I feel so lucky that I got the chance to chair this wonderful and timely keynote by @drpaulinehenry.bsky.social at #IPCITI2025. More relevant than I could have ever hoped for my own thesis exploring traumatic memories in my feminist translation of Memoria de la melancolía.

There are videos on X showing episodes of police brutality against the protesters. Netanyahu and his allies have reportedly been inciting against the protesters, including calling them “Hamas supporters.”

Sally Rooney says she will support Palestine Action despite ban The Irish novelist says

She can say this because she's an Irish citizen living in Ireland.

Say it in the UK and you could face 14 years in prison. Crazy.

the stories that come out of the ICE camps are going to look like the stories that come out of every camp system; rampant corruption, epidemic disease, physical and sexual abuse on a vast scale, a death rate far higher than normal, and medical abuses.

Can we stop calling these atrocities "deportations." These people sold to El Salvadorian prisons were not deported. Deportation is a process that did not take place. They were rounded up and removed with no process. They were kidnapped, not deported.

We are calling for a nationwide and international boycott of all Elon Musk-related products and services. Sell your Tesla shares, avoid buying Tesla vehicles, cancel Starlink, and delete your X accounts.
