So many lessons learned by my early inspiration, Assata Shakur. I've been meditating on her words especially often lately, as I work her prison writings into a book chapter. Can't explain what she has meant for my organising and thinking...

Join me w @susanstryker.bsky.social & @onnigust.bsky.social in transnational thought. ✨ By foregrounding trans scholarship & its intersections with decolonial & abolitionist frameworks, this dialogue will inspire action & reimagine pathways toward collective liberation. www.lse.ac.uk/Events/2025/...

This Wednesday with the Mannheim Centre for Criminology at LSE! Register here to attend: department-of-social-policy-lse.ticketleap.com/mannheim-cen... @lsesocialpolicy.bsky.social

Last wk in my course Abolitionist & Anticarceral Feminisms, we discussed carceral spatial politics + focused on Gilmore & Walia to assess criminalisation as an instrument of state-sanctioned human trafficking. It was great to think abt this with the "illegalisation" of migration. So many 💡s went off

It's mother's birthday (Angela Davis) and I'm writing the conclusion of a manuscript that is absolutely in honour of her work to forge a coalitional politic against sexual violence 🥺🙏🏾 we love you, we thank you, we honour you.

What an honour it was to be invited by Zanele Muholi to contribute to the closing discussions for Muholi's exhibition at the Tate. Faces and Phases is such a beautiful and powerful intervention to global understanding of Black queerness. If you haven't seen it yet, you've got til 26/1/25! #Blacksky

BLACK QUEER/TRANS PARENT NEEDS YOUR HELP. Our community member spent the holidays fearing that this may be the last one with their kid. Can you spare £5 or £10 to make sure they have legal representation to fight international relocation? www.gofundme.com/f/renny-and-... #trans #queer #lgbtrights

First public lecture for this term is in less than a month! You can register to attend here: department-of-social-policy-lse.ticketleap.com/mannheim-cen...

One of my sweet kiddos gifted me this for Christmas and I spent the day in bliss.

New handbook for next term is complete 🙌🏾 and I am SO excited about how many books on abolition have come out since I last taught my undergrad version of the course (in 2020). 📚

My book, The Economies of Queer Inclusion, challenges assumptions about Euro-American human rights interventions by critiquing the impact of transnational financing and politics on LGBTI organising in Uganda. It’s a Black feminist love letter/protection spell 4 queer African organising. 📚 (2/9)
