in case anyone is under any confusion here - we are WAYYYY past a ceasefire deal now - this is a liberation movement which demands nothing less than the full dignity, freedom&security of all who live under violent military occupation - this is a demand to end Israeli apartheid

⚠️ Confirmed: Live metrics show a nation-scale disruption to X/Twitter across #Pakistan ; the incident comes amid political turmoil after a controversial election held under an internet and mobile network blackout 📉

Pakistan’s military used every trick to sideline Imran Khan—and failed. Now what? time.com/6693147/pakist…

We must stand with the Pakistani people as their democracy is at serious risk. They should be able to elect their leaders without interference and tampering with the process, and the U.S. must ensure our tax dollars don't go to anyone undermining that.

my colleague Sonya Fatah and i reflect upon the chilling effect of attacks on press freedom in Gaza — on the frontlines and in North American newsrooms. in the The Walrus: thewalrus.ca/gaza-press-fre…

As journalists in Gaza navigate threats on their lives and the destruction of their homes, diasporic journalists abroad are also grappling with censorship in their newsrooms, and the effect on press freedom resonates far beyond the current crisis.

There's something hard for us, children of the colonised, to articulate because the world is upside down. Europe and its descendants, can't differentiate between principle and episode. This is why Germany (and much of Europe) is doomed to be genocidal. Here is what I mean. 🧵

The arrogance of a racist and unprofessional journalist

BREAKING: Israel just murdered another Palestinian journalist, Ahmad Khair al-Din.

Israel has now killed 105 journalists in Gaza in 83 days.

105 journalists.

Much needed reminder for many people in the wake of everything: objectivity is a privilege afforded to white journalists only.

20 000 Palestinian lives and 66 days.
Thousands upon thousands of Canadians taking to the streets to demand representation. That’s what it took.
It’s not enough.
We want an end to the sale of Canadian arms to Israel. We want an end to the occupation.

Let there be no mistake: this vote in favour of a ceasefire was not a benevolent awakening by Canada. It was the forced result of relentless mass organizing and pressure on the state every day for the last two months.

Don't ever believe a word a colonial power tells you about an oppressed or occupied people. Ever.

An open letter asking for more balanced + transparent reporting on the genocide that's unfolding in Palestine at the hands of the Israeli government.

Some clowns will try to silence you, but today is not the day (neither is tomorrow, or the day after) 🙂

could not care less about the clowns slavering for journalists to be “disciplined” & fired for signing this letter, but for what it’s worth I would rather be jobless than spineless

Today, I join dozens (and counting) of my fellow journalists in Canada in condemning Israel's killing of journalists in Gaza. We urge fair, accurate, context-driven coverage of the war from Canadian media. If you're a journalist, please consider signing: forms.gle/HQjdKTpqnAiz36…
