Dear humanity,
My son is in a critical state after being attacked by Israeli drones.
His small body is struggling to survive, and I cannot help him alone.
I plead with you – your compassion can keep him alive.

On the contrary! Nothing says "come to Washington, en masse, and be prepared to protest, sit in and Occupy, and, yes risk arrest" like the above.

I've now been allowed and asked to share more details about what's going down at the University of Oregon, which involves imminent announcement of firings, among others, of tenure-track and tenured faculty. Given the units impacted (see below), please share this with your professional networks in related disciplines and start getting ready to put pressure (or begin putting pressure already) on the University of Oregon upper admin to abandon this alleged plan before they finalize it. It appears that, with no prior consultations, the departments of Religion and Classics (two separate units), and the programs in Russian, East European, and Eurasian Studies, German & Scandinavian, Judaic Studies, Arabic Studies, and Holocaust Studies (the latter five all parts of a previously-consolidated mega unit called the Schnitzer School of Global Studies and Languages) are facing imminent announcement of elimination (expected the week of Sept 7), with layoffs of pre-tenure, tenured, and career faculty in these units. The reason given is "financial exigency" -- upper administrations of several universities across the country (and in blue states like Oregon also) appear to be giddy to use the context of Trump attacks on higher ed to dismantle the humanities. Faculty at OU won a faculty union not long ago; this may be, in part, a retaliation for that, I've been told. The union is working with AAUP, etc.; my understanding is that the maximum spotlight is needed at this point.
A massive attack on several humanities units (Arabic Studies, Judaic Studies, Holocaust Studies, Classics, Religion, German & Scandinavian, Russian/East European/Eurasian Studies) *and* tenure now unfolding at the University of Oregon (a blue state!). Closure of units and faculty layoffs threatened.

🚨 The Trump admin just took its most extreme step yet to roll back climate protections as a giveaway to the corporate polluters who got him elected.
But the @EPA works for us! Please protect our air, water, & climate, not polluters! share.sierraclub.org/s/FvgQwKyV

Huge failing of the "green" liberal establishment and their versions of the "Green New Deal" that don't even mention the fossil fuel criminals. #climatechange #systemchangenotclimatechange #capitalism #greenwash #ecosocialism

The drone was actively circling the vessel, which was located nearly 90 nautical miles from Gaza.
“We must demand immediate action for Gaza. Pressure your governments to stop enabling genocide and let the Handala proceed safely,” the group said.

Israel’s Heritage Minister Amichai Eliyahu said Thursday that his government is “racing against time to wipe out Gaza and its Palestinian population,” adding that the territory will become “entirely Jewish”
An epitome of commitment. Excellent musician, too!
