We have organised this exhibition with our students to archive and celebrate the Sheffield encampment that ran for 92 days last year. If you are around Sheffield on 22-23 July, please visit us at Bloc Projects on Eyre Street #FreePalestine

New paper out in #openaccess on role of infrastructure in territorial stigmatisation Available here: www.ijurr.org/article/infr...

Opinion from the FT's Editorial Board: 'The US and European countries that tout Israel as an ally that shares their values have issued barely a word of condemnation. They should be ashamed of their silence, and stop enabling Netanyahu to act with impunity.' www.ft.com/content/f5fd...

Huge rally of staff and students today rejecting cuts at Sheffield 💥

This isn't Gaza. This is the West Bank which is run by the PA not Hamas. It is being decimated, homes destroyed, over 40,000 Palestinians displaced so far with nothing but the clothes on their backs.

Western MSM silence is deafening. Now imagine if this was inside Ukraine.

Very useful set of insights here particularly on broadening and deepening our everyday engagement with UCU beyond ballots on industrial action, with ALL unions representing university staff and - for those of us working on challenging neoliberal violence - practicing what we pr/t-each

A scholar of fascism and authoritarianism on Tulsi Gabbard -- She's perfect for Trump's anti-democratic vision.

Notable are the several mentions of Hindu nationalism in this piece. Gabbard is supported by this far-right movement in America. It's dangerous for us all
