This is so cringe for me but if anyone wants to catch my webinar yesterday, the wonderful folks at @ResearchCGHE have uploaded the video and slides below. Many thanks again to the center for hosting ECRs like me. 🙏 researchcghe.org/events/the-glo…

@NobelPrize Instead of giving the Nobel Peace Prize to the journalists of Gaza and/or Sumud Flotilla Activists like Greta Thunberg, The so-called "Nobel Peace Prize" is given instead to a Venezuelan MAGA Zionist. What a fucking joke.

The Lemkin Institute, named after Polish Jewish intellectual Raphael Lemkin, who defined “genocide” after witnessing the atrocities of the Nazi Holocaust, issued this statement against our countries’ complicity in the Gaza genocide. Every single one of us should be ashamed.

Unfortunately, nothing we say, nothing we document, nothing we feel, nothing we scream will move the world to action except for demonstrations. How does a video from today differ from a video from 18 months ago? It’s not any different. The video and screams from 18 months ago didn’t stop any of this. The videos from tomorrow will not save anyone. Hind Rajab’s recorded call and final words did not save any child. The bombing of tents intensified after the whole world watched Shabaan al-Dalo burning in his tent. The horrific execution of the 15 ETMs and Civil Defense personnel, even after the video showing that they were buried with their vehicles, even after today’s video filming their last moments, will not change how this world reacts. I’ve been recently watching my friends posting on their social media that they are dying, begging the world to save them, yet nothing is happening. Some of them were killed in air strikes days later. There is something wrong with this world. None of us is destined to live forever to watch all of this but unfortunately the future will not be merciful to anyone anywhere. Humanity failed and it’s a matter of time before the world breaks down.

This is scary more than ever. In the air strikes today, two people flew even above the clouds of death. The girl who was filming 💔💔💔💔. I cannot sleep after this video.

I stand with Francesca Albanese - because I am a human being.

Netanyahu has not allowed any food, water, or fuel into Gaza in two weeks. Now he has resumed bombing, killing hundreds of people and breaking the ceasefire that had given Gaza a chance to live again. NO MORE MILITARY AID TO ISRAEL.

This is what the media manufacturing consent for genocide looks like. “Israel continues GENOCIDE in Gaza with massive bombardment after repeated violations of ceasefire,” that’s your headline.

Imagine sitting on a 50-billion endowment and not taking the opportunity to spearhead the defence of academic freedom in your country. Well at least we know now what these sorts of schools are all about.

According to a new report of the United Nations Independent International Commission of Inquiry published today, Israel's systematic attacks and destruction of Palestinian reproductive and maternal health facilities in Gaza constitute genocidal acts. ohchr.org/sites/default/…

Shocking abdication by ⁦@swiss_un⁩ as the depository of the Geneva Conventions announcing it will refuse to convene the Conference of Parties to the Geneva Conventions to deal with the crimes of the israeli regime, despite demand by UN & most states. admin.ch/gov/en/start/d…

Always a double standard. If the West wants the Global South to continue to believe in human rights and int'l law then these must be applied consistently!

It was genuinely hideous watching the treatment of Zelensky in the Oval Office. The thing is, the US has systematically bullied entire nations for generations. It’s just done it with a smile. Trump is doing what the US has long done, without the pretences

Mahmoud and Ahmad Muna, owners of the Educational Bookshop in Jerusalem, were arrested by Israeli regime forces yesterday. Their crime? Selling books on Palestine.

And not a single Arab country.

@edcom2ph is looking for a workforce development specialist. Interested applicants may reach me for questions. facebook.com/share/15hcQ3Xw…

Not a single Western country here that's willing to uphold human rights and international law. Shame.

as well as investments in education, training, and research in the next ten years. The development of the NatPlan is consistent with the mandate of the Second Congressional Commission on Education (@edcom2ph) under Republic Act 11899."

"The NatPlan will aim to identify the workforce development requirements of priority industries, to enable systematic and coordinated talent development across key education agencies including DepEd, CHED, TESDA, and DOST. This shall guide needed government policies, ...

A reminder that there's a lot of accounting for atrocities yet to begin in Gaza. 🇵🇸 "The devastation is so intense that some experts say that the large-scale destruction of homes and the infrastructure of daily life should be recognised as a new war crime, “domicide”. @guardian
