Want to be clear moves like this show how little power they have; we should not feel defeated. Materials in a museum like NMAAHC were fugitive for most of U.S. history. Ordinary folks collected, archived, studied, recorded these knowledges. Attacking institutionalization is bad but can't erase us.

If Mark Carney wins a majority by running a Red Tory campaign, eating the CPC’s lunch and still dummying the NDP, can we agree the left in Canada needs a page one rewrite?

I wrote about Columbia's complicity in genocide, fascism, and state violence, how liberal humanist values provide cover for imperial interests, and how "supporting students" exceeds the parameters of academic professionalization. www.middleeasteye.net/opinion/colu...

Just when Trump’s tariffs pose the greatest threat in history to Canadian workers, Mark Carney chose to eliminate the Minister of Labour, a position that’s existed since 1909. It’s a brazen move to sideline labour unions but give Bay Street a front row seat. rabble.ca/politics/can...

Fascism, by its very nature, is obsessed with cultural control. The MAGA movement’s newfound interest in the arts prefigures an even more ominous turn.

i think for many of us in higher ed the last almost two years - doing our jobs which require care and walling into class and smiling at students - under conditions of genocide has been soul destroying. Has been for me for sure. But something really broke in me after mahmoud’s kidnapping…
