Hiroshima becomes a unit
On #language as rebellion, preservation, and imagination:
words with wings

This Sunday
Join us for an evening of poetry reading, solidarity and witness. Join us as we word the world with Gaza in this medicinal ritual of making the articulation of pain possible and pronouncable. Free tickets: tickettailor.com/events/sdhepreβ¦
From language defeat to language rebellion: #Linguistics for genocidal times
in withness with souls
crushed into non-being
On language structures under genocidal violence
There are no new words
but new combinations
On the collapse of language and the public embodiment of pain
His face said it all
#GazaGenocideβ
Undanced Peace I am undancing their unpeace The sly words cannot reach Their undanced peace But the fierce thinking in my head And the hard beating of my heart And the standing firm in my feet And the reaching but never touching of hands Separated by siege Separated by death Separated by crimes Separated by walls They will undance their unpeace
Undanced Peace

On the meaning and mattering of language:
'Word my world', a voice cries
before leaving the world
#GazaGenocideβ
From interculturality to solidarity: with the other and beyond the self
Let Gaza hold your hand
To a world of unfinished struggle
Colonial Peace The land is annexed Apartheid reigns Olive trees are uprooted Settlers prowl Bulldozers and bombs destroy what is not theirs. Colonial 'peace' The enduring curse of The Wicked
Colonial Peace

It remains very true
It's OK to declare
We. Are. Not. OK
It's with humbling honour that we receive this award in the category of Research Collaboration & Innovation for our #VoicesoftheFuture. Thanks to all children & young people who challenged us to rethink what we knew about the social & cultural significance of urban treescapes

Thank you to Oxford Brookes Children and Young People Network for inviting me to deliver this timely talk on #Palestine and #YoungPeople. It focuses on edu-caring and pedagogies of care as an antidote to aphasic being with #Gaza
