Teaching the work of Jennifer Nash is a joy. So much clarity and care.

So deeply moved by the @nationalbook finalists statement advocating for a ceasefire and speaking unflinchingly against Islamophobia, Antisemitism and anti Palestinian sentiment and for the children. Solidarity is beautiful.

@joshbegley Sheesh, I was *there* (apropos of nothing, every day something reminds me that I’m old lol.)

This moment seems as though it is becoming more extreme than McCarthyism. Not even (sham) hearings, just summary judgement & punishment.

Doctors in Gaza told me of their final desperate plea for help: people have been shot trying to evacuate Shifa, at least 1 premature baby & patients in ICU have died because generator fuel ran out, bombing is terrifyingly close, there are so few medics 🧵independent.co.uk/news/world/mid…

@seminewblack @PublishersWkly @MonicaYoun @jorie_graham 💙!!!

@vijayiyer Yes!!!

My UofM talk last night further concretized (to me) the limits of these economic systems and forms of rationality that we’ve adopted. We are capable beings who have to find an alternative to flawed systems that increase greed and/or dependence on any state that views its citizens… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

This open letter from Jewish students just arrested at Brown made me actually cry. These are my Jews. So many of us. I'm so proud of them for standing up and sitting in. browndailyherald.com/article/2023/1…

“Vanity asks the question, is it popular? But conscience asks the question, is it right? And there comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor politic, nor popular but he must take it because conscience tells him it is right.” -Dr. Martin Luther King Jr

Another absolutely stunning book 💙 twitter.com/HarvardBooks/s…

It is outstanding. Completely blew me away as did 12 Tribes of Hattie. twitter.com/phillymag/stat…

Writing and recording A Dangerously High Threshold for Pain was frankly terrifying but it felt important to share my life with Graves/Lupus/chronic migraines in the midst of the mass disabling of CoVid. Solidarity ❤️ Grateful for Audible’s recognition of it as audio memoir/bio twitter.com/audible_com/st…
