“raising fears of ethnic cleansing” — we’ve been screaming this for more than a year and a half

www.theguardian.com/world/2025/m...

My colleagues are all frantically trying to write their ‘justification’ document for compulsory redundancies at the same time as finish up teaching semesters & do fantastic research, as well as parent, live lives, and carry on regardless. This is an unnecessary cruelty. Brutal.

yeah we shared it with the Mpala and Princeton people but they weren’t so keen 🤷‍♂️

thanks Markus! I didn't know anyone had actually read this paper!? :) Hope you're doing well

all of a sudden, after a decade of research, this book is available to pre-order from @uminnpress.bsky.social

An open letter to the RGS about its decision not to host a PalFest event during Israel's War on Gaza . The piece reflects on the responsibility and histories of our academic societies and the silencing of Palestinian voices.
