Canada ran a segregated Indigenous hospital system for thirty-five years—and most Canadians have never even heard of it. Author Elaine Dewar uncovers a parallel health network that was chronically understaffed, medically inferior, and rife with abuse. https://ow.ly/t4Ln50YPwA7

One of the assignments my students had to do this term was to write a short critical essay about impacts of the use of AI on black feminist knowledge, and life experience of black/subalternized communities. I've started grading their work and I have to say I am proud of their work 😍

Darkness had fallen on 27 June 1985 when Fort Calata, Matthew Goniwe, Sicelo Mhlauli and Sparrow Mkonto set off on the 150-mile drive back from a meeting of anti-apartheid activists in the South African city of Port Elizabeth, now known as Gqeberha. They never made it home. /1

There are at least three major news stories about sexual assault and abuse of power by men in prominent positions this week. Government, labor, academia; the culture is everywhere, and women disproportionally bear the weight of the consequences. If this week feels extra heavy, be kind to yourself.

CROCKETT: Professor, are you saying you believe it's constitutional for the US to blow up people that are accused of being drug traffickers? "It's not going to be a yes or no answer" CROCKETT: I'm going to stop you there. It's unconstitutional.

It’s always funny to me how white Christians will call everything demonic except the real Demons: themselves and their death cult

A major coalition is launching a general strike in Minnesota tomorrow, aimed at pushing out ICE. It includes: -Amalgamated Transit Union Local 1005 -The MN AFL-CIO -SEIU Local 26 -UNITE HERE Local 17 -CWA Local 7250 -Saint Paul and Minneapolis Federations of Educators -Faith leaders And more. 🧵

From my hometown of Forest Lake: "Ice is working with Forest Lake police. Police are asking apartment complexes for access to buildings for 'possible medical emergencies' shortly after they requested that ice was in my building knocking on doors."

Amazing sob story: "ChatGPT deleted all the work I hadn't done" www.nature.com/articles/d41...

The US has the highest maternal mortality of any developed country … and it’s about to get a lot worse. Why? Pregnant women are afraid to go to the hospital for care. They’re labouring at home alone because ICE will grab them as soon as they give birth. This is dystopian.
