Thanks @georgegilbert.bsky.social for the invitation to speak at Southampton today. It was good to have the chance to talk Armenia and histories of displacement, and to share some of the images I’ve found during the years I’ve been researching this topic.

Does anyone have access to this article? John D. Klier, “‘Traditional
Russian Religious Antisemitism’: A Useful Concept or a Barrier to Understanding?,” Jewish
Quarterly 46, 2 (1999), pp. 29–34

No payment offered, sadly, apart from my undying love and respect, cheers.

A lot in here I found very interesting - shows understanding far beyond most of what we are presented with in typical journalism. Thanks for writing.

Today's "Anti-War March" in Berlin, led by Navalnaya, Kara-Murza & Yashin seems an appropiate day to re-publish my essay on why the West and in particular Germany should take a closer look at the self-proclaimed leaders of the Russian opposition in English:
Anti-Putin does not mean anti-imperial. Why the romanticisation of Russian dissidents is misleading
In the German debate on the Russian anti-Putin camp, the problematic aspects of this milieu are often ignored. The Russian perspective continues to be prioritized other those of the colonized.
