About a year ago, I sat down with @SaskiaBonjour and @ersanilli_e with a list of complaints about the publishing industry. Today we finally launch our fully open access, slow scholarship, owned by scholars journal https://t.co/VjIximjIPQ.

So the Wits Senate finally published its statement on Gaza calling for an immediate, unconditional and permanent ceasefire. It took months of work to get here. Iโd be much more excited if it was February and not July, but at least we got there in the end https://t.co/L1v50cAvey

Not a sea change in British politics but a splintering of the right. I guess I'll take it?

I can promise, Joel is much more than a beard and moustache. Looking forward to having him in Amsterdam! Amazing scholar, super generous with early career scholars.

Can't wait for this first opportunity to present some of the work @Enrikevw and I are doing as part of our Decolonising Outer Space project - and in conversation with an amazing artist and author. Should be fun!

UVA management admitted this morning that its strategy of violent escalation failed. 4 steps to a dignified defeat: 1. Acknowledge the ICJ ruling on genocide. 2. Agree to end complicity in genocide. 3. Let students occupy the REC lawns. 4. Guarantee their safety.

Over the last two years or so @darshanvv and I have started debating, exploring, and worrying about the colonial and material politics of outer space. In our new @RISjnl piece we lay out why! โญ๏ธ

Dear @UvA_Amsterdam, who was responsible for the decision to call the police on Monday night? Who is responsible for the decision today? As a bare minimum, your students and your staff deserve a statement that does not contradict other official sources.
The police has issued a statement on Monday's events, from which it becomes clear that the CvB, contrary to some of their previous claims, a. lodged a formal complaint for trespassing, and b. demanded action.

A comprehensive little video showing the unbelievable violence unleashed by the @UvA_Amsterdam board on their own students.

Join colleagues at the UvA in this walkout protest against the actions of our executive board. It is not a crime to protest genocide. Asking the police to violently evict protesting students is an abdication of our most basic responsibility as educators.

Amazing to see this mixed methods piece with @darshanvv out and open access! Fun fact: this paper maps my journey from its origins at @UvA_AISSR as Master's student, to my PhD in @ikmb_unibe, and back to @UvA_ASCoR where I am now a postdoc!

I learned a lot working with @edeleonw on this piece. Looking forward to bringing on 2 new phds to do the street level research we envisage along with @anja_franck, @janderwicki, @ACMSWits and @elcolef
