In these dark moments, I’m reminded of these words by Palestinian poet Najwan Darwish

i feel like everyone taking issue with the fact that he killed an ‘unrelated’ cop doesn’t understand that it wasn’t just that cop that killed his son. it is every cop who participates in the brutalization of black americans and allows others to, that killed his son.

all I can say is, you and me are one bad unforeseen circumstance away from being in their shoes.

I see myself in every human struggling to exist under the crushing weight of capitalism. (8/8

So excited to have a story published in @trampset! It's got the prairies, it's got being gay, the two things I will NEVER stop writing about.

Canadian police are on a fkn rampage right now. So tired of seeing these releases every day of someone new being murdered by pigs.

STOP CALLING THE POLICE.

I want you to stop making fun of our billion dollar corporate sponsor

Strange to finish a review of the Audre Lorde book after posting about how her silence on Palestine ended her friendship with June Jordan, only to have the same situation playing out with Black people online. I might write about the moral consequences that Jordan pointed to.

bangladesh successfully ousted a fascist dictator and the west thinks that peacefully marching down a street is revolutionary enough? stop allowing our fears of discomfort to override our need for revolution

No one is asking why it is so hard for the executives of universities to do what students, staff, and faculty are demanding: transparently disclose the institutions' investments in companies with ties to Israel; commit to divesting from genocide; respect civil rights. 1/

We have doubled in one day.

1,900+ UBC Alumni & Workers Stand with Student Encampment for Gaza

As Israel bombs Rafah, UBC must not choose genocide. Any university that claims to be reckoning with settler-colonialism, must not remain silent or complicit
