This was a delightful human-animal studies lens for learning more about Hong Kong's history by @JohnSaeki.

Undertaking this research on Pakistan’s prison system for @JusticeProject_  was a career highlight. Glad to see it published @himalistan for a wider audience, particularly the provincial analysis. https://t.co/YRcIU4jc34 for a deeper anthro dive and more ex-prisoner accounts

"There has yet been no attempt to address one of the most urgent issues facing Pakistan’s prisons, which is overcrowding."

Afghan refugees ordered out of Pakistan continued their arduous, and often, humiliating exit from the country, which many of whom have been calling home for decades.
I met some of those Afghan families at the Torkham border.

Here’s my @thewalrus feature on the public library's remarkable transformation—from simple book repository to “the last public place.” It turns out asking libraries, and librarians, to fill every gap in a fraying social safety net is kind of a disaster. https://t.co/pDZPtkFWvC

@CebuPacificAir Worst customer service ever. I expect a response from Charlie.

A welcome judgment from the Sindh High Court by Yousuf A. Sayeed J refusing to stay the exhibition of Joyland. He rightly points out that neither our religion nor our society is so weak that it will crumble in front of a film that humanises transgenders.

This book was a real labour of love from @JusticeProject_ . It tells the story of the evolution of Pakistan's Prisons in it provincial, historical and anthropological context. We cannot devise strategies for reform if we do not understand the origins of the system.

It disgusted me to write this, but universities almost never fire tenured sexual predators. Read this if you are in trouble. Read it to protect other women students & colleagues who are in trouble. Then, wage war to make this stop.

Mentally ill prisoners fall through the cracks in our justice system, often due to a lack of awareness and understanding of mental health.

Join us today at 4pm as we have an in-depth discussion with psychiatric and legal experts on the subject.

I recently gave a talk for PACE at @CRSSpak telling stories from my disaporic experience navigating the dialectic of feminism and culture, and how that shapes my understanding of ‘gender empowerment’ work in Pakistan. Some highlights. https://t.co/YDvOlKPVZO
