Prof Gargi Bhattacharyya is one of the UK’s most eminent scholars of race and capitalism - & a brilliant teacher + union organiser.

She is being made redundant by @UEL_News in an apparent targeting of union organisers.

"For 500 years, capital has relied on the devaluation of lives in the global South. The $1.90 line is the legacy of this long history. It is part of a colonial ideology that sees people of colour as cheap." https://t.co/hqnnyo0UOO

@DylanBrownie1 @ronanburtenshaw It's not about the leadership challenge or when it was. It's about her politics and what she stands for

I don't want Keir Starmer to take a knee in an empty conference room, I want him to take the report which exposed antiblack and Islamophobic racism in his own party seriously.
