Hey, Twitter. Been awhile. Took a hiatus to learn the true meaning of having my hands full, but back to work at @AJEPodcasts today & ready to dive in. What’d I miss (other than everyone’s reconsidering being on here in the first place)? And what stories do you want to hear?
Hoy intento desgranar para oídos internacionales el carácter profundamente político de la riada en València: del boom del ladrillo a la gestión de emergencias. Muchas gracias @amalhotra2 y @anima_tk por la producción, @mmbilal por la entrevista y @locke por la confianza.
The deadly floods in Spain have revealed a deeper crisis as public outrage grows over government mismanagement in Valencia. 🎧 #TheTake's @mmbilal and @bartoleiros discuss the impact of the floods: youtu.be/nOAfrM8wSFY
ALERT: Two South African journalists, Bongani Siziba and Sbonelo Mkhasibe, working @NewsCentralTV are missing in Mozambique. They were apparently detained while covering the protests in Maputo, and have since been incommunicado.
It’s important to note that this headline makes it sound like a lot of Muslims are surprised but the article only quotes the founder and cofounder of a group called “Muslims for Trump”, so… yeah. Face eating jaguar party etc.
Eighteen years ago today, @ajenglish went on air. I am still proud to be working for one of the best news networks in the world - and the incredible people I have had the opportunity to work with around the word
Reports of suicide and sexual violence in Sudan show the price women are paying as rape is used as a weapon of war. 🎧 On #TheTake, @mmbilal hears from @Refugees’s @DominiqueHyde about the impact of the atrocities: youtu.be/H46ZqZZ_yIY
We've completed our short film about Hamzah Furqani, the incarcerated man in California who gave his full paycheck to Gaza. Now that we're submitting to festivals, we're asking supporters to join our newsletter to help us promote future screenings. mailchi.mp/1e2bef7e9297/1…
How is it possible that our reality is this much more absurd than Veep
here’s pete hegseth, fox news host and trump’s pick for secretary of defense, nearly killing a drummer with an axe on live TV
Any time any of these people express their rightful concerns about a potential Trump crackdown on democracy, they need to be reminded that they were willing to hand him the tools to conduct such a crackdown on a silver platter.
Hey journalism students! The @AP is now accepting applications for its paid, four-month global news internship program. Locations this year include NYC, LA, and D.C., as well as Japan, London and Cairo. Find a list of internship roles here: careers.ap.org/go/View-All-Jo…
this is the funniest tweet i've ever read
California Gov. Gavin Newsom seen carrying his own bag to economy section on Alaska Airlines flight, fueling 2028 presidential speculation — POLITICO
NEW: The Biden administration confirms Israel will face no policy consequences for the lack of aid getting into Gaza following Blinken’s threat to potentially withdraw military assistance if key demands aren’t met in 30 days (in a letter sent days before the US election)
We talked to @samar42 for our series on the past, present, and future of the War on Terror @AJEPodcasts — the story that leads this episode always stuck with me. aljazeera.com/podcasts/2021/…
Finally, @samar42 brings us the book on the Forever War we always needed -- one that takes as its point of departure the global south states that do most of the work of violence. sup.org/books/politics…
Black immigrants exists. For some, the idea of escaping the danger of their home nation, in this case Haiti, meant abandoning ambitions of making to the U.S. in favor of building a life in Mexico. They face anti-Blackness and more. See for yourself.
Western media see Anne Frank in a rampaging mob chanting for genocide and celebrating the murder of more than 17,000 children as Israel turns Gaza into the Warsaw Ghetto... My take on UEFA and Europe's cognitive dissonance @AJEPodcasts omny.fm/shows/the-take…
What will the Trump administration mean for Gaza and the Middle East? 🎧 #TheTake's @mmbilal hears from @USMEP president Daniel Levy: youtu.be/WdxAPuSoSOk
Now that the election is behind us, if I may recommend some nonpolitical viewing. One of the PBS films I hosted is out! We tell the story of a man who was brought to Maryland as a slave… and whose portrait now hangs in the Philly art museum. m.youtube.com/watch?v=sGbrp5…
Amsterdam city council member says ‘Maccabi hooligans’ instigated the violence and attacked Palestinian supporters. @AJEnglish aljazeera.com/news/2024/11/8…
Who would have guessed lying about Biden’s cognitive health for 2 yrs, refusing to do an open convention for a new nominee, never mentioning public healthcare & embracing fracking, the Cheneys & a yr long slaughter of children in Gaza wouldn’t be a winning strategy? 1/
