      The Families of Gaza: Sumud as Collective Endurance

      We cannot understand Gaza’s endurance through a binary that casts Palestinians, individually or collectively, as either heroic in their resistance or passive victims. Rather, we must approach it through a decolonial conception of sumud (steadfastness): a historically situated, relational, and materially conditioned practice of collective endurance that emerges, shifts, and persists within ongoing colonial violence.

Inside Project Esther’s plan to silence pro-Palestinian activism

The Trump administration’s crackdowns on pro-Palestinian activism look eerily similar to a conservative proposal to target universities and international students it claims are part of a “terrorist support network”. Who is behind the plan, and what will its impact be?
