Israel bombed the Iranian consulate in Syria assassinating multiple senior Iranian officials & we're supposed to believe that it's Iran drawing 'the Middle East into a wider conflict' & should 'work to de-escalate and prevent further attacks'. An insult to people's intelligence.

Deeply depressing how many American institutions are choosing complicity with genocide at considerable cost to themselves.

this is weird, reminds me of that Black Mirror episode where the white man keeps the Black man’s soul imprisoned forever as a hologram in a museum

In the 1960s & 1970s in the absence of mainstream publishers many Black voices would never have been heard if not for small independent African American publishers. How do we keep the work alive now that the publishers and poets themselves are passing on?

White people have a thing about videos of Black people cheering when OJ got off and Arab kids cheering when the towers were hit.

American Fiction is based on the conceits that a) the only genres of African American literature are grossly imitative variants of white literature, or some kind of mawkish, sociological 'gangster' lit and b) Thelonious “Monk” Ellison is actually a good writer.

We have to understand that the academic elites have not suddenly become unhinged, only that their debased venality and their fundamental hatred of Palestinians, of Arabs (and of Blacks), is on public display. This is actually normal.

I was re-reading Edward Said's Culture and Imperialism and it left me a little depressed. He has this essential optimism and hope for humanity derived from his readings, even his critical readings, of European high culture. Am I mis-reading him? What would he say now?

People who are saying you shouldn't protest at Erwin Chemerinsky private home have nothing to say about the destruction of Palestinian's private homes.

You watch that video and the student was calm, possessed, poised and hardly disruptive. Dean Chemerinsky, meanwhile, was unhinged and seemed less interested in what she had to say than disgusted by the fact that she is Muslim

WATCH🚨If you watched this video of UC Berkeley Law Dean Chemerinsky + wife Catherine Fisk assault a law student, watch this longer clip

Student HAD NOT EVEN MENTIONED PALESTINE. She had done a traditional Islamic greeting for Ramadan. This is incredibly racist! Next level unhinged

This is such a beautiful read.

I'm so ashamed that I didn't know anything about the Makerere literary scene until I read this article now.

'The writing scene was vibrant and alive, and its only rival in eminence was Ibadan.'
