"Genocide begins with the idea of genocide"

The Congress’ 2024 election manifesto is arguably one of the most progressive manifestos to come out in years. A thread of key highlights

Thread: After more than a year of work, we have now launched dataforindia.com, a public platform that seeks to expand access to Indian data for everyone, and deepen the understanding of the country that can come from this data

Here’s my short essay on the connections between Urdu literature and Palestinian resistance. May Palestine be free and may all our collective freedoms become possible along the path of its liberation

Arab students in India protesting the Camp David Accords (the source of Egyptian complicity in today's genocide).

NYPD threatening to arrest student and faculty journalists if they dare set foot outside of Pulitzer Hall to bear witness to the violence the police are doing on their own campus

Launching soon, special double issue in collaboration with Majalla 28, co-edited by Mohammed Zaqzooq and Mahmoud al-Shaer, w/contributions from more than 20 writers in Gaza, + classic works, art, fiction, & poetry centering Gaza. All profit from sales+ads go to our Gaza partners

Two big takeaways: 1) More unexploded missiles and bombs have fallen in Gaza than anywhere in the world since at least the Second World War. 2) Ukrainian frontline is 600 mi long, and Gaza frontline is 25 mi long. There’s more rubble—37m tons—in Gaza than in Ukraine.

"this is the way the [Harvard] administration has chosen to engage the students: it has met them in the realm of administrative sanction rather than recognizing the moral purpose and institutional seriousness of the issues they raise"

🚨🚨BREAKING: Harvard has violated its agreement with student protestors. This betrayal will PREVENT 12 STUDENTS FROM GRADUATING and place 28 on probation or suspension. In the agreement reached to end the HOOP encampment, Garber promised to encourage Ad Boards to follow

BREAKING: The Harvard Corporation rejected an effort by the Faculty of Arts and Sciences to confer degrees on 13 seniors facing disciplinary charges for participating in the pro-Palestine encampment. Emma Haidar and Cam E. Kettles report. thecrimson.com/article/2024/5…

A day before commencement, the Harvard Corp. has told me I will not be allowed to graduate. I hope this moment exposes the corporate rot central to institutions like Harvard. To my peers graduating - remember: 15,000 Gazan kids will never graduate.

This was the most beautiful thing to see/ be a part of. And I'll say it again: this is not about college campuses. Students are doing this for Palestine.
