Having lived in a war (although briefly compared to others), and having heard the sound of sirens warning of impending doom, fear stays in our beings and senses, even years later.

Deep compassion and patience are needed to help heal souls.

Academic job is just a job, which is “a part” of our lives.

Being unhoused is not a choice, allowing unhoused folks to freeze to death is. Don’t get it twisted. Poor policy choices can kill folks.

This sort of racist anti-Asian linguistic mocking/mimicking is unacceptable in the playground, workplace, and at the academy. @PurdueNorthwest — You are injuring Asian and Asian American students, and attempting to humiliate their culture. You bring shame to your institution.

I want a Hallmark movie about a woman who dumps her bigoted small-town boyfriend, moves to a big city, lands a dream job and discovers the magic of Christmas by living in community with people of different creeds and cultures.

Toronto’s #Iranian community showing their strength today. The city is home to the 2nd largest Iranian diaspora in the world and you can see it today.

People are still pouring onto the grass from Yonge St in solidarity with #IranRevolution2022 & #Mahsa_Amini

Raisi doesn’t show up to interview with CNN after Christiane Amanpour refuses to put on regime’s Hijab. Iran regime’s President seems to think he can impose the Hijab in NYC too. #MahsaAmini #مهساامینی

Never forget that glorifying resilience instead of dismantling the oppressive structures that force people to be resilient in the first place...is in itself, a form of oppression.
