“Whether you think of the issue of Palestine or of gentrification and zoning in small American towns, it is that peculiar and imaginary thing called private property in land which is at stake.” Fredric Jameson

Fredric jameson taught me how to read with my friends. And then my friends taught me how to read Jameson.

Southern Lebanon.

NEW: “Summer’s Over: A Note on Politics and the Campus Movement” A reflection on the Gaza solidarity encampments and a look at the prospects of the student movement this fall: “The bloom of batshit policies takes the measure of the insurgency’s strength.” thebadside.net/tbs-3-summers-…
