And while I’m posting about recent publications: I loved this special issue on “After Rights”, edited by Louiza Odysseos & Bal Sokhi-Bulley

Last week, the new owners of the Observer wrote to tell me they would *not* be issuing me with a new contract. 🤷‍♀️

So...I want to say publicly that it was an absolute privilege to speak on behalf of my Observer colleagues during our strike. I don't regret doing so. And I learned so much from it.
