Movies and TV series directed by Mamdani's Mum, Mira Nair. The only one I haven't seen is The Namesake. I think? Might have on Film4 or Channel 4? 2006. Don't think I've seen it. www.imdb.com/title/tt0433... x.com/TheCineprism...

On my dog walk I often chat with right wingers. I pretend I am an ex-Reform voter put off by the utter fuck up of our county council. Then they see me as one of their own, don't get defensive and shouty, and start to question their own opinion of Reform. Honey, not vinegar.

For two years, our team of journalists in Gaza illuminated what Israel sought to keep hidden, while enduring the very displacement, starvation, and loss that they reported on. This is the genocide through their eyes: An illustrated timeline. www.972mag.com/the-genocide...

I don't think I've seen much news from Gaza this week. Seeing commentary and reports though. New from B'Tselem, "Welcome To Hell" www.btselem.org/publications... x.com/btselem/stat...

Her work blocks erasure, centering Middle Eastern voices often excluded from Western art spaces. Whether painting or sculpting, Rama fuses tenderness with defiance, her activism lives in texture & form, bridging diaspora & belonging while redefining what resistance looks like. Incredible artist.

Mamdani’s wife, Rama Duwaji, merges art & activism with fearless precision. A Syrian-American illustrator, animator, & ceramicist, she explores displacement, memory, & identity through vivid symbolism & cultural storytelling, using every brushstroke as political & personal testimony.

Btw taking the moment to adore the stunning new First Lady of New York City 🖤 Also the youngest in the city’s history. Rama Duwaji - an animator and illustrator originally from Damascus, who also enjoys ceramics. She also designed Mamdani’s campaign slogans.

'This is Rama Duwaji. A Syrian illustrator and animator, and a freaking cool human being. She's also married to Zohran Mamdani. "Using art as a tool to speak up against oppression and fight for liberation" 👏👏👏' x.com/showgirl1303...

Hi stargazers! Look for the bright, round full #moon rising in the east around sunset tonight. It’ll be visible all night. This is the Northern Hemisphere’s #HuntersMoon, the full moon after the Harvest Moon. It's also the 2nd of 4 #supermoons in a row. 🌕🌌🔭 buff.ly/rz4FJAb 📸 EarthSky.org.

If in doubt, invoke transphobia. Same playbook as Tories. It's how we ended up with the Rwanda plan. Boris Johnson didn't want partygate on the front pages so he got Priti Patel to push the Rwanda plan. It was never supposed to happen. Then they turned it into a scam anyway. x.com/DropSiteNews...

Yesterday, someone asked Grok to identify Mamdani in a photo of him greeting a small group of people. It was a side profile of him. Grok 'couldn't' recognise him. I cropped the picture and asked who it was. Grok 'recognised' him. It's all over the place. x.com/Heccles94/st...

I just want to post stuff about Mamdani. 😭😂 He's an Arsenal fan, like Corbyn, I just found out. That's alright, I can allow that.

As a Muslim, at a time of division Mamdani has brought much of his city together. He spoke for Mexican abuelas & Ethiopian aunties. “No longer would politics be something that is done to us. Now, it is something that we do”. It is shameful that not one of our UK leaders has been able to do the same.

Justice wins when people rise, organize, unite, and MOVE,TOGETHER. If it can happen in NY, it can happen anywhere: Italy, Germany, UK, everywhere hearts still beat for freedom. A just, free, and loving world is possible. Let's imagine it today, so we can walk within it tomorrow. - Francesca Albanese

Congratulations to @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social! You ignited a grassroots campaign, built on the radical idea that everyone deserves to live in dignity. This is a seismic victory — not only for the people of New York, but for all those who believe that humanity & hope can prevail.

I said from the start: everything that's wrong in the world has come together over Palestine. x.com/KerryBurgess...

BBC forgot to call him an 'activist'. #BBCQT They went with 'organiser'. 😂 The campaign video was NOT in Urdu. It was in Arabic. What to know about Zohran Mamdani and what he wants to do in NYC www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Zohran's campaign was his determination to make New York a city everyone can afford to live in. Huge congratulations! His success will resonate throughout the world. A story where no one is left behind. It's time to write that story across England & Wales too.

Wonder how that happened. What a mystery. 🙄 Almost as if letting covid rip, doing nothing to inform the public, in fact doing the opposite and lying to everyone, was wrong. Britain sliding 'into economic crisis' over £85bn sickness bill, ex-John Lewis boss warns www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

'Zionists are hysterical over Mamdani’s decisive victory because it shows you can in fact say Israel shouldn’t exist as a Jewish supremacist state and become mayor of one of the world’s greatest cities, and because their Islamophobia didn’t work. Times are changing.' x.com/JeninYounesE...
