1/This is one of the messages in the WhatsApp group. I think power is an important dimension to the discussion of what to leak and what not to leak. I see here the group "Lawyers for Israel" - a group of 250+ lawyers with 6 teams - one of which is Campus Watch. Image
2/ I also saw on that list many of my colleagues names - none of whom is an anti-Semite. The list of names clearly shows a targeting of my Arab colleagues, my Indigenous colleagues, and my non-Zionist Jewish colleagues. I find this deeply disturbing and deeply racist.
3/ @anthroprofhage : "Believing in a multi-religious society and critiquing those who work against it is not antisemitism. I will not accept to be put in a defensive position where I have to justify myself for holding and working for such ideals."

1/ We are hearing more and more about censorship of professionals such as doctors, academics and journalists who speak up on Palestine. We don't hear about the 'little people' who are also losing jobs and livelihoods because of Zionist pushback. So here is a thread you can add to
2/ Two examples from this week. Case 1 a mens' hairdresser who cut my son's hair on Friday. The hairdresser told me (noticing my Free Palestine dove avatar) that he has supported Palestine for years. He previously owned a salon in wealthy Double Bay -Sydney's Eastern Suburbs ...
3/ During the 2014 war on Gaza he talked to clients and friends to raise awareness on Palestine. Zionists got wind and instigated a smear campaign. He lost so many clients that he had to close his business. Now he has to work for someone else on other side of town.

1/ Non political / non-academic friends - you need to know what is happening in the Australian media right now.
You may not be aware that the South African case arguing Israel's actions in Gaza amount to Genocide began in the International Court of Justice on Thursday. 🧵
2/ Thousands of experts and observers around the world tuned into the livestream to listen to the South African case on Thursday setting out piece by piece over 3 hours the claim that Israel is committing genocide in Gaza.
3/ Some international media reported it. Guardian did OK.

Thread: 1/7 We must defend the centrality of sociology and critical HASS disciplines to healthy, functioning society and democracy. These are the disciplines that hold power to account, that must have the freedom to exercise critique without fear or favour.@SaveSocSciUWA
2/7 A metaphor: Sociology & critical HASS are kind of like the separation of powers, the adversarial justice system, or 'Blue sky' science. While applied research, industry commissioned social research etc is important... it must not be the only kind of sociology we support.
3/7 The reason govts often pay $$ for expensive private consultants to do their research is that govt can set the parameters & censor findings. University research is held to higher standards, academics sometimes tell industry and govt things they don't want to hear. [cont..]

I'm starting a thread here on #UsefulSocialSciences to show @MakeMayoMatter @JacquiLambie @Stirling_G why it is wrong to stop kids from poorer backgrounds studying in social science. Here are some of the 'useful' & employable things we research & teach. @TASA @MQ_Sociology
Housing affordability: understanding housing markets and how we design better housing policy so young people and the less well off can afford a home. #UsefulSocialSciences

Work & economy: What is happening with modern labour markets - what are the social impacts of insecure work
Domestic violence: why is it increasing and what can we do about it.

Social policy: how do we know if government social policies work or fail? How do we evaluate them?

Understanding patterns and how to tackle poverty and disadvantage.
