You provided the weapons that killed them, rejected the international calls to end the slaughter, and denied that they’re being starved. Their suffering is on you, the administration you serve, and the state you protect from accountability.

Were they wrong on Vietnam? No. Were they wrong on South Africa? No. Were they wrong on Iraq? No. They won’t be wrong on Israel, either. Signed, A Historian.

So it turns out bird flu has been ripping through US dairy factories for months and we’re just realizing this now because the USDA exempted farms from testing and even concealed data.

The underrated context to all this is that Biden’s Secretary of Agriculture is a milk lobbyist.

Again, I highly recommend this book for those outraged by Israel's genocide in Gaza - as part of the 100+ years' war on Palestine - but feel ill-informed about the history of settler colonialism in the region and ill-prepared to push back against Zionist legitimizing discourse.

This is what Canada and Canadian institutions do best. They’ve had over 150 years practice fencing out and keeping Indigenous people out of their spaces. Of course they will eventually use these tactics on their own citizens.

The support coming out of the Middle East for American students literally destroys the argument that they hate us regardless if we support them or not. It was never true, it was always just a means of getting us to blindly agree with the mass murdering Arab civilians.

If McGill University's acknowledgment of being on unceded Kanien'kehá:ka territory is sincere, then it should honor the permission granted to the students by my community and nation.

canadian universities for the most part: 'students, go be the change you want to see in the world! fight injustice! stand up for what's right! use your education to critically think about the world around you'

also canadian universities this week: 'no, very much not like that.'

Tens of thousands of civilians are dead and children are starving Nate, we don’t need some dollar store pop-psych explanation for why people are upset

When you read a press release from Haudenosaunee leaders, you know they're going to lay out the historical context for their decision and show how our philosophies can point another way forward. So grateful for Kahnawake Council reminding us what the Two Row Wampum REALLY means.

Those land acknowledgments also always reference the Dish With One Spoon Treaty that covered those lands. That treaty was created so the Haudenosaunee and the Anishinaabe would put aside war and share these lands and resources. AKA it wasn't supposed to be privately owned, EVER

UofT: our university operates in the land of the Huron-Wendat, the Seneca, and the Mississaugas of the Credit. We honour this relation.

Also UofT: UofT’s lands and buildings are private property, activities have to be authorised and encampments are considered trespassing.

Every university in Gaza has been destroyed. As we support students protesting against this genocide around college campuses, please share and consider donating to this young woman's fundraiser so she can evacuate gaza and continue her education in egypt gofundme.com/f/support-nozh…

I remember seeing a bunch of academia and publishing mutuals gleefully rip into Bree for making this correct statement many have known for a while but that at the time, to them, sounded “nuts” but are now watching cops forcibly remove student protestors from their campuses
