Good morning from the Tay

Back into town and a quick coffee stop. #Zufre

Then back up the other side. Nice short walk about 4 miles. #Zufre

Down one side of the valley. The lakes are way down after a very hot summer. #Zufre

It’s #BannedBooksWeek and yes, they banned To Kill a Mockingbird because it “makes people uncomfortable.”

That’s the point!

Books that expose racism and injustice SHOULD make you squirm. Silencing truth is cowardice.
Read what they fear.📚

University leaders aren’t offering any compromises so our strike continues. If you want help/show solidarity you can contribute to our fighting fund (we’re each going to lose 3-5 weeks pay & being threatened with 50% pay deduction for action short of strike): www.uculeicester.org.uk/leicester-uc...

The government want more coercive powers for the state against protests, and the main opposition party wants more coercive powers for the state against migrants.

Our political-media culture continues in a loop where the response to every perceived problem is yet more coercive powers for the state.
