(3) For those who engage with decolonialisation work, the epistemic cannot be separated from the political. Settler colonisation is happening in Sheikh Jarrah in East Jerusalem. Leverage your skills and position to amplify Palestinian voices. We need your solidarity.

[Basma Hajir @basma_hajir]

(1) Dear academics,

This is a moment for us to live up to our share of responsibility as intellectuals. It is a moment for us to condemn ongoing ethnic cleansing of Palestinians and the brutal attacks against youths resisting erasure as the immediate source of current violence.

If we understand the nation-state as an inherently racialised entity, can political action oriented towards the state lift us out of our unequal foundational conditions?

Our call for blogs aims to explore this, and other, questions!

We can't wait for this event!

[The Politics of Representation Collective @PolofRep]

Our new call for blogs raises questions such as:

Given the wealth of scholarship demonstrating structural racism across and beyond borders, is justice even possible within the nation-state?

Our new call for blogs raises questions such as:

How are representations of, and possibilities for, political action embedded within wider racialised discourses of political legitimacy?
