This is shocking and concerning for the EAA and its membership. As a signatory of the open letter asking the EAA to act responsibly and ethically, the way @archagainstaparth.bsky.social and EAA members were treated is appalling. More thoughts later.

I had a first day back at work yesterday after eight weeks post op, and feel like a wrought out wet towel. Also artemisia pollen are kicking my brain today.

Remember: archaeology is never and can’t never be unpolitical.

If you're overwhelmed by the amount of Gaza fundraisers flooding your TL just imagine how overwhelmed they are getting the 25th evacuation order while being starved to death and terrorized with bombs paid by our tax money. Choose 3 fundraisers and give $5 to each...even that can save lives. 🙏🏼

New announcement of #EAA just dropped.

I'm not in EAA, or a member, but if you are, people are being advised to attend the meeting on Friday. It would seem the board was not aware of the email or statement and it was not agreed by the board. 1/2 #Archaeology 🏺

Given what’s unfolding with the EAA & their attempt to silence @archagainstaparth.bsky.social, I find it salient to share my @aljazeera.com Op-Ed from last year.
