I teach pre-service science teachers about race/biology/genetic - pseudoscience is the foundation of systemic racism. This is my 8th year, we start w/: What is race? I wish I’d documented but the wild/racist propaganda esp targeting young men shows up way more often now in my course, it’s chilling!

She’s mad that Bad Bunny who is Puerto Rican and primarily sings in Spanish (and is a fucking ICON) is headlining the superbowl, she also thinks you should have to sing in English at other non sporting events. And I bet she was stone cold sober and she’s really not very good at not speaking Spanish

Cal State system targeted for antisemitism probe by the Trump administration The 22-campus system is the latest higher education institution in California under investigation for alleged antisemitism.

I’m terrified for our campus communities! The CSU is under 2 federal investigations. And, alarmingly β€œCal State LA was subpoenaed by EEOC to turn over the PERSONAL phone numbers and email addresses of ALL EMPLOYEES.” They want a LIST of ALL employees! This is so dangerous!
πŸ™πŸΌ @laist.com for covering!

Jamal Khashoggi, the Washington Post, and the Cost of Speaking Out As Saudi Arabia hosts comedians and courts gamers, the silenced voice of Jamal Khashoggi still echoes.

I wrote this piece about 7th anniversary of Jamal Khashoggi's murder.

On the costs of speaking the truth in today's world.

And how Jamal's memory still stalks Saudi Arabia--- and the Washington Post.

Thank you, given all going on for you, for honoring him & reminding us we must find/demand answers. The hypocrisy re: free speech enrages me to my core. I have no platform but I find writing op-eds lends a form of peace, a landing place for my swirling ideas/anger. I hope this did the same for youπŸ’›

Yes and also one doesn’t just become inhumane and evil suddenly, i don’t joke about mental illness, I genuinely think he’s a sociopath, there must have been warning signs early and often!

Let’s not forget his outpouring of racist AI generated videos of democratic leaders rather than actually meeting with folks, as the government was shutting down….

I know, me either! it is unconscionable that instead of negotiating, the president of the United States of America is throwing out vile racist dehumanizing videos? It’s so shameful and I don’t use this word lightly, but entirely INSANE!

I don’t makes jokes about mental illness, I honestly think he is a sociopath, he was born and raised in privileged so Cal/Malibu, there is something deeply wrong with him
