All faculty should be supporting our students and lending solidarity and grace to those protesting and facing harassment, imprisonment, repression.
Protect students at protests.
Provide extensions on final papers/projects if needed.
Support them against university punishment.

Good luck to all faculty starting the new semester!

South Africa showed the world what anti-colonial solidarity looks like, what solid evidence-based legal prep is, how to apply international laws on the Genocide Convention equally at the International Course of Justice at The Hague.

Watch the full proceedings where South Africa brought a rigorous, evidenced & well-argued case in providing the war in Gaza violates the 1948 Genocide Convention:

Why does this site have so many (white) mansplainers and misogynists? It’s a real disincentive to being here more often. 🤦🏽‍♀️

Been thinking of my late mentor & collaborator Dr. Saleemul Huq & wondering what he would have had to say about #COP28. Or how his presence there might have informed, inspired, interrupted different discussions, as it had in all prior COPs. Pretty sure he would have had scathing words at the end.

Perhaps he was spared having to witness paltry commitments to #LossAndDamage & #Adaptation #climatefinance & lack of concrete plans on #JustTransition #fossilfuels

Listen to my interview with the #BBC Newshour on #COP28 outcomes, failures, gains & why I don’t think it's neither all hopium nor irrelevant. We cover climate justice, fossil fuel transitions, global overshoots, climate finance & impacts on frontline communities & ecosystems.

All eyes on #COP28 final document and what concrete plans are laid out. Equitable and fair outcomes are critically important. #fossilfuelphaseout has to be matched with viable, affordable, available #renewables & #justtransition. Funding for #LossAndDamage & #ClimateAdaptation are critical alongside mechanisms for accountability. Fast action has to be matched with #ClimateJustice.

The untimely death of a masterful climate communicator Dr Saleemul Huq is a huge blow to the international climate community, especially with the #COP28 around the corner.
