The Confidence of mediocre, middle class white Politicians & TV Presenters, telling the first Black woman & most racially abused MP elected to parliament, that she doesn't understand Racism as well as they do.
The bread seller was martyred, the flower seller was martyred, the book seller was martyred everyone was martyred. Life itself was martyred, and the small details that once filled our souls with warmth have fallen away.
If you read only one tweet today, make it this one, sit with it and share.
Yesterday, at Al-Awda Hospital in northern Gaza, a girl-child came into this world, and the world rejected her. She had no brain. Not in the poetic sense of innocence or purity, but anatomically, literally: anencephaly. No cerebrum. No future thought, no dreams, no memory to be…
Pro-Palestinian demonstrators who briefly occupied a building at Stanford are going to face more serious criminal charges than any of the Iraq War fraudsters or Wall Street derivatives hucksters.
BREAKING: Santa Clara County District Attorney Jeff Rosen announced that he has charged 12 pro-Palestinian protesters, including Stanford students, with felony vandalism and conspiracy in connection with the pre-dawn break-in at Stanford administrative offices on June 5.…

A Black man with a Palestinian flag, with Gaza and Sudan written on it, being tackled by frantic security guards during the year’s biggest night of Americana pageantry mixed with the commodification of Black culture. Lol. The US in a nutshell. The imagery is profound.

What sort of democracy ransacks bookshops? The Israeli police just pillaged my brilliant friend Mahmoud Muna's wonderful bookshop opposite the American Colony, the best in Jerusalem. Apparently Muna and his nephew Ahmed have both been arrested & marched into court...…
Israeli police raided two Educational Bookshops on Sunday in occupied East Jerusalem, confiscating books & arrested the owner. They rampaged through the store using Google Translate, and whatever they didn’t like they confiscated. Books with Palestinian flag on it, they took it.
more courage and compassion than the whole of Israeli army. An unarmed Palestinian doctor who refused to abandon his patients against an Israeli tank. one of the defining images of genocide in the 21st century

Ah, the late 1950s, when Hallmark could hire Salvador Dalí to design a line of Christmas cards with the highest of expectations. I wrote about the result in 2019 for @OpenCulture: openculture.com/2019/12/when-s…
Israel just killed Khaled Nabhan, who called his granddaughter Reem “the soul of his soul” in a viral CNN report after they slaughtered her last year. They shared a birthday - she would’ve turned 5 next week. This isn’t war it’s the erasure of families & histories- with impunity.
PASTORAL INTERLUDE, Ingrid Pollard, 1987
Unreal what we are witnessing. Impossible to process the gravity of the crime, and they’ve not even finished yet.
Few buildings are standing in northern Gaza in the midst of rubble, and they’re systematically being detonated by the Israeli military with the aim of not leaving intact anything the hundreds of thousands of Palestinians it has been expelling can return to

I'm proud of this school we started in Gaza. Our students came to us utterly traumatized, shut down, and fearful. There's still much trauma, but their parents/caregivers tell us that they can't wait each school day for the next one, and they're advancing academically.…
