someone said that ‘everyone is against colonialism until they’re not.’ Nothing is more evident of that than this ⬇️
Our hearts and heads are hurting enough without the museum sector rubbing salt into our gaping wounds!
Side by side, in case you needed it:

@MiddleEastEye@DalrympleWill Anyone wondering where @Sathnam is in all this? His voice has been obviously missing - for someone who researched and told stories of colonialism and empire….where you at now bro? 👀
@implausibleblog Bravo @GaryLineker - on point, every single time. Being human...with a heart! Also, just simple facts! Amol probs need to watch the news beyond BBC...
If we can’t stop the genocide in Gaza, the least we can do is bear witness to the crime.
A stunning column from @NesrineMalik, a titan of moral clarity as ever.

It’s a strange thing to cry for a stranger but I cried upon hearing the news. He was more than a statistic. He showed us everything good in this world, the honour of Islam, surrounded by the most evil.
May Allah accept his martyrdom, truly these must be the people of jannah
@Doylech BBC R4s @Emmabarnett alone should be top of that list of journos held accountable. The number of complaints she had for her reporting whivh has all gone unchecked. Absolute mouthpiece for the Israelis and struggles to give a once of humanity and to Palestinians.
“What could be more important right now?”
“Maybe the lives of Palestinians in Gaza right now…”
Actor Andrew Garfield called for people to put their “hearts” and “energy” towards Palestinians in Gaza during a podcast appearance on Thursday with Josh Horowitz in New York.
@irisstylosa@BeckettUnite anyone with a pulse should email @BBCRadio4 and complain about how unchecked the interview with the Israeli ambassador went. not sure why Emma Barnett is incapable of doing basic journalism. This isn't the first time.
@LBC@mrjamesob Do not underestimate the strength and bravery this took. Even pulls up on Sky News and their lacklustre headlining of the killed twins. @mrjamesob doing journalism here and reporting on what is actually happening to Palestinians. Protect him. And bring back @SangitaMyska too
Groups of racists are attempting to tear down mosques while worshippers are inside and broadcasters are being asking “why do we need to mention Islamophobia?” Respectfully, are you stupid or are you actively ignoring this because the implications are messy?
@ChantayyJayy@zarahsultana I would suggest everyone with a conscience and a pulse to email GMB and complain. I've just done it. Tweets they may ignore, but emails they can't.
@ramapublishing Waiting for @Emmabarnett to one day wake up and realise her feminism needs to reach more than just her few select white counterparts. Might be waiting a lifetime though
