There is really no point of academics in humanities and social sciences if they can’t stand against a genocide and with students standing against a genocide. This has to be the lowest bar of morality conceivable.

lost at how/why we are allowing Earth Day sales… only this country can topple itself on its head

We 100% live in hell because how are you gunna pause a genocide on the Indigenous people of Palestine so you can celebrate a holiday that is also based on a genocide of the Indigenous people of the US
