Charles Pillsbury spoke to AJ+ about his call to boycott Pillsbury and its products because its parent company is benefiting from Israel's war crimes.

Increasing money for policing is kinda like getting bigger buckets for a leak inside your home but never going on the roof to analyze the problem. We say the bucket isn’t working, it’s overflowing, has holes, we fall over it.

People respond, “You just want my house to flood!?”

On the 'warning' Israel provides. Or rather running orders.

Access to affordable housing is an effective policy response to so many forms of violence.

Pls don’t schedule assessments & evaluations on or around Eid-ul-Fitr, May 12,13 & 14th-it’s the equivalent of asking students to study for & write assessments on X-mas eve, X-mas & Boxing Day. Muslim students may not know how to advocate for themselves- be culturally responsive

remember when the western world lost their collective damn minds because the roof of the notre-dame burned down? al aqsa is at least 100 years older than the cathedral. @ historians i can’t hear you ����

Reminder that Yang’s “universal basic income” is $2,000 for an entire year, ONLY for the poorest 6% of New Yorkers, while defunding social services the poorest New Yorkers need the most.

Concerned by colleagues teaching students that race & ethnicity are objectively separate phenomena based on shallow dictionary definitions despite infinite evidence that these concepts coarticulate in various ways globally depending on the context

If you are producing podcasts on critical scholarship re. current affairs and want them transcribed while being able to reimburse, please reach out to me? I’m looking for work & need to get back on my feet in case I don’t make it to any PhD school this year. Please RT? Thank you!

"When people tell me that intersectionality marginalizes class, I say no, intersectionality is what we need to understand why it’s been so difficult to mount a fully class-centric movement."

For my non-Texans, it’s hard to convey how f’d our state is. It’s barely broken freezing since Sunday. Half of Austin has been almost entirely w/out heat or power for 2.5 days. Water pressure is dropping and there’s a boil notice but half the city has no power to boil. Thread🧵⤵️

SPREAD THE WORD: The number of people being admitted to local hospitals for carbon monoxide poisoning is rising at a disturbing rate. Do NOT bring any outdoor appliances (grills, etc.) inside, or run your car inside the garage. Stay safe.
