The @LemkinInstitute reminds the world that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu @IsraeliPM is a genocidaire.
Israel is a genocidal state supported by a genocidal society.
This means that the genocidal killing of Palestinian and now Lebanese people will continue to spread. It will not stop on its own.
The world has a responsibility to protect life, including Arab life. Walking out of Netanyahu’s speech at the @UN is not enough. There must be action.
The USA @POTUS is particularly to blame for this horrific state of affairs. It must act immediately and effectively to stop Israel. And it must stop with the pretense. The world knows exactly what is going on.
Academics love talking your ear off about their work & I am no exception. Tune in @NewBooksNetwork and @NewBooksAnthro if you also wanted the TL;DR podcast version🎙️for my ethnography about urban inequality and the criminalization of the urban poor in 🇲🇦

I had a lot of fun working with the AnthroArt collective & Margherita Miani, the illustrator👩🎨 that brought color to my ethnography on the risks of green washing through urban upgrading projects in Morocco. https://t.co/R8HDPIxusK

The unchecked privilege of this message to the wider #Harvard community is equal to 💩
You know what would actually be painful? Seeing your home & every educational infrastructure razed to the ground, while everyone you know is either dead or dying

Janet Abu Lughod was called provocative for labelling 🇫🇷colonial planning in🇲🇦 Urban Apartheid. To pretend the genealogy of besieged Gaza does not stretch back to the Venice Ghetto, whence it was exported to settler colonial projects across the new world, is pure white ignorance
TODAY is #StrikeForGaza & we continue to amplify the voices that are silenced by the increasingly right-leaning structures of power that govern public spaces and our universities in the Global North. Follow our thematic thread #FramingGaza.

Urbicide in #Gaza ,the systematic murder of the city, does not halt at human beings, animals, plants, buildings and vital infrastructures. It contaminates the city's underground, flooding it with sea water. And devours its archives and memories. The declared goal is annihilation.
The capitalist world economy has never been epitomised by skyscrapers in Manhattan or London, but by coltan mines in the DRC and bombed-out refugee camps in Gaza—places where people are exploited and dispossessed in order to maintain regimes of accumulation and imperial hegemony.

My students get impatient when I insist that language matters. That words have the power to build or tear down worlds, to illuminate truths or distort meanings. To render some lives & bodies as worthy of compassion and others as mere demographics.

MESA calls upon @POTUS and the US government to demand an immediate and permanent ceasefire in Gaza, the immediate and unconditional lifting of the siege on the Gaza Strip, and the prevention of human rights abuses in the West Bank and East Jerusalem.
