What role do disasters play in global politics? In Vol. 53’s Special Issue, Amy Cortvriend, Lucy Easthope, Jenny Edkins, and @kandidapurnell.bsky.social explore how embodied trauma disrupts the status quo — and may open a path to a new social-political order. 👇 thetinyurls.com/redirect.php...

The last couple of days at #BorderCrim2025 have been wonderful. Saw old faces, met new people, heard about some exciting work. The theme of resistance recharged my activist battery a bit which has been in overuse for the last couple of years

Happy to see our latest work together published in Millenium. After disaster a return to the status quo isn't inevitable. It can be an opportunity to resist journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.1... Always a joy to work with @kandidapurnell.bsky.social @jennyedkins.bsky.social @lucygobag.bsky.social

Really saddened to see this. Volunteers work so hard to provide a place where people can remember the loved ones they lost to covid-19 💔

I made decision to withdraw from #eurocrim2025 this year after asking myself 'How would the brave women who shared their experiences with me feel about sharing their stories in this forum?' I'm in Athens for the next week and up for some of the below and chatting #resistance & #borders over coffee

ESC colleagues: petition & important vote at the General Assembly. If not boycotting, vote. Or a 3rd option: use presentation time to discuss complicity and promote attendance at the GE? I'm scheduled to present on asylum seekers & everyday resistance. It would be unethical if I didn't resist too

This is such a cool idea - this book is an incredible, powerful chronology of thoughts, reflections & poetry about an extraordinary time, fast receding into the public’s collective memories. @amycortvriend.bsky.social @lucygobag.bsky.social @jennyedkins.bsky.social @kandidapurnell.bsky.social
