It’s astonishing how china is now claiming Bajo de Masinloc / Panatag Shoal as a ‘national nature reserve’ when they have been committing ecocide there for years through sea-grabbing, ruining traditional fishing grounds by Zambalense people.

Rampant wealth grabs causing public discontent not least in Indonesia, Nepal, and the Philippines are fuelled by depraved market values in line with the colonial/modern order of things. No decoloniality without quashing kleptocracy!

Maybe the problem is that we keep banging on about studying 🇪🇺 differently within the borders of European Studies, instead of locating our commitments with/in Indigenous Studies, Third World Studies, Plantation Studies, Decolonial Studies, Island Studies, African Studies, Queer Studies…

Food Delivery: Fresh from the West Philippine Sea They tried banning this film for a reason: it sabotages the myth of a supposedly benign pro-Global South «great power» by following the lives of those in peril at sea while resisting sino-militarisation & hegemony. 5/5! docedge.nz/events/food-...

Using anti-imperialist, Decolonial language does not make someone’s analysis anti-imperialist and anti-colonial. Reactionary propaganda can dangerously be cloaked in such language and I’m not talking about the US context here.

“Queers for Palestine: You can’t pinkwash colonialism” How does 🇵🇸 queer activism—within 🇵🇸, across the diaspora & in allied movements—challenge dominant forms of int’l solidarity? We’ll talk with AJ Al-Kurdi about his work tomorrow. Join us! Register: www.southsouthmovement.org/intersection...

BRICS states won’t deliver the global majority from imperialism when multipolarity, for them, means their own projects of death, dominance & dispossession.

Spoke some unspeakable things on 🇪🇺 as a colonial/modern trade power & (more importantly) made many new allies/friends at the 1st Decolonising EU Law Conference, University of Oxford. Thanks again to Profe @ivy180.bsky.social for the invitation & great programme. To many more crossings like this!

Our Palestine Solidarity Series returns. We will have a conversation with AJ Al-Kurdi on his work on intersectionality in Palestinian diaspora, queer & solidarity organizing. Join us! 30 July 2025, 19:00 CEST, zoom  Register via: www.southsouthmovement.org/intersection...

4 yr old girl & her family, displaced by conflict, were killed in a junta airstrike on a displaced people's camp. They bombed their refuge. Military are killing those who’ve lost everything - while the world looks away. Inaction fuels impunity. STOP the flow of jet fuel to Myanmar! buff.ly/CtKSHhi

Even citizenship isn’t protection. Black and Brown people from the Global South, even with legal status in the Global North, are policed, profiled, and treated as perpetual outsiders - @tonihaastrup.bsky.social

Modern migration governance pretends to be about rights but it denies citizenship, enforces racialised borders, and reproduces global inequalities. Who moves, how, and where to, is shaped by the same powers that produce war, climate crises, and economic precarity - @tonihaastrup.bsky.social

The EU is israel’s #1 commercial partner. If EU institutions lived up to their lofty discourse as a ‘normative’ trade power, then they would’ve exerted leverage via trade sanctions, as in other geopolitical contexts. Sadly this damning report will mean nothing to them. www.ohchr.org/en/documents...

Cool, cool, cool. But it’s five centuries of colonial/modern extraction, and let’s face it, though. ‘Newness’ here only makes sense within the discipline of Economics. We’ve long known this asymmetry via ways of knowing outside eurocentrism.

Back from London, with more questions than answers, after an intense day of conversations on decolonisation & empires (past & present). Many thanks to @isrfoundation.bsky.social for hosting us!

Raring to write my first book on « Brussels’s burden » a.k.a. 🇪🇺 as a colonial/modern trade power. A million thanks to @isrfoundation.bsky.social for supporting my work!

I find it breathtakingly infuriating, the number of academic social media accounts grifting on 'race' and 'decolonisation' that have had not one word, not one single passing silent repost even, on the biggest racism & non-decolonisation episode of our times. I know I'm heavily outnumbered, but still

An incredibly myopic geopolitical reading like this is what you get if you write off struggles in southeast asia’s maritime spaces against sino-imperialism, militarisation, & hegemony!

Personal copy of our publication on European memory politics arrived today! I love how it comes in an approachable format, with young folks & educators in mind.

This reflexivity is entirely lost on western academics authorised to carry the banner/burden of "decolonising" Philippine Studies.

Uy, I need this printed out for when I have to deal with Spanish bureaucracy.

If you’re tired of complicit academic organizations/conferences and want to organize and fight alongside concrete struggles, check out the Decolonial Conference, which emerged from a People’s Assembly. www.decolonialconference.org

Practising this politics of refusal has the power to be a fiercer form of allyship within the decolonial turn across the social sciences.

Anti-queer currents in ‘progressive’ and ‘liberal’ politics in the philippines is deeply, deeply enmeshed in colonialism, but we don’t talk enough about that as a society and how our past was a queer past.

Tariff wars between ‘great powers’ are all the rage. But what gets far less public scrutiny is the 🇺🇸 empire’s longstanding policy of using market access to intervene in Africa & coerce countries there to open their economies to 🇺🇸 corporate interests, all in the name of trade-led ‘development’. #agoa

Terrible earthquake in Burma today. People need help. Governments and agencies wishing to help, must understand that there are multiple administrations in the country as people resist Burmese military occupation. Assistance should not be limited only to Burmese military occupied areas.

Beware of calls for the defense of academic freedom that avoid addressing pro-Palestinian activism on American campuses and the Israeli genocide in Gaza

Duterte myth-makers have zero credibility harping on about “sovereignty” while having kowtowed to sino imperial interests.

A long overdue step towards justice for ‘war on drug’ victims in 🇵🇭. Without yielding to the Duterte dynasty’s propaganda against the ICC arrest, there must be an opening in our political discourse to call into question the double standards & impotence plaguing the liberal international legal order.
