The wife of Palestinian journalist Salem Abu Tayyur bids farewell to her husband and child, both killed by Israel with American missiles.
Incredible sights at UT Austin as the growing protest marches against retreating (and mace wielding) cops, to retake the south lawn they were forced from earlier. Protests will not stop until UT divests from all interests in Israel. Hartzell and Abbot can't intimidate us.
A physical memorial to the Holocaust is meaningless when our government are funding and arming Israel's genocide of Palestinians.

🇳🇴Norway Broadcasting Corporation’s Yama Wolasmal, interviews Israeli spokesperson, David Mencer. This should be taught in all journalism schools. I spoke at the Norwegian Journalism Institute last year @Pressenshus in Oslo & was so impressed with the rigour of their work.

If We Must Die by Claude McKay. One of the greatest poems in literary history. Take a few minutes to read this powerful poem written during the Harlem Renaissance and influenced by the writings and scholarship of W.E.B. DuBois. If We Must Die If we must die, let it not be like…
@helensclegel Im pretty disgusted by wanking in public toilets too. So if caught short I now need to worry about whether Madeley was in the area. Great!
Richard Madeley was arrested for shoplifting two bottles of champagne from a supermarket. He said that he forgot to pay for them and was eventually cleared in the crown court. He later compared shoplifting to “wanking in a public toilet”. He seems to be re-evaluating his views.

Liz from @TrueAnonPod saying what we're all thinking about the genocide supporters: "I can't entertain any of these people anymore. And I don't think anyone else should. Everything they're saying is in bad faith. All of it is wrong. And all of it's designed to f*cking hurt you."
A conversation overheard on a London bus: I saw a house in Leyton going for £3 million. What kind of house? Just a house. That's what's scary. You could win the lottery and still have to live in Leyton.
In South Africa, Northern Ireland, and innumerable other places where conflict led to negotiations and resolution, the people who were called terrorists by our politicians, who could not be broadcast by our media, who were imprisoned, are now viewed as leaders, even as inspiring.
I am disgusted by reports that the Home Office will begin rounding up and detaining asylum seekers, in preparation for deportation to Rwanda. This is a terrifying, repulsive election stunt from a government devoid of humanity. We will resist, together.
The new McCarthyism
Gaza-based journalist Akram al-Satarri has just returned from Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis, where Palestinians are still uncovering more bodies, many with evidence of torture or summary execution. "The three different mass graves are containing around 700 bodies," he says.
It brings me great sadness to share on the morning after the White House Correspondents Dinner that two more Palestinian journalists were killed yesterday, bringing the total to 143. Please say his name: Ibrahim Al-Gharbawi, killed in Khan Younis.
Palestinian culture minister, Atef Abu Saif on the ‘cinematic’ experience of living through the war on Gaza.
If I were the above account, which I’m not*, I’d probably blame my suspension on American shock jocks @willmenaker and @ByYourLogic for setting their dogs on me just hours before, and would be seeking damages in the form of 15% of their Patreon earnings per annum in perpetuity.
Concordia and McGill University students in Montreal, Canada have began an indefinite encampment in to demand an end to the genocide in Palestine and divestment. Students in over 56 universities in US, Britain, Australia, France, and now Canada have begun indefinite encampments:

@farhip This is like wanting to see a demonstration during apartheid that was not pro-white, not pro-black, but just on behalf of peace. In a situation of unequal power, of racist oppression, a demonstration for peace must take sides and demand liberation.

When I arrived in the UK I couldn't tell different British accents apart. Within a few years, I could distinguish them - but I also found myself starting to make judgements about people based on them. I'd picked up the judgements as I'd learnt to identify the accents. Scary.
🚨 Accent prestige in the UK 🚨 Our research has found that a hierarchy of accent prestige remains in Britain 🗣️ Accents associated with industrial cities and ethnic minority accents are considered the least prestigious. Received Pronunciation is ranked the highest.

Taking over Hamilton Hall as done in 1968, Columbia students unfurl a banner that reads "Hind's Hall," in reference to Hind Rajab, a six-year-old girl killed by Israeli forces. Hundreds of students cheer as the banner is revealed, erupting into chants to "Free Palestine."
