I highly recommend the exhibition. I reckon that the Trio is great too.
Londoners: Anyone here want a ticket to Trio Joubran at the Barbican tonight? Can't make it myself. Includes also entry to the Mona Hatoum/ Giacometti exhibition.

I've been thinking about this quote all day

"Every university in Gaza has been destroyed. The mass killing of Palestinians has also extinguished the knowledge, memories, experiences and indeed the histories that they carry as individuals. Genocide targets a people’s past as much as their present."
Writing History in a Time of Genocide
Anne Irfan asks, what does it mean to write the history of a place as it is being destroyed before our very eyes?

Happy to note that the opening ceremony of the @esasexuality.bsky.social conference features a strong condemnation of the Israeli genocide in Gaza. As my own presentation will illustrate, the struggle for gender and sexual freedom, should not be separate from other struggles for freedom and justice.

Every message that comes out of Gaza these days is more disturbing and more terrible than the last. Starvation and genocide must be stopped.

If you live in Israel, please join us in protest in Habima Square, Tel Aviv today at 19:00. The least we can do is say not in our names.
🚨BREAKING: The last journalists working for AFP in Gaza have said they can no longer work for the news agency.

They are out of energy and they are starving to death.

I have never seen a statement from a news organisation like it.

I am amongst the lucky ones, I remind myself, as I start another morning crying, over three babies who died of hunger perpetrated by my own government. I have the time and safety to cry and mourn. I am not scavenging for food.

I am staring at the first pages of The Tenacity of the Couple Norm, which I am supposed to re-read for my Viva, and the letters keep forming into my country's Minister of Defense declaring the establishment of concentration camps in Gaza.

If you speak Hebrew, I highly recommend this lecture.
Join me tomorrow (Wed) for my online guest lecture (in Hebrew) at the Cherik Center. I’ll explore the creation of databases of suspected homosexuals by the Israeli Police following dozens of "homosexual murder" cases, starting in the 1970s.

Every horror in the genocide in Gaza is revealed as just a prelude to an even more horrific one - the latest one being the repeated massacres of hundreds of starving Palestinians who walk for miles, risking their lives for the chance to get their families some food.

While I highly recommend this entire special issue of @lambdanordica.bsky.social , I have to say special thanks to @joejukes.bsky.social, whose article made me watch Bend It Like Beckham, which was one of the most charming and fun movies, I've ever seen, with so many layers of queer intimacies.

הייתי אתמול ביריד האלטרנטיבי. היה מקסים וחמוד להפליא, עם דוכנים של אנשים שאוהבים ספרים ואוהבים לדבר עם אנשים על ספרים, ובוחרים בקפידה כל פריט בדוכן. שקט ונעים ולא ממוסחר ומלא הוצאות שאני רוצה לתמוך בהן. מומלץ בחום.
שעות היריד:

10.6 עד 12.6 (ג' עד ה') בשעות 17:00 עד 22:00
13.6 יום ו' בשעות 10:00 עד 17:00
14.6 שבת בשעות 11:00 עד 21:00

בואו, יהיה כיף!

Unfortunately, I also believe it to be a likely scenario.
Just putting it out there: I don't think it's at all far fetched the IDF could kill Greta and/or her companions. Would have been unthinkable before the current war, because of the implicit caste system we apply even to foreign activists, and because of the backlash to...

A PhD is a rough journey and when you embark on it, you don't expect to write it as you go through a global pandemic, 5 election campaigns, war and genocide. But in the midst of all this it was written and done and last night it was, finally, submitted.

We've known this for a long time, and now it's coming from Israeli soldiers testifying about the main goal of demolitions in Gaza: preventing the possibility of Palestinian life.

With over 70,000 children hospitalized for malnutrition, Israel's blockade on the Strip has left parents to watch helplessly as their children waste away.
