"A profoundly moral and purposive refusal is at the heart of these campus uprisings...a refusal by the young to mirror the supine posture of so many of their elders," @prospect_uk asked me to write something on the protests. This is open access with thanks to the editors.

Happy May Day everyone!
hate him, hate his smug face
All of the faculty brutalized, detained, cited by police this morning were folks of color.
I wrote about what I’d been reading, for the @guardian. Now: editing’s important. I’m happy to be edited and I welcome it. But isn’t it funny how it’s always the same word that gets edited out? theguardian.com/books/2024/may…
Does anyone know any electricians that might be able to donate a couple of hours to a worthy LGBTQ+ project in West Yorkshire? #shybairns
Primary school kids can’t even go to the toilet without a pass these days, that’s probably why they’ve all got UTIs. What a stupid fucking lie.
To the person who decided to make a loud fuss about whether I was in the right toilet today, maybe you could just mind your own business?
Sheffield UCU Committee encourages members of the university community to visit the encampment, and talk to student protestors, offering support where they can. We urgently call on the University Executive to meet with student protestors to discuss their demands. 5/5
including developing weaponry, military doctrines, and legal justifications for the mass targeting of Palestinians. 4/5
University of Sheffield must not be complicit with any war crimes and crimes against humanity and we call on it to immediately end all ties with entities involved in the perpetration of grave violations of human rights... 3/5
The group have 3 demands: the divestment from weapons manufacture, boycott of Israeli academic institutions, and accountability. As a branch, we consistently support the freedom of expression and right to protest of our students and we send our solidarity to protestors. 2/5
Students have set up an encampment outside the SU in solidarity with the Palestinian people, as well as protesting against the university's alleged complicity in Israeli apartheid and the ongoing bombardment of Gaza. 1/5 x.com/nowthenmag/sta…

There is an irony when universities are still claiming to decolonise while trying to stop student encampments eh
📢Call for Presentations!📢 Come and join us for this exciting PGR-led hybrid interdisciplinary conference for PGRs, early career researchers, and civil society involved in disability research, activism & practice! Accepting submissions until Midday Sunday 26th May 2024!

Sharehan is the daughter of one of my friends in Gaza and is looking to leave with her two young children to keep them safe - please donate to support her if you can. #FreePalestine #Gaza gofund.me/81922658
Every time I think that I've 'finished' documenting the ways in which the govt is attacking disabled people via social security, impositions of more unwaged work, & new rules to push more people into precarious waged work, they come up with even more venom independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-n…
Q: are there neurodivergent academics here who want to meet once in a while to reflect on their/our writing (and publishing) practice?
This fills me with despair. Danny needs 1:1 support and receives the highest level of PIP. He is not “unhealthy” He is autistic and has a learning disability - cutting off all support will not “improve his health” it will damage it catastrophically. #PIP #DisabilityRights

So exciting about the @ManMetUni coach trip to Laughing Boy on May 14. Students, staff and people we work with (and a waiting list). ♥️
good morning *especially* our sheffield student encampment. our university *more than any other in the UK* profits from the arms trade. excited to be talking there later about why western humanitarianism has historically failed to prevent or condemn genocide.
"A profoundly moral and purposive refusal is at the heart of these campus uprisings...a refusal by the young to mirror the supine posture of so many of their elders," @prospect_uk asked me to write something on the protests. This is open access with thanks to the editors.
In cracking down on largely peaceful protests, university authorities—not gen Z—are the real snowflakes, says @PriyamvadaGopal prospectmagazine.co.uk/politics/free-…
Happy May Day everyone!
🚨 BREAKING: Labour has DITCHED its "New Deal for Working People" in the face of opposition from bosses. Key workers' rights promises have been abandoned: Labour will not ban zero-hours contracts, and it will not enshrine a "right to switch off" in law. (Source: FT)
All of the faculty brutalized, detained, cited by police this morning were folks of color.
.@UWMadison Professor Samer Alatout is back at the protest. He said he was detained and cited and police inflicted the gash on his head. He said police are “singling out” people of color. “I saw the police pointing at me and saying ‘we want him,’” Alatout told me.
I am so so sickened by the cowardice of our media
White supremacy is invested in treating the suffering and death of racialised people as a tragic natural phenomenon. BUT YOU PUT THE VIOLENCE THERE. You did it. You.
I did not approve these edits and I condemn the moral cowardice behind them. Name the hand behind the deaths of 15,000 children. It is Israeli violence, funded and supported by the US and the UK.
I wrote about what I’d been reading, for the @guardian. Now: editing’s important. I’m happy to be edited and I welcome it. But isn’t it funny how it’s always the same word that gets edited out? theguardian.com/books/2024/may…
Does anyone know any electricians that might be able to donate a couple of hours to a worthy LGBTQ+ project in West Yorkshire? #shybairns
also, now that students at UK universities are beginning following the US example, it's going to be a real test for Vice-Chancellors to show if they really support students' freedom of expression. 😎
zero hours contracts give petty managers so much power. last time i was on a zhc i stood up to a manager who was being openly misogynistic to another member of staff and from that moment i was never given another shift
-2/3 workers on zero hours contracts have been with their employer for more than a year -45% workers on ZHCs say it was the only work available -women of colour are ~3x more likely to be on a ZHC than white men -63% people support a ban on ZHCs Well done @UKLabour
At the hospital, the nurse took photos “in case you want to file a report.” Report to whom? The very people who strangled me at work in broad daylight with cameras rolling? Those people?
Primary school kids can’t even go to the toilet without a pass these days, that’s probably why they’ve all got UTIs. What a stupid fucking lie.
Badenoch claims girls developed UTIs due to lack of single-sex toilets at school dlvr.it/T6G9qZ
I am very nervous about the trans men saying "Well this NHS plan will force me - Big, hairy, deep voice, men's clothes - onto women's wards where I will NATURALLY scare the Women" bc however you look, there will be both trans women and nottrans women who ALSO fit those criteria.
We can't win by saying "Women* are Naturally and Inevitably frightened of people who look/sound this way" -Especially when so many people are insistent that trans women look/sound like that and so many trans women feel like they can't even ask for accommodation until they "pass"!
@TigSlater_ Now contemplating a "trays for terfs" campaign
His name was Connor Sparrowhawk, he loved London Buses, mermaids and his family, and he had good ideas about his future… I really would have loved to have met you, Connor. But I also guess I did, in some weird and magical way - in the darkness. Strange… Wonderful… Cool.
