Today I screened Massacre River: The Woman Without a Country about Trujillo's 1937 #genocide of Haitians & the denationalization ethnic Haitian Dominicans in my class Borders, Diasporas, & Transnational Belonging. Streaming live? Anti-Haitian march in Santo Domingo by La Antigua Liga Dominicana.

"Resisting the New McCarthyism and Complicity from UMass to Palestine" with Rabab Abdulahdi @UMass Boston
"Zionism will come to an end"

Excerpts from the dissenting opinions by #SCOTUS justices #Sotomayor (first two images) and #Jackson. See the full ruling at static01.nyt.com/newsgraphics...

Univ of Massachusetts Boston has learned that Homeland Security revoked the F-1 student visas and terminated the non-immigrant statuses of two current students and five other members of our university community including recent graduates participating in training programs.

@bostonglobe.com complicity meets hypocrisy. Protests don't make the front page of the print edition, not even below the fold. Nor does the revocation of 5 international students' visas at UMass Amherst. But online, protests are front and center.

Puerto Ricans don't pay taxes?!

This is apparently the letter @umasschan.bsky.social sent those whose offers have been rescinded due to the federal funding mess. On top of everything else: they will receive "priority consideration" should they choose to pursue future admission. Not a deferral. "Priority consideration."
