Just a few years ago, stores required their customers to wear masks. Now some businesses are banning them.

Pro-Palestine groups had planned a silent demonstration, but students began shouting when Paxson said, “Sadly we can’t control what happens around the world and across the country. We’re powerless to do everything we’d like to do. But there’s so much that we are doing—”

At a vigil for a Brown University Palestinian student who was shot Saturday, students shouted Pres. Christina Paxson off the podium with calls for divestment in what was an unplanned disruption.

My latest in @thenation :

[The Nation @thenation]

At a vigil for junior Hisham Awartani, student protesters called on Brown University to divest its endowment from companies that supply military equipment and weapons to Israel. “One of our classmates has been shot. What will it take for Brown to respond?”

In hospitals with chronic understaffing, many #nurses burn out. They quit. They mourn the care they could have provided, & carry that grief home with them.

In response, more states are considering a controversial policy solution: minimum nurse-to-patient ratios.

My latest ⬇️

[Basil Awartani @AwartaniBasil]

My cousin @HishamAwartani, a Palestinian student at @BrownUniversity has been shot walking with his friends for simply wearing a keffiyeh and speaking Arabic.

Dangerous and dehumanizing rhetoric regurgitated by US politicians and right wing pundits has consequences.

After occupying University Hall at Brown, all 20 protesters with Jews for Ceasefire Now were arrested and charged with trespassing. “These are kids. And this was a perfect example of a non-violent civil disobedience.”

Many believe public defenders are free for those who can’t afford an attorney. But it most states that’s not necessarily the case.

Read my new article in @thenation ⬇️

[The Nation @thenation]

Approximately 40 states allow courts to charge for the use of a public defender, acting as an additional punishment for many who simply cannot afford to pay. Around 80 percent of defendants in the U.S. qualify for a court-appointed attorney.
