I grew up under a terrifying authoritarian regime. Mahmoud Khalil's arrest is right out of their playbook
Mahmoud Khalil's arrest by ICE reminds one professor at Columbia University, Khalil's alma mater, or her childhood in authoritarian Romania.
"The constant fear of repression, deportation or disappearance that I grew up with is not one that anyone should experience, ever again.
Today, I cannot help but think about Mahmoud Khalilβs history and the traumas that his unborn child could inherit."

this was such a wonderful interview to do!! I adored chatting with the extraordinarily brilliant and eloquent @annikaschmeding.bsky.social about her work -- listen (and read the book!!) to learn so much about the nuances of leadership and authority in Afghanistan's Sufi communities
