Criticism of biased media coverage of Gaza is often discarded as baseless..

so we set out to study the coverage of Palestinian and Israeli victims by German press systematically!

The resulting study 'Hierarchies in Death' was just published #OA by Peacebuilding www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

Pls join us in following the Global Sumud Flotilla as it attempts to break Israelโ€™s starvation siege of Gaza.

It will make more noise if more people are watching on YouTube.

So far over 60,000 people are following live.

I've been part of the movement to stop detentions and deportations since the early 2000s. I wrote a book about this movement, freely available here: mitpress.mit.edu/978026202820...

Never ONCE have I ever heard any activist on the left say 'anti-ICE.'

I'm not exaggerating.

Stepped out of my wheelhouse to work on this with my dear friend to analyse the violence unleashed on our students demanding justice for Palestinians and an end to genocide.

What should humanitarian actors do to stop the genocide in Gaza?

A powerful event held today by @newhumanitarian.bsky.social.

So refreshing to hear such powerful, reflexive, and challenging demands that the humanitarian sector has to do better in the face of this genocide.

Iโ€™ve done this for 2 weeks now and it *absolutely rules*. Best class discussions Iโ€™ve ever had. Best engagement with readings. They write in this worksheet for 15 minutes, then talk about their responses in groups of 3-4, then groups share with the whole class, and *then* we talk about the readings
