I wrote a book about an island full of secrets, boys who disappear, and the ways that the powerful use narrative and belief as tools of control. And Abraham Matias designed an absolutely stunning cover. THE VANISHED ONES is out on 1.28.25 📚 abramsbooks.com/product/vanish…
We were told “members of your delegation liked, tweeted or retweeted pro Palestinian sentiments” on that basis we were unwelcome. We have never been provided with evidence of our alleged “wrong doings”. This decision should be concerning for everyone.

@CarolShaben @rollwithheather @twuc @rabbleca @SupremeCourtCan @ElJonesPoet @DericoSymonds @benazirrrrr That's horrible! And really shows how anti Palestinian bias is embedded in all our institutions. This is a genocide. It's time these attitudes were changed.
@ElJonesPoet, @DericoSymonds, and Benazir Tom Erdimi were disinvited from presenting to law clerks at the Supreme Court of Canada on anti-Black racism because their social media posts in support of Palestine made the law clerks feel “unsafe” and “harmed in their mental health.”
Just received this from @twuc. According to @rabbleca @SupremeCourtCan may be censoring @ElJonesPoet @DericoSymonds and @benazirrrrr for their social media posts on #Palestine and #Gaza? This is not my #Canada
PEN Canada condemns the abrupt cancellation of invitations to three anti-Black racism advocates scheduled to appear at a January 15 presentation to the law clerks of the Supreme Court of Canada. Our statement today:
This is very concerning.
We were told “members of your delegation liked, tweeted or retweeted pro Palestinian sentiments” on that basis we were unwelcome. We have never been provided with evidence of our alleged “wrong doings”. This decision should be concerning for everyone.
Lastly, shout out to @ElJonesPoet, @DericoSymonds and others affected for always handling yourselves with grace despite the BS thrown your way.
@DericoSymonds @TheReclaimed Wind and dust @DericoSymonds wind and dust. As long as the wind blows and the dust settles the wind will blow the dust whichever way it wants. The hope is someday we cease to be the dust that settles and become the wind that is not known its origin but recognized for its power.
The ant-Black racism coming from Canada’s pro-Israel advocates against South Africa is founded on the idea that Africans are only ever to be acted upon by “international law,” and are never to be the actors. Only Europeans are entitled to use these instruments.
@DericoSymonds You blessed my class with your insightful lecture!!! #Transformational
“We need less leaders, and more LEADERSHIP!” ~ @DericoSymonds
Isnt it weird most of those alphabet federally funded Black orgs that sprung up in past 5 years just disappeared and never do anything and nobody noticed bc they didn’t do anything to start with?But when we criticized them we were told they were vital leaders and we were jealous?
@DericoSymonds They might be "legally able" to terminate the rental agreement, but this shows a horrible lack of compassion for a grieving family and a sick elder! @MetCapLivingMgt , how will you rectify this situation?
