No paywall on this Baldwin interview:

100+ years of denying Palestinians their right to self determination, claiming their identity didn't exist, taking away their homes - and yet Palestinians remain. Nothing in this world will convince this nation to forget. The sooner this is understood, the better it will be for everyone.

a screenshot of a comment translated from mandarin to english that reads:
"When we were young, our ideology teacher said, "The global village is one family," and the value of this statement continues to rise. You have never been Tiktok refugees; you have simply returned home as villagers of the global village."

So much work to do, so much pain about what’s already happened, and so much anxiety about what’s coming, but for now just thankful for the desperately needed respite. Sending love and strength to our brothers and sisters in Gaza.

Please stop using β€œrevisionist history” as a stand-in for falsehoods.

Any worthwhile work of history uses untapped sources, novel methodologies and/or new connections across fields to improve, alter and, yes, revise our understanding of history.

Truly revisionist history is a *good* thing.
