I'm going to plead one more time for all of you to remember this isn't a game, this isn't an opportunity for you to get clicks or show off your punditry skills. There are real people dying, and real people from this place that can see how flippant you're being. And it's fucking enraging.

As an Indonesian who grew up w/ stories abt how my ancestors fought against the Dutch armed only w/ bamboos & machetes it's clear to me that the colonized must fight their colonizers w/ whatever they have & whichever ways available to them. #PalestineResists #fromtherivertothesea

Can't wait to be back in Indonesia. To be grounded in the soil and society that nurture my scholarship. Sound, sights, and smells that adorn my work. Wisdoms and knowledge(s) that guide my inquiries ❤️

One thing that I still miss from this app is my interactions w/ Indonesian folks. Those who speak our language, and actually dwell in our issues. Where my Indonesian folks at?

Even now as an international scholar I spend much energy, financial resources & time 2sustain my immigration status. Just last week, my employer & close family who r americans/canadians didn't believe that I can't even do layover in the US w/out US visa stamp on my passport.

So glad that I greet & check in with my research dialogue partners regularly on social media and whatsapp. Now that I am about to resume my fieldwork, they are already opened to the conversation #BorderTheologies

It was a great forum w/ brilliant discussion from Dr. Benjamin Hegarty abt his book, The Made-Up State! I literally can't emphasize more of how important this book is for the field of Indonesian Studies. The Indonesian Decolonial Hangout crews learned a lot from Dr. Hegarty today!
