Solidarity to all those on strike this week. Special mention to my past and present lecturers who I value and admire hugely. Your hard work and support doesn’t go unnoticed by your students. We’ve got your backs. #UCUstrike #OneOfUsAllOfUs

Soon, academics who stayed quiet when it was most urgent to speak out will publish articles and books on the encampments.

One’s academic career will never be more important than speaking out and organizing against the systematic killing of people in Gaza. Those who know this and put it into practice will not be silenced any time soon.
