ESC colleagues: petition & important vote at the General Assembly. If not boycotting, vote. Or a 3rd option: use presentation time to discuss complicity and promote attendance at the GE?

I'm scheduled to present on asylum seekers & everyday resistance. It would be unethical if I didn't resist too

It’s a reminder to all teachers to create safer spaces for those who feel, and are, marginalised in the classroom. Calling in, not calling out. Consciousness raising. Boundaries for everyone. Education matters. Teaching is a political act.
