'Michael Lynas, the UK country director for the Duolingo language app, who argues there is no good substitute for the hard graft of learning a language as a way of seeing another country’s culture from the inside.' 1/3
Universities blame ‘societal shift’ for axing foreign language degrees
Numbers taking languages at A-level and beyond has been falling for decades, although Duolingo says its app is most popular with young people

Today the #FreedomFlotilla Coalition set sail with roughly 100 people aboard 'Conscience' - with many healthcare workers & journalists. Our goal is to break Israel’s illegal siege, to provide international correspondents chances to report from #Gaza, & deliver urgently needed medical support.
Background image of Conscience vessel at sea. Text "The Conscience, MEDIA & MEDICS BOAT TO GAZA HAS LAUNCHED. Joining the 8 boats that set sail on 27 Sept to break Israel's illegal siege. For nearly 2 years, foreign reporters have been banned from Gaza. Palestinian journalists have faced assassination, imprisonment and daily danger. Gaza's health workers have been killed, abducted and tortured, while most international medics are barred from entering. Today we sail in solidarity with our colleagues. We will keep fighting to reach Gaza's shores and amplify the truth of Israel's genocide of the Palestinian people of Gaza alongside them." Top right: FFC and TMtG logos.

Breaking!

City of Burnaby just became first city in Canada to join arms embargo movement against Israel AND the first Apartheid-Free City, breaking ties with Israeli apartheid and settler colonialism.

We've been organizing for months towards this precedent in colonial Canada.
