Umar Khalid says, “People around me are falling sick. One person also died. An old man. He dropped dead, possibly because of the heat. I’m not sure. No one is. But everyone suspects it’s the heat that killed him.” On heat as/and carceral violence.

I’m so in awe of and inspired by this amazing complaint collective, as @SaraNAhmed puts it. @routledgebooks deserves to be boycotted for silencing complaints of sexual harassment. Please amplify the work of these scholars (reach, teach, and cite). More power to you.

In March last year @ErinPritchard15 & i edited a book & it was published. Today, it is now unpublished, it has been silenced &we have received a reversion of rights. Im proud of this collection, of everyone who wrote a chapter, the bravery of every single author. We will be back.

Another nail in the coffin. The gutting of Universities, especially in the humanities and social sciences, across the world is genuinely alarming.

@Kishore1KJ Yes, and MP too:

As MP districts sizzle at 46 degrees, bats, birds fall dead from trees due to heatstroke

In Madhya Pradesh’s Ratlam, temperatures have soared past 46 degree Celsius, leading to the death of several bats from sunstroke.

“The rise of private universities has further increased the anxiety of job-seekers. While one can argue that their existence offers more opportunities for job aspirants, there is also a flipside. The more reputed private universities display a preference for foreign degrees”.

Wrote an editorial comment on @epw_in on the contractualisation/casualisation of academic labour. It is an issue close to me and I am glad that EPW has published the piece. It's high time we begin these conversations about gig work in indian academia.

@veenadubal I cannot begin to imagine the depth of your sorrow. Sam was a truly remarkable soul. His compassion and commitment to justice left a deep impression on us from the moment we first met him. I am holding you and your family in the light. I hope he is at peace.

@AOHSUsometimesY I can only imagine. It’s maddening. I felt the same dislocation when I was in India this winter, and folks were telling me COVID was done while the US was collapsing.

“In recent conflicts, indirect deaths range from 3 to 15 times the number of direct deaths…it is not implausible to estimate that up to 186 000 or even more deaths could be attributable to the current conflict in Gaza.” This is utterly devastating.

Counting the dead in Gaza: difficult but essential

By June 19, 2024, 37 396 people had been killed in the Gaza Strip since the attack by Hamas and the Israeli invasion in October, 2023, according to the Gaza Health Ministry, as reported by the UN...

@SouthAsianBuoy Yes, please. I'm trying not to lose my shit at colleagues who think that only students (let alone staff and faculty) in South Asia have the right to be affected by what is going on. It's horrendous enough as is without having to constantly explain your mental state to people.
