sooo writing this put me in an extremely dark place and I feel like my brain is broken watching every new Epstein revelation come out and nothing happens in response

The lesson here: you cannot be for and against US empire at the same time. You cannot speak out against it and also accept accolades from it.

wrote about the supernatural stories mom claims to have experienced. for me, it's about how people remember the young girls killed by poverty and patriarchy

Harvard has BANNED over 100 faculty and students from campus libraries over @HarvardOOP ‘s study-ins for Palestine and divestment

[Momodou ✊🏿 @MomodouTaal]

Update:

The VP of student and campus life, Ryan Lombardi, rejected my appeal after one business day. This demonstrates once again that my ability to stay in this country is being hastily handled without due process in a continued attempt to silence me.

I have until 5pm tomorrow to appeal to the provost. If the provost rejects this appeal, then I believe my withdrawal will be processed and I will promptly have to leave the country.

Once again, there has been no investigation, nor have I had a chance to even respond to the allegations against me. I maintain that all my actions have been peaceful and in accordance with my First Amendment rights.

This is a deliberate targeting of a Black Muslim student at an institution where those two identities are increasingly unwelcome. When it comes to Palestine the university will abandon all commitments to academic freedom and free speech to protect its corporate interests.
