Fascinating conversation of the brothers Makdisi with Eyal Weizman, director of Forensic Architecture, about his book Ungrounding : The Architecture of Genocide Podcast on libsyn: https://5c38ed5d-ae39-4593-abba-a055102e8adb.libsyn.com/makdisi-street-reviews-w-eyal-weizman Watch on YT: https://youtu.be/EInAD1Utpgw On the book: "Ungrounding leads us between layers of earth and history, soil and infrastructure, elucidating both the long history of Israeli aggression against Gaza and the histories of Palestinian resistance . . . Weizman cuts through obfuscations and horror, and helps us to see something of the truth." -- Isabella Hammad, author of Recognizing the Stranger: On Palestine and Narrative @palestine@lemmy.ml @palestine@fedibird.com @bookstodon@fedigroups.social#SettlerColonialism ##Israel #decolonisation #FreePalestine #Gaza #geography #soil #resistance

LoL: "A US government map of Africa mislabeled every country during a state department presentation at a ⁠global conference in Brazil ⁠this week, ​causing a stir among attenders who took screenshots and posted them online. Reuters viewed a video of the presentation given at the Aids 2026 conference in ⁠Rio de Janeiro, which shows the errant map displayed halfway during a presentation about the state department’s new health agreements. A Reuters analysis found the image of the map included ⁠in the presentation contained an artificial intelligence watermark that signals it was made with OpenAI tools. The ​company said it was investigating the report. The state ‌department said it took “full responsibility” ‌for the confusion caused and that the map had been produced by a team member who hastily changed ‌the slide deck before the event." https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/jul/30/government-map-mislabels-african-countries?CMP=Share_AndroidApp_Other #USA #Africa #Geography #Imperialism #Neocolonialism
