Just published and open access: Our article on the #nog20 protests in camps & beyond in Hamburg @protestinstitut @protestcamps @textrecycling Caring for the whole: Spatial organization at the G20 protests in Hamburg - Fabian Frenzel, Nina Fraeser, 2023 journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/13…

We’re looking forward to reading this ⬇️
🚨FACIAL RECOGNITION REINFORCES RACIST STOP AND FRISK🚨 Today, we're publishing our latest research in NYC, showing how the NYPD's investment in FRT follows an all too familiar logics. #BanTheScan. Full research here: banthescan.amnesty.org/decode/. [1/n]
It wouldn't be a protest camp without tents, would it? These are part of what @fabnomad, @drfigtree & I call re-creation infrastructures which help reproduce everyday life and allow the camp to continue
Urban protest camps can feed off city infrastructure (gas & food) and also supplements it. Scattered downtown are tables full of supplies, socks, granola bars, shovels and stacks of TP. There also appear to be people with sleds pulling supplies around.
So this is my new favourite project - fab intro to this grassroots initiative @ComicArtFest ⬇️

I think it is really clear where the damage to staff 'dignity and respect' at work comes from (clue: it is not from those brave enough to speak out about our working conditions)

Hey protest camps tweeps- please check out this thread from @lestageog & Let @UniLeicBusiness @LeicesterUnion @leicesterucu know that research should not be contained or counted against the business strategy of the few (post by @drfigtree)

How to react when you find out that work you co-authored is being used to justify the redundancy of a good friend and colleague? 🧵
Most of my week has been consumed with working out how to respond to this news. It is fair to say that the actions of senior managers @UniLeicBusiness and @uniofleicester have negatively impacted on my sense of dignity and respect at work this week!
I’ve decided this one will be the end of the tear gas touring for a while - a beautiful invitation to speak in the archive where it all began...
