncritical support to a rogue state currently committing a genocide. In aligning with Israel’s far-right government, they enable apartheid, military aggression and mass civilian death.

Listen in to the second episode of Hidah, interviewing rabbinic scholar Daniel Boyarin on Gaza, diasporism, and the future of Jewishness: Brought to you as part of @fromtheperiphery.com www.patreon.com/posts/hidah-...

🚨 We woke up to a horrifying massacre this morning — committed in the name of “aid.” Starving people were lured with the promise of food, only to be bombed in cold blood. Over 50 martyrs in Khan Younis,many more injured. How much more can humanity endure? Support please: gofund.me/e6740048

Kyrgyz authorities are conducting anti-migrant raids across Bishkek today, targeting South Asian workers from India, Pakistan and Bangladesh, many of whom work in the textile industry The criminalization of migration is truly global

Israel is quickly trying to normalize a new and unimaginable form of depravity: mass-murdering aid-seekers. Al Jazeera reports at least 31 more people were killed and 200 injured by IDF drones and tanks this morning. Do not become numb to this atrocity. aje.io/535re2

In 1992, the Israeli philosopher Yeshayahu Leibowitz was asked to comment on his use of the term 'judeo-nazi' to describe the politics that was being normalised at the highest levels of the Israeli state. He was challenged on this. This was his response. 🧵 youtu.be/YzSZrvDFQ9M?...

Follow @lromeranth.bsky.social for assorted lucid takes, but also for this exposition of recursive antisemitism. Amid the histrionic abuse of Jewish memory to justify & shield everything across the board, from Western to Israeli fascism, we need all the tools to dismantle and unpack the discourse.

So much is being normalised by Israel's impunity. I don't know of any other context where one side of negotiations is publicly asking for the destruction of the other side as a precondition for the negotiation. It's Orwellian in its twistedness. 🧵

In his first live interview since his release from ICE detention, Palestinian activist @mohsenofpalestine.bsky.social reflects on the "interconnectedness between injustices."

Doikayt Now! @mollycrabapple.bsky.social joins @ayoub.bsky.social to talk about the Bund and how their concept of ‘Hereness’ can help us build a better world than the hellscape being proposed by techno-dystopianism and end-time fascism. @fromtheperiphery.com More info below

The lesson — the lesson — is: protect everyone from first to last, from least to greatest. There is not going to be a right moment later. The time is always now.
