I can’t believe I have to say this, but historically, masked men who kidnap families in the middle of the night are usually not the good guys.

Today I commemorate Hind Rajab, who would've turned seven years old today if a US-backed genocidal Israel hadn't violently & intentionally exterminated the terrified girl, left waiting amidst the corpses of her family for an ambulance crew Israel massacred, with over 300 bullets shot from a tank.

I want us to study the history of resistance to slave catchers right now. I want us to study how slave catchers worked, how they were sanctioned, who paid them, and why they did what they did, right now. I want us to study the hyperlocal and networked ways slave catchers were impeded. Right now.

This is why we have a "Rasheed gets assassinated, maimed, or disappeared" production plan for Dreams on a Pillow, his game about the Nakba. Israeli terrorists, Israel's occupation, and the US genocide all mean we have to prepare for this outcome for him, too.

Honestly the US should continue to throw around its sanctions more and more recklessly so the entire planet will just move to a less US-focused system. Sanction the Dutch for the ICJ? Go for it. Sanction Canada. Sanction Denmark. Sanction the EU & NATO. Sanction everything. Let's get this over with.

The Tulsa Race Massacre was not committed by an uncontrolled mob but was the result of “a coordinated, military-style attack” by white citizens, the Justice Department said in a report. It was the first time the U.S. government has given an official account of the 1921 massacre of Black residents.
Tulsa Massacre Was a ‘Coordinated, Military-Style Attack,’ Federal Report Says

Not to suggest a genocide and the fires are the same thing, they're not even on the same scale, but they are both horrifying symptoms of money and power lacking accountability for the genocide and the increasingly devastating and common effects of global warming. They're not separate issues.
