Speaking to tens of thousands of people at the Uno Maggio festival in Taranto (Italy), UN Special Rapporteur @FranceskAlbs calls BDS "the emblem of a nonviolent movement," led by the Palestinian people, who "refuse to be reduced to victims" — and invites people around the world to join us in ending complicity with Israel's occupation, apartheid and genocide.
"While having a dream is essential, it is necessary, today more than ever, to have a plan, to organize."
Back in 2023, I published a book in Serbian titled 'Beda ljudskih prava'. Three years later, its revised and, hopefully, improved English version, 'The Obsolescence of Human Rights' (CEU Press), is now available for pre-order:

UN special rapporteur Francesca Albenese @FranceskAlbs speaks to pro-Israeli🇮🇱 protesters following a public event in cologne.
What a strong woman. Heard that they insulted her many times before and after, but she stayed calm and respectful.
Respect her for staying so composed and reasonable, even when others were completely out of touch with reality.

Srbija izvozi municiju u Izrael a uvozi vojnu opremu. Time podržava zemlju koja krši međunarodno pravo. Događaji u Gazi jesu genocid nad Palestincima. Dobro je što Srbija nije u Odboru za mir jer je to telo pokušaj marginalizacije UN, Frančeska Albaneze

Vidimo se!
Čini se kao da je pravo vreme za poslušati moje divne koleginice i kolege koji su istraživali studentski pokret.

Tegeltija je najveći punk na svetu. U situaciji u kojoj bi mnogi jurili sponzore i monetizacije, njegov Lo-fi talačka kriza VHS video, snimljen na jednom audio kanalu, je zakucao YouTube brojač i srušio Internet.
such an enjoyable discussion with wonderful colleagues
