A lot of white people still don't get it. This isn't a gaff. You're not only embarrassing yourself. You don't owe me, harvard, or twitter an apology. You recorded yourself calling your classmates “n—rjocks.” This isn't about PC. This is about abuse. Harvard is right to rescind.

The n-word isn't just "shocking," like you gently described. 16 years old is not too young to comprehend the fucked up history invoked when someone not black uses it. This isn't about you, Kyle. It's about your classmates, whom you were callously racist against.

Can we stop saying Hamas controls Gaza? The Israeli government controls their borders, the air and maritime space, they restrict the movement of people, all imports/export so the economy, imposes energy restrictions, even the population registry. Hamas does not control Gaza.

This is what it looks like when twitter is hijacked and turned into a tool of harassment. Can't @jack @TwitterSupport do anything to take back control of their platform?

Notice btw that all all of these tweets emanating from right-wing pro-Israel accounts calling for Trump to “ban” me are using the same text, copied & pasted. If this isn’t a targeted, pre-meditated, racist harassment campaign against me, then what is @Twitter / @TwitterSupport ?

I got to George Floyd Square Saturday afternoon, and around 3pm I joined some activists for a birthday barbecue they were having. It was interrupted by gunshots coming from a block away. Talked to some folks about why the tension is so damn high:

Pretty sure this will be looked at as badge of honor by Trump and his supporters.

Today is the day! My new project Man Up on @SlatePodcasts just dropped. Not gonna lie, it’s kinda scary leaving so much of myself out there, but I’m learning that making myself vulnerable helps others to be too, and I think we need that now... More here:

“I can be proud of wearing my hijab, support women who choose to wear it and AT THE SAME TIME support women who are being arrested for being forced to wear it. It’s possible to hold all of these positions.”

And here’s a truck driver dragged out of his vehicle and beaten by a rampaging mob. Are these “white supremacists”? If so, white supremacy sure looks different than I expected!

Does @Jack think calling an American star athlete a jihadi because she wears hijab is "newsworthy or for public interest"? Outrageous that this kind of vitriol isn't considered abuse of this platform.

HOLY SHIT! The Ann Coulter tweet that has 100s of complaints is BLOCKED in Germany and France, but on FULL display here. @jack @TwitterSupport , this is shameful. You block it for hate in other countries, but leave it up here??

Wadee's mom, Hanan Shaheen, was nearly killed in the attack. She was stabbed 12 times with a 12-inch serrated knife. She hadn't spoken to any press before she met me. I asked her why she said yes to my request, she said "to show the people I am good."
