This is literally the meaning of the word holocaust—“mass slaughter, especially by fire.” Arms Embargo, Divestment, Sanctions, The Hague— NOW!

This is Joe Biden’s legacy. Humans being literally burned alive by US weapons after a full year of never-ending atrocities.

Standing in solidarity with those who face the ongoing erasure of Palestinian voices. As educators, we must challenge the racism and silencing within academia and speak out against the conflation of anti-Zionism with antisemitism. Read full article by @FakhreddineHuda in @lithub

“How difficult and treacherous our paths are, always, within this country and its institutions.” @FakhreddineHuda on being an Arabic literature professor in a time of genocide. lithub.com/intifada-on-be…

The PFC rejects the weaponization of identity politics & the co-optation of radical frameworks rooted in struggles against state apparatuses. Liberal identity politics rely on white supremacist & imperialist violence to uphold the political agendas of the US ruling class.

There you have it! Penn's idea of a back to school welcome, handing over its faculty to the witch hunt. Shame! And the "crime" is trying to teaching poetry and literature with integrity in a time of جen0cide! mesana.org/advocacy/commi…

A very important volume recently published last year by Mada Al Carmel, the Arab Center for Applied Social Research: Zionism and Settler-Colonialism: Palestinian Approaches. A university press should translate to English and publish ASAP. Feel free to contact me for assistance.

Reminder for those in academe: make an effort to hire instructors who were suspended or fired for opposing Zionist genocide. Teach Palestine. Renounce apologists for "Israel." Invite scholars from Gaza to offer lectures and workshops. These too are forms of resistance.
