Arabic words like “shaheed,” “jihad,” and “intifada” are regularly mistranslated or misconstrued in English-language media to stereotype and demonize the movement for Palestinian liberation. But what do they really mean? 🧵1/8

Israeli airstrikes tonight across Gaza are reported to be the most intense so far. Massacre after massacre. Canada can’t claim to be truly concerned about the ‘humanitarian situation’ when it won’t even call for this carnage to end. #CeasefireNow

For @TheBreachMedia, I wrote about the current state of emergency in Alberta, what past wildfires have taught me about Albertans' readiness for a vision that loosens the grip of Big Oil— and Rachel Notley's seeming unwillingness to deliver it. #abelxn breachmedia.ca/2023-alberta-…

Jesus is risen! Why is this reality important for people in search of liberation from oppression? Isn't the resurrection simply an opium for the masses, giving them a false hope in a blessed afterlife without changing material conditions here and now? 1/4
