This is a brilliant essay on narrative by Isabella Hammad, which she delivered in late September as the Edward Said Memorial Lecture and published in late October. I admire her prose and her ideas so much. theparisreview.org/blog/2023/10/2…


Absolutely pleasure to read.

I wrote about our intifada @MIT and the political economy of divestment. thetech.com/2024/06/13/sol…



jstor.org/stable/4047449 To all the friends graduating, I recommend reading this commencement speech that Edward Said gave in 1999 at American University in Cairo. It is eerily relevant today as it was back then despite being delivered at a university many thousands of miles away.

Something that won’t make headlines: local anti-genocide encampment @ MIT welcomes pro-Israel counterprotesters into camp, feeds them and gives them space to sit undisturbed (again). At this rate, maybe we should up our meal order requests? More info: mitsage.org

Spent the afternoon at the MIT encampment. It was a wonderful experience, seeing students and allies enjoying each other's company, studying schoolwork, and teaching each other movement advocacy skills. They were extraordinarily appreciate of support from faculty, aluns & allies.

Memorial to the Palestinian journalists killed by Israel, outside the White House Correspondents Dinner which is filled with the those who sponsor this slaughter and those who provide the propaganda for it.

In 1987, the MIT Coalition Against Apartheid protested against MIT's ties to apartheid South Africa by erecting a shantytown. Today, in the same location, students are protesting MIT's ties to genocide & apartheid in Palestine via the Scientists Against Genocide encampment. 🇵🇸

MIT Coalition for Palestine announces the start of Scientists Against Genocide encampment and will remain on Kresge Lawn until MIT meets demands to disclose and cut research ties with Israel, drop charges against student organizers, and call for a ceasefire!
