My colleague in #Gaza just messaged his cousin’s entire family was killed in an air strike. His voice is empty & hollow with despair. “All my family in the camp. Children & women. We don’t know why they hit the house. My cousin, his wife, his kids. All of them dead. All of them.”

Thank you Jesuits East for sharing this piece I wrote Conversations on Jesuit Higher Education Magazine to reflect on what more Jesuit higher education can do to promote a ceasefire in Gaza and just peace in Israel-Palestine drawing on the legacy of Fr. Ignacio Ellacuria AJCU conversationsmagazine.org/gaza-and-israe…

The world must stop the ethnic cleansing of northern Gaza The magnitude of the crimes Israel is currently committing in the northern Gaza Strip in its campaign to empty it of however many residents are left is impossible to describe, not just because hundreds of thousands of

Please join me in praying for the repose of the soul of Gustavo Gutiérrez, who has died at age 96. He reminds us: the God of Life calls us to work tirelessly to eradicate poverty and every cause of dehumanization by becoming friends with those pushed to the margins. #RIP

On the 35th anniversary of the death of the UCA Jesuit martyrs, let's recall the legacy of Fr Ignacio Ellacuria. In 1982 he called for a more just and informed US policy toward El Salvador; today we must push for a change in US policy on Palestine. conversationsmagazine.org/gaza-and-israe…

That it has come to this. Pope Francis must be heeded.

We are grateful to the 19 Senators who stood up tonight to send a strong message: U.S. complicity in the Israeli government’s catastrophic war in Gaza is unacceptable and must finally end. 🧵

"More Palestinian women and children were killed in Gaza by the Israeli military over the past year than during the equivalent period of any other conflict over the past two decades." Julie Cohen in America Magazine americamagazine.org/politics-socie…

Glad to share U.S. Catholic magazine my reflection on Pope Leo XIV Francis' legacy on Palestine/Israel, consistently calling for a Gaza ceasefire, release of Israeli hostages and bringing attention to the suffering and dignity of Palestinians as part of his advocacy for justice and peace.

Grateful for the opportunity to reflect in CM Research on how resettling of Afrikaners and the shunning of South Africa makes a mockery of refugee resettlement based on international norms and the claim of genocide.
