Canada’s race problem? It’s even worse than America’s. macleans.ca/news/canada/ou…

My last contribution on how to (so-called) decolonize IR (in @millennjournal)! The first baby step is to decenter the Western gaze in our syllabi: -> 54% mention the Cold War, 8% de/colonization -> 92% realism, 14% race studies -> 32 U.S. leaders mentioned, 0 from Africa

@shoshanahjacobs Provide writing and research training and supports for students to build skills

Hey there #Academic Tweeps, Please hit me with a reason why you and your students wouldn't be successful without your library. We're having ours cut cut cut and I can't help but think that this will cause a migration of students to other #HigherEd schools. I need my library to....

Thank you @TheAgenda and @spaikin for hosting this critical conversation with two brilliant activists, @meggiewalk and @BreWolig on #CallItFemicide and the tireless work of the @CAN_Femicide and @DawsonMyrna.

Soooo proud of my @IDSGuelph students partnering with the incredible @DrMarshaHinds @anyalourdes Operation Safe Space!! What a phenomenal journey! Next step publishing a book together!💖🇧🇧@CESIGuelph @CSAHS_UoG @uofg @UofGAlumni @UwafiokunI @ej_engaged

Attorney at Law Anya Lorde appearing before the Caribbean Court of Justice holding a watching brief for Operation Safe Space. To say I am proud is an understatement. Barbados government skin up again....stand by... View here loom.ly/nIsBiKY #CCJ

Amazing to lead Day 1 of the @cdnwomenfdn Shockproofing Communities Summit with the brilliant @Fayza_Amel and organizations across the country working to end gender-based violence

Lunch w Dr @N_Kabeer ProfGender+InternationalDevelopment @q_londonschoolo delivering @IDSGuelph lecture ‘The Broader Story of Progress-Building collective action on the margins’. Me 10yrs ago quoting her work in my graduate thesis on gender justice movements can’t believe it!❤️

I strongly dislike the idea of "the intergenerational transmission of poverty" as if poverty is a disease. Instead, it's the "consistent passing of laws/policies reducing poverty to an individual's moral/character flaw." Poverty is a policy decision!

On Thursday, February 23, 2023 1:00 - 2:30 PM EST join us for the virtual roundtable “Honouring Black Feminist Leadership in the Gender-Based Violence (GBV) sector”. Registration is now open: bit.ly/3Jvt6F3

It's February 1st! Y'all know what it is on this side. Here's a few #BlackHistoryMonth tips: 1. start w/ love, humanity, & understanding 2. lead from a stance of Black joy & excellence, our story didn't start in slavery 3. ALWAYS capitalize the 'B' in Black #OntEd #EdChat

Teaching these fantastic @IDSGuelph students, partnering with @DrMarshaHinds and Operation Safe Space to explore best practices+policies to address intimate partner violence in Barbados🇧🇧#AMovementForChange @CSAHS_UoG @uofg @CESIGuelph @UwafiokunI @UofGuelphNews @UofGAlumni

The safest communities are the ones with the most resources, not the most police. We can't police our way out of poverty, homelessness and food insecurity.

Going to say this again: Policing addresses crime after it happens, it doesn’t prevent it. If we want to prevent crime AND build more compassionate communities, we need to invest in housing, mental health, education & healthcare. Invest more in our communities. Not policing.

If capitalism could "solve" poverty, it would have already. Rather it creates, sustains, and criminalizes poverty.

Very excited to partner with you @DrMarshaHinds and Operation Safe Space!!! 📊💡

Amazing meeting w attorney Anya and advocate Robyn from Operation Safe Space. Excited to partner w this outstanding org addressing intimate partner violence+providing survivor-centred support+advocacy in Barbados 🇧🇧 #AMovementForChange @IDSGuelph @CESIGuelph @CSAHS_UoG @uofg
