Dr. Mary T. Bassett is one of the bravest people I have met in my lifetime - her moral compass and commitment to justice are unmatched. Shame, shame, shame on Harvard. Her ouster is shocking yet unsurprising and on brand for the University.

Dr. Mary Bassett has been fired from her role as Director of Harvard's Center for Health and Human Rights for the sin of actually advocating for human rights. Harvard leadership apparently finds it intolerable that Palestinians might be considered human too.

We win together. Don’t let them divide you.
Amazing news: Princeton & its prosecutors pressed charges against 13 students for a pro-Palestine protest, then offered to dismiss charges against 12 if one, @aditilrao.bsky.social, pled guilty.
Instead, everyone held firm, and today the case was DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE & arrest record expunged!!!

Which is what identity politics as coined by the Combahee River Collective, was intended to do. Be the center of a critical politic that builds solidarity within and across identities that share that questioning of power, not a replacement for that critical politic.
Mamdani does what I've been calling constructive politics: appeals to identity as a building block of solidarity rather than a replacement for it. love to see it
Mamdani turned up at BAYO at Barclay Center yesterday and said he was going to fight to get Haiti off the travel ban and he said Haiti correctly

There's a lot to be said about identity, solidarity. But a simple place to start: the people who are willing to fight for their neighbors when their neighbors have different problems have a very, very good chance of having neighbors to fight with when you all share problems

Social movements are more likely to have success when three factors are present: elite conflict, shifting public opinion, and elite blunders.
Mass collective action can create the conditions for these factors to emerge and deepen.
