Seeing photos from the Met Gala between the corpse of a young girl with her throat ripped open and a doctor picking up pieces of skin and intestine to throw into a body bag with the rest of a mangled body and thinking that not a single thing about this world can remain as it is.

An ever relevant 🧵
During my first year as a PhD student at Yale I was taught that there is no innocence in the postcolonial world. Decolonization is a messy, violent, incomplete business. It is a dawn that is not the dawn for which we waited, followed by a very long midnight.

"International law was always ineffective when confronting settler-colonialism, for the system was never intended to challenge the West and its satellites. This is about to change." What a beautiful piece. 👇🏼
At World’s End: Palestine, the ICJ, and a New Dawn in International Law explores how South Africa v Israel marks the end of the settler-colonial era and the impunity Euroamerica wielded over international law. 🧵coming tomorrow https://t.co/btNqWAIJ9N

This is the kind of the day that reshapes our discussions of law, of politics, of racism. If you are a scholar not yet engaged in this battle - about the forces of life, what it is to be human, what we owe you each other - I really don't understand what you are trying to learn.
