Yesterday I wrote about how Turning Point put many of us on the Professor Watchlist
What I didn't write about was the years of harassment from the right, including rape, deportation & death fantasies that played out in my messages, comments in the stories about me & voice mails. That’s his legacy.

The harassment campaign of mostly Black & Brown women & queer junior professors was effective. Some of were fired, others were silenced, all were harassed. The right learned they could attack & that universities would not fight back. It was a blueprint for attacks on higher ed more broadly 3/

Dr. Subini Ancy Annamma is an Associate Professor of Education at Stanford University. Following the controversial killing of an unarmed black woman by police officers in Seattle, Annamma tweeted that, “The systemic violence that killed Charleena Lyles is the very foundation of the country.” She then went even further by saying, “There is no time to return to make America great again, unless you are deeply invested in white supremacy & killing of black & brown people…to secure your own white property through racism, ableism, [and] cis-heteropatriarchy.”](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:kds45jbet7t424osjnv5zlhm/bafkreibkekyrxoa2so2j7xeq5hdufbsjvmw33n2kfp7w4ktlytpyry4ob4@jpeg)

I actually believe we can have nice things. Homes, and neighborhoods, food on the table, free time. A planet to live on. Theater and dance, and guitar that will break your heart. The trick is, we just have to keep fighting for them because some people want servants, too.

@eckes-uva.bsky.social and I wrote a @verfassungsblog.de post on the silencing effect of the Energy Transfer v Greenpeace lawsuit before the N. Dakota court which resulted in a finding of $660 million of damages for Energy Transfer, one of the principal companies behind the Dakota Access Pipeline.
"Silencing Greenpeace"
A North Dakota jury has ruled that Greenpeace must pay hundreds of millions of dollars over pipeline protests.
CHRISTINA ECKES and PHILLIP PAIEMENT argue: The Greenpeace case is a significant test for the EU's Anti-SLAPP Directive.

Interesting to see that Shell have revised their CCS assumptions down quite significantly, for both their 'ambitious' scenarios and their 'archipelagos' ('evolving policy') scenarios
Fundamentally still absurd relative to the reality, but interesting. Shell deleted their CCS target in March last yr

Just watching the NOS evening news in NL. The news discourse around Israel-Palestine has evolved so much over the past year and a half. It is shocking and relieving to hear the news speak clearly and directly about the threat of ethnic cleansing and the Nakba history. Unbelievable.
