Within hours, Israeli forces demolished homes, wells, and even caves in the West Bank hamlet of Khilet al-Dabe’, leaving families with nowhere to shelter.

The next person to represent San Francisco in Congress needs to take these positions & employ this rhetoric ⬇️

UCLA shut down a screening of The Encampments—a documentary about students being brutalized by police for protesting Israel’s genocide in Gaza— by sending police to brutalize students during the screening. Of the documentary. About that.

Will California’s elected leaders condemn this fascism that took place at UCLA last night? I won’t hold my breath.

My public comment from yesterday’s San Francisco Board of Supervisors meeting recognizing Muslim Appreciation & Awareness Month. Still rocking that keffiyeh. ✊🏽💅🏽

Despite posting the below last month, Senator Wiener is a principal co-author of this new bill to crack down on teaching on the history of Palestine and Israel. He pretends to get how this issue is being exploited to attack education, but he himself is participating.

Your reminder that AB 1468 is racist bullshit.

San Francisco officially recognized Muslim Appreciation & Awareness Month for the first time ever today. Introduced as a resolution by SF’s first ever Muslim Supervisor @bilalmahmood.bsky.social Thankful to the community who came out to represent at the Board of Supervisors meeting today.

The ACLU is asking a federal judge to return about 140 Venezuela migrants sent to a prison in El Salvador back to the U.S. They had been deported there under the Trump administration’s use of the Alien Enemies Act more than a month ago.

4/22/25: the San Francisco Supervisors passed a resolution in recognition of Arab American Heritage Month. I commented on the rise in anti-Arab hate due to the U.S. funded Israeli genocide in Gaza. & I told them about the anti-Arab hate incident I experienced at City Hall just an hour earlier. 🧵

If this is the tack local Democrat leaders are taking, leadership of the Party nationally will NOT be led from San Francisco. The leaders of the Party resemble the efforts of Van Hollen, Sanders, AOC & Pressley & Markey. www.politico.com/news/2025/04...

Democrats that sound like Republicans may have wins in the short term, but will fail in the long run. Absolutely morally bankrupt & soulless: “They cite…symbolic resolutions about foreign conflicts like the war in Gaza…” (1/2) www.politico.com/news/2025/04...

We should all be allies and advocates when these hate incidents occur, and public officials must support and implement policies that prevent harm.

I experienced an anti-Arab hate incident on the steps of City Hall in San Francisco today; during the Board of Supervisors meeting in which Arab American Heritage Month was recognized. I’m sharing my experience & recommendations on what to do if this happens to you. Video: Part 1 of 2 🧵

From the federal government to philanthropy, repression against movement groups fighting for a free Palestine remains on the rise. 18 Million Rising lost $250K in funding for standing with Palestine. But we refuse to be silent in the face of genocide. Read our story at bit.ly/18MR_PHILANTHROPY

A groundbreaking microscope at Harvard Medical School could lead to breakthroughs in cancer detection and research into longevity. But the scientist who developed computer scripts to read its images and unlock its full potential has been in an immigration detention center for two months
