“I knew that if I remained on this path — sequencing, down to the last detail, the annihilation of a people, without working to stop it — then facts would become worthless to me.” Stunning essay by a former New Yorker fact-checker, now writer & organizer: bidoun.org/articles/house-ar…

“Rhetorically, this was among the less-remarked gifts of this campaign: to see and speak to working people in both the bonds of universality and with the dignity of specificity.”

pause and read this brilliant discussion of bruce's new book "Atrocity: A Literary History" by two of my favorite thinkers and friends, bruce robbins and grayson scott <3 (middlemarch mentioned also)
How should we think about historical violence? The passage of time certainly makes a difference. But how much of a difference? What kind of difference? @graysontscott talks with @BruceRobbins6 about his new book on how we came to understand atrocity. thebaffler.com/latest/the-ba…

Thanks to @nplusonemag for republishing our note on the student movement. “Palestine has compelled a new generation to come face to face with the urgent, essential paradoxes of building an anti-imperial politics within the belly of the imperial beast.” nplusonemag.com/online-only/…

Thank you Mark, this is a lung-collapsingly good review! Lisa Borst writes better than I do and is funny and she understands things about me that have puzzled me for a long time.
Absolutely in awe of this review by @lisa_borst, which manages to be 100% authoritative and deliriously fun and entertaining at the same time. This should be impossible! But it turns out it isn't. The treatment that Nicholson Baker deserves. bookforum.com/print/3004/nic…
