Please donate if you can - Sue is a a disabled PhD student living under threat of deportation while suffering from stage 5 kidney disease and could really use your help. Her full story is here: gofundme.com/f/weareallsue-…

If academics in UCU don't engage in strike action for Palestine this academic year, expect the same methods used against Richard Barnard to be implemented on a wider scale against academic & PGR staff who are fighting for Palestinian liberation. We are already seeing it happen.

A vitally important 🧵that will come as no shock to those of us who have been pointing to this issue that UK higher education is extremely Islamophobic.

Disabled Black migrants matter! Sue has taken on so much to fight against structural racism & xenophobia. UnisResistBorders #WearAMask #BordersKillKnowledge along with support from No More Exclusions #Free 🇵🇸 & UCU branches, Birmingham UCU Warwick UCU among others are urging ppl to continue to show solidarity w/ #WeAreAllSue ⬇️

A note to UK migrant students who mistakenly believe that protesting & striking will lead to immigration problems. In Canada, migrant students are doing just that. They are fighting for better treatment. You don't better treatment through pleading with unis + the Home Office.

This piece is related to Canada's xeno-racist borders, but also explains the current situation in the UK. As the piece aptly states, "migration exploitation machine" is a "bipartisan" effort. Again, we see the same in the UK. The Labour Party & Conservatives both are guilty of this.

.UnisResistBorders #WearAMask #BordersKillKnowledge takes seriously Covid mitigations. As migrants who are impacted by the #HostileEnvironment in all facets, including within the NHS, we believe that keeping each other safe & healthy in times of increasing border violence is vitally important.

Sue was discharged yesterday after spending 1 week in hospital to stabilise her kidneys. Thanks Warwick UCU for your donation! Please continue to give generously to her f*ndraiser. We're only £1,150 away from meeting our goal: tiny.cc/GiveToSue #WeAreAllSue

Full solidarity with Dana Abu Qamar ✊🏽 Support Palestinian & migrant students targeted by the state by having their visas weaponised for their activism to liberate 🇵🇸. Last year, Jenrick sought to deport migrants who he claimed supported Hamas. theguardian.com/politics/artic…

As the new academic year begins, we must recommit to stand with our Palestinian colleagues in Gaza and to hold Israeli universities accountable for their role in destroying Palestinian campuses #AcademicBoycottNow
