The essay details 3 phases of dehumanization in militarized FP: 1) humanitarian rhetoric framing interventions objectify populations as passive victims, 2) destruction of civilian infrastructure hinders dignified existence, 3) militarized border policies depersonalize migrants 👇

“Rather than being treated as inviolable spaces sheltering embodied personhood of…civilians, infrastructure was rendered mere…material, external to sphere of rights. Its decimation exemplified occupiers’ sovereign disposability over…lives reified as pure corporeal materiality”

Some of my best professional experiences this year have been the opportunities I’ve had to discuss my book, “On Earth or in Poems: The Many Lives of al-Andalus,” with students. If you’d like to use the book in a course next year, please let me know... (1/2)

I'm not saying J.K. Rowling is a male. I'm just saying we have zero proof that she's not a male. And until we see her chromosomes, can she be trusted in women's spaces?

Today, Moroccan youth decided on an irregular mass exodus to Ceuta to "the elsewhere" due to alienation. However, Morocco is building the biggest soccer stadium in the world. #الفنيدق

Speaking about hope to Moroccan youth becomes such an impossible feat sinxe (almost) youth from poor and middle class internalise Morocco is not for them but for the "specters" of modes of production #Morocco
