💔 A beautiful message to everyone in our country. One they should have never, ever had to make. A powerful and poignant statement from the Hortmans' two children on how they would like their parents to be remembered: @toreyvanoot.bsky.social

Never has it been clearer that “no one is free until Palestine is free” is not a chant but a warning, as we all stare into the abyss of another world war.

“harboring deep contempt 4 its neighbors—engaging in murderous rampages against anyone, whenever & however it pleases…nearly 80 years, total victory has been around the corner: just defeat the Palestinians, eliminate Hamas, crush Lebanon, destroy Iran’s nuclear capabilities & paradise will be ours.”

I'm not against the No Kings protest - you should go. But also be careful not to compare this to what we're watching in LA. There's a difference between a permitted, coordinated march that advocates a return to a sense of status quo & a grassroots movement that calls for its abolition. 1/

Padilla: If this is how DHS responds to a senator with a question you can only imagine what they're doing to farm workers, to cooks, to day laborers out in the Los Angeles community and throughout California.

on this genocide studies scholars community call and my immediate thought is two-fold: why are older scholars surprised? This is an indictment of the field. A field of their making.

Last week I had to explain to my 9yo why a human would be called an alien. Also why someone would describe a human as “illegal.”

and now that Latinos are being chased down like animals at graduations, at construction sites, and in their homes, the “Latinos for Trump” crowd feels “betrayed”. that’s what happens when you try to integrate into a white colonial project that never saw you as human beings.

for many Latinos the American dream is to be American white. conservative Christian practices, traditional family values, belief in meritocracy and bootstrap ideology. it fits because many Latino communities are deeply anti-Black, anti-Indigenous and anti-poor.

With every news story, I'm thinking about the coworker who said it was paranoia to think students would be threatened. The boss who said "we're talking to DACA students" when I asked how we'd prepare for international student visa threats under Trump.

An article appeared in Haaretz today by former head of amnesty international entitled, “We objected to the statement that this was genocide and were kicked out of Amnesty. Now I'm not sure anymore” & I don’t know what to make of this trend of genocide facilitators scrambling to record objections.

I'm caught up with grading. My first summer course is all set, and I am setting my sights on my own writing projects before my second summer course which I am so excited about because it combines my expertise in Bible and genocide plus a focus on reception history. This is my next book project.
