We have to admire Jewish people of conscience everywhere who are refusing oppression & violence undertaken in their name. It is a tremendous act of courage to stand up to power in one's own community, particularly when that community has a very real history of shared suffering.

Yesterday we played football over the barbed wire in front of Lithuania's presidential palace. That was our protest against the cynical legalisation of migrant pushbacks and the ' human ping-pong' at the border. All my love today for activists and #sienosgrupe

Thought-provoking lecture today @UGent by ali meghji on synergies between critical race theory and decoloniality and rejecting desire for universalism in order to build more complete accounts of social analysis. 👈

Lithuania has joined the ranks of illiberal democracies, as yesterday its Parliament with an overwhelming majority legalised pushbacks. Join our protest on Friday, 12:30 in front of the Vilnius presidential palace, asking the president to VETO the bill. We are angry! #departheid

NOT UNDER OUR WATCH! Lithuanian gov wants to legalise pushbacks and create an institute of civilian border patrols who could use violence against migrants. If you are an academic, join our open letter to Lithuanian government against these amendments.

As we count new cases of migrant deaths at the border. Lithuanian Parliament's HR Committee just voted in favour of legalising pushbacks. Tomas Vytautas Raskevičius 🇺🇦 the chair of the committee justifies it as a law 'with a human face'. Does not sound humane to me.
