Ci hai lasciato con delle parole straordinarie come te. Nei commenti posto una traduzione in inglese perché vorrei davvero che il tuo messaggio viaggi lontano, e che anche chi non ti ha conosciuto possa capire un po’ di cosa stiamo parlando. Grazie zia... www.ilcentro.it/pescara/il-m...

Both as previous recipient of the Ivor Guest Research Grant and now as co-chair of the Society for Dance Research, I can’t urge you more to come to this event! It will be online and it’s free although we’re inviting donations to continue offering the grants in the future ;)

Delighted to share news of a free in-person workshop I've co-organised in May at the ILCS (@ilcs.bsky.social) to discuss the need for explicitly antifascist pedagogies against the rising tide of far-right support and what that practice would look like. Info here: ilcs.sas.ac.uk/events/devel...

So happy that the Kurdish poet we campaigned for at PEN Norway during the past 5 years is finally free!! Ilhan Sami Çomak was arrested and tortured as a student 30 years ago - at last he is united with freedom! Great work by everyone! Here is his poetry: smokestack-books.co.uk/book.php?boo...
