I haven't posted here since I joined. I just thought to come back & see what everyone is talking about here. Scrolling through the news feed, I don't see anything about Palestine. That's all I see on X. This is the most important human rights issue of our generation...

I would love to connect with other scholars, academics, writers, and artists here, especially if all the above!

I am also on Medium and Substack and I look forward to sharing my work from these platforms, and hopefully connect with others there too!
