Today the Guardian’s flagship podcast Today in Focus is on Sudan, with myself and the great @helenpidd podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/tod…
Excellent podcast on what is happening in Sudan a huge thanks to Nesrine Malik of the Guardian for the huge efforts to raise awareness about Sudan’s plight @NesrineMalik Please follow her and share this podcast theguardian.com/news/audio/202…
A moving series of letters in today’s paper on Sudan. theguardian.com/world/2024/apr…
‘Austerity takes apart the very fabric of national identity, removes the spaces in which it can be forged, and eliminates people’s dignity. ‘ theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
It is people like Mukhtar and the ERRs, the civic activists, the volunteers who give us hope. Never the politicians and never the brass #Sudan’s Hotel Rwanda: the man who saved scores of people during Darfur violence theguardian.com/global-develop…
Very pleased and honoured to be on the European Press Prize shortlist for coverage of Sudan.

In 2019, Glodi Wabuela became the first ‘county lines’ drug dealer to be tried & convicted for human trafficking. It was a shock to realise I’d gone to primary school with him. I’ve spent the last year putting together his story for @gdnlongread theguardian.com/law/ng-interac…
Lammy really thinks he’s done something here by coining ‘progressive realism’ when it’s in fact a contradiction in terms - sums up the party’s entire irreconcilable pitch of stigmatising idealism while still promising to achieve political ideals. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
Sudan's war has metastasised into a nationwide conflagration so vast and anarchic its tremors may be felt through the Horn, the Red Sea and the Sahel. My piece with @ZeinabMSalih, bravely reporting still from inside Sudan, to mark one-year anniversary: economist.com/middle-east-an…
For a full year, the bodies have piled up in Sudan – and still the world looks away | Nesrine Malik | The Guardian theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
On 1st anniversary of the #Sudan conflict, do read @NesrineMalik. Her view that the conflict is led by a “new configuration of political and economic entrepreneurs” suggests the need for further, enhanced financial tools of pressure above & beyond today’s action #KeepEyesOnSudan

Of all the deadly anniversaries Sudan's military complex has given us, this one is by far the worst. One full year of armed violence and devastation - no lulls, no ceasefires, no guarantees of safety or immunity for any volunteers or aid workers. And it continues.
Alongside all the mourning there is comfort in how the Sudanese people have pooled their few resources and opened up their homes - a reminder that a country is not a place, but a spirit. My column on one year of Sudan's war. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
My first column is about the Silicon Valley geniuses who argue endlessly over abstract ideas of AI as redemption or annihilation, while in the real world the IDF uses it to facilitate mass killing in Gaza irishtimes.com/opinion/2024/0…

It's hard to understand why an economics professor showing concern for a student would be thrown to the ground and arrested. This is not an obvious way to defuse a crisis.
It is worth watching this CNN video from the moment Emory Econ Professor @CarolineFohlin came across the violent arrest of a protester on campus and asked the police, with shock, "What are you doing?" That's all that prompted an officer to hurl her to the ground and handcuff her.
I’m inside the Columbia campus now, and the pro-Israel crowd is yelling through the gates at students. “Stop wasting mommy and daddy’s money!” “You want to camp? Go camp in Gaza!” “Go back to Gaza!”
More hopeful than it seems. One-sentence summary: the Western coalition centred on the USA can no longer impose a world order on its own nor figure out a way to share the task with Resterners.
My new cover essay for @NewStatesman
“Can you call the philosophy department and tell them I’ve been arrested?” is an all-time quote.
WATCH: Among those arrested today were Noelle McAfee, Chair of the Philosophy Department at Emory University. I’ve asked for a comment from Emory on this arrest, no word yet. This video provided to us by an #Emory PHD student. You can hear him in this video. @ATLNewsFirst
my colleague Noelle McAfee, political theorist, feminist, and chair of the philosophy department is getting arrested by the Atlanta police for peacefully protesting. shame on @EmoryUniversity

Norm Finkelstein addresses Columbia students. Doesn't give a barn-burning speech. Instead, soberly lectures on the need for messages to resonate, now is the time to persuade 80% of Americans, and criticizes activists for extremist ambiguous slogans. youtube.com/watch?v=3qnU6c…
Just had explosive interaction w/ @Columbia’s heightened security coming onto campus. They followed me to my office & then lied, saying I didn’t scan my ID for entry (I did) & I pushed an officer (I didn’t). An ugly scene followed. They did this to me, a tenured, full professor.
Pride in @Columbia journalism, criticism of the university administration and a defense of speech rights here. My new post open.substack.com/pub/margaretsu…
the actual encampment at Columbia—i'm here after teaching my final class of the semester—is downright tranquil, impossibly sweet. there is a "nut zone" for the safety of kids with allergies.
