@MisuseCase@StillIRise1963 This was really good: “Examining the ADL’s Antisemitism Audit A line-by-line reassessment of the organization’s data illuminates the flaws in its methodology.”
by Shane Burley (Why We Fight: Essays on Fascism, Resistance, and Surviving the Apocalypse) and Jonah ben Avraham
@inthehands@mekkaokereke I’m not the usual kind of Prof. I take an artist’s perspective. I never compare students’ work to others. Making comics is new to some in the class & not to others. My questions when grading are simple: did the student engaged with the teachings, did they exhibit growth, did they work hard on projects from their individual level of storytelling development? I give a lot of “A”s. My work is to open students’ voices, not shut new voices down.
Picking up the pieces of our grief “As Israelis and Palestinians retreat inward, it is extremely difficult for those of us who are trying to hold both peoples’ pain. But we must try....” By Noam Shuster
“Ministers from our fascist government who try to visit the Israeli survivors are being yelled at and chased away. People are blaming them for what happened. But it is like we do not have a voice, because there is no challenge to how the government is responding. People are too busy with survival...”
“And even though the government is nowhere to be found when we need them, somehow, miraculously, it still has time to arrest hundreds of Palestinian citizens of Israel for sharing or liking a post on social media that expresses sympathy with the people of Gaza.”
“And when two activists in Jerusalem from the Standing Together movement hung posters saying “Jews and Arabs will overcome this together” in Hebrew and Arabic, they were detained, their posters confiscated by police. The state can, it seems, function when it wants to.” https://www.972mag.com/picking-up-pieces-grief-israelis-palestinians/
