And that's it. No PEN World Voices Festival, no business as usual during a genocide. In awe, admiration, and gratitude for the tireless work of Writers Against the War on Gaza, PEN America workers, and the principled writers who have led this call for institutional accountability. Free Palestine.

If you’re setting up a liberation library at your Gaza solidarity encampment and you’d like some rad books, write to us at orders[at]haymarketbooks.org and we’ll send some free books to get you started x.com/Maia_Elsner/st…

Framing this as a “suppression of discourse” is galling. PEN America expected writers to keep providing them with labor and time while ignore the org’s glaring “except for Palestine” stance. Writers said no and the org has refused to change. So writers have withdrawn their labor.

Hey CNN I'm interested in knowing more about Hind. How old was this woman? Who killed her? How was she killed? Was it an accident, or a targeted execution of a 6 year old, where even the paramedics who tried to help her were murdered in the attempt?

Your help is needed now more than ever. Please join us in supporting Emergency Response Rooms and other Sudanese-led efforts in Sudan. These volunteer-led relief efforts provide vital services to thousands across #Sudan. To donate, visit sudansolidarity.com.

We urge you not to listen to anyone who tells you to stop donating because the crossing is closed or any other reason. The situation on the ground changes by the minute, not by the hour or the day. Our people will need support regardless of the current situation on the ground.

I flipping hate this move so much. Sudanese people have stood alongside Palestinians for *time*, and are almost never the people peddling this line - the folks doing this as bad faith actors using a horrific situation to make a gotcha political point, not bc they care about Sudan

Beautiful thread of films from/about Sudan, an under-represented film industry that has produced some stunning films in the last many years despite having to work against the grain of government and institutions

If you’re in London there is going to be a screening of Goodbye Julia and a fundraiser for Sudan on June 9th! Do not miss it! 🎫: genesiscinema.co.uk/movie/sudan-fu… #KeepEyesOnSudan

For our June issue, we’ve partnered with those driving change and bringing attention to Sudan. We hope this issue serves as a catalyst to understand the war, appreciate Sudan’s rich cultural heritage, and hear its contemporary voices. To save Sudan is to save ourselves.

In the aftermath of Israel's invasion of Lebanon in 1982, June Jordan and Audre Lorde had a falling out over the issue of Zionism. I've traced it across three archives, and it may be the most important story I've ever told. Read it, but more importantly, read June Jordan.

It has now been confirmed that the UAE-backed RSF Militia have looted the Sudan National Museum. Antiques dating back thousands of years from one of Africa’s oldest civilisations have been taken.
