endowed

Trump recently joked about Hall of Fame professional golfer Arnold Palmer's penis and how endowed he supposedly was.

She added, "I don’t think my autism has been fetishized, likely because I’m high masking in many situations, which is of course a privilege but also bad because masking is exhausting and harmful to health and understanding. The closest I’ve experienced to fetishization has probably been the 'superpower' myth. The superpower myth is damaging because it overlooks the humanity of neurodivergent individuals. We are not mutant X-Men somehow endowed with special powers. Like everyone, we deserve empathy, humanity and understanding."

UC Berkeley will launch a new endowed program and chair in Palestinian and Arab Studies, one of the few in the nation, as the Israel-Hamas war has fueled huge demand to better understand the history, culture and politics of the people of the region.

A $3.25-million gift by anonymous donors led to the establishment of the program, which will fund research opportunities and cultural activities, along with the endowed chair named after May Ziadeh, a pioneering Palestinian-Lebanese feminist, poet and writer.

Each of us who cares about the 235-year-old constitutional heritage with which we have been endowed must do all we can in the coming months to ensure that the ultimate arbiter of legitimate power, our electoral system, delivers an unmistakable message this fall.
