👇🏽 The only thing of interest to the #EuropeanUnion in #Tunisia has long been migration control - and now this justifies (as so often) bolstering the dictatorship and the Tunisian #policestate that has already dismantled much of what had been built in tiresome work post-2011

So many people are making the same excellent points on Palestine.
Repeat after me: I will not amplify or provide a platform to someone who says the right stuff on Palestine but erases and denies the atrocities experienced by Syrians, Uyghurs, or anyone else.

As it is, global south nations may not reach widespread vaccination until 2023 as pharma companies want to keep their recipes secret. Many people and govts have called to suspend patent protections. Why are we leaving vaccine distribution up to the market. theguardian.com/commentisfre…

4 weeks into hybrid #teachinginapandemic: 1) Teachers are already starting to burn out. 2) Navigating trauma-informed practices is challenging without some kind of support. 3) I personally struggle teaching 'heavy' subjects during these heavy times.

On this 9/11, a thought for the victims of the terrorist attacks in the US, but also to all the victims of the subsequent US "war on terror" in #Iraq, #Afghanistan & so many other countries. Their lives were also ripped apart as a consequence of that terrible day.

Lack of transparency and a disconnect between call centres in Tunisia & Morocco and their multinational clients puts workers at risk.
Companies using outsourced call centre services should undertake thorough #DueDiligence to protect workers' rights 👉bit.ly/3ie6p7M
