Israel has assassinated almost 270 Palestinian journalists.

This is aimed at suppressing coverage of its livestreamed genocide and creating a media blackout ahead of its plan to commit further atrocities. Take action now.

Submission to the colonial logic that vilifies the violence of the oppressed & turns a blind eye to the oppressor’s violence became the price of admission.

The above thought by Mohammed El-Kurd is an indictment of our (academics) refusal to confront our complicity in upholding colonial difference.

All around us institutions built on/sustained by our own labour are hollowed out by a lethal mix of mismanagement, moral decrepitude, and political inertia. No time to sit silent—Organise and mobilise whenever/wherever you can.

I hate the indifferent. I believe that living means taking sides. Those who really live cannot help being a citizen and a partisan. Indifference and apathy are parasitism, perversion, not life. That is why I hate the indifferent.

Thousands of people gathered today in #Belgrade to demand accountability from the Vučić regime for the 15 lives lost in Novi Sad, in what appeared to be yet another corruption scandal. The protests are led by university students.
