Another excellent letter from the @JSWE_CSWE editor, @DparrishParrish. She's not wrong - peer review is hard and necessary. I review 10-15 manuscripts/year and decline twice that many. Also, love seeing @amykrings et al mentioned. Looks like a GREAT issue.

Make no mistake, Israel’s genocide of Palestinians is this century’s greatest human catastrophe. We bear witness. We see those who are actively complicit but also those who are cowardly silent. This is today’s anti-slavery movement. Suffrage. Civil rights. Vietnam. South Africa.
