Reparative Praxis with Gaza This guest post by Dr. Khawla Badwan asks: What does it mean to repair with Gaza?

"Without Gaza, our scholarship loses its value. Without Gaza, our education loses its meaning. Without Gaza, our values lose their mooring. Without Gaza, our world loses its order. Without Gaza, our words lose their holding"
#GazaMatters #GazaGenocide

Am I old fashioned?! If you host an online talk, do you stay online for a few minutes at the end to debrief with the speaker after participants have left? A little human connection. Or do we all just hit the "leave meeting" button and get back to our emails?!

UK's food bank crisis is violating our basic human rights Food banks are a violation of our human right to food on an unprecedented scale. Hunger should spark outrage, writes Just Fair’s Alex Firth.

Hunger is a violation of basic human rights – we should be outraged by UK's food bank crisis.

Work doesn't pay. 38% of universal credit claimants are at work.

1% has more wealth than 70% of the population combined.

Must redistribute income/wealth. Tax the rich.
