In these polarized times, I want to be clear: All students — Palestinian, Israeli, and of every background — are safe and welcome with me. This includes your identity, history, culture, lived experience, dreams and aspirations. This has always guided my teaching and always will🙏

@BriannaWu ❤️ I’m not active here anymore, but felt compelled to tell you that I am Jewish, and I support you and trans rights 100%. You don’t deserve the hate. You are unusually thoughtful and moral in a largely thoughtless and performative world. ❤️

I am happy to stand with a national security strategy by Trump when it makes sense and I’m happy to stand against antisemitism at home. But I will tell you this. All these right Wing Jewish figures spewing transphobia constantly sure make wonder why I’m injecting the hate into my life standing with you. I have to remind myself it’s not what the average Jew thinks. But it’s so hypocritical.

@Bar39667Baron My 2023 post about this hospital incident in no way "defends continuing systematic mass murder." You have strayed well beyond protecting truth into extreme, baseless, and biased accusations. This ends our correspondence.

@Bar39667Baron I'm no Netanyahu fan but I don't see any quotes or evidence that he confirmed the story. I also doubt Biden's claim was a thoughtful deception, more likely one of his many gaffe/senile moments -- though a higher stakes one to be sure. Anyway, thanks again for the correction.

@Bar39667Baron It’s false, but from what I’ve gleaned it wasn’t body recovery teams. A reporter said they heard someone say it, told others, but in their report only wrote ‘killed’ not beheaded. Both the IDF and Israeli govnt declined when asked to confirm the story. But it went viral anyway.

@Bar39667Baron I think I've already addressed these issues -- unless you think I had a specific memory of this 2-year old retweet but kept it hoping no one would notice? Honestly, at this point it feels like you're just picking a fight. But thank you for flagging the false info. Truth matters.

@Bar39667Baron Truth absolutely matters, and I live my life accordingly. This includes being receptive to relevant feedback (like yours) and owning my mistakes. But I am not here for insults to my character. And I don't think those are productive. So let's please not go in that direction.

@Bar39667Baron I don't trust anything 100%. But I did see Biden as fundamentally 'good' despite his flaws, and I did see CBS News as among the more reputable outlets -- so at the time I saw it as converging reports from two of the more reputable sources. Happy to be corrected. Truth matters.

@Bar39667Baron I'll add that at the time both Biden and CBS News reported it, so I didn't have reason to distrust it. But I agree, getting things right matters, especially when the stakes are high. So I'm going to delete it. Because your snapshot is here, there will still be a record of it.

@Bar39667Baron Definitely not. I'm happy to be corrected on anything in good faith. And I haven't been going through posts from two years ago to vet them! I don't want to give the appearance that I'm hiding any posts by deleting them, but it does appear I should delete this one.

This commentary offers a clear, powerful statement of why freedom of speech is at the heart of democracy and must be defended, whether the speaker is Charlie Kirk or Jimmy Kimmel, MAGA supporters or MAGA opponents.

I remember why I left twitter so I'm leaving again. It's too right-wing. Plus, it's useless to tweet about why the world is burning: people don't care, already agree, or misunderstand. Good luck all. (Feed will stay unlocked for transparency bc I think students are monitoring)

All of this is f-cking gross. It's inexcusable how the world has tolerated, and supported and emboldened, Hamas. And Netanyahu has jumped the shark and poured gasoline and rained fire upon a humanitarian catastrophe.
Kareem Jouda@kareem_1087

Hamas must realize that the people of Gaza will continue to curse it, and Hamas’ presence in Gaza will be criminalized after the war, forever. We will not forgive you for this genocide. You handed over our lives to the most extremist government in history, left us without any protection, and you are still thinking about negotiating? Negotiate over what? Our spilled blood—does it mean nothing to you? Are you negotiating over our extermination? Shame on you and on everyone who supports you outside Gaza.

This is normal. I recently hid my Jewish ID from a business and a govnt agency to avoid prejudice. And if you’re a Jew who is against the Israeli govnt but dares to push back against Hamas or anti-Israel bias, you are now *all* the worst things: genocidal, dehumanizing, unsafe.

Palestinians are not the threat. Hamas is. And we are not Hamas. We don’t call them freedom fighters or resistance. Only in the West and in the diaspora do they call them those things. We Gazans know exactly who Hamas is: a terrorist organization that has stolen our future and held us hostage in our own land. @HowidyHamza

ps 5/5 Lastly (perhaps)… if you are a student who feels unsafe for any reason because of something I’ve said or posted, please know you’re welcome to reach out. I understand it can feel scary — I will meet you with respect, curiosity, and sincere interest in your experience.

1/x I stopped using Twitter awhile ago, but there's apparently a public effort to say my feed: - Dehumanized Palestinians & denied identity - Justified innocent deaths - Spread fake allegations - Opposed all student protests This is untrue, so I'm transparently reopening my feed.
