My interview with Michael Workman about his documentary on the #Gaza Solidarity Encampment is up at @theprogressivemag.bsky.social.

Also, a quick reminder: 61% of all Americans and 77% of Democratic voters now support halting U.S. military funding to Israel. - August 2025 Quinnipiac University.

Glad to publish this by Ben McCarthy about how mental illness came to be mischaracterized as a primary cause of homelessness in the United States—and how that misunderstanding obscures the most devastating impacts of the hypercommodified housing market
