The campus protests & responses to them make me feel grateful to Clark University for giving us space in the 80s to speak up about S. Africa & Nicaragua. Mateo Jarquín's excellent piece in madebyhistory shows what happened in Nicaragua after the West moved on. UNC Press

I just want all of our students to be safe, the people of Gaza and the West Bank to be safe, the hostages to return safely. Wishing peace to all who mourn and justice and power to all who raise their voices and organize against violence and dispossession. #NotInMyName
