You know who REALLY spent their whole lives doing ACTUAL work for the benefit of the British people? 12 million African folks displaced by the transatlantic slave trade, and further millions in generations of their offspring.

Indian men and urination. It has always been a complicated relationship, but alas, they never seem to get the aim right. I, for one, dread going to a public toilet after the visit by one of my brethren. But what is now happening takes the cake!

Shining a light on the historical realities of colonialism is a promising first step. But we also must acknowledge that colonialism has driven so much injustice and the climate crisis.

This is tragic, esp. 7.8 on Richter scale when people asleep, incl. areas ravaged by war. My research home was flattened by 2001 earthquake. Unimaginable what people are going through. Hope lives can be saved in the coming days & aid reaches the needy. ft.com/content/295b1d…

Stop highly insensitive politicians, bureaucrats of Daman from demolishing this 500 year old historic Church of Our Lady of Augustus — for a football field. It’s exquisite carvings represent India’s craft traditions. Heritage is not Catholic or Hindu — it’s the soul of India.

In the #Bengal #Delta, every #pond, or pukur, has stories to tell — of waterbirds and #wetland plants, of family memory, colonialist history, and #climatechange. My piece on ponds, #partition, and placemaking has been published in Places Journal. placesjournal.org/article/ponds-…

Disgraceful to see Neo-Nazis on the streets of Melbourne again, this time rallying against immigration. Fascism & racism have no place in our multicultural society & must be destroyed. Solidarity with anti-racism protestors who turned up in force to counter-protest the rally.

Such a shame! Big bad billionaires playing risky & dangerous games with their toys, but most importantly, the news media in the Western world going crazy reporting,. Many more people, especially the refugees, die more miserable deaths all around the oceans every day, no? #ABC
