@RajrahSimple @OxfordUCU @oxsaaf I’m so pleased that my proposed motion was passed and I’m able to work through my union to make changes happen 🥰 Thank you for all your work @oxsaaf
@RajrahSimple @OxfordUCU @oxsaaf This is wonderful. Could we get the text of the motion? There is also a fledgling network to try to raise caste in UK trade unions if Oxford UCU is interested.

@oxsaaf @SantoshDass1048 @DhandaMeena Great work Santosh & Annapurna.
I have no words to express my gratitude for the love, affection and (of course) money I received in the last week. I never thought I would be able to collect such a large amount for my higher education at Oxford University. (1/3)
We have made it here and we are not going anywhere. All set for tomorrow's conference. A meeting later in the day with university officials and the city Mayor hopes to institute protection against discrimination and affirmative action based on caste at @UniofOxford. @oxsaaf
Will be moderating the second panel. Please join in person at Oxford or online!
Find out more about the running order for the annual conference. 3/3

It might not seem like a big deal yet but @oiioxford supporting this conference is a groundbreaking moment. The department is opening up exclusive research on South Asia and trusted @oxsaaf with this crucial topic - only upwards from here 💙
