I remember May 4th, 1970. I was a student at Harvard, and the news that American troops had shot and killed four students hit our campus like an earthquake. In an instant, our fundamental sense of safety was erased and everything we thought we knew about what it meant to be an…

That's too young to understand what is racist.

b. He will issue a mea culpa where he pretends to apologize for his action. May even have a press conference with Black people behind him.

c. He'll say...that wasn't the real me. And that he hates being judged by that one moment

As someone who wrote a book on campus racism, I need everyone to bookmark this tweet. Once the heat gets hot on Ole Miss student, this will happen.

Israel’s Defenders Talk So Much About Feelings Because They Can’t Talk About Facts

The Guardian has an article out titled “Israelis voice sadness and defiance over Gaza protests on US campuses”, subtitled “People in Jerusalem express little sympathy with anti-war demonstrators,…

We will return, we will build Gaza again.

Jeremy Corbyn's worst result in any national election while Labour leader was 32%. In the 2017 UK general election Corbyn gained 40%.
Starmer just got 34% in the English local elections.
Don't fall for the propaganda about his popularity.

University Of Michigan Students disrupt their commencement and walk out.

White students and their parents are complaining that the graduation ceremony was ruined.

For the past 20 years, students in the Middle East have been buried in the ruins of their universities after…

I don't oppose the butchery in Gaza because I love Hamas or hate Jews or love Islam or hate America.

I don't oppose the butchery in Gaza because I'm a lefty or a commie or an anarchist or an anti-imperialist.

I oppose the butchery in Gaza because I'm not a fucking psychopath.…

All of this 👇🏻

#CeasefireInGazaNOW

And let's keep in mind that politically Israel is in a much tougher position than Hamas. Israel is losing badly in public opinion and cannot move on as long as this goes on. Hamas are making the support for Palestine internationally firmer every day.

The chances that Hamas will…

My feeling is that all the fake noise we're being fed is just a distraction from what's really being set in motion. It's quite clear to me that Israel and the US are already fully coordinated on the looming Rafah attack, but they are stalling and distracting waiting for.. what?…

…was interesting as it confirmed much of what many of us in the covid aware community already know, including;

▶️ the public are being kept in the dark about the prevalence of covid

▶️ the public are being kept in the dark about all the consequences of covid infection

End.

Hands up if you think there should be universal masking in healthcare.

I know those closely involved in Mayor Jamie Driscoll’s campaign will be hurting a bit right now, but they should be very proud. It was always going to be tough, but 126,652 votes for a candidate with no political machine behind them is very respectable & part of a (re)building of the left.

On George Galloway and the GB Workers Party.

The are not perfect. Far from it.

I am at Charles De Gaule airport. They are preventing me from entering France. I am supposed to speak at the French Senate today. They say the Germans put a 1 year ban on my entry to Europe.

In an act of utter vindictiveness the french authorities are denying me access to an earlier flight and insisting on sending me on the last flight back late night to London.

Fortress Europe silencing the witnesses to the genocide while Israel kills them in prison.
