I research on #race and #humanrights in the Interamerican Human Rights System.

I’m also interested in philosophical and critical approaches to human rights, political theory, and democratic theory

I’m happy to announce that I’ll be joining the #BGTS #SCRIPTS Cluster of Excellence at the FU Berlin as a Visiting Doctoral Researcher.

During my stay there for the Winter Semester 23/24, I’ll be conducting my research on human rights, racism, and international institutions.

If you are currently based in Berlin or happen to be there, let me know!

For #politicalscience folks: what book/article on political science and #race would you recommend?

#International | Qatar: la coupe est déjà pleine

La #CoupeDuMonde s’ouvre au #Qatar ce dimanche 20 novembre. Tous ceux qui, au prix de multiples arrangements, ont accepté de la lui confier, portent une immense responsabilité: des milliers d’ouvriers morts sur la conscience, un désastre écologique, un scandale politique.

So, I'm asking, as embarrassing as it is that I don't have enough diversity in my network to do it on my own:

Can you amplify this to help us find #francophone, #Black, #indigenous, and #Asian #Canadian people, able and willing to do the hard work of helping a group remember to take diverse needs into account at the offset, so we can make a good #SocialSpace for everyone from the get go?

If that sounds like you, bless you, could you let me know so we can get a conversation started?

Thanks.

This piece on Wired about Black Twitter is worth your time. It's something I've been thinking about a lot, about how uneven a migration to a new space ends up being.

It also is one thing I'm eyeing about Mastodon. There's a danger that servers become silos if we aren't intentional. If you listen to some of the Black scholars in my field, they are saying as much. Twitter makes their work visible across groups.

So how do we federate for inclusion? It will be a challenge.

There Is No Replacement for Black Twitter

A series of missteps by Elon Musk has called the fate of the platform’s cultural engine into question.

I have an open access article just published titled, "Black/African Science Fiction and the Quest for Racial Justice through Legal Knowledge: How Can We Unsettle Euro-modern Time and Temporality in Our Teaching."

In it I argue that the relationship between law, time, temporality, race and racism is vital to understanding the continuous reproduction of racial injustice and the making permanent of colonial logics. This entanglement is exemplified in the extension, recreation and adaptation of those colonial logics of the human and space-time beyond the time of both racialised enslavement and exploitative colonisation. This paper further argues that the absence of a detailed and central examination of these junctures within legal knowledge –especially in teaching but also in research –can be addressed by recourse to science fiction. A specific area of science fiction, collectively termed here Black/African Science Fiction, has made inroads into unsettling Euro-modern law’s chronopolitics. Using Octavia Butler’s Kindredas an example, this paper argues that Black/African Science Fiction can help us to reframe legal knowledge to disrupt the inevitability of our current version of the future and the question of inevitability itself.

I have started a pop-up newsletter about #Mastodon. It’s called #HowToMastodon. I will publish in the mornings usually, but give the first issue a look over this way: https://midrange.tedium.co/issues/mastodon-onboarding-tips/
Mastodon Onboarding: Why Is It So Difficult? (And Other Mastodon Tips)

There’s a heckuva lot of confusion about the suddenly popular Mastodon—particularly regarding server onboarding. Maybe we can help.

Hello everyone,
Since the atmosphere is end times on Twitter today, I have created an account here just in case.
I write about British history and politics, international affairs, UK-German relations, Brexit and Ukraine, and things I enjoy such as art and literature.
