Geopolitics of Infrastructure comes at a critical time to address the role of art and culture to imagine – and organize! – internationalist infrastructures for #selfdetermination in the 21st century. Here one of my contributions: New World Embassy: #Rojava (2016):

You fucking see what this is, right?
#concentrationcamp #fascism #genocide

You are exterminating a people. You are burning our children. You might still be alive, but is living what we can call you after what you have done? And do you think you will be able to live with our eyes on you? We will never let you be.

#noforgiveness #genocide #ourchildren #freepalestine

(2/2) Fascist not just because of the occupation regime’s authoritarianism, its supremacist ideology and racialized efforts to dehumanize a people, but because of the sickening and cruel joy that is shown in what Masha Gessen rightfully described as “the liquidation of the ghetto.”

#nakba

(1/2) Today we commemorate the Nakba – the catastrophe that never ended, culminating into the genocide of Palestine. What we are witnessing, what we have been speaking out against, is fascist extermination of a people and its culture by the Israeli occupation.

Happy International Workers Day to earth workers of all times and all worlds. And now and always: Free Palestine.

Must read, because genocide is enabled by geno-silence: the violent silencing of others, through exterminative or censoring acts, and the violent silence of those standing by:

Because #genocide is planned #extermination of a people and its #witnesses. Via #DemocracyNow

Just these fucking headlines: its not a “war,” its a #genocide. And media and political, educational and cultural institutions that reproduce language of sanitization are fully complicit in normalizing the systemic and sadistic mass extermination of Palestinian peoples and their children.

The past three years, I worked with Radha D’Souza, Lucia Pietroiusti and Serpentine Galleries on the third chapter of the Court for Intergenerational Climate Crimes: The British East India Company on Trial. Join our public jury April 5-6:

Where They Can’t See Us. Another beautiful graphic pamphlet by @golrokhn about going intraplanetary — about going underground to make new soils and grow more roots — in times of neofascism and technofeudalism.

Rest in power Mitchy Mallorca-Saturay, dear comrade. You were always there when it was necessary: an organizer and cultural worker in all your being. You lived your life by your ideals, embodied them in your generosity and fierceness — that makes you an example to all of us.

“Appears”? When the ideas are fascist, the policies are fascist and the actions are fascist, then its fascist.

#trumpfascism #violenttransferofpower

You don’t hand over the keys of your institutions and the safety of thousands soon to be deported citizens to a fascist. That is NOT a “peaceful transition of power”: its a profoundly VIOLENT transfer of power to the de facto leader of the global neo-fascist order. #violenttransferofpower
