Lula 💪✊
Incredible turnouts in the streets of Brazil these past two weeks.
The people. They were the campaign.

🧠Debate about campus policy must reach the people who write it.
@IUBloomington’s HxA Campus Chapter hosted a Heterodox Conversation on institutional neutrality with @tomginsburg and John K. Wilson. It drew about 150 students, faculty, and administrators, and led to follow-up meetings with the chancellor and provost.
Chapter co-chair Mark Fraley is one of many members using HxA’s Campus Chapter network to make change on his campus.

En Brasilia hay una regla:
No hagas fotos aéreas de tus manifestaciones porque todo parece pequeño.
El acto en apoyo a la reelección de Lula fue la excepción este domingo.

Pay attention, world.
A group of European diplomats was assaulted in the West Bank, allegedly by Israeli settlers, a day after an attack by settlers that seriously injured Post photographer Heidi Levine. wapo.st/3Uvc3e0

Israeli President Isaac Herzog apologized on Saturday to Washington Post photojournalist Heidi Levine after she was injured in an attack by Israeli settlers in the West Bank the previous day, after Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu questioned her account.
Netanyahu cast doubt on reports of the incident, saying footage did not establish responsibility and that "serious accusations require serious evidence"
The president's response came as former heads of the IDF, Mossad and Shin Bet expressed support for Levine, saying they were "deeply ashamed" that Jewish extremists continued to attack Palestinians, those who assist them and those documenting the violence. | @lizarozovsky

For a brief summary of the book: blueprintforsocialism.com
Today 'The Blueprint' by @mikejbeggs, @JacobinBen and @sunraysunray was released (this is my review copy). I cannot recommend it more strongly, my favourite book of the year. It brilliantly blends socialist horizons with a sober analysis of how such an economy could actually work

There is a pressing need for the kind of left-wing intellectual organization in Canada that the LSR once was and does all it can to shape narratives and public opinion through engagement with traditional and new media. perspectivesjournal.ca/lsr-i…

🇧🇷 | LA VIRALIDAD DE LULA
El gran hito de la campaña del PT ha sido la Movilización Social Híbrida. La réplica de lo de las calles en la asimétrica dimensión digital de lo político. El día que Meta quiso censurarlo, solo quedaba hablar de él híbridamente. Y lo hicieron viral:
