I'm looking for a book recommendation that is well researched but not dense that counters the anti migrant narrative. Something with flavor! Context: someone I know has said they think they're being persuaded by the anti migrant rhetoric. #Migration #AcademicSky #PoliticalTheory

Many feel it is their moral obligation to say so. But we know what it means to speak against Israelβs genocide: massive pushbacks.
So we're supporting them π

Interesting. I haven't found it to be clitchy at all as of yet. Are you using it on Windows, iOS, or Linux?

The fact that I won't be reliant on my university post viva for it is fantastic, and I find it to be a really clean UI. It's very stripped back. It serves the purpose though and that's all I need!

Whole area that used to be houses, shops, public transport routes, made into rubble and blackened, unliveable ruins. Aerial shot shows vast area entirely obliterated as habitable, attacked again and again by Israeli forces.
Several wrecked Gaza schools, shown from the air, pulverised by Israel's forces: windows all gaping, bombed out and covered in ash and dust. Some people are trying to live in makeshift camps amid the destruction, in former quadrangles and bomb sites.
Aerial shots of neighbourhoods with destroyed apartment buildings, houses, offices and shops, all bombed by Israel's government. Starving people are trying to live in tents and makeshift cubbies on the former roundabouts on a main road.
This what Israel has done to Gaza. Forbidden pics by a Washington Post photographer whose Jordanian air crew didn't pass on Israel's order to only photograph aid being dropped. City, suburbs, schools, people: bombed to rubble. People being starved in makeshift camps on road roundabouts. #Genocide

Israel threatened reprisals if the press filmed Gaza from above during airdrops.
This is why. A scene of destroyed & burnt out buildings in what is left of Gaza City, the pre-war home to 800,000 people.

We must expose the governmentβs complicity in genocide.

A βworst-case scenarioβ famine is unfolding in Gaza according to experts.
The World Food Programme says Gaza needs to be flooded with 'large-scale food aid' to βprevent mass starvationβ.
Now is the time for the UK government, and others, to ACT. There is no more time to waste.
Fully in support of this, not just within universities, but nationwide. Demonising addiction and substance misuse only isolates and ostracises individuals, rather than ensuring that they feel and know that a safe space exists should they ever need it.
