One day away from this year's In Solidarity with Palestine roundtable from the CAWS + EO teams, where I'm honored to share, in the company of so many brilliant comrades, a set of reflections on academic Classicism and its reverence for death under the heading "Anticipating an Antigone in Gaza"

Princeton’s prejudicial prosecution of the 13 who occupied Clio Hall for πŸ‡΅πŸ‡Έ continues. Because I personally held ground and refused to plead guilty, the courts are forcing 12 comrades who would have had their cases dismissed to stand trial too.

9 months later, Princeton still refuses to drop charges against 13 students who held a peaceful sit-in protest in support of Palestine. Please sign in support of the students, especially @aditilrao.bsky.social who's bearing the brunt of the university's ire

Indiana’s Midnight Executions Are a Relic of Another Age Indiana wanted to kill Joseph Corcoran under the cover of darkness, but one journalist slipped in to witness.

On the night executioners killed Joseph Corcoran, a glowing inflatable snowman stood on the front lawn of the Indiana State Prison wearing a top hat and frozen smile.

Biden has yet to pardon anyone on federal death row, yet to pardon Steven Donzinger, but he has pardoned his son and this insult-to-life judge who made millions sending kids to juvie.

No hell could be hot enough, no punishment too severe for Joe Biden.

Joe Bidens pardoning a corrupt 72 year old judge who fed thousands of children into our nightmarish carceral system demonstrates that he does indeed have some notion of solidarity

Kyle Rittenhouse is allowed to get away with murder. Daniel Penny is allowed to get away with murder. Cops get away with murder all the time. The people pearl clutching about this CEO killing are really concerned with who was killed, not the act of killing.

Anne in 2002 you called for the killing of Palestinian journalists for the crime of simply making Israel and the US look bad. This year Israel, consistent with your position, has killed 150+ journalists in Gaza. Is it your opinion that killing Palestinian journalists β€œsuppresses real journalism”?

If your employer says "we're a family," or "we have an open door policy," you need a union.
