#SAES2025 @tadhgheron.bsky.social présente son bilan sur la veille documentaire et les réseaux sociaux

We need a softness rooted in the fierce desire for radical equality. We need a gentleness grounded in the firm commitment to collective care. We need a tenderness that rests on the steadfast struggle for total emancipation.

Submissions for the next special issue of Etudes Irlandaises on Children and the Youth in Ireland are expected by 1 June 2025. journals.openedition.org/etudesirland...

Great many people show support to our colleague in Anglophone Studies, Dr Maboula Soumahoro, whose specialism in critical race analyses in France & US is well known.

Don't try to phish a linguist. 🤨 They will notice that your use of sentence initial 'please' is West African not Irish & that (as the German you're pretending to be) you wouldn't address someone by their first name straight away. So FYI, there's phishing emails in the name of EFACIS circulating.
