SOPHICIDE:

The Zionist regime’s deliberate annihilation of Indigenous knowledge traditions inspired by the land itself, as well as the carriers of that knowledge.

'For us, all of us, part of our resistance to the erasure of genocide is to talk about tomorrow in Gaza, to plan for the healing of the wounds of Gaza tomorrow. We will own tomorrow. Tomorrow will be a Palestinian day.'

'we want to stress the importance of the organization's role in maintaining a space where writers who are for, and writers who are against, mass starvation, mass graves at destroyed hospitals, & mass dehumanization, can come together to jointly quest for insight and inspiration'

The drone attack on Israel prompted the USA, Jordan and the UK to intervene and safeguard Israel. However, thousands of devastating bombs rained down upon us, and sadly, no one came forward to help us.

Remember, Jairo I Fúnez-Flores did NOT have tenure, and behaved more bravely than 99% of tenured profs.

And came out of this stronger than ever.

Be like Prof. Fúnez-Flores. The time to live by your principles is not when you think you're safe, but now, when the world needs you.

'This is exactly what accomplices to a crime do: they bury the evidence and they harass, or silence, or intimidate the witnesses.'

An incisive analysis of an instantly infamous image: that of a white liberal law professor aggressively silencing a Palestinian hijabi student.

It’s always ugly when liberals vent their racist rage. But it’s also salutary to see the violence lurking behind the veneer of civility

Mere months after volunteering at Gaza’s besieged al Shifa hospital, Dr Ghassan Abu Sitta is now serving as Rector of Scotland’s Glasgow University.

And he’s already done more to expose Western academia’s w/ genocide than all rectors, presidents, provosts, & boards put together!

One of the most gruesome ZioCrimes. More than 17,000 unaccompanied and separated children, most lost their parents and whole families in airstrikes.

As the tide turns globally, I see the effort to pin the blame solely on Netanyahu. The strategy is to resurrect Israel's image in the process of toppling him. But genocide is not a one-man show; the whole system is culpable. Zionism must be abolished. There is no going back.

“I saw in Auschwitz that if a dominant group wants to dehumanise others, as the Nazis dehumanise me, the dominant group must first dehumanise themselves, the same holds nowadays for Israel.

I am appalled about how hateful, how dehumanised, that they do not see any human aspect…

I introduced my students to Refaat this week.

The genocidal assassins may have killed his body, but his words, thoughts, and spirit are as alive & alert as ever.

They continue to reinvigorate old comrades & admirers & to inspire new readers & changemakers.

What exactly is it about this well-spoken & composed young woman that triggered the law professor so?

Her hijab?
Her kuffiyeh?
The fact that she’s Palestinian?
The fact that she’s Muslim?
The fact that she calmly drew attention to complicity w/genocide?
All of the above?

We miss those who meant everything to us, who were killed by Israel, who we cherished dearly. We remember you. You were our Eid, You were our joy.
