Please read this amazing essay by my dear friend Saher Safi, who discusses his childhood in Bureij Refugee Camp, Gaza, and the pain of now witnessing genocide. Saher worked for months on this essay, which was a difficult process for him. He ended up producing some exceptionally powerful writing.

Powerful letter by our Chairperson Zoë Lawlor @zazafl.bsky.social in yesterday's Irish Examiner. We need immediate sanctions on apartheid Israel to protect Palestinians from its genocide. #EndIsraeliImpunity #GazaGenocide

Don't give your money to NGOs, politicians, or online pundits. Please donate instead directly to Gaza. Below is a link to the Sameer Project's South Gaza Campaign, which urgently needs support:

It's a pretty boring spot. Happy to see you on here.

Here is another longform essay dealing with Zionist genocide and higher education that I hope you will find useful: "The Meaning of Honesty in Academe"

New essay:

No Resurrection: The Life and Death of the Modern University

This Monday at Villanova University.

Here's a link with information about the Baldwin Lecture at UMass:

Dear friends in Philly and Western Mass:

I have two upcoming events. Come say hello if you're around.

--Villanova U, Monday April 14: "No Resurrection: The Life and Death of the Modern University"

--UMass, Wednesday April 16 (James Baldwin Lecture): "The Meaning of Honesty in Academe"

Everything the Israelis have used to justify genocide--schools as weapons depots, hospitals as Hamas bases, incinerated babies, the mass rape event--proved to be a straight-out lie. Don't even entertain the bullshit from here on out and just automatically disbelieve whatever they say, instead.

Israeli almost certainly killed hundreds like this. They are putting out stories now and then about small numbers to test how the public reacts so they can test the waters for when it all comes out.
