This cover, by the legendary Kent Monkman, says so much. All of my book covers hold meaning. This one, is a perfect companion to the inside pages. The Knowing is a book about the matriarchal line of my family, a book about finding our lost relations. If every First Nations, Métis…
🧵 The genocide of Palestinian people has not stopped. Estimated 10,000 Palestinian bodies are buried under rubble. These are our families, mothers, grandmothers, siblings, and children. Don’t let charged political conversations deflect you from the bloody reality on the…
Also @DGlaucomflecken as we were taught in medicine, prevention is more important than treatment I.e. let’s call for NOT attacking peaceful protesters and allow for free speech, right? Hard to say? #MedTwitter

The universities that stayed silent while lecturers were blown up are now nearly killing their own staff through police brutality. Solidarity to US colleagues and students. This isn’t democracy. It’s authoritarianism. It deserves our strongest condemnation as a global community

Everyone has a role to play in the struggle against injustice, oppression, and the dehumanization of others.
For all the protestors, pepper spray is oil based. If you get sprayed DO NOT rub your eyes. Immediately blink as much as you can to wash out some of the oil with your own tears. Then, wash your eyes with baby shampoo and rinse copiously with water. Be safe.

Powerful opening words by @yintahfilm directors - this is what solidarity looks like. As Sleydo said at the end of the premier: Cancel C@nada, Free P@lestine. ✊🏽❤️

The traditional council of Kahnawake has confirmed that students have the right to be on this land.

In #Gaza, there's a looming threat to the health of everyone stuck in the Strip. Our latest report explains the collapse of the healthcare system in #Gaza, and why preventable disease outbreaks is the silent killer in the war. Read more here: bit.ly/4dcjV8V
The @LemkinInstitute supports the students at the @Columbia Solidarity Encampment who have sparked a nationwide revolt against genocide. Leaders in the US (@POTUS @VP @SpeakerPelosi @SpeakerJohnson @SenateDems @SenateGOP @SenSchumer @LeaderMcConnell @housedem) should listen to…
Canada should not be sending arms to Israel in violation of the Arms Trade Treaty, and we should not be buying arms tested on Palestinians under occupation and in the war on Gaza. We need a two-way arms embargo now.
America has dedicated more resources and shown more resolve in dealing with a few weeks of students' peaceful protests than it did with decades of school shootings. - A break with Israel threatens the American system more than dead American kids
I'm hearing disturbing reports that students face suspension if they don’t end their peaceful protests in #Columbiauniversity in the USA. This is a clear violation of their right to peaceful assembly
Just now in Parliament, @LMathys asked Defence Minister @BillBlair about @readthemaple's report that an Israeli company will be testing its weapons in Alberta: “Why is this government showcasing weapons in Canada that are killing kids?” #ArmsEmbargoNow
Breaking: Good morning from People's University of Gaza. Students at UBC and across campuses in the Lower Mainland have launches an encampment in solidarity with people of Palestine.
So many elite pundits can’t fathom that young people are protesting not to be cool or fit in but because they are disturbed by images of dead and dismembered Palestinians, because to them, those lives are unworthy and unmournable.
