Totdat sancties in beeld komen blijft druk uitoefenen belangrijk. Een geëigend kanaal daarvoor is via de ambassade, want die houdt nationaal een ‘vinger aan de pols’. Dus klim in die pen, en stuur je zorgen (woede, verdriet, etc) naar de Israëlische ambassade 📧📨

You say: “All options remain on the table if Israel doesn’t deliver on its pledges.” And those options will remain there. Genocides continue without real action. DO SOMETHING MEANINGFUL! Break ties, introduce sanctions that hurt, ban arm transfers, escort aid trucks into #Gaza, #stopgenocide

Maybe the 2.5 pages on the four ‘horsemen’ in Climate Endgame: Exploring catastrophic climate change scenarios? Or the first (?) chapter in Robinson’s The Ministry for the Future

Addressing the trouble with #race in #anthropology, Clever & Jong argue, requires a comprehensive reevaluation of scientific practices, its methods and technologies, and would benefit from interdisciplinary collaboration within anthropology and beyond. #forensic #STS
