For my newsletter, I wrote about Dr. Ting's relationship with Jeffrey Epstein, the trans talk in the Epstein files, and how hard it is for trans people to talk about abuse.

I love when cis people of color mangle the language of anti-racism to justify being transphobic, it's very cool and totally not them being titanic garbage fires ignoring the struggles of non-white trans people :D

very excited to have my response included in the latest Boston Review forum against Democratic moderation! here it is, my best argument for why Dems shouldn't "moderate" on transgender rights & LGBTQ issues more generally (as they are inextricably linked): www.bostonreview.net/forum/how-no...

the number of academics who were in touch with Epstein really puts the (elite) backlash to Title IX's enforcement against sexual violence into perspective.
DiChristina also invited Epstein to attend an editorial meeting for the Scientific American, where she worked as editor-in-chief.
Correspondence from 2010 also showed DiChristina on a guest list for a meeting on “the islands,” though it was not immediately clear what Epstein meant by “islands.”

It feels worth saying that the thing that unifies men as disparate as Noam Chomsky, Deepak Chopra and Trump is patriarchy. Patriarchy, hatred of women, and the need to dominate them, persists across race and class status. Left movements refuse a robust analysis of persisting gender violence.

Oooh, not so easy to name a specific book overall. But I go back to the work of Barbara Smith and Silvia Federici (&social reproduction theory) a lot. Contemporaneously I'd say @taliabhatt.itch.io's books really resonate wrt gender / nation / race & are engagingly written but also v incisive

have been so grateful these last few weeks -- this last decade -- to have an understanding of patriarchy + its hypocrisies + operations. if you've never considered reading feminist theory, if you've intended to but not made time, this is the moment. the world will be made more clear if you do.

Congratulations to the six!
But also this really underlines the danger of long running periods of the UK govt imprisoning activists on remand while they sow malicious narratives about them in the media. Thank goodness they were all acquitted.

A truly hideous right wing smear campaign against these six activists for exercising their free speech rights to protest - and confronted with the evidence all six have been acquitted.

Feds gave Jeffrey Epstein a sweetheart deal when he was alive, let him die before facing trial, obstructed justice after his death, punished victims for demanding transparency, and are now trying to move on without addressing the vast corruption and abuse. THIS is how our “justice” system works.
