A Day for Gaza
Today, The Nation is turning over its website exclusively to stories from Gaza and its people. This is why.
You can find all of the pieces in our "A Day for Gaza" package here.
We're doing this to reaffirm our commitment to cover Gaza and to let its people tell their own stories. And we urge our media colleagues to make the same commitment. This story is not over.

A Day for Gaza
Today, The Nation is turning over its website exclusively to stories from Gaza and its people. This is why.
Media coverage of Gaza has plummeted. So today on @thenation.com, we're doing something pretty special: we're only running pieces by people in and from Gaza.
We're calling it "A Day for Gaza." You can find links to all of the incredible pieces here. Please read! www.thenation.com/article/worl...

I think a major factor in so many people being kind of blasΓ© or in denial about ~all this~ is that theyβve been waiting to be given some sort of paternal-ish permission to start freaking out.
So, here ya go. Hereβs the permission.

Never Again
On 15 months of genocide.
Never again to genocide. Never again to apartheid. Never again to Netanyahu and Biden and Blinken. Never again to genocide denial and apology. Never again to treating Palestine as a minor issue.
Never again to all of it. www.discourseblog.com/p/never-again

"Never again." Thatβs what youβre supposed to say about genocide. So I wrote for @discourseblog.com about all the things we should say "never again" to after 15 months of genocide in Gaza.

Look At This Loser
Mark Zuckerberg's kowtowing to Trump is noxious and ugly. But most of all, it's pathetic.
Two things:
1. Mark Zuckerberg looks like a clown.
2. His Trump standom is gross and ugly and all of thatβbut mostly it is pathetic. This is loser behavior! These tech giants are LOSERS and we should say so.
