Kudos to #Spain for joining #SouthAfrica's genocide case against Israel at the CIJ_ICJ. I hope this marks the beginning of more Western countries taking similar actions. It’s not too late to stand on the right side of history. Words of condemnation are meaningless without

Bless those who do not vote for genocide Who know trading arms is not the way Who love children everyday to be raised in peace and who know that the dignity of every human is inviolable Bless those who vote for a world of justice and generosity and peace

300 days From U.K. statement anyone would think that the death toll was all in Israel and on 1 day last year. This makes leaders look incompetent and frankly ridiculous. There is a 76 year history and a siege on Gaza since 2007 by the illegal occupiers, the apartheid state

Powerful speech by Gehan Macleod, co-founder of the GalGael Trust Trust, to celebrate 30 years since the Pollok Free State motorway protest in Glasgow. In so many ways, Gehan has inspired & sustained the GalGael since Colin’s passing in 2005 aged 39. See also youtu.be/ChcZchk0mok?si…

An honour to be there…

Black History Month in UofG Unesco RIELA 🧡 team is too often about team members being invited to “Look Back and Be Angry” rather than life affirming work. At last minute a rush of diary invites (often unpaid) to come along for a month to be a “dancing bear” (not my words) Do better.

I cannot believe people have been so utterly abandoned to complete systematic, annihalation when this could be stopped by willing leaders. Mercy.

ruth wishart I think most folk have no idea of how dangerous a moment in history we’re inhabiting Ruth. And I say that - as you and I know well - as children of the Cold War’s scariest moments. This is way more perilous a time.

To be horrified daily To not become immune To have empathy To find words where we are silenced To find silence to mourn To weep To hold fast the reason To hold fast To hand fast reason through the flames

To know only of death And to love To know that there are no shrouds left And to love To keep watch with the dying To abide with the suffering To find the words even when the only word that does not fail Is love.

It is apocalyptic
