This section of last night’s email from Columbia’s President is a perfect distillation of liberalism: rhetorical gestures to freedom, rights, and care underwritten by the direct coercive threat of violence. It’s all there.

We 300+ academics and researchers urge the NCAA to refrain from further impeding transgender athletes from accessing NCAA sports by discriminating against and marginalizing this minute group of athletes based on their identities.

This is incredibly antisemitic in that it entirely dilutes and contorts the meaning of pogrom such that actual histories of anti-Jewish violence are erased… all in the name of very real and ongoing genocide today.

Excited to share the first fruits of my college football research project w/ Derek Silva (OA!): "‘Play’ing College Football: Campus Athletic Worker Experiences of Exploitation"

TL;DR: campus athletic workers know they are exploited.

This fundraiser is for a good friend of ours in Durham who is in serious need. The request does not come lightly and any contributions would be hugely appreciated. Without a vehicle she can’t work or give her girls the life they deserve.

GBV is a fact of high-performance sport, but it has nothing to do with the trans athletes it has been weaponized against. Gender justice in sport includes justice for trans athletes.

Just days after a professor of gender studies was stabbed. This is the thinnest plausible deniability.

This testimony from the U. of Waterloo stabbing underlines the fact that it is pretty clear that virulent, violent transphobia has become a core tenet of "normal Conservative" politics today.

The discursive project of fascism is to convince you that that power dynamics are upside-down. Dominant groups and people are ‘oppressed.’ Marginalized people are in fact dominant ‘oppressors.’

The beneficiaries are the elite of the capitalist class.

New Brunswick is the frontline of a continent-wide legislative war vs. trans people that seems to always start with the question of participation in women’s/girls' sport.

Did you know that Canada *still* has a men-only golf course, one that happens to be the nation’s highest-ranked course?

Trans participation in sport is a (bullshit) 'commonsense' way of introducing a potentially genocidal war on trans folk. Thus, regardless of whether you accept premises around 'fairness in sport,' the only fairness that matters is the right of trans people to exist as themselves.

Despite the obfuscatory attempts of the N.B. Minister of Education to suggest otherwise, predicating the use of a child's preferred name and pronouns on parental consent *is* a form of coercion with potentially dangerous consequences.

Nothing to see here except a former college football player recalling the time he had FOURTEEN "stingers" in a *single* game.

also, just say "RACIST"

This is and has always been the whole story. Sport is simply never as important as basic human rights.
