Idris Robinson screen-capture from his seminal How It Might Should Be Done public talk. Text: As for Hamas, Robinson told the Guardian: “I definitely do not condemn the violence used by the Palestinian resistance. Palestinians have not been accused of perpetrating genocide, while the Israelis have been found guilty of doing so by the UN, Amnesty International and others. So the issue of whether I support violence or not is a ridiculous and immature question at this point.”

In any case, Robinson added, his main claim in both the talk and the question-and-answer session was that “the Palestinian people are not just passive victims. They have agency and there’s something to be learned from people who’ve been struggling for 75 years … about emancipatory political transformation.”

BREAKING: Texas State Fires Professor over Palestine Speech

Philosopher Idris Robinson is being fired for having principles.
He gave a talk on Palestinian resistance.
He would not condemn it.
Over a year later, TXST terminates his tenure-track contract. But he's fighting back.🧵

Here is a little drawing I did in my sketchbook of Casey Goonan, pen and ink on paper. 
Casey received a draconian sentence of 20 years in federal prison for burning a cop car and other actions in solidarity with the people of Palestine and against the forces of genocide. 
At their sentencing Casey’s lawyer read a statement on behalf of Casey that called for an end to the ongoing genocide in Gaza and to stand in support of Palestinian liberation.

Priscilla was arrested at a music festival in the Weelaunee Forest in 2023 for organizing meditation and opposing Cop City. She was jailed for over a month under ludicrous domestic terrorism charges, and now faces one of the largest political RICO cases in U.S. history.

The case against Peppy and Krystal arose out of an April 18, 2023, demonstration against a University of Pittsburgh-sanctioned event that promoted hatred toward transgender people and communities. The speaking event features notorious transphobes Brad Polumbo and Michael Knowles, and posed the question, “should transgenderism be regulated by law?”

BREAKING: DHS Detains Palestinian Student from Columbia Encampment, Advocates Say Agents told him his student visa was revoked. But he had a green card. Agents then said that was revoked too.

“He has a green card,” an agent apparently said on the phone, confused by the matter. But then after a moment, the agent claimed that the State Department had “revoked that too.”
