Watching season 2 of High on the Hog on netflix and I can’t help but think it needs an episode on the impact of the Farm Bill on the history of African American communities and food/land. Especially given that we are up for a reauthorization of the bill.
We just received the devastating news that Refaat Alareer was killed today when Israeli forces bombed his sister’s home in #Gaza where he was staying. We are sending our condolences, love & light to Refaat’s family & all those who love him. Full statement: https://t.co/cvj4mcLEtE
The latest posts from Motaz, Bisan, Ismail Jood and more Palestinian journalists are heartbreaking. They have lost any hope of surviving.
They have done everything they could just to share what's happening with us while trying to survive a genocide. I have no words.
This was the intention all along. They want to displace Palestinian people. They want them off that land. White supremacy always presents solutions to problems they created themselves. PALESTINIAN DON'T WANT TO COME BE SECOND CLASS CITIZENS IN CANADA. THEY WANT TO BE PALESTINIAN.
On Day 197 of war in Sudan, a QUICK & DIRTY for those just joining:
- Began on April 15, 2023 between the Sudanese military (SAF) and the Rapid Support Forces (RSF), a militia-turned-legitimate force of the govt.
- Leaders: Burhan (SAF), Dagalo/Himedti (RSF)

Israeli bombing in #Gaza today destroyed the last remaining telecommunications links between Gaza and the outside world. We have lost all contact with AFSC staff and partners in Gaza. An immediate ceasefire is needed to bring this catastrophe to an end.

Western newspapers won’t tell you about the massacres committed by the Israeli army. Zionism is always justifiable—settlers can kill, kidnap & steal, as well as institutionally monopolize violence as if it’s a fact of nature. But dare a Palestinian resist…
Oof. Lol. I am triggered.
God only knows how many “thank you for asking that question” that I’ve gotten at meetings, conferences etc. after the showdown has happened. It is well
@KatieHerzig I hope you sleep well at night knowing how awesome “The Waking Sleep” is. Literally no skips on the whole album. And the instrumentals?? I’m screaming. *chefs kiss*.
