Had *the* @alexispauline.bsky.social deliver a zoom oracle for my School in early pandemic days—for a meager honorarium. That memory is such a blessing!

"We separate people from their kids. Tackle as many of them as possible. Zip-tie their toddlers and grandparents. And stand around looking tough. We look so tough. Increasingly, we also really need to take dumps."

🙌🏻🙌🏻

This looks amazing!

Greta Thunberg: "I could talk for a very, very long time about our mistreatment and abuses in our imprisonment. Trust me. But that is not the story. What happened here was Israel… continuing to worsen and escalate their genocide and mass destruction with genocidal intent, attempting to erase an...

James Baldwin to Angela Davis in 1970, discussing white Americans:

I have a full day today, but I woke up early to put this edition of my newsletter together because I need you all to have this rundown of what we've been up against this week in Chicago as the federal assault on our city continues. To ignore these developments would be a damning mistake for us all.

This young person has gotten multiple warnings from state cops for defiantly moving into the street while most of the crowd has been pushed into “first amendment zones” on the sidewalk. Someone is playing “Springtime for Hitler” through a loudspeaker.

On the ground at Broadview. One arrest and state police with batons are pushing people out of the street.

Influencers Are Being Paid $7K Per Post to Boost Pro-Israel Social Media Content

“more separation between her and Biden on Gaza” is such bullshit. If the cop actually cared, she’d be using her status to defend protesters.

American intelligence officials have now confirmed to CBS News that Netanyahu ordered the drone attacks on the Sumud flotilla while it was docked in Tunisia, an attack launched from Israeli Navy submarines off the Tunisian coast.

Reminds me that there is also a category of men who have sex with men (thanks public health colleagues!). As I understand it, the practice isn’t exactly gay, but is certainly a bit queer, though often under duress. Like in a frozen expedition!

Snapped this pic of DHS conferring with the IL state police just before ICE attacked the crowd, while state and county police assisted them. ICE said, "This is your first and only warning" and then instantly attacked. We were not in the road at that time. They just wanted to assault us and film it.

Please amplify this demand. We need y'all. I was there. We were not in the road. ICE simply let loose on us to film themselves brutalizing and arresting protesters—and state police assisted them. They brought charges against scattered people to create a pretext for this inexcusable violence.

All charges brought against protesters at Broadview today must be dropped. When cops and agents attack crowds without provocation, they make shit up to justify their attacks (in his case, an attack waged on a cooperative crowd to produce fascist social media content). These charges must be dropped.

This is who @emanabdelhadi.bsky.social is. Brilliant. Fearless. I fucking hate typing this shit out: Free Eman.

Amplify amplify amplify please.

These fascists have taken my friend, Palestinian scholar and feminist @emanabdelhadi.bsky.social into custody.

🚨🚨 My dear friend and fellow academic, the Palestinian American sociologist @emanabdelhadi.bsky.social has been taken by the Cook County Sheriff near Chicago. They have not mirandized her. Please signal boost. All eyes on Broadview for Eman and the community she was defending 🚨🚨

We will be holding a CaRNiVAL of UnLEaRnING to launch my new book in Durham on November 2, 2-5 p.m. Come for the whack-a-mole, stay for the community building towards radical change! Other events to be announced soon! More information here: www.lewispants.com

All respect to the somewhat younger Professor here…but I distinctly remember fighting over an SNES game circa 1990 (probably titled “Desert Storm” or some bs) with friends because the tanks were cool

Class consolidation.

Not Jess La Bambolera!! 🤣😂🤣
