Harvard Educational Review spent a year preparing a special issue on education in and about Palestine. In June, contributors were notified that the Harvard Education Publishing Group had abruptly canceled the issue's release.

This is censorship and cowardice.

Refugee education operates under the shadow of colonial praxis. Providing education to displaced children should not mean forcing them to abandon their language, culture, and identities. Education should not be a trade-off for assimilation but a means to empower without erasure.

Students queuing overnight in November 2024 to have somewhere to live for the 2025/26 academic year (at exorbitant cost, no doubt). It's no wonder property developers and landlords regard student accommodation as such a great investment. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
