Alongside Dr. Ganguli-Mitra, the postholder will develop a project related to epistemic and structural injustice in abortion care, informed by intersectional and transnational feminist approaches, as well as relevant data from practice, governance and activism in relation to care in abortion.

Not In Our Name (NION) Women @nionwomen.bsky.social · Sep 1

⚠️ Women in the UK don’t need to be told what danger looks like — we live it every day.

⛔ One woman is killed by a man every three days in this country (Femicide Census, 2023)

⛔ In 2023, 1.7 million women experienced domestic abuse (ONS, 2023).

It is not trans people who perpetrate these crimes.

we know intimately what the real threat to women looks like.

Cisgender men who abuse their power are the real threat.

Not trans people.

Not in our name. NION Women icon.

Exciting and practical house designs coming out of Scandinavia

The photo pf the huge container ship run aground in the garden of a small coastal house. I've photoshopped an arrow to the house with 'House to Live in', and another arrow to the ship that says 'a room to keep books in'.

of course writing the alt text has warned me this may be a joke that only I find funny.

We moved to the UK partly because we felt that the discussions, attitudes and structures around race were more evolved that on the continent. I still strongly believe that.
Yesterday we had our stairwell painted with the N word with bicycle oil.
Thanks political greed and populism.

This, exactly this.

Rishita "Department of Error" Nandagiri @rishie.bsky.social · May 7

there’s going to be decades of feminist critique of ‘operation sindoor’- not just for its gendered imagery & coopting (‘historic move, 2 female Hindu & Muslim officers lead briefing on war!’) but for the absolute bulshittery this whole thing is.

No body could have realised....right?

Seye Abimbola @seyeabimbola.bsky.social · Mar 1

How epistemic injustice in research kills:

This essay (www.lrb.co.uk/the-paper/v4...) reminds us: When the excuse for bad research is "‘Nobody could have realised..." we should always respond with "Really – nobody?"

"The other side of a culture of silence and silencing is one of not listening.
