If you use state funds from a public university to host a university event at your house in your capacity as a state employee —-at what point does your action become a state action?

White women feminists passively feigning concern for Palestinians while consistently denigrating any and all protests and disruptions and remaining pretty quiet on the treatment and condition of Palestinian women continues to be very on brand.

Jill, here, is more concerned…

I naively thought of the legal academy as being about education.

I no longer think that.

I see too many 'teachable moments' lost. Seizing those moments requires empathy and patience in order to move toward deescalation and learning, whether or not you are right.

Everyone knows my position on Palestine, but even putting my bias aside aside, I can’t believe Columbia is allowing Shai Davidai to
terrorize his students as he is. As a teacher, it would never occur to me to harm or taunt or troll ANY student in ANY way for ANY reason.

I see Israel struck UNICEF vehicles today after initially clearing them to move into Gaza.

I guess this is fine now. What difference does it make.

Interesting sign we may be moving towards a conference on Geneva Conventions violations in Israel-Palestine that Palestinians + rights groups are seeking. The decision rests with Switzerland + I revealed in Dec the US was pressuring them to say no. Now...

Once again I am making a list and this time it is of academics and journalists who are closing ranks around Erwin WhatevertheFuck as if something bad actually happened to him.

A young woman in a hijab tried to speak.

No blood, no foul.

Law professors acting racist & Islamophobic again. Pretty on brand TBH. Ask any law professor of color if they are surprised.

And this year—the hostility has been even more pronounced. Sometimes, as a Palestinian American—I feel bad because POC who stood by us this year —people…

'Islamist' is a slur. The West treats Islam as a cancer but tries to get away with its hatred by saying 'Islamist' rather than Muslim. We need to call out this dog whistle for what it is.

As a property professor that constantly asks my students to interrogate the privileging of property over other human rights, the 'but it's private property' argument isn't the flex folks think it is.

I always knew I had a unique name—even in the Arab world. My name means “genuine/established/proven heritage” (ie not a fake). After 38 years on this earth, I finally learned that, my dad, at least, named me after the original Palestinian anthem.

Me: Did you name me after the…
