BREAKING: One of the most important and prominent reporters on the ground in Gaza has been Anas Al Sharif.
He - and several other Al Jazeera journalists - have just been assassinated by Israelis forces whilst in their press tent in central Gaza.
Speechless.

This is also what we call memory activism. A stance required by the very nature of the field. Working on remembrance cannot leave us indifferent to the suffering that politics of memory, infortunately, cannot prevent - but it also reminds us that memory activism is a source of hope and struggle.

It's so distressing to see the attempts to deny the reality of starvation and genocide in Gaza--even among scholars of the Holocaust. That's why we started this group: to stand against complicity and denial and to create new intellectual and political solidarities.
