Student uprisings have been right on nearly all justice issues in recent history. They were right about civil rights, women’s rights, Vietnam, South Africa, drug war, guns. Now, they’re right to denounce Israel’s genocide against Palestinians and US complicity in the slaughter.

another part of the academic scam is that research specific to our communities is discounted as too niche and only applies to few, but white cishet centered research is seen as benevolent to all and therefore superior. scam.
Made my day to see @hallehillwrites's gorgeous new @HubCityPress book featured in the New Fiction display when I walked into my local public library (out here in northern Colorado)!! Amazing, essential book 💛

It's insulting that you'd imply we were all just confused about your grantmaking strategy. The boycott was about a specific situation with specific asks, and you responded with an org chart and had the nerve to wrap it in a June Jordan poem.

current state of DEI in higher ed: Diversity- diverse admin upholding colonial order Equity- everyone has an equal chance of experiencing police violence Inclusion- if you want to be included on our campus, just support genocide
Student uprisings have been right on nearly all justice issues in recent history. They were right about civil rights, women’s rights, Vietnam, South Africa, drug war, guns. Now, they’re right to denounce Israel’s genocide against Palestinians and US complicity in the slaughter.

“Prepare to knit yourself back into the world.” Read “After” by @beegood2bees with art by Christopher Harris: hoppermag.org/after
Not to disappoint everyone but I think the first chapter of my book doesn't need a long digression about Lefebvre after all lol
I love how folx think students aren't learning because they're not in a physical classroom. Have ya heard of land-based learning? It's a huge part of Indigenous pedagogy, literally how we've passed knowledge for centuries. These students are embodying their learning right now.
Happy Earth Day! Today is one of a few days in the year where folx remember Native Nations still exist. If that's you, Hi! Welcome! Just a quick note that we have been stewards of this land since time immemorial and there can be no climate justice without us. Free Palestine!
As of ten days ago, my book has officially been out in the world for six months❣️
one week until it drops 🤍 please consider pre-ordering (I suggest via @indiebound), as pre-order numbers influence the amount of resources that the publisher and booksellers invest into the marketing of a book, how many copies they print & buy, etc. Poetry needs your patronage!
In compliance with the @Fsjp_cbt call for an academic boycott, I’ve declined an invitation to perform at @INCITE_Columbia’s forthcoming opening for “I See My Light Shining: Oral Histories of Our Elders.” Solidarity with arrested and suspended students — all eyes on Palestine!
Our statement on the actions on campus yesterday, including the arrest of 100+ of our students.
I hate land acknowledgments. There, I fucking said it.
"I feared becoming subsumed by caretaking and motherhood...so writing—getting outside of my domestic sphere to listen for trains in winter—was both how I wrote, and why I wrote." @AnnaLauraReeve discusses her book Reaching the Shore of the Sea of Fertility spkofmarvels.wordpress.com/2023/02/01/ann…
HAPPENING NOW!! Grandparents Ted and Jane are blockading Honeysuckle Rd on Poor Mtn in VA with a large wooden possum, preventing Mountain Valley Pipeline construction. Join a support rally at the site of the blockade! #NoMVP
Rather than a land acknowledgment, something I've found to work better is a "land history" segment to begin a teach-in or workshop, where you talk about land/building/house/neighborhood you're in, in all its complexity and how it connects to your topic that day. Eg:
another part of the academic scam is that research specific to our communities is discounted as too niche and only applies to few, but white cishet centered research is seen as benevolent to all and therefore superior. scam.
All 15 of my books are now together. 8 coedited anthologies, 6 poetry collections, and 1 academic monograph.
Despite my deep gratitude to the judges who believed in my book, BIANCA, I have withdrawn from consideration for the 2024 PEN/Voelcker Award for Poetry. I made this choice in keeping with the boycott sustained against @PENamerica, and in solidarity with Palestine. 🧵
Congratulations, Leslie!! ✨💜🌼✨
