Canada needs to stop the madness against Survivors of St. Anne’s Indian Residential School. Each Survivor needs truthful disclosure of evidence and reports for their child abuse claim, legal advice as to whether more child abuse compensation is owed. theglobeandmail.com/opinion/articl…
This is a helpful thread. This is what scholars should be doing in the public interest. Knowing stuff is good. Please read.

As a social movement scholar, it's so enraging to see universities taking brutal and draconian measures against student protestors when I know for a fact that many also brag about how they do "cutting-edge" research on social movements. Some even have social movement archives! /1
Everyone who understands the generative power of truth and knowledge owes a debt of gratitude to the incredible commitment and hard work of St. Anne’s Indian Residential School survivors. That debt needs to be paid with an Elders Institute. Read here: theglobeandmail.com/opinion/articl…
Please read this:
To reporters writing this up: this was a unilateral, surprise attack by Zionists. Encampment residents were eating lentils and sitting around. Suddenly reports of men in plastic white masks at the gates. Then poles thrown. Shouts of GET DOWN... skunk spray...
A pro-Palestinian encampment at UCLA came under attack overnight from pro-Israel counter-protesters using fireworks. @carterevans reports on the latest from the L.A. campus. cbsn.ws/44pHffb

A recorded, barely veiled, verbal threat of violence against groups of people at a @TPSBoard meeting. Protestors are not getting armed. Who is the actual dangerous threat here? Here’s the clip for anyone who doesn’t have time to find it:

This right here 👇🏼.
Have been saying over and over again, every single week of this genocide, these daily massacres, has been a deliberate choice by Israel—there has always been an offer to exchange hostages, and it has been consistently rejected.

Folks, the very thing Israeli fascists feared the most has arrived - legitimacy for the BDS movement. They never wanted a new generation to understand what those of us who struggled against South Africa knew - our version of BDS helped bring down apartheid in South Africa.
I would stand beside her and/or behind her and ask others to do the same. No way she’s sitting there alone while all these people look away. STAND UP for her. And reverse this prejudiced ban.
Nope, the protests have not led to the arrests. The arrests are the result of concerted decisions by administrators across campuses. Nothing natural or inevitable about the arrest of non-violent protestors.
👇🏼 Ouch and also true. We shouldn’t let universities to be this unaccountable to the truth.

2K Followers 2K Following Clinical Psychologist & Distinguished ProfessorIn short, we need to put truth before reconciliation, and Canadians in particular need to embrace the opportunity to debunk and discredit this dangerous denialism as they get read and then used, as the authors intend, by people to attack truth and reconciliation.
Shame on the NP for publishing more denialism. But instead of anger – and giving the outrage clicks/money they are desperate for – we need to take these opportunities to organize, to learn and teach more people how to identify and confront denialism effectively.
I mean, I (and others) just made this clear about another oped the NP published this week - which is also by someone who pushes residential school denialism for money, and is a contributor to that residential school denialist book. It's a grift: x.com/seancarleton/s…
The pattern is clear at this point: The National Post regularly pays racists to write racist things because it appeals to racists who eagerly consume the content, generating profit and protecting the settler capitalist status quo. It's a closed circuit.
From defending John A. Macdonald and saying there is no evidence of unmarked graves to rejecting the consensus (which Church and State have already acknowledged) that residential schools were genocidal, the author’s claims are just textbook denialism. There's nothing new here.
Here is a summary of the report published by Reid Gerbrandt and I laying bare how the "mass grave hoax" theory the author advances is rooted in denialism as a reactionary and far-right strategy popularized by conspiracy theorists like Alex Jones: theconversation.com/we-fact-checke…
What’s particularly egregious about today’s oped is that it’s basically just an advertisement for that far-right residential school denialist book. The author even admits to writing the book's foreword, which pushes the debunked “mass grave hoax” conspiracy theory.
The author of today’s oped has been one of denialism's ring leaders, constantly trying to undermine the TRC, historical scholarship, and offer anti-Indigenous talking points (often published in the NP) to protect Canada’s settler capitalist status quo.
First, the NP has offered a platform to residential school denialism for years, which, to be clear is not the denial of the IRS system’s existence, but the attempt to twist/misrepresent facts to shake public confidence in truth and reconciliation. See: theconversation.com/truth-before-r…
Canada needs to stop the madness against Survivors of St. Anne’s Indian Residential School. Each Survivor needs truthful disclosure of evidence and reports for their child abuse claim, legal advice as to whether more child abuse compensation is owed. theglobeandmail.com/opinion/articl…
Jewish author here, and for years I've used my social media to teach folks about the history of "antisemitism," but I will not be using that term anymore. And to fully explain why, we need to get clear on the history of the word. 1/🧵
@Jef_The_Leftist @TRyanGregory I also don’t like -phobia words though, because hate isn’t fear, and phobias are a real mental illness that don’t have anything to do with hate. So disability advocates have asked us to move away from that language. I think anti-____-hate is a clear, flexible construction!

@smartassnishnaw Why is this the default landscaping for a stormwater pond anyway? Do they really want to invite folks to walk up to the edge of the water on an inclined slope? What is the purpose of having so much turfgrass in an area unsuitable for recreational uses? What happens during floods?
This is a video showing anti-Blackness. This is a sitting Congressman applauding it.

As a social movement scholar, it's so enraging to see universities taking brutal and draconian measures against student protestors when I know for a fact that many also brag about how they do "cutting-edge" research on social movements. Some even have social movement archives! /1
