I can’t believe Asad Haider has passed away. His book Mistaken Identity from 2018 on how identity politics is a neoliberal construction to neutralize anti racism and progressive movements was so cynically maligned by some real humanities grifters.. We needed his voice. RIP. What a loss

Nos ha dejado Asad Haider, una mente brillante, militante socialista y uno de los fundadores y editores de la revista Viewpoint Magazine Rest in Power 💔
