I was scheduled to give a talk on Palestine at a student conference at @notredame.bsky.social. The University rescinded my talk a week in advance citing an extremely flimsy excuse. It is truly disgusting. Attached is the letter I received and my reply, link below...

If you live anywhere that’s in any way affected by Trump’s illegal and stupid tarrifs (hint: that’s everywhere), please watch and share the video below. It’s really important that people understand what’s actually going on right now with #TrumpsTradeWar.

It shocks me how some people still think all this craziness will not touch them, that as bad as the US is for others they can’t be abused because they are European (white) and they would not dare. People don’t really listen to the canary in the coal mine

The prayer room at NYU — accessibly only via NYU ID — was vandalized with islamophobic graffiti and prayer mats were reportedly urinated on. NYU didn’t address the incident for several hours. Elected officials quick to condemn antisemitism have said nothing.

Princeton has been making some pretty impressive decisions in the past few years, including making it free for almost everyone. But this, right now, is what I’m most proud of.

What made US universities great was their capacity to identify, foster and absorb foreign talent. In my department at Princeton there were 2 American and 8 foreigners, same proportion for grad students. This was the American project after WW2

1/ Israel is assassinating journalists in Gaza — and Western media’s silence enables it. On March 24, Israel killed two more reporters: Hossam Shabat and Mohammad Mansour. This isn’t “crossfire.” This is a kill list. 🧵

These stories of Canadians and Germans and French people getting detained are important and horrifying and I'm glad we're telling them And also, in addition, we find them shocking because the liberal bargain has always been that these things will never happen to white people

This thread explains in what putting Columbia's MESAAS in receivership means. And controlling this center of scholarship and activism in the areas they cover is 47's goal. That and to see if he can try this sort of control elsewhere.

Horrified that the brief respite of the ceasefire appears to be over—already seeing reports of many injured & killed, including children. This after weeks of Israel blocking aid into Gaza. This after months of escalating violence and displacement in the West Bank. The nightmare continues.
