Cornell on Fire

The hierarchical corporate university lacks an ethical core. Cheyfitz wrote in July 2025: "The hierarchical corporate structure is built to resist solidarity, the kinship of its workers (faculty, students, and staff)... [and] to stimulate one's tunnel vision. Keeping voices of resistance alive is crucial in a corporate structure that demands silence except when the managers speak."

In gratitude We are grateful for Professor Cheyfitz's scholar-activism: For holding up the Native concept of "natural democracy" built on kinship with nature as culture; for insisting upon the historical reality of Cornell's foundation in Indigenous dispossession and Native genocide; and for resisting Cornell's complicity in the genocide in Gaza.

In solidarity We condemn Cornell's politically motivated repression of Professor Cheyfitz for his pro-Palestinian views. Cornell has denied his right to teach his final classes before his planned retirement in a blatant violation of due process, faculty governance, and academic freedom.

A four-doll matrioshke, unpacked and arranged 2x2. In order, the dolls' faces have been replaced with: the Qanon logo; an Oxycontin pill, the face of Robert Bork, and Mark Zuckerberg's metaverse avatar.

An elderly white couple photographed in the 1960s. The man has his hand around the woman's shoulder. Both have had their mouths duct-taped shut. The man's gag bears a Google logo; the woman's gag bears a Meta logo. Over the man's shoulder rises the Mastodon mascot, blindfolded. Over the woman's shoulder rises the Bluesky butteryfly, also blindfolded. Emerging from the background is a 'code waterfall' effect as seen in the credit sequences of the Wachowskis' 'Matrix' movies.

"A 1930s editorial cartoon depicting a bloated baseball player labeled 'Monopoly Giants' sliding into home base but falling short. He is being tagged by a smaller, weaker player labeled 'consumer.' An umpire is striding into the frame, declaring the monopolist to be safe. The image has been altered: the slider has the head of Mark Zuckerberg's metaverse avatar. The ump has the head of Robert Bork. The consumer has the head of a foolishly grinning child laborer, photographed at the turn of the 20th century.

An organ grinder with a monkey. The organ grinder's head has been replaced with a Gilded Age caricature of a sneering millionaire. The monkey's head has been replaced with the head of a miserable child coal miner. The background is a blurred, halftoned view of a vast square in Beijing with a giant official building in the background, and a Chinese flag on a flagpole. On the organ is a blurred portrait of John Philip Sousa.
