I really enjoyed reading this piece! “Not seeing the forest for the helicopters: UNESCO recognition and resistance to the US military in Okinawa” in Social Movement Studies: www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.... @cnwillis.bsky.social

As I prepare for teaching, I realize what a great resource this is, with so many excellent chapters by experts in the field--get it for your university library if they don+t have it already: www.routledge.com/Routledge-Ha...

the world is a scary place rn

good God almighty...this guy clearly needs humanities more than he will ever know one of the most innovative scientists I know spend their spare time reading the classics, ancient history, playing and listening to music...

Miles de personas marchan en Chile para denunciar las cientos de muertes por hambre que se han registrado en la Franja de Gaza, territorio devastado por la acción militar israelí y bloqueado para recibir la ayuda humanitaria que requiere.

I know he thinks he is God, but he isn't He is insane though

Francesca Albanese will be remembered as one of the bravest women of the era, standing against genocide despite the daunting forces arrayed against her. Sanctioning her, rather than the war criminals who are starving and murdering Palestinians is another moment of shame for the US trib.al/Oe77sph

At the University of Edinburgh graduation ceremony, students staged a walkout to protest the institution’s complicity in genocide and the starvation of children in Gaza #FreePalestine 🇵🇸

tfw it's a beautiful spring day in the mountains and you decide to establish a: Gaza Solidarity Encampment at the Scottish Parliament in Edinburgh! Get out your notebook and write your demands on lined paper Arms Embargo Financial Divestment Academic Boycott Liberation link: x.com/PeruginiNic/...

I’m graduating today from Masters in Playwriting, which is exciting! But it also felt necessary to use this occasion to flag up the need for divestment on Palestine and the climate crisis, so myself and coursemates have written to Edinburgh University management and University Court this morning.

Trump's mass firing of diplomats and state department workers, + relentless targeting of the people who place food on US tables, + all of his hateful policies will hopefully very soon come back to bite him--I hope the people who voted for him will recognize what they have done + be smarter next time

No ICE, ICE, BABY More Americans are thinking chinga la migra: goodauthority.org/news/america...

Democrats posing with war criminals, I hope they are all voted out and lose their seats. They belong in the Hague, not in Congress...

Listen to my radio interview with the Latino Media Collective talking about my book "Immigration Realities;" immigrant detention, and face-covered agents in the streets acting with no accountability.  https://latinomediacollective.com/2025/06/06/june-6th-2025-immigrant-realities/

I'm very happy that @jacobinlat.bsky.social translated my @jacobinmag.bsky.social article into Spanish. Just before the Foreign Affairs Council on Tuesday, it's good to recall the #EU role in enabling the crimes committed against ordinary Palestinians. jacobinlat.com/2025/06/euro...

It was never "complicated"

Check out this important piece about the people making money from virtual and physical immigrant detention, who used to mainly profit from running private prisons.

40 years ago tonight in Auckland, New Zealand (July 10, local time), French secret agents—in an elaborate covert operation codenamed Satanique—used two limpet mines to sink the Greenpeace flagship Rainbow Warrior before it could return to Mururoa Atoll to protest French nuclear testing there.

I thought this would happen about nine years ago, but finally Jeremy Corbyn and Zarah Sultana are co-founding a new party. There is hardly anything left of Labour worthy of its name anyway, and what there is will hopefully cut loose and join the new initiative. The stakes are so so high for so many.

My God. Please make sure everyone you know knows this.

There is not a single person in the Democratic Party who is treating the death of USAID with the gravity it deserves. There’s no political issue more important than the death of 14 million people, but they’re just delivering boilerplate condemnations and nothing more.

AOC: "On this point of tax on tips, as one of the only people in this body who has lived off of tips, I want to tell you a little bit about the scam ... the cap on that is $25,000 while you're jacking up taxes on people who make less than $50,000 across the US ... while kicking them off the ACA."

This highlights the importance of state elections and how one position change can make a huge difference in people's lives. While pathways to change are largely closed at the federal level, there's still a lot to be done in states and cities where the majority of people live On, Wisconsin!

""Can I name someone whose work I respect who doesn't consider it genocide?" said Raz Segal, an Israeli genocide researcher at Stockton University in New Jersey. "No."" Even Once Reluctant Scholars Now Agree on Israel's Gaza Assault: It's a Genocide www.commondreams.org/news/israel-...

"The narrative of the cultural superiority of “the West” is central to White nationalism. It’s rooted in the assumption of superiority, which is, supposedly, under threat from non-Christian, non-White people. The “West in Decline”—is often a soft entry point into White nationalism & White supremacy"

A NYC candidate for mayor has called for reconsidering rent control in that city, while congressional Republicans are advancing a bill that would take a trillion dollars in health care away from working people all across America, but guess which one the pundits are all over right now?

Orban banned it, so even more people turned out

essentially, yes

It’s almost an art, being this relentlessly shitty. www.washingtonpost.com/education/20...
