williamihorne.com •••• What remains an open question for us to answer is how to speak and to act how to implement a utopian praxis capable of seizing a livable future for one another and our communities. That praxis is in fact a three-fold process, first an assessment and critique of the world as it exists, second a sabotage of those existing systems grounded in an alternate vision of the future, and third the construction of an infrastructure capable of sustaining life. While we might sketch out some of the possibilities in mutual aid, in work stoppages, in self-determination, and in organizing, to do so here might be counterproductive since this new world should be born democratically, from the demands and desires of our communities. As Lorenzo Kom'boa Ervin puts it, the "people themselves must be in command, not leaders' (Ervin, 2021, p. 35). What we can say for certain, however, is that the history of these utopian movements, from emancipation and civil rights through ongoing movements for racial, economic, gender, and climate justice, show that this type of organizing can be successful and illustrate the possibilities for the struggles of today.

Tweet from Ofer Cassif: Settler terrorists killed Odeh Al-Hd'aleen, a resident of the Umm al-Kheir community in Masafer Yatta. Odeh, father of three, teacher, and well-known activist in Umm al-Kheir, who had accompanied journalists and activists for years and took part in the filming of the documentary "No Other Land", was reportedly shot by settler Yinon Levy, who has already been sanctioned for severe violence against Palestinians. This happened under the cover of the genocide in Gaza and with the full cooperation of Israeli authorities. Justice for Masafer Yatta! Stop the occupation! Picture of Odeh smiling from a vehicle accompanies the tweet.

This week, Donald Trump said Khalil’s arrest was just “the first of many to come”. Betar US quickly claimed credit on social media for providing Khalil’s name to the government. Betar, which has been labelled an extremist group by the Anti-Defamation League (ADL), a Jewish advocacy group, said on Monday that it had “been working on deportations and will continue to do so”, and warned that the effort would extend beyond immigrants. “Expect naturalized citizens to start being picked up within the month,” the group’s post on X read. (It is very difficult to revoke US citizenship, though Trump has indicated an intention to try.) Deporting speakers over supposed ‘propaganda’ is a stock authoritarian move Read more The group has compiled a so-called “deportation list” naming individuals it believes are in the US on visas and have participated in pro-Palestinian protests, claiming these individuals “terrorize America”. A Betar spokesperson, Daniel Levy, said in a statement to the Guardian that Betar submitted “thousands of names” of students and faculty they believe to be on visas from institutions like Columbia, the University of Pennsylvania, UCLA, Syracuse University and others to representatives of the Trump administration.
