I am deeply saddened to hear of the passing of our former colleague, Dr. Arif Naveed, Senior Lecturer at the University of Bath. He was a remarkable individual who bravely battled cancer while continuing his academic work with unwavering dedication until the very end.

Proud. Amsterdam comes out AGAIN in defiance of the protest ban. We will not stop, we will not rest, until Palestine is liberated

To everyone who remains here and keeps supporting Palestine: we know why we are here, we know what's truly relevant at the moment, and that's all that matters.

There is a very simple reason why the UK government refuses to acknowledge the genocide in Gaza. If they did, they would be admitting their own complicity in one of the greatest crimes of our time. End all arms sales to Israel, now.

UN special committee likens Israeli policy in Gaza to genocide. Report also refers to Israel 'using starvation as a weapon of war' and running 'apartheid system' in West Bank. Don’t ever say you didn’t know. theguardian.com/world/2024/nov…

This is northern Gaza. Simply wanton destruction, a scorched earth policy with no conceivable military purpose. All the legal terms we’ve been using—necessity, distinction, proportionality—fall like dead leaves at our feet. That this is indulged by the west is soul twisting.

My exclusive for Observer today: For 1st time FOI data from Oxford colleges shows majority of tutorials taught by early career academics struggling to manage on low pay & ‘Deliveroo-style’ contracts. FT profs only taught a third of tutorials last year. theguardian.com/education/2024…

Germany’s only institute dedicated to researching German colonial history & legacies Koloniales Erbe has been dismantled by the Hamburg Senate without adequate reasons. That says a lot about the political landscape. The institute was formerly attacked by the rightwing AfD Party.

Amnesty International’s new landmark report concludes that Israeli authorities have committed – and still are committing - genocide against Palestinians in the occupied Gaza Strip. Full report, out now. #EndGazaGenocide amn.st/6014Q6K9g

Just so you know: lsrael is killing more and more children in Gaza.

No words for how disturbing this is - One year old girl. One leg. No family. This is what US tax dollars fund.

“What do we do with student disillusionment and dismay at the sharp, painful, cleavage between theory and practice? Where and what is ‘critical pedagogy’ now?”

Very important piece by Basma Hajir and Mezna Qato on the complicity of Western academia with genocide - through silence, the violent suppression of solidarity and pretentious claims of 'complexity'.

Nigel Farage, sitting with Reform UK MP James McMurdock who was jailed for attacking his girlfriend, says Labour are failing to stop assaults on young women.

Racism isn’t saying an uncomfortable word. Racism is every news media reporting on the individual lives of the 33 adult settler hostages to be released in Phase 1, and not one mention of the 100+ Palestinians, 25 of whom are children, that Israel has murdered since announcing the
