Academics need to acknowledge power imbalances between establishment academic & grassroots academic knowledge-producers on reparations; hence why we in PARCOE, co-founded @inosaar; see its Principles of Participation https://t.co/i9cGxVWv8u
Campaigners urge king to do more to acknowledge UK’s slavery role. Good to see @Xosei being quoted and @BellRibeiroAddy. Action needed to take all-party parliamentary commission of inquiry into truth and reparatory justice APPCITARJ forward https://t.co/EpSvXKFOwH
As #COP27 begins this weekend, the Global North must listen and learn from the Global South, who, for centuries, have been the true custodians of Mother Earth. Industrialised nations caused this existential threat. It is up to us to fix it.

.@TheGreenParty are a breath of fresh air to the stale politics of the old parties. It’s a party fit for the 21st Century. We have been taking council seats all over the country and if you want to see more of that in London, then get in touch now for #FairerGreenerCommunities
US HR40 legislation not a result of Ta-Nahisi Coates writing an article but due to many decades of trans-Oceanic struggle in Afrikan, European, Caribbean, Americas reparations movement... Prof Joyce Hope Scott @inosaar

I am currently dangling from a tripod, blocking the entrance to @rbc, the 5th largest fossil fuel funder in the world because decades of politely asking banks to stop fueling climate change hasn’t worked.
This should be all over the front pages. The government's terminating our right to protest, through amendments sneaked into the Police Bill at the last minute.

Given @ClarenceHouse comments on slavery last night, will Prince Charles back the call to establish an All-party parliamentary inquiry into atonement and reparatory justice for the transoceanic trafficking of enslaved Africans, as @TheGreenParty has asked? https://t.co/2tEdt7kGGg
In this video Tim reminds us of the #ClimateJustice activists we have lost in the last year, some killed for their actions, and those in the UK recently sentenced to prison. #FreeJamesBrown#Highway9. This case is about creating our own justice and uniting in resistance.
