Here Where We Live Is Our Country
The Story of the Jewish Bund
Hardcover Edition
480 pages
Published in 2026
by One World
An award-winning writer and illustrator follows the story of her grandfather’s involvement in a freewheeling group of Jewish revolutionaries to question whether the world was ready for their vision of multiracial solidarity—and whether we are today.
Molly Crabapple first discovered the story of the Jewish Bund when her mother showed her a trove of her grandfather's old paintings and letters. Sam Rothman was a rough-and-tumble kid who worked at a tannery deep in the Pale of Settlement in 19th century Russia. He discovered that he was an artist--a brilliant interpreter of life in his Jewish village--and soon after that he was a revolutionary, enlisted in the strikes, street fights, and study groups of the Jewish Bund.
Molly saw herself not just in his career but in his revolutionary inclinations--Molly spent much of her life in revolutionary enclaves around the world, marching in the streets and dancing till morning. In the Bund, she discovered a movement of artists, philosophers, working people, and street fighters who had a utopian vision for the world. As Jews--a people always on the margins--they understood themselves as a people who needed special protection. But as Marxist revolutionaries, they also saw themselves as part of an international solidarity that rejected all forms of ethnonationalism. They fought for this vision in the parlors, cafes, battlefields and prison camps. Their ideas sparked the Russian Revolution, which soon swept them aside. They fought with the emerging nationalist movements sweeping Europe. And they battled Zionists over the destiny of the Jewish people, believing that Jews could never find peace by becoming colonizers themselves. Their last stand was against the Nazis--they led the largest Jewish resistance movement, culminating in the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising, a dramatic and tragic climax to their story.
In retelling the history of the Bund and its extraordinary cast of characters during one of the most politically and culturally vibrant moments in European history, Molly is also exploring her own revolutionary life. Her narration is tinged with an almost desperate need to understand whether the Bund failed because their idea was unworkable--or if the world failed the Bund, whose movement could've saved us from the violence of Russian Communism, Nazism, and Zionism. This dynamic, tragic story, is driven by that urgent question--and offers a new lens through which to see our contemporary struggles for solidarity in the face of tribalism.

Wie steht es um unser globales Grundwasser? 💧
Wir sehen es nicht – und doch ist Grundwasser für unsere Wasserversorgung unverzichtbar. Wie sich diese wichtige Ressource weltweit aufgrund des Klimawandels verändert, erforscht Prof. Robert Reinecke an der #UniMainz. Gemeinsam mit seinem Team entwickelt er komplexe digitale Modelle des globalen Wasserkreislaufs, die wie digitale Labore funktionieren.

We got absolutely scammed at Delhi train station last week. It involved a complex web of fake ticket collectors, fake closed offices, and a mad tuktuk ride across town to a fake official. All credit to those lads, they worked hard and got £30 off us. Impressive.
Et voici le dernier épisode de cette série de vlogs en Espagne et plus particulièrement à Ibiza.
Merci à toutes les personnes qui l'auront suivi jusqu'au bout 🫶 C'est à ce jour ma plus longue série de dailyvlogs, et j'ai pris un immense plaisir à les réaliser.
J'adorerais vous assurer qu'il y aura une suite, mais le maigre héritage de mamie atteint ici sa limite. Je suis sûr qu'elle aurait été ravie de me voir vivre grâce à lui.

@inquiline @Heidentweet history and archaelogy provide evidence of tribes and race trying to destroying each other significantly before Europe existed. It has been a factor since the beginning of humanity.
The article redefines certain terms to suit its own need and mentions genocide, racism and salvery being a European thing but this is not where it started, just where it festered and ballooned. Saying otherwise ignores historical fact.
@EF
Sure, I know in the 15th century growing xenophobia in China put a stop to their global expeditions, but that's not the racism this exchange is about. We're talking American racism which has its roots in European racism, which has its own history.
So here are some historical sources on the European origins of European racism, by professional historians:

There's a lot more, but I have more to do today. Bye.
what was the showstopper surprise failure for TLS 3.0? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/POODLE#POODLE_attack_against_TLS
This attack exploits implementation flaws of CBC encryption mode in the TLS 1.0 - 1.2 protocols. Even though TLS specifications require servers to check the padding, some implementations fail to validate it properly, which makes some servers vulnerable to POODLE even if they disable SSL 3.0.[5]
whitfield diffie described a feasible attack against DES in fucking 1976!!!!!!!! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whitfield_Diffie
In 1975–76, Diffie and Hellman criticized the NBS proposed Data Encryption Standard, largely because its 56-bit key length was too short to prevent brute-force attack.

This account has been posting lies about what GrapheneOS has said and done for the past several days. Those are being widely propagated across this platform. People are being played.
https://mas.to/@zzt/117246243842026067
This is very clearly a lie about what we said about codeberg and they're also lying about us about deleting posts we haven't. In previous threads they lied about us deleting a file we clearly never deleted and similarly lied about many things we said and did.
Cryptocurrency enables us to reliably pay a team distributed around the world. It has provided the majority of our funding and is how we're able to run GrapheneOS as a non-profit entirely funded by donations. Many other privacy projects also receive the majority of their donations via cryptocurrency.
We're being attacked because we're transparent about how we're funded, how we pay our team and our general belief in technology protecting people from authoritarian states.
