The beautiful #Bahai cemetery in #Ahvaz, which had belonged to the Baha'i community for 110 years, has been set on fire. Its ancient and sturdy trees were also cut into pieces. Why? Simply because of religious prejudice against the Baha’is. These heartless acts must stop immediately. #Iran #BahaiRights #OurStoryIsOne

While talking about knowledge translation strategies to my students and using this platform as an example of targeting younger groups (like myself 🙇🏻‍♀️), I was quickly humbled to learn that they do not use this platform and it is apparently only used by “older generations”.

The "evacuation" of Rafah is illegal. There are no "humanitarian" or "safe zones." Civilians are being forcibly displaced to areas totally unsuitable to human habitation. This is a crime against humanity.

My colleague @JustinPicheh asks @uottawa which side we want to be on: "If the answer is no to genocide, no to occupation, no to apartheid or no to taking hostages and political imprisonment, then the very least the leaders at the University of Ottawa can do is divest..." (1/2)

Earlier today I gave a speech at #OccupyTabaret (link below). Thanks to the students for the invitation & your inspiring organizing. I stand in solidarity with you. uOttawa needs to divest from the military & prison industrial complexes. #FreePalestine

Right now, two million people in Gaza are getting closer to starvation and the debate about who is to blame is sickening. The only “crime” that most of these people ever committed was being born there. The lack of total and fiery urgency to get aid to them is nauseating.
