My book is out! The Financial Colonisation of Aotearoa tells the story of the financial instruments and imperatives that drove the British colonial project in Aotearoa in the nineteenth century.

My essay in Critical Legal Thinking on the idea of 'elimination' in the critique of settler colonialism, its roots in Palestinian critiques of Zionist imperialism, and its significance at this moment

Adnan Bursh, educated at King's College London, was tortured to death by Israeli soldiers. @KCLalumni @KingsCollegeLon your silence is deafening.

[Younis Tirawi | يونس @ytirawi]

Today, all of Palestine grieves the loss of Professor Adnan Bursh, the renowned surgeon of Shifa Hospital in Gaza, who was tortured to death by Israeli soldiers while in prison.

In Nov, soldiers forced him out of Shifa Hospital before later abducting him at Awda Hospital.🕯️

@maxdnharris review of my book places it in context of a resurgence of materialist accounts of Aotearoa's history and argues it is pertinent to contemporary developments in law, politics, and economy

He is in Estonia. Estonia is not at war, and according to the Foreign Office is safe to visit.

Who is he camouflaging himself from?

Our aggregation of news reports since 7 Oct suggests that hospitals in Gaza are subjected to a repeated pattern of intimidation, direct targeting, siege, and occupation by the Israeli military: https://t.co/D2coM0oPOA
