Guardian headline: ‘We’re too frightened to talk about immigration,’ warns top Labour party veteran
No, it's quite the opposite
Labour is too frightened *not* to talk about immigration and to switch the agenda instead because it has no response for the many real crises facing us
Immigration is a useful diversion for some and an obsession for reactionaries in its ranks
Extremely dangerous for the safety of Black women -that white establishment figures can so casually, publicly incite hate & racial violence against Black women MPs and Black women - without legal or social consequences.
Yet, ‘anti-white racism’ is a thing. Sigh.

The Guardian Australia article Alana Lentin and I wrote on #SamKerr on the myth of 'anti-white racism' was published with a few important details missing in the published version - so here's our ORIGINAL version.

I co-wrote this piece with Assoc Prof Alana Lentin on the misconceived notion of ‘anti-white racism’ & ‘reverse racism’.
We articulate a deeper understanding of the function of race in a world still divided by the ‘colour line’ as W.E.B Dubois stated at turn of 20th Century.

Guardian headline: Lee Anderson says public supports him over Sadiq Khan comments
Why does the Guardian lead with what Anderson thinks "the public" believe rather than about what it does based on more expert sources or what it could if the focus wasn't solely placed on far right issues?
This is what populist hype is in a nutshell
“To stand on German soil as the son of Holocaust survivors and call for a ceasefire – and to then be labelled as antisemitic is not only outrageous, it is also literally putting Jewish lives in danger,” Abraham told the Guardian.“

Wow.
Mental illness does not get to be empire's convenient movable target so that what it wishes to dismiss or exonerate is called madness.
No doubt this book will be an essential read for anyone involved in professional football at any level.
Looking forward to reading your book, Miguel.
Unspeakable.

This is the subtext to the great resegregation, an unyielding belief in the fiction of race that renders the minimal presence of non white people in the upper echelons of American society an injustice that must be rectified www.theguardian.com/world/2024/j...
"“You wrote a book on genocide and you’re still working for the administration: You should resign and speak out,” said Agnieszka Sykes, a global health specialist who told The Washington Post she left her job at USAID late last week."

Fascinating to see how quickly Meloni has been accepted as part of business as usual
Her being far right is hardly mentioned and her plan to "expand Italian influence in Africa" not contextualised in this light at all
After all, the mainstream agrees

International Court of Justice Press release
A couple more hours until the ICJ.
As the ICJ prepares to hand down provisional measures - it’s not just the reputation of int’l law which hangs in the balance - it’s also the very legitimacy of ICJ should it deviate from its jurisprudence without compelling justification.
Killed 20th January 1973. Through his biography, his own words, & the music of those who remember him, I invite us once again to think critically about what decolonisation means through the life of a man who lived and died for it. Long live Amilcar Cabral. folukeafrica.com/amilcar-cabr...
Watch south Africa’s ICJ case against Israel’s genocide January 11, 10AM CET January 12, 10AM CET www.webtv.un.org
Here’s how to watch South Africa’s ICJ case against Israel:
Underneath the rhetoric centering themselves as victims while committing genocide - feeling threatened by anti genocide protests while affirming the right of a racial ethno colony to ‘defend itself’ - Zionists are just your common garden variety racists and white supremacists.
Put aside far right wing attacks on Black academics - one has to wonder how Bari Weiss’ opposition to DEI squares with that of Black Jews - and its implications for the intersection between religion, ethnicity and race?
Weiss is leaning into whiteness and erasing Black Jews.
3/3 There’s plenty of good research and data on player workload, if only pundits like Shearer and Sherwood actually bother to seek it out and read.
