An Honest Living (memoir) now available in paperback from Fordham University Press. Jerry and Rodrigo Go to War (novel) now available from Common Notions Press.

My book An Honest Living is now available. It’s about the ostracism and loneliness and alienation (and vitality and joy and regeneration) that comes of being loyal to the oppressed and downtrodden of this world.

@ctizzie He's the perfect Madison, Wisconsin, liberal (derogatory).

@ctizzie People are praising this as a "proper apology," but its properness can only be validated if Naomi chooses NOT to cape for the next socdem loser who comes along. (Spoiler: she'll cape for the next socdem loser to come along, and the one after that.)

I'm so mad about how they're being treated by this rotten country but it's very heartening to see how Mexico has embraced them. The far superior North American nation.

@Dystopiantics thank you, brother

"As we see our relations being collected in garbage bags, we also see the earnest arbiters of acceptable discourse holding forth about the unfortunate crudeness (or worse) with which some Palestinians are choosing to express themselves.  Our prior reticence to speak has again been validated in retrospect... When we say 'Israeli,' they hear 'Jew.'  When we say 'Zionist,' they also hear 'Jew.'  But if we say 'Jew,' then we are making bigoted conflations.  We didn’t choose to eschew representations of Jewishness and Jewish culture.  Zionists deliberately made them off-limits to us" –– A stunning personal reflection by @stevesalaita https://t.co/PZj6cRfBQh

@starsalwayslost I saw this lol. Incredible (i.e., completely predictable).

[Steven Salaita @stevesalaita]

This essay is my way of exploring the current debates about the relationship between Jewishness and Zionism.

I’m already over a quarter of the way to my goal. The longer it takes the more I’ll have to spend paying for a place to stay, I need help getting this done before it’s just too late for me to turn things around => https://t.co/rGcaviYB6A

[Steven Salaita @stevesalaita]

This is a compelling and poignant essay and I hope you'll set aside a few moments to read and reflect on it.
