Lebanese friend of mine is trying to get information about his family & said something I didn’t even stop to consider today. He said ‘a lot of people are hesitant to answer texts right now’. What Israel did today really does change the course of how “wars” are conducted.

Coverage of these attacks that continues to frame them as though they are targeting Hezbollah, while thousands of civilians lie injured - many critically - is doing Israeli propaganda. Incredible how our news industry can say that ‘Israel hasn’t confirmed it’s behind the attacks’

The geniuses at Tordotcom Publishing made this beautiful animated cover for THE RIVER HAS ROOTS! It makes me a little teary; the music sounds like something my sister (who plays flute) & I (who play harp) would play together. It's out March 4, 2025, & you can pre-order it now!

The 1982 Israeli-facilitated Sabra & Shatila massacre of 3000 Palestinians occurred during Sept 16-18. It speaks to Israeli savagery to pick those anniversary days to unleash physical & psychological terror - undoubtedly to spark memory of its occupation & bloodshed in Lebanon.

One of the children killed yesterday in Lebanon, as a result of Israel’s barbaric detonation of pagers, was a relative of one of my best friends. This isn’t a ‘far-away conflict,’ and this isn’t a ‘single policy issue’ — this affects us, our communities and our loved ones.

It is so distressing and unreal to see variations of “What if the people killed actually mattered” posed every day while your community is being killed. What if Arabs mattered as much as “other civilians”? What if we existed near you when targeted by USrael?

Anti-imperialism, paranoid readings, feral online behavior over fictional lesbians, and more: Episode 07, discussing Seth Dickinson's THE TRAITOR BARU CORMORANT with Amal El-Mohtar, is live!

"we've declared x 'not a real country' and on that basis, we get to conquer and loot it" is the basic unit of european imperial history in the last, like, 300 years

I am not OK. I have never felt as abandoned or lonely as these past 12 months. I'm watching kids torn apart. I stop hearing from friends. And in this industry of people I thought would value the lives of people that are like myself, it's silence. And I'm just a bystander.

"Complicated and difficult" is such a cop-out for cowards. It's actually incredibly easy to look at a situation where tens of thousands of children are murdered and say "everyone person involved in making that happen should be treated as the monstrous war criminal they are."

its 2024. never let anyone say you can’t have a settler colonial society AND enshrine modes of old school euro style ethnonationalism AND maintain internal colonies, bantustans, and reservations AND seize territory in direct imperialistic expansion. don’t let others define you
