As someone who turned down an invitation to Tel Aviv University in 2009, I realized then what you need to take in now: your violation of BDS is more impactful than anything you say in person to that audience- all of which they have many other ways to hear.

Last week, I was expelled from @Columbia for protesting the U.S.-backed genocide in Gaza. As president of @SW_Columbia , Columbia’s student workers union, I was also fired from my job. The Trump administration is pushing their narrative. Here’s the real story. 🧵

This isn’t just about First Amendment rights & citizenship. By smearing anyone who advocates for Palestinian rights as a “Hamas operative,” the Trump Admin is teaming up with pro-Israel groups like the ADL & AIPAC to make the entire pro-Palestine movement toxic & untouchable.🧵

A highlight of today’s Michigan Dems convention was seeing a large crowd boo AG Dana Nessel when Debbie Dingell called her name. For months now Nessel has put UM students through the wringer, pressing criminal *felony* charges against them for protesting the US genocide in Gaza.

Why did so many working class New Yorkers vote for Donald Trump last week — and even more not vote at all?
I went to Hillside Ave in Queens and Fordham Rd in the Bronx to find out.

If Dems and other officials do not hold the perperators of past admin crimes accountable *and* tackle the structural issues that made the US vulnerable to mafia state rule, all the Biden admin will be is a brief interlude between aspiring autocracy and entrenched autocracy.

Postdoc position on my FriendOrigins project. 10mos but could be 16mos with lots of low-hanging (but interesting!) fruit to be tackled in this replacement post for someone who got a permanent job elsewhere. See here, ref # S73438: jobs.exeter.ac.uk/hrpr_webre…. Due Sept 18, start Jan

If we want the war in Gaza to end, we can’t put our heads in the sand or ignore the voices of the Palestinian Americans in the Democratic Party. If we want peace, if we want real democracy, and if we want to win this election, the Democratic Party must allow a Palestinian American speaker to be heard from the DNC stage tonight.
Jacob Feder, PhD retweeted
No is not an acceptable answer. Please reconsider. We’re being extremely reasonable.
I’m waiting for the call from the Vice President’s team. I can’t go anywhere until the Vice President agrees to having a Palestinian American speak from the stage.
I’m waiting for the call.

STATEMENT: Uncommitted delegates urge the Democratic Party to reject a hierarchy of human value by ensuring Palestinian voices are heard on the main stage. We are learning that Israeli hostages’ families will be speaking from the main stage. We strongly support that decision and also strongly hope that we will also be hearing from Palestinians who’ve endured the largest civilian death toll since 1948.

Does the gut microbiome explain variation in fitness in wildlife? Our decade-long effort to answer this question in @SI_horses suggests that it does. Out in @NatureComms today:
