I wonder how long before everyone participating in this mass psychosis will pretend they were always against it


Maybe we need Media Studies after all.

A new article by @EmmaHCasey and I has just been published open access in @TheSocReview: 'Scouring away the crisis? Mrs Hinch, the rise of the cleanfluencer and the neoliberal refashioning of housework' You can read it here: journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/00…

Thanks to everyone who came to anniversary event of The Changing Face of football… an incredible day and the reflections on the book were so insightful and humbling - I loved the description of the book as ‘companionable’. It really felt like an assembly of companions. Thank you

Thank you to @MetroUK for showcasing my piece on life with a diagnosis of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. It was hard to write, but within the sadness there is still hope. What it feels like... to receive a fatal diagnosis for your son metro.co.uk/2021/01/03/wha…

.@UEL_News Gargi Bhattacharyya and Corinne Squire are important writers, dedicated teachers and energetic union organisers at UEL. It's appalling that the management has targeted them--and others--for redundancy because of their UCU activities Please spread this news far & wide.

My son Hermes (9) had a good cry this evening, he's scared about losing his ability to walk as the disease progresses but said he'd feel better if he could chat to other boys in his shoes. If your #Duchenne boy is losing ambulation too & looking for a friend, pls DM me ❤#dmd

Please sign this petition to rename Beckford Primary School, currently named after William Beckford who was a slave owner, after my late grandmother Beryl Gilroy, who was headteacher there and one of the UK's first black headteachers. change.org/p/william-beck…

We don't object to "science & evidence" - we object to Koch-funded, Spiked-promoted gaslighting. Ida B. Wells & W.E.B. DuBois were developing "science & evidence" techniques in the service of justice well before your racist heroes knew what a data visualisation was.

Paul Gilroy and Gary Younge @garyyounge, Professor of Sociology at Manchester University, reflect on Mark Twain’s reputed words ‘history doesn’t repeat itself but it rhymes’, and consider the potential in engaging sympathy and humour critically soundcloud.com/ucl-arts-socia…

#Sociologists take note. Mirza has a PhD in Sociology from Kent and believes that institutional racism is a myth.Between this & a Sociology degree among one of the police officers involved in the death of #GeorgeFloyd, it's time for some serious disciplinary introspection.

Honestly toxic views

RIP to all who lost their lives in the Grenfell tragedy. Justice is still pending

1/ Following the release of the Broken Pipeline report last yr, more unis have been using positive action via scholarships. We thought it was a good time to highlight some of the report recommendations institutions may have missed... leadingroutes.org/the-broken-pip…
