Loved watching the #SportClimbing quals today, first time I'm actually excited about the #Olympics ! Micka Mawem's perf on M2&M3 was amazing, but not liking the look of Bassa Mawem's bicep injury 😨. Can't wait for the women's quals tomorrow #Tokyo2020

BIRTHDAY BOY!! 🎁🥳🎂 Mickael Mawem 🇫🇷 – Bassa's younger brother – just crushed the men's Combined Boulder qualification, closing with three tops and four zones. RT to wish him a happy 31st! #Olympics #Tokyo2020 #SportClimbing #ClimbToTokyo #StrongerTogether #UnitedByEmotion

Our research shows that SHAPE students go onto valued, well-paid employment with the same success as STEM graduates. These graduates are vital for the UK economy – 8/10 of the fastest growing sectors employ more graduates from SHAPE than other disciplines.

Emily is great, and if any PhDs are looking for a career outside academia then this is an ideal organisation to look at.

Brilliant must-read piece by @gitanjalipatel_ & @nariology on multilingualism, colonialism, translation, "diversity", erasure, gatekeeping, narrow norms of Englishes, lgc violence.. 1 of the reasons I cherish the work of @symptotejrnl (& @TiltedAxisPress) https://t.co/ivgaQITQS5

Excellent thread and examples - @ScholarAkassi1 's TL is always full of treasures, thank you!

Looking forward to more info on this 👇 - upside of the switch to online events is being able to access conferences I wouln't be able to travel to otherwise

In 2021, we're still at "lges=European lges", everything else is "community" and somehow less than. What a load of BS. YP's multilingualism is a strength for uni studies, and should be valued, not discounted.

Il faut noter l’ironie de cette situation. Après avoir relégué les écrivains français et britanniques au second plan, la périphérie se contente de revalider systématiquement le centre en enseignant les écrivains africains précis et reconnus au centre.  https://t.co/mZOQeIYvHq

Parisian accents in the 1910s. Amazing archive

OUT NOW UK Poverty 2020/21. Our leading independent report reveals how the impact of a decade of deprivation coupled with #COVID19 and #lockdown has hit people trapped in poverty the hardest. Government policies must keep people afloat, not pull them under https://t.co/sMNr3zdycx

Ministers and Chartwells are responsible for the food box scandal but don’t stop there. Every Daily Mail “scroungers” front page. Every Tory MP who said poor parents “can’t budget.” Every Telegraph columnist who cheered cuts. You took us to this place where kids are fed scraps.

"Scholarly writing and argument as dialogue": definitely yes. Coupled with knowledge cultivation over production (as explained by @RobbieShilliam ). Because research is NEVER a solitary "contribution to knowledge" but a constant tilling and learning in dialogue

Once again @GKBhambra has created a treasure of a resource for anyone teaching / studying IR, History, Area Studies and Politics. A fantastic complement to the brilliant

Very important thread for academics. People are not data. "People don't owe us their stories". If only you gain from a project and not your participants, all you're doing is exploiting people's trauma for a career boost...

Happy Windrush Day to the people who took the risk of leaving everything they knew behind to come and rebuild a country that has barely recognised their contributions. We’re grateful for you and we thank you.

Soweto Uprising: A thread Today is one of the most important days of the year for us. It is the anniversary of the student uprisings in Soweto. On June 16th 1976 children took to the streets to protest the imposition of the language of their coloniser in schools.

Looking forward to August!!

For any parents that have been homeschooling & have wanted to cover topics of colonialism & civil rights: ConsentedUK have been designing KS3 curriculum w. history teachers in S. London- one to watch. There is also a YT channel: RaceinBritain, via @ShyRadicals images: consenteduk
