"In time, Trinity’s position on Israel will be seen in the same light as its equally historic commitment to cut ties with apartheid South Africa in the 1980s." David Landy @AcaforPalestine irishtimes.com/opinion/2025/0…"

@Positivteacha Congrats on the piece, really great!

Today, the Guardian, alongside @hopenothate , today publish an in depth undercover investigation into the efforts of a network of far right race and IQ obsessives, who have been trying to influence discourse about race science. theguardian.com/world/2024/oct…

We do not agree with Adolescence being shown in schools and intend to put our arguments across urgently to government. Whilst it is a fantastic, gritty piece of writing, Adolescence is not an educational resource and is not suitable for schools. Teachers cannot be expected to roll this out, and this cannot be a knee jerk response. If you are a professional who has concerns about this being rolled out in schools, please get in touch so we can put our names and thoughts together. @Jaimi_Shrive and I will write up and share key arguments in due course, so please get in touch or add your name.

My colleague Eileen Culloty writing in the Irish Times today about the need for an academic boycott. Many of us are particularly concerned about this DCU project on counter-terrorism, which began this year @AcaforPalestine irishtimes.com/opinion/2024/1…

In this @ohrhealy piece, @jillybkay: “Liberal feminism has been rejected for good reason .. it makes sense that you’d want to find an alternative. But just because something is the enemy of liberal feminism, does not necessarily mean it’s good for women.” theguardian.com/world/2024/dec…

Media coverage matters because it shapes public understanding of what's happening and of what's legal and ethical. Join us Friday for this @AcaforPalestine event to trace how we got here and what needs to happen next

Thursday week, DCU will host an @AcaforPalestine talk on #scholasticide by @wesaamamer

Google, Microsoft & Perplexity Are Promoting Scientific Racism in Search Results: “It's actually not surprising because Lynn's work has been accepted pretty unquestioningly in a huge area of academia. So the fault isn't with AI, the fault is with academia” wired.com/story/google-m…

There can be no left resistance to the reactionary onslaught without an uncompromising radical intersectional commitment You can't fight fascism if you're not fighting racism, transphobia, ableism, classism etc There can be no pick and choose and no opposing one to the other

@AndaIulia @portsmouthuni Congrats Anda! Extremely deserved!

Excited to share that at the beginning of next month, I am starting a new position as Lecture in Cybercrime @portsmouthuni Happy to continue my academic career with my first permanent and full-time position!🎉
