Brilliant open access essay of Ethnic & Racial Studies SI on the 'how' of racism. Esp that institutions require 'mechanics' to run--and those 'mechanics' are people!
Bonilla-Siliva & Lewis reorient the discussion in a meaningful way. Power does not operate of its own volition, they suggest.

Conjuring Catastrophe: Dysphoric Writing, Word Spells and Dissident Rituals

To coincide with Leicester Pride this year we're debuting a new project: 'Communion: A Queer Christian Zine', created with an ethos of grassroots organising and radical sharing, with the finished product being freely available for anyone to print and distribute among their own communities.
Affirming Christians and liberation theology, that’s what good Christians are made of. If their God walked among us today, he’d hold these truths close… and the evangelicals wouldn’t even recognize him.
I’m at the airport en route to #EABSBL, so it feels like the perfect time to send a copy of my book, Reimaging the Magdalene, on a journey too!
💛 like and 🔁 RT and I’ll draw a winner on the feast of Mary Mag (22/07, heathens)
Let’s see where it ends up…

They say there’s hope in poetry. There are no poets, no children here. Come back, poets & children of Gaza.
I’m reminded of Amrita Pritam’s invocation of the poet Waris Shah in ‘Aaj Aakhan Waris Shah Nu’, eliciting his response on the endless murders of Punjabi women at Punjab’s partition in 1947.
Colonial-loot museum is hosting an Indian-themed gala. I don't know what's more offensive: normalising engaging with colonial loot -- did the funds dry up -- or 'fancy-dressing up' Indian.
The DARE Primer on Global Queer Theologies

#GlobalSumudFlotilla is a collective, non-violent act of resistance and international civil disobedience. People from around the world join at sea to challenge a blockade that denies fundamental rights and has cost countless Palestinian lives. 1/
Check out this exciting new handbook, especially the fabulous looking essay by the inestimable Kori Pacyniak! @kpacyniak.bsky.social
I’m very proud to have a chapter (on queer and trans Jewish theologies) in this volume, which looks stacked with excellent contributions.
Excited to see the Palgrave Handbook of Queer and Trans Studies in Religion come out today! I've got a co-authored chapter in it on trans ritual and so many of the other chapters look amazing! link.springer.com/book/10.1007...

For colonizers, a revolution led by “subhuman” colonized peoples is impossible. That is, until it comes knocking on their door to take what rightfully belongs to them.
2023 tweet; still valid.
Global North academics repeat after me:
Since I did not raise objections to the genocide, I shall not teach courses on decolonisation, decoloniality, post-genocide literatures from Palestine or other cognate ‘radical’ courses that advance my career & help me procure grants.
Read Fanon:
Quotes infra are from Culture & Racism in Toward an African Revolution. Prescribed reading for my u/g.
Racism has not managed to harden. It has had to
renew itself, to adapt itself, to change its appearance. It has had to undergo the fate of the cultural whole that informed it. 1/2
You can’t see rainbows from underneath the rubble. Equally, you cannot in good conscience celebrate Pride in the west while knowing that many of our countries are supplying the arms & funds that are killing queer Palestinians & … their families.

One thing is accepting those who begin to take more radical positions. Another is excusing those who enabled genocide, denied it, & legitimized Israel’s Zionist project yet suddenly want to be slightly critical. Imagine showing this much grace to those who supported Nazi Germany.
Western leaders aren’t “finally waking up” to the fact that Israel is committing genocide. They’re active participants in genocide who are in desperate need of reestablishing the facade of “western values.” But it’s too late for that.

This piece pushes at the edges of whiteness studies by bringing decolonial thought—something I’ve been sitting with for a while. Grateful to
@jairofunez.bsky.social walking through this work with me—this piece means a lot.
“Decolonial” scholars who remain silent on the genocide in Gaza are the absolute worst. They’ve advanced their careers on something they consider a topic to be written in the past tense.
Scholars who claim to be “progressive, human-rights loving, anti-racist, decolonial, intersectional, open-minded refuse to so much as whisper one word: Palestinian.

40 fake beheaded babies are more important than the 14,000 babies that will die if aid is not allowed in. Let that sink in.
