Judy Singer's hatefulness also torpedoed any goodwill the autistic and #neurodiversity communities once felt towards her; she has since been embraced by anti-ND grievance parents. Don't let transphobia eat your brain! Also: Thanks to @19thnews for including image descriptions!

34,000 killed. 77,000 injured. 7,000 buried in the rubble. War crimes. Genocide. This is why students are protesting on college campuses across the country. #FreePalestine news.un.org/en/story/2024/…
When we say this battle is for universal liberation, we are neither exaggerating nor being dramatic—this fight determines the kind of world you and your children will live in.
I’m in too many long distance friendships.. I miss you muthafuckas!
It bears repeating that supporting the police actions against students and faculty at Columbia, NYU, Yale, and college campuses across the county means aligning yourself with fascist Republicans like Elise Stefanik #FreePalestine chronicle.com/article/elise-…
We refuse to accept the mass slaughter of Palestinians as normal or acceptable. As elected officials and media outlets weaponize the concept of “campus safety”, remember that there are no universities left in Gaza. All eyes on Palestine. #cu4palestine
The state-sanctioned actions being taken against Columbia and NYU students protesting the Israeli government's genocidal actions in Gaza are abhorrent. They're the acts of an authoritarian government, not a democratic one. #FreePalestine
I am moved by the integrity of the authors withdrawing from prize lists to protest @PENamerica's refusal to name the genocide in Gaza and failure to meet their stated aims of protecting free speech and Palestinian writers. Here are their books to buy bookshop.org/wishlists/7166…

“Allow me to give you some advice from the heart: don’t give up art, and even give yourself over to it even more. To live alone may well make your life too drear for endurance. There is but one cure, one refuge, for that woe: art, creative activity.” — Fyodor Dostoevsky, 1880
Bad take. Claudette Colvin was an unwed teen mom and *the NAACP, the organization* decided her case wasn’t the right one to push in the public eye due to respectability and what it would put her through. There were also other cases! They were strategically selective.

I'm in my first Authors Against Book Bans leadership meeting and learned it is up to 1100 members, which DWARFS all the one-person faux-grassroots book banning fake organizations in the US put together. Authors, sign up to help further put them to shame. authorsagainstbookbans.com
The Israeli government has been completely, 100% clear—on television, in the press, in official statements—that their goal is to get rid of every single Palestinian in Gaza, either by killing them or by forcing them out. The fact that we still need to debate this is exhausting.

We have a moral obligation to speak up and speak out about the horrors happening in Palestine, Sudan, and Congo. We have a moral obligation, as American tax payers, to say stop sending our money to slaughter Palestinians.

Don't let transphobia eat your brain! Also: Thanks to @19thnews for including image descriptions!
Judy Singer was once known as "The mother of Neurodiversity." However, transphobia has since derailed Singer's thinking—& her bigotry led to the eruption of long-simmering rumors about how she misrepresented her supposedly formative role. By @slooterman: 19thnews.org/2024/04/neurod…
For authors still wondering if your voices matter, $75,000 will now be donated to the @ThePCRF because of the dogged work of @wawog_now and the moral courage of dozens of writers of conscience who spoke out in solidarity with the people of Gaza.

I’m in too many long distance friendships.. I miss you muthafuckas!
We refuse to accept the mass slaughter of Palestinians as normal or acceptable. As elected officials and media outlets weaponize the concept of “campus safety”, remember that there are no universities left in Gaza. All eyes on Palestine. #cu4palestine
I am moved by the integrity of the authors withdrawing from prize lists to protest @PENamerica's refusal to name the genocide in Gaza and failure to meet their stated aims of protecting free speech and Palestinian writers. Here are their books to buy bookshop.org/wishlists/7166…
I'm so sorry if this was upsetting, and I'm sorry I don't have the spoons to reply individually, but I wanted to get something out asap and say thank you. your kind words and support mean so so much. I've talked with my treatment team. still not okay, but still here for now.

The only recognizable feature of hope is action.—Grace Paley
“Allow me to give you some advice from the heart: don’t give up art, and even give yourself over to it even more. To live alone may well make your life too drear for endurance. There is but one cure, one refuge, for that woe: art, creative activity.” — Fyodor Dostoevsky, 1880
Someone needs to moderate a panel with @malindalo, @randyribay and @Abdaddy on the multi generational plots in their novels that also trace the history of marginalized communities and how each generation deals with these legacies of resistance and survival. Someone do that.
Being a super-recognizer is always weird...ran into a guy I havent seen in 30 years today and recognized him instantly and he had no idea who I was
Bad take. Claudette Colvin was an unwed teen mom and *the NAACP, the organization* decided her case wasn’t the right one to push in the public eye due to respectability and what it would put her through. There were also other cases! They were strategically selective.
@dom_lucre Claudette Colvin was the first black American to get arrested for refusing to move to the back of the bus and she did it more than a year before Rose Parks. Parks stole the idea from Colvin as a publicity stunt for the NAACP. KNOW YOUR HISTORY👇
I'm in my first Authors Against Book Bans leadership meeting and learned it is up to 1100 members, which DWARFS all the one-person faux-grassroots book banning fake organizations in the US put together. Authors, sign up to help further put them to shame. authorsagainstbookbans.com
The Israeli government has been completely, 100% clear—on television, in the press, in official statements—that their goal is to get rid of every single Palestinian in Gaza, either by killing them or by forcing them out. The fact that we still need to debate this is exhausting.
We have a moral obligation to speak up and speak out about the horrors happening in Palestine, Sudan, and Congo. We have a moral obligation, as American tax payers, to say stop sending our money to slaughter Palestinians.
People mistake your cause for winning them over. The mission is to de-weaponize their disagreement.
