Impossibly sad - the heritage walking tour begun by Alison Morris, the community work to improve the town, the level of destruction, the lives lost. Heart broken, even though I know JA spirit never down

I am now in St Elizabeth and images of destruction are all around.
The damage is great, but we are going to devote all our energy to mount a strong recovery.

'Environmental trauma' is a concept that emerged from the muddy flood of #Samothraki, while doing #fieldwork in a very difficult time for the island community (and myself), so I've been very protective of where & how this analysis would appear. (1/3)
Delighted that our special issue of Teaching Anthropology on 'Trauma-informed anthropology' is now online here: tinyurl.com/47s6dtyd Can't give enough thanks to the Editors and contributors - it's been a real joy and I've learned so much

Today for Black History Month, I am paying tribute to Liverpool-born Emma Clarke who was the first Black female professional football player.
She was also part of the first women’s team in the UK, the British Ladies founded in 1894.

Yesterday I was at a meeting and there were a few CSA survivor activists in the space. There was a tangible sense of demoralisation. An erosion of hope. Some have been fighting for systemic change for decades. Survivors are insulted, angry - and tired.
#HuwEdwards #CSA
This sentence reflects the abhorrent lack of care for the safety of children in this country. The survivor community will be enraged and horrified, but most of us have come to expect this.
I’m a survivor of #CSA. The thought that I was taken to a prepared place for the sole purpose of producing images/video, nearly destroyed me. I have no idea what happened to this material - or how many have seen it.
The torture of these children is immortalised. When will #CSA be considered a serious crime?

Even now, there is nothing to stop the exact child sexual abuse imagery shared with Huw Edwards being spread via WhatsApp. The @IWFhotline calls on Meta to explain how they will shut this open door to abuse & prevent this happening again.

The @ReprovideUOB team are so proud of our fellow #Bristolians who are standing up against racism and abuse. Hatred and violence have no place on our streets or in our homes.
