Professor Derek R. Peterson, a University of Michigan historian and MacArthur Genius Grant recipient, thanked “pro-Palestinian student activists” during a graduation speech today, for “opening our hearts to the injustices and inhumanity of Israel’s war in Gaza.” Peterson teaches history and African studies at the University of Michigan, where he also became chair of the faculty senate in 2025.

🚨 Actualización. La mayoría de nuestros compañeros de la Global Sumud Flotilla están libres, pero no así los coordinadores Thiago Avila y Saif Abukashek. Thiago es brasileño y Saif de nacionalidad española y sueca, pero por su origen palestino podría ser detenido bajo el régimen brutal de la "detención administrativa", un régimen ilegal y extrajudicial aplicado por la entidad colonial a los palestinos, a menudo sin la imputación de cargos ni juicio de ningún tipo, basado en presuntas "pruebas clasificadas", que puede derivar en detenciones sin término. Por eso la situación de Saif es especialmente delicada. Cabe destacar que Saif no se proponía llegar a los territorios ocupados, sino descender por seguridad en algún puerto previo: la inteligencia israelí, por supuesto, lo sabía. Aún estamos a tiempo de evitar el secuestro extendido de nuestros compañeros y su confinamiento en alguna mazmorra israelí, en donde Thiago ya fue torturado tras la interceptación de la última flotilla. El activismo humanitario no es un delito; la piratería, el colonialismo y el genocidios sí lo son. Exigimos la libertad inmediata de nuestros compañeros, el resguardo de su integridad y el paso libre y seguro de nuestra flotilla hacia Gaza.

And when he wins a settlement against NYC we, the people, will pay. At the very least that money should come out of the NYPD budget. Why are we paying for police brutality?

@prem_thakker @alihadi68 As you sit in protest, you are standing up for human rights. Thank you @JvpAction

New York — Two years after students occupied Hamilton Hall (naming it "Hind's Hall" in ode to the little girl killed by Israeli forces), Columbia students & faculty are demonstrating on campus, honoring Palestinian scholars killed by Israel's genocide. Video: Sunrise Columbia

The former head of the Mossad is comparing the actions of Israeli settlers in the occupied West Bank to Nazis in the Holocaust. If someone said that in the West they'd be accused of antisemitism under the IHRA definition.

@QudsNen @BeaumontBee Free him now

Calls for urgent solidarity are rising as Ilyas Abu Safiya, the eldest son of Palestinian pediatrician Hussam Abu Safiya, appeals to the Italian people to mobilize before April 28. Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya has been detained by Israeli forces since December 27, 2024, 485 days without charges, trial, or justice. With the looming threat of Israel’s new death penalty law for Palestinian prisoners, the family fears Hussam could be among the first condemned.

🗣️Tell Congress: Close ALL Detention Centers! The Melt ICE Act would close all detention centers & release our neighbors back into our communities, where they belong. Join me & United We Dream in demanding members of Congress co-sponsor the Melt ICE Act: actionnetwork.org/letters/demand…

Are they all horrible people? Billionaire CEO John Catsimatidis: The homeless should “live in Uganda for $8.13 a day. We'll give them the check for $8.13 a day, let them live somewhere else.”

@Blart3ine @alon_mizrahi @Substack I hope not

@alon_mizrahi @Substack I wonder if you’ve been de-platformed, Alon 😡

@StanleyCohenLaw @dianamoukalled Very miserable

@dianamoukalled May they find a miserable ending

نشرت مجندة اسرائيلية صورا لها من منزل جنوبي.. أكثر ما يوجع في هذه الصورة أنها تجعل الفقدان قاسياً إلى حدّ لا يُحتمل. الحديث هنا عن بيت ما زالت فيه خضاره، ما زالت فيه حياة أهله، لكنهم هم وحدهم الغائبون قسراً. هم ممنوعون من العودة، فيما جندية من جيش الاحتلال تدخل المكان، تقطف وتطبخ وتضحك كأن البيت بلا أصحاب. كأن القرى الخمس والخمسين الممنوعة على أهل الجنوب لم تُفرغ من ناسها، وكأن هذا الخراب كله لا يكفي. المشهد مهين لأنّه يختصر كل شيء: اقتلاع الناس من أرضهم، ثم تحويل بيوتهم وحدائقهم إلى مساحة مباحة للغزاة. هذا احتلال وإهانة متعمدة لذاكرة الناس وكرامتهم وحقهم البديهي في أن يعودوا إلى ما زرعوه بأيديهم.

@dianamoukalled @ofer_n May this stolen food and stolen land be a source of bitterness until Palestine is free @JVPBoston
