"Journalists and citizens must keep asking elected representatives why – alongside enabling killing of thousands of non-combatants – they are actively enabling the damage to the cultural heritage of all humankind". My piece today in @ScotNational thenational.scot/politics/24…

It is apocalyptic
The situation unfolding in northern #Gaza is apocalyptic.
I join the @iascch leaders in urging, yet again, all parties fighting in Gaza to protect civilians, and call on #Israel to cease its assault on Gaza and on the humanitarians trying to help — there is no alternative to @UNRWA.
Our full statement:

To know only of death
And to love
To know that there are no shrouds left
And to love
To keep watch with the dying
To abide with the suffering
To find the words even when
the only word
that does not fail
Is love.

To be horrified daily
To not become immune
To have empathy
To find words where we are silenced
To find silence to mourn
To weep
To hold fast the reason
To hold fast
To hand fast reason through the flames

Replying to @ruth_wishart
I think most folk have no idea of how dangerous a moment in history we’re inhabiting Ruth. And I say that - as you and I know well - as children of the Cold War’s scariest moments. This is way more perilous a time.

Black History Month in @UofGUnescoRILA team is too often about team members being invited to “Look Back and Be Angry” rather than life affirming work. At last minute a rush of diary invites (often unpaid) to come along for a month to be a “dancing bear” (not my words)
Do better.
An honour to be there…
Lovely blog from @sagarzan who gifted us with her words of care at the Rise and Shine Festival at @ScottishCrannog last month ☀️

Powerful speech by @gehan_macleod, co-founder of the @GalGael Trust, to celebrate 30 years since the Pollok Free State motorway protest in Glasgow.
In so many ways, Gehan has inspired & sustained the GalGael since Colin’s passing in 2005 aged 39. See also youtu.be/ChcZchk0mok?si=2aIZ…

Or the Soloway Ukraine Choir and @Maryhill_IN Joyous Choir and games of marbles and Easter building and circles of care with @sagarzan

Or maybe just the miracles of strangers become friends and visitors become Crannog People through tea and song and cake and conversation, and time for reflection by a fireside
A beautiful, gloriously exhausting weekend

300 days
From U.K. statement anyone would think that the death toll was all in Israel and on 1 day last year.
This makes leaders look incompetent and frankly ridiculous.
There is a 76 year history and a siege on Gaza since 2007 by the illegal occupiers, the apartheid state

Bless those who do not vote for genocide
Who know trading arms is not the way
Who love children everyday to be raised in peace
and who know that the dignity of every human is inviolable
Bless those who vote for a world of justice and generosity and peace

Kudos to #Spain for joining #SouthAfrica's genocide case against Israel at the @CIJ_ICJ. I hope this marks the beginning of more Western countries taking similar actions. It’s not too late to stand on the right side of history.
Words of condemnation are meaningless without action. In fact, decades of mere words have allowed Israel to escalate its lawlessness towards the Palestinians into #genocide.
