@colinmurray.bsky.social Anne Alexander and I share some thoughts on the terrifying criminalisation of protest.

In a week when the divide between direct action protest and terrorism disappeared for the UK Government, Anne Alexander, @aliceellafinden.bsky.social and I share our thoughts on the dangerous chilling effect for Art 10/11 ECHR rights with @opendemocracy.net: www.opendemocracy.net/en/palestine...

We join voices around the world calling upon the UK Govt to intervene for the immediate release of Alaa Abd El-Fattah from prison in #Egypt. We are concerned for the health and freedoms of both Alaa and his mother, Prof Laila Soueif at this critical moment.

Excited to be co-hosting a @mybisa.bsky.social /ISA workshop on Critical Encounters with the Colonial Archive with @christinajriggs.bsky.social in October. Please send your abstracts in by 30 May here: www.isanet.org/Conferences/...

Very happy to have this short piece on emergencies and state violence in #Egypt published - thanks for the opportunity

So proud to have my book out with #Interventions! Counterterrorism and Colonialism: Everyday Violence in Britain and Egypt argues that so-called exceptional violence is formed from the everyday production of colonial difference. Thank you to everyone who made this possible!

Durham staff students and members of the public came together yesterday to say no to the normalisation of genocidal violence, and call upon the UK government to do better. #FreePalestine

Solidarity with @newcastleucu.bsky.social members striking to protect jobs and refuse cuts throughout March ✊️

Massive national march to demand a ceasefire in Gaza happening in Washington DC right now.

As of two hours ago, the Death toll in Gaza is 5156 including 2009 children and 15740 injured.

The Palestinian keffiyeh and its symbolism: The firshnet represents its Mediterranean life. The bold multi-laned borders represent the trade routes passing through Palestine. The leaf pattern in between the two border lines represent olive leaves. The hills, the sea, and the routes of travel.

A reading list of 15 articles, made open access by Journal of Palestine Studies. Articles provide historical context and analysis of the 17-year Israeli blockade of Gaza. #Polisky www.tandfonline.com/journals/rpa...
