So weโ€™re all clear, weโ€™re all watching police officers use excessive force while also watching politicians lie about it and not condemn it.
All in response to, again, a genocide.

It should be much bigger news that Dartmouthโ€™s Chair of Jewish Studies has been banned from campus for trying to defend her students.

Many of these protesters are Jewish.

Many of these faculty members are Jewish.

Calling these protesters antisemitic is putting them in danger.

Come to my talk (or attend via zoom!) on April 16 at noon Chicago time - it is free and super accessible! I can't guarantee that it will be fun, bc it is a challenging topic to discuss, but I can guarantee that my slides will be good.

โ€œThis is not only an attack against WCK, this is an attack on humanitarian organizations showing up in the most dire of situations where food is being used as a weapon of war. This is unforgivable,โ€ said World Central Kitchen CEO.'

As a result WCK is pausing all activities
