A new report on internally displaced persons in Tigray. This makes bitter reading - an ongoing, overlooked humanitarian crisis, with many lacking food, water, shelter, health and education provision

This study based on a survey with 4500 IDPs & interviews with 640

What utter contempt @gwr.com has for cyclists. Two reservable cycle spaces between Cardiff and London. I had a reservation from Bristol Parkway, but the train manager wouldn't let me board - lack of space, he says

@cyclinguk.bsky.social

How train companies ensure cycling in the UK is impossible for commuters: @crosscountryuk.bsky.social refused a small crowd of cyclists from boarding my train today and unnecessarily removed the bike of a man travelling to work, delaying the service, and wasting the time of police. 1/3

I just got an email informing me that my Annual Review on structural racism with @tyson-brown.bsky.social and @pahoman.bsky.social is open access. So, download away.

David Lammy is betting that those complicit in Israel’s genocide will never go to prison.

He bets that Western and Israeli impunity will protect him and the other Guilty Men and Women forever.

It is a bet he may find he’ll lose.

Harvard Educational Review spent a year preparing a special issue on education in and about Palestine. In June, contributors were notified that the Harvard Education Publishing Group had abruptly canceled the issue's release.

This is censorship and cowardice.

I feel like there's not enough people talking about how EThOS is still offline following the British Library cyber attack in October 2023. This is a hugely valuable resource to British PGRs and ECRs!

Hi @britishlibrary.bsky.social, please can we have an update on EThOS? The doctoral thesis archive has been down for almost 2 years, and there's no date for restoring this service, as far as I can see? EThOS isn't a nice-to-have luxury, it's an essential service for research

At least this is now getting some coverage, but concerning that the police (government) have not issued a clear statement that this was a mistake by the officers concerned. What kind of directions are they getting?

“I approach this as a lawyer and historian. But I wonder what Israel’s defenders would regard as unacceptable, if this level of violence is not enough. This is not self-defence. It is collective punishment, or revenge, not just on Hamas but on entire population. It is a war crime": Jonathan Sumption

Hello, this is one is close to home; House Teenagers old school.

Sounds like an awful experience for the kids, please consider signing the petition (link next post).

For the teachers to cut the trip short, it must have been shockingly bad.

The 'endogenous systems leadership' framework is a heuristic for dialogue and decision-making.

It is based on a synthesis of evidence from across the Global South, and theoretically grounded in work on complexity, systems leadership and coloniality within education and international partnerships

An object lesson in how not to engage whilst displaying company branding.

Bravo @drinkmoorbeer.bsky.social

If you were unaware of the horrific atrocities carried out in Tigray, there's a reason for that.

See @tekgw.bsky.social's Open Access piece: "Tigray war: Modern geographies of mass violence and the invisibilization of populations"

This article is extremely graphic and upsetting, almost impossible to read. Kudos @theguardian.com

Devastating atrocities committed against women & girls during Tigray genocide

According to the UN, there is “no likely prospect that the domestic judicial system will hold perpetrators accountable"

Such an interesting thread.
Emphasising recall (with quizzes) over thinking is a big problem,

While the eyes of the world are on Iran, the Israeli military is still slaughtering civilians in Gaza as they try to access food after months of starvation. We can't let the Israeli govt's unprovoked attack on Iran distract us from the unfolding genocide www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
