Look forward to thinking together with @alinajasina.bsky.social about decolonization or decentering through the lens of the Global Easts

Und auch mit Holger Stoecker u.a. am 26. Mai und mit @charnab.bsky.social u.a. am 16. Juni

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...

“There is far too much power in the hands of professors in the German system,” says @leising.bsky.social. My latest @nature.com story digs into efforts to tackle the entrenched structural heirarchy that enables academic bullies.
