“The more I learn about genocide, the more shocked and embarrassed I am by my own ignorance. Once I actively tried to be better informed about genocide, the picture in Gaza became terrifyingly clear” — powerful and brave personal essay by my NYU colleague Lihi Ben Shitrit for @forward.com
As an Israeli political scientist, I resisted thinking this war was a genocide. Here's what changed my mind
The incitement for genocide in the Israeli public sphere is undeniable. So why are so many of us liberal Jews so reluctant?

I’m heartbroken to hear that Richard Alba passed away. I’ve been so fortunate to have him as a mentor. Beyond his many accolades, what made Richard special was how he mentored people. He showed me how to be generous with your knowledge and genuinely invested in others’ success.

Butler on Trump: "To be gripped by his statements is precisely the aim of their utterance. We are in some ways in its thrall when it captures and paralyzes us. While there is every reason to be outraged, we cannot let that outrage flood us and stop our minds."

Condemning genocidal killing and ethnic cleansing should be a matter of course for an engaged and critical academy defending human rights and fundamental democratic values.
