I don’t know who needs to hear Jesse Jackson leading the kids on Sesame Street in this beautiful call-and-response reminding them that every child is somebody, but here it is

Paging @abbystein.bsky.social !!

👀 Invoking Orwell, a federal judge has ordered the Trump administration to restore panels and historical acknowledgments of the history of slavery that the National Park Service removed in Philadelphia. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Someone has sure already made this observation but the fact they can convert all those empty warehouses into prison camps means they could have converted them into housing, community centers, job training centers or, hell, libraries or schools all along. It’s always a matter of will not resources.

This is when we need to embrace both/and thinking!

On deck at the Book Bans conference this morning!

Day 2 of the Book Bans conference: currently listening to a chilling account of the “it’s not going to happen to us” to “let’s censor ourselves until things blow over“ pipeline by Elissa Meyers.

My favourite thing about today’s conference was the maximal Pippi Longstocking discussion. My childhood self was squealing!

Horrifying and powerful.

Starting now! I’m ready for three days of amazing talks on the politics of book banning!

Man, what a metaphor.

I wish I could say that I had something witty and impressive to say to those I’ve lost, but Zionism is Nazism by another name, and it’s just not possible to relate with them.

I’ve got a big week of conferencing ahead, including the Conference on the Jewish Left. After estranging myself from Zionist family and dear, old friends (it still fucking hurts), I need the reminder that there are Jews out there who KNOW that genocide is ALWAYS wrong.

STOP BEING REASONABLE WITH PEOPLE WHO ARE BUILDING CONCENTRATION CAMPS, TORTURING CHILDREN, ENGAGING IN DOMESTIC STATE TERRORISM, AND COMMITTING MURDER

A tan book cover that says THE SWEET TASTE OF EMPIRE in green letters and SUGAR, MASTERY, AND PLEASURE IN THE ANGLO CARIBBEAN KIM F. HALL in brown letters

My book,The Sweet Taste of Empire focuses on Anglo Caribbean, but shows the importance of sugar to the global economy & the racial order in the West. Bad Bunny turns the white mastery embedded in sugar/slave complex on its head: highlighting vibrant, resilient culture that emerged from history

Singer Bad Bunny dressed in a cream colored outfit and carrying a football in his gloved hand is walking through a mock field of sugar cane with workers wearing straw hats and holding machetes

Bad Bunny opening halftime performance by moving through sugarcane highlights colonial history that binds US, Puerto Rico & the larger Caribbean. Sugar everywhere in the performance - drinks, wedding 🎂, etc. Labor, desire & pleasure tied to the land.

Heck yeah!

My first book, Clothed Villainy: Acting White in Early Modern Drama, is now available for preorder and it has a beautiful cover that I absolutely adore: www.amazon.ca/gp/aw/d/0817...

Awww good animals! 🥬🥕🥒

Now put her back in a prison befitting her sexual violence against children. A camp is way too good for her.

Macbeth: SHIT

He does! I really enjoyed this one!!

@grahambrack.bsky.social , this might interest you (and Master Mercurius!!!)

Classic Zionist fantasy that goes unchecked because the whole disgusting network feels the same way.

It’s been a week since I read about Trump’s ”Calendar Girl“ parties and that vile piece of scum still hasn’t been arrested. Is that not enough to shut everything down?!
