RIP Vartan Gregorian.
A native of Tabriz, Iran, Vartan was truly unique. Rarely has a person this important and influential, been this kind and gentle.
Vartan, the President of the Carnegie Corporation, passed away today š„š„š„ https://t.co/ajLyXxHdMr

So looking forward to this panel with @PeterBeinart, Asli Bali, and @joshua_landis on the humanitarian impact of broad-based economic sanctions. Do these broad-based sanctions advance or violate human rights?
RSVP now!

if you work for @marcorubio, I have lots of things I'd like to ask of you. But i'll settle for this. The unsubscribe link on your press release emails (which I never signed up for in the first place) doesn't work. Please fix it so I can make them stop.

Iām still in reporter mode, so I havenāt yet opened my phone to see and reflect upon the names of the people I cared about who died in Afghanistan, but thatās what Iāll be doing later.

This is the problem with being an anti-bigotry organization in the US but opposing equality for Palestinians. You have a glass jaw. As I wrote a while back, white nationalists like Carlson see Israel's system of ethnic privilege as a model for the US https://t.co/lsBLxhWxhX https://t.co/Hvrft9iRb3
After the ADL called on Fox News to fire Tucker Carlson after his segment last week on demographic change and political power in America, Tucker points out that the ADL made the same argument that he did when it came to Arabs in Israel. https://t.co/vprhqLxm8H

It's all cribbed from Ann Coulter's almost comically racist manifesto, Adios America, which be the most influential conservative book of the 21st century https://t.co/IKjnUvdU0f
After receiving so much criticism for his recent open promotion of white nationalist "replacement theory" he's doubling down. Of course. https://t.co/Z7csXDuN0z

It's not the textbooks: when oppressed people hate their oppressors, it is less because of the books they read or television shows they watch than the injustice they suffer in their daily lives argues @PeterBeinart https://t.co/STFU5v15hs
