As such, today's Death Panel is an episode in two parts: Part One — One Year (0:00:00 - 0:20:45) A statement on one year of genocide from us at Death Panel through parts of three texts from the past year. Part Two — Body Politics w/ Jasbir Puar (originally released November 21st, 2022) Beatrice and Jules speak with Jasbir Puar about the violent global effects of settler colonialism and how they shape our understanding of what we mean by “disability” and “debility.” We discuss how events like the ongoing genocide in Gaza and the bombings in 2014 are often described through the number of dead, when they also entail mass disablement and mass debilitation, and how colonial occupation itself can be understood through a theory of debility.

This episode was originally released for Death Panel patrons on November 21st 2022. We are re-releasing it today, alongside a new transcript of the conversation, because in the past few weeks we have found Jasbir's work tremendously useful in understanding the enormity of what's happening in Gaza. Episode description: Beatrice and Jules speak with Jasbir Puar about the violent global effects of settler colonialism and how they shape our understanding of what we mean by “disability” and “debility.” We discuss how colonial occupation itself can be understood through a theory of debility, colonial constructions of who is labeled a "terrorist," and some of the most important insights from Jasbir's 2017 book The Right to Maim.

Why do some scholars sacrifice truth and logic to political ideology and peer acceptance? With courage and intellectual integrity, queer scholar-activist Corinne Blackmer stages a pointed critique of scholars whose anti-Israel bias pervades their activism as well as their academic work. In contrast to the posturing that characterizes her colleagues' work, this work demonstrates true scholarship and makes an important contribution to the field of Israel studies. In Queering Anti-Zionism: Academic Freedom, LGBTQ Intellectuals, and Israel/Palestine Campus Activism (Wayne State UP, 2022), Blackmer demonstrates how the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) movement that seeks to delegitimize and isolate Israel has become a central part of social justice advocacy on campus, particularly within gender and sexuality studies programs. The chapters focus on the intellectual work of Sarah Schulman, Jasbir Puar, Angela Davis, Dean Spade, and Judith Butler, demonstrating how they misapply critical theory in their discussions of the State of Israel. Blackmer shows how these LGBTQ intellectuals mobilize queer theory and intersectionality to support the BDS movement at the expense of academic freedom, open discourse, and intellectual integrity.

Dans ce hors-série sur les sexualités et genre afros, nous recevons Joao Gabriel doctorant en histoire à l' université Johns - Hopkins à Baltimore aux Etats-Unis et fondateur du blog de Joao, un espace de réflexion politique. Dans cet épisode (2/2), nous aborderons la question diasporique dans la lutte contre l'homonationalisme et l'hétéronationalisme, l'autodétermination radicale des minorités sexuelles et de genre et du panafricanisme. L'entretien : 3. Dans la diaspora Comment penser la condition des LGBT afros dans un contexte occidental et français par exemple ? Comment à partir de cette position LGBT ou queer afro diasporique en occident est-il possible de lutter contre l'impérialisme ? Comment distinguer le rejet de l'homonationalisme de l'homophobie ? N'y aurait-il pas un risque que le rejet de l'homonationalisme ne devienne une intellectualisation de l'homophobie ? 4. La libération des minorités sexuelles et de genre et la question du panafricanisme La libération des MSG afros est-elle compatible avec le panafricanisme ? Les références : Une Afrique homophobe ?

Join Deepa Kumar, Noura Erakat, Naomi Klein, Jasbir Puar, and Keenaga-Yamahtta Taylor to discuss Islamophobia and the Politics of Empire. In Islamophobia and the Politics of Empire, leading scholar Deepa Kumar traces the history of Islamophobia from the 16th century to the “War on Terror.” In the twenty years since 9/11, she writes, Islamophobia has functioned in the United States both as a set of coercive policies and as a body of ideas that take various forms: liberal, conservative, and rightwing. This particular form of bigotry continues to have horrific consequences not only for people in Muslim-majority countries who become the targets of an endless War on Terror, but for Muslims and those who “look Muslim” in the West as well. Importantly, Kumar contends that Islamophobia is not simply religious intolerance or the reaction of an empire in crisis; it must be recognized instead as racism—the kind that manifests in mass surveillance, arbitrary arrests, and deportation, much like other forms of centuries-old systemic racism. And this anti-Muslim racism in turn sustains empire.

This is a conversation with my dear friend, Palestinian- Lebanese Writer & Academic Joey Ayoub We discuss the situation on the ground in Palestine, how all of us can (and need) to stand in solidarity with Palestine, and why Israel - a nation founded on 'never again' - is engaging in ethnic-cleansing and the systemic extermination of the Palestinian people. For more resources on Palestine, Joey recommended the following: Palestine +100 The book of Gaza Larissa Sansour (her films) Elia Suleiman (her films) The Holocaust and the Nakba: A New Grammar of Trauma and History And for a comprehensive list of resources, please check out The Fire These Times reading list on Palestine: https://thefirethisti.me/readinglist-israelpalestine/ Matt (Asia Art Tours) highly recommends the following: Joey's Podcast Interview with Maya Schkolne on Israel and Paelstine: https://thefirethisti.me/2021/05/16/special-episode-a-conversation-on-israel-palestine/ Jasbir Puar's: Right to Maim Achille Mbembe's: Necropolitics For more with Joey please follow him at the Fire These Times, his immersive project of global solidarity that takes the form of podcasts, newsletters and other forms of media: https://thefirethisti.me/about/ Music is by Eskot! https://www.youtube.com/c/ESKOTbeats/videos?view=0&sort=p&flow=grid

In light of what's been happening in Palestine I am re-releasing my conversation with Mohammed Sulaiman from last year. Mohammed is a Palestinian writer and researcher who grew up in Gaza and currently works at the University of South Australia. The core of our conversation was Mohammed's two essays for Hummus For Thought: Wretched of the Earth: Thoughts on Syria, Palestine and Discourse (2016) Israel and ‘The Right to Maim' (2017) Topics discussed: growing up in Gaza and surviving the Israeli wars and blockade; his and his partner's difficult journey to Australia, himself via Israel and herself via Egypt; the Western Left's failures on Syria and Bosnia as well as its relationship to Palestine; the dehumanisation of Palestinians and Syrians; Israel's politics of domination; Israel's ‘right to maim' as inherent to colonial logic through Jasbir Puar's work; and Palestinians being asked to show gratitude by self-appointed ‘saviors'.

This is a conversation with Mohammed Sulaiman, a Palestinian writer and researcher who grew up in Gaza and currently works at the University of South Australia. The core of our conversation was Mohammed's two essays for Hummus For Thought: Wretched of the Earth: Thoughts on Syria, Palestine and Discourse (2016) Israel and ‘The Right to Maim' (2017) Topics discussed: growing up in Gaza and surviving the Israeli wars and blockade; his and his partner's difficult journey to Australia, himself via Israel and herself via Egypt; the Western Left's failures on Syria and Bosnia as well as its relationship to Palestine; the dehumanisation of Palestinians and Syrians; Israel's politics of domination; Israel's ‘right to maim' as inherent to colonial logic through Jasbir Puar's work; and Palestinians being asked to show gratitude by self-appointed ‘saviors'.

James talks to a psychologist in Germany confronting one of the most startling strategies used by the far-right: homonationalism. The concept of homonationalism was developed by Jasbir Puar, a professor at Rutgers. It's often used to describe how far-right parties like the Alternative for Germany ally with LGBT community to vilify Muslim immigrants. That's a particular concern for Aileen Kakavand, who counsels LGBT migrants and refugees with Muslim backgrounds. Kakavand condemns the hypocrisy of far-right politicians like Beatrix von Storch and Nicolaus Fest for pledging to protect homosexuals from Muslims while seeking to curtail homosexual rights. First, Tom and James talk about populism and pop music. Kanye West, Lorde and Taylor Swift are among stars who’ve plunged into politics. Plus, who knew Mick Jagger spoke Polish?"Beethoven Symphony No. 9 in D minor, Op. 125" by Papalin is licensed under CC BY 3.0"Arp No. 9" and "Muscovite No. 9" are played by Lara Natale Support the show (https://euscream.com/donate/)

A powerful conversation about neurodiversity, neurodivergent scholarship, disability justice, immanent critique, the experiential and political aspects of disability and neurodiversity, and of course, magic. Sara Maria Acevedo is a neurodivergent mestiza, activist scholar, educator and disability justice advocate born and raised in Colombia, South America. She has served as a Diversity and Disability Advocacy Fellow at California Institute of Integral Studies and is currently a Fellow in the Center for Writing and Scholarship. She’s also the co-founder of the National Coalition for Latinxs with Disablities and serves on the board of directors. Her current research explores activism as history making and qualitative collaborative research methods to challenge oppressive systems impinging on the right of disabled communities to produce cultural and political spaces of inherent value by and for themselves. Sara is currently exploring and documenting the politics of self-direction and self-governance across neurodivergent grassroots communities serving autistic and otherwise neurodivergent transitioning youth in the Bay Area. She utilizes activist ethnographic methods as a strategy to amplify the voices and lived experiences of disabled communities living oppressively at the intersections of race, class, gender expression, sexual orientation, religious practice, and political affiliation. Sara recently received an honorable mention for the Irving Zola award from the Society for Disability Studies for her paper, “Neuroqueering Compositon: Sensual Reflections on the Inconclusive Life of Thoughts,” which she reads from during our conversation, and I think will be a real treat for you all to hear. Sara is a doctoral candidate in the Anthropology and Social Change Program at CIIS, and both her pedagogy and scholarship as well as her grassroots work invite a re-figuration of disability as a vibrant political and cultural experience as opposed to a flat clinical diagnosis. Notes: A written transcript of this podcast will be available later today! Sara Acevedo's piece, "Neuroqueering Composition" cannot be reproduced without her permission. Scholars Sara cites during interview include: Deleuze and Guattari, Elizabeth Povinelli, Jasbir Puar, David Mitchell, Sharon Snyder, Shelley Tremain, Michel Foucault.

Join B and John as they welcome back Rachel and collectively explore two chapters from the now-classic text by Jasbir Puar, Terrorist Assemblages: Homonationalism in Queer Times. Topics include issues of empire, frames of war, bodies and affect, the concept of homonationalism, as well as the disposability of certain bodies and identities. You’re also invited to […]

Sima Shakhsari reads from Queer Times, Queer Assemblages by Jasbir Puar, collected in the Routledge Queer Studies Reader, edited by Donal Hall and Annamarie Jagose. "…National LGBTQ organizations…have been far more preoccupied with gay marriage and gays in the military than the war on terrorism or even the 'homosexual sex' torture scandal at Abu Ghraib."
