“We are at a moment right now where people are asking themselves why can’t the Democratic Party defend this assault on democracy . . . and I would submit to you that if you can’t draw the line at genocide, you probably can’t draw the line at democracy.”

Thinking of Sarah Clancy.
Israel has just arrested Greta Thunberg and many others.

Statement from the Global Sumud Flotilla:

“People of conscience have been abducted. The flotilla broke no laws. What is illegal is Israel’s genocide, Israel’s illegal blockade of Gaza, and Israel’s use of starvation as a weapon.”

Close to 65k watching the livefeed from the Global Sumud Flotilla off the coast of Gaza.

Israel seems to be intercepting right now.

All eyes needed.

Absolutely incredible turnout for Budapest Pride! So proud of all the organizers, including some old friends, who estimate hundreds of thousands— major embarrassment to Orban

Research tells us that the institutional response to disclosures, reports and complaints is often experienced as further abuse and violence. The HEA is showing real leadership commissioning this qualitative study and I'm honoured to be conducting it.
Sharing will give us richer, more diverse data

Excited to be starting interviews on reporting SGBV in Irish Higher Education Institutions.

You may see yourself in the study and consider taking part. Or you may be involved in networks that include survivors (I assure you, you are). Please read, like, share! 1/2

When I canvassed for a Yes vote in 2015, I walked alongside many very committed straight allies who were as passionate for change as I was. The referendum demonstrated that a majority of straight Irish people supported our community. They’re welcome at Pride.
