I'm kind of sick and tired of seeing privileged (mostly male) senior scholars take advantage of their own privileged positions to mainstream and normalise the far right, seemingly without any shame (or consequences). Your work is harming us all (collectively, societally, and within the discipline).

Full rights and citizenship actually means they’re not a “foreign labor class.” And that’s what he’s angry about. He’s mad citizenship is universal rather than restricted to white people like before the civil war bsky.app/profile/gbbr...

It's always a good idea to take migration scholars/activists seriously Remember when we were told that Trump's "mass deportation" agenda would usher in a police state? That terrorizing "migrants" was not going to end with those put in this state category? That acting in solidarity was urgent?

Labels can impact politics.
