MUSLIM FUTURES: How to Sell Solidarity to the People by Hacking Surveillance Capitalism And many other things I learned from author Jeff Chang during my time in the amazing Butterfly Lab

And you can watch the full interview here!
theutopiastudio.substack.com/p/muslim-fut...

We looked at the long arc of the relationship between culture & politics, how to invert the tools of surveillance capitalism to sell solidarity to the people, & even touched on what #BruceLee can teach us about community building.

Good times, good talks, check it out!
🤎🤎🤎

I invited Jeff into the wayback machine to talk through the revolutionary model he & his team developed at the B-lab a handful of years ago. Little did I know Jeff was gonna trace the history of this work back another 60+ years! Maybe even millennia?

This was such a nourishing chat, and if you want to read Nijla's story (in prose or comic form!), snag your copy of the MUSLIM FUTURES anthology now at:

What if we all believed that aging was to be treasured, and that our time ahead is always limitless? Nijla Mu'min's beautiful story, THE WEDDING, in our MUSLIM FUTURES anthology embodies that world in the most intimate way.

Sometimes the most aspirational thing about the future can be how it makes us feel when the world chooses to value us the way we deserve. For example, what if American society decided to value Black maternal health on a systemic level?

I had such a fun chat with Randa Jarrar about their story in our MUSLIM FUTURES anthology, "Lunch at the Penal Colony." We answered the important questions like, "in a liberatory future, who’s gonna literally dismantle the prisons?"

Opinion | No Child Deserves to Die Like My Daughter

Today on the anniversary of her murder, we remember Hind Rajab and the thousands of children that have been murdered since 2023 in Palestine. Please call on your representatives to protect children and demand immediate humanitarian and medical aid to Gaza. 

www.nytimes.com/2026/01/29/o...

I’m so grateful to all the Academy voters that uplifted our film and Hind’s voice by nominating THE VOICE OF HIND RAJAB for Best International Feature. Deeply honored to be a part of this necessary film by the visionary @kaoutherbenhania

Completely speechless at this news, and just so grateful. May Hind’s voice - and the film’s call for justice - be heard! Opens in the US Dec 17th, theaters and showtimes at www.thevoiceofhindrajabfilm.com
