Almost everyone in my shelter is sick. We’ve been severely coughing & facing breathing difficulties, unable to go to a doctor as hospitals are already overwhelmed with victims. Today a doctor in the house just told me it’s COVID, spreading rapidly in overcrowded areas. #Gaza

The war is a tragedy for the Sudanese people. It has forced an estimated 6.7 million people to flee from their homes. According to aid agencies, this is “the largest displacement crisis globally.” #KeepEyesOnSudan fairobserver.com/world-news/sud…

I found Petro's linking of Gaza to imminent climate catastrophe to be very powerful. If First World governments and media can just explain away the deaths of tens of thousands of people - actively killed by an ally - imagine how easily they can write off faraway "natural" deaths

since some of you understand nothing until you center your own suffering: the treatment of gazan’s is your future in the oncoming climate crisis. watch and learn, there’s a hierarchy of lives and you are discardable. resistance is the only essence.

Sudanese journalists are in a unique and painful position — having to do their jobs while also being caught in the throes of this conflict. They’re reporting about what’s happening to their country, to their families. This clip caught that happening in real time.

With aid groups suspending their work, resistance committees have filled the void. Their informal networks -- once used to hold anti-gov protests -- are being utilized to rescue civilians and maintain social cohesion amid the war. My latest on #Sudan aljazeera.com/news/2023/4/22…

@mbira_tafari 'Her labor is as necessary as it is unwelcome. The university needs what she bears but cannot bear what she brings[...]What is that work and what is its social capacity for both reproducing the university and producing fugitivity?'

@mbira_tafari If one reads the formulation of the 'subversive intellectual' in Undercommons as his answer to James's captive maternal, then one could argue that he does consider it: 'After all, the subversive intellectual came under false pretenses, with bad documents, out of love..'

In the face of a feckless ruling class who deal only death and impoverishment, the people of Sudan resist in acts of remarkable vigilance. The demonstration today is a chance to keep faith with them. حرية سلام و عدالة و الثورة خيار الشعب

To safeguard the feeling of innocence, of benign, almost childlike purity, there is no cost too great.

Very rarely does power admit its viciousness. It cannot say 'let them call me bestial, let them call me monstrous'. It parades itself in perfumes and garlands. It needs to believe in its goodness, its benevolence, and wants you to believe it too.

That any attempt to acknowledge widespread, gratuitous harm experienced by women must also, always make room for the possibility that men's feelings might be hurt should leave no doubt as to who has the power and how determined they are to keep it.

Fascinating how well the theatre of Empire utilises our investment in the hero’s journey: the dragon is slain, the skies brighten and evil vanishes from the land. It tells us we have survived while the dead & dying remain uncounted.

@wazobiann Social mobility is defined practically by how much labor you can pass on to other people. The more work you can avoid the more work someone somewhere has to do.

@wazobiann Great point. The notion of rest is not inherently radical. Our imaginations are so perverted by capitalism that when we speak about rest we often accept/fail to consider that it most likely comes through someone else's labor.
