Today Israel killed the Palestinian journalist who did this interview. Wafa was directly targeted by an Israeli air strike on her home in central Gaza. She was killed along with her husband and two children.

Columbia Public Safety literally sells bike locks just like this one to students.

“They can suspend every single one of us and we’ll still be here.”

“They can put us in jail. We’ll come back and pitch a tent again.”

This is the kind of militancy and dedication I like to see 👏👏👏

@manipulanda in my v personal experience my last name is rare/dying out/signifies a p specific identity/history etc., so I would keep it and in my ideal world my kids would also have it. So ig, consider if one person has a last name that feels somehow “more important” to conserve/pass on ?

psychiatry pathologizes action as sane or insane depending on how it relates to the interests of power — in the American imagination it’s illness to choose to die to protest the violence of war, and perfectly sane to choose to die in service of the violence of war

I can't believing I'm saying this, but Aaron Bushnell's last words were just read live on CNN.

🚨HAPPENING NOW: @ucdavis passed a resolution in favor of BDS, refusing to spend any of the $20 million @ASUCDofficial budget on companies from the BDS list. They are the first US college to do so. A historic movement win for @sjpucsd https://t.co/2tUdbRGVan

every single day, every single day for the past 5 months, a new headline describing another crime so obscene, sadistic, and piggish—and yet also so petty, blind, hollow—that it once again alters my whole picture of the world permanently

[Ihab Hassan @IhabHassane]

A substantial crowd of extremist Israelis are heading to the Nitzana Border Crossing with Egypt to prevent aid trucks from entering Gaza. I don't know the extent of evil and sickness in a person who tries to starve another human being and finds joy in watching them die.
