MLK, Malcom, Milk, Fred Hampton . . . The U.S. has a terrible record of assassinated civil rights leaders. One you may not have heard of is Alex Odeh – a Palestinian American activist killed in 1985. Learn more about his story, contribute, share . . . https://t.co/CnTIw1I2rU
Congrats to Professors @josder and @wyoumans! They've been accepted to pitch their film, "Who Killed Alex Odeh?" at Gotham Film Week in September. Learn more about the film here: https://t.co/PEdGA21Igj #SMPAproud
@wyoumans Now, do half caff on the remaining half. Zero caffeine is the way to go. You actually feel less tired all the time. (unpopular opinion, but I don't check in here much, so let me have it.)
@wyoumans Fair, but the Comey announcement was literally nothing, and it changed the news cycle and (bonus) had the air of sex about it. Clinton was paranoid to the point of her own detriment, but then, is it paranoia if there really is a vast right-wing conspiracy trying to destroy you?
@wyoumans If the worst of the Hillary's emails story is true, she . . . used a more secure server than available at the state department. You seem to be applying reality, my friend . . . not the applicable standard.
@wyoumans The effect of appearing to reproduce qualities of the historical world in film provides a key element of our fascination with film and its digital offspring, but it also can lead us to assume more about the validity of a film’s claims than we should.
@BellCV Literally teaching Riefenstahl next week. Saw this video, and I am like: how can I not? (Those who don't know their history . . . something something . . .)
