And a third time at a Black woman. I understand and deeply know why this is an impossible situation. I know we must handle this with grace and continue to push through. But what made the situation worse was the throw away apology of "if you were offended"

A new @NewYorker piece about perfectionism, rug weavers, self-conscious subway reading, messy therapy, & the superego as a "vicious soliloquist w/ an audience of one." https://t.co/JO7CHbMDE5

This isn't a thread about the genocide in Gaza.

It's a thread about a likely genocide somewhere else: Ethiopia. But please don't scroll on and ignore it. This story deserves amplification.

[Al Jazeera English @AJEnglish]

In an Instagram video, Scotland’s ex-First Minister Humza Yousaf and his wife say their relatives in Gaza—including a baby—are being deliberately starved, urgently calling for borders to open and aid to be allowed through.

For this, Weekend Interview #5, we went back to #1, Elon Musk, and his rejection of HIV prevention being disrupted by US funding cuts. If it was true, he said, ‘I will fix it’

Blue Bottle workers in California are unionizing.

The Bay Area Blue Bottle Independent Union (@BBIUnion) is launching at four stores.

They're fighting for better conditions. Blue Bottle workers barely get by while Nestle—Blue Bottle’s owner—rakes in hundreds of billions a year.

@jasonhickel What a wonderful resource! Thank you for pulling this together! I’m sure this is too late, but I feel compelled to share David Graeber’s view on the term inequality as I agree with what he is saying: are we missing an opportunity to create meaningful change by using such a term?

[Jason Hickel @jasonhickel]

Hi everyone, I'm excited to announce this new project: a website dedicated to research and data on imperialism and inequality. You're going to love this... (links in thread below):

[ProPublica @propublica]

1/ It’s been almost 27 years since Nike’s co-founder Phil Knight acknowledged the company's products had become synonymous with “slave wages.”

While investigating Nike’s claims about sustainability, we found that workers’ experiences cast doubt on Nike’s commitment to reform. 🧵

Free school lunches for children is such a no brainer to me. It is very much in everyone's interests to have children's brains develop properly

[Auschwitz Memorial @AuschwitzMuseum]

Auschwitz was at the end of a long process. We must remember that it did not start from gas chambers.

This hatred was gradually developed by humans. From ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder.

Auschwitz took time.
