I don't think Peter Mandelson is PM's biggest problem. The biggest problem is not standing up to the literal violent racism on our streets, supercharged by the richest man in the world, and threatening the very fabric of our society. If he and so many commentators can't see this, we're truly lost.

Deeply saddened to learn of the death of Conor Gearty
His contribution as a human rights scholar has been immense
His readiness to speak up for justice is one more human rights educators need to emulate

Go, a college student, has a dependent visa (her mother, an Episcopal minister, is here on a religious worker visa), which doesn't expire until Dec. But when she tried to renew it early, ICE nabbed her and sent her halfway across the US to a detention center.

Encouraging to hear #PrimeMinister Keir Starmer speak in support of #CitizenshipEducation at yesterday’s Liaison Committee.

New op-ed in the Chicago Sun Times

“When someone accepts bureaucratic terms for human displacement, they become desensitized, seeing figures instead of faces, cases instead of lives being upended.”

Dehumanizing language used on America's enslaved is still spoken today
The words Donald Trump and his underlings use for immigrants strip away their humanity and reduce them to dangerous caricatures worthy of fear rather than constitutional protection.
