1/ This is the most persistent myth of academia I have encountered in my career: there is no disinterested position from which to objectively study/teach history, culture, etc. You have to be white to believe this. The medieval university we inherited was political & still is.

To put as fine a point on it as possible: seeking asylum already is a legal pathway. We don't need to "expand" it. We need to simply follow the law and protect it.

I am once again reminding you that neither “illegal” nor “undocumented” (as nouns) are categories in U.S. immigration law and asking people to simply define what they mean by one of those terms is the easiest way to figure out who actually knows what they are talking about.

Still thinking about the Congress meeting yesterday where the Federation claimed there was no contradiction in the McGill admin simultaneously assuring Congress attendees that campus is safe despite having filed multiple injunctions in recent weeks explicitly saying it is not.
