Folks have asked me how you can help. Many colleagues have told me that they haven't heard from any of their residents who support a ceasefire and an end to war crimes being committed. Let your voices be heard to help save as many lives as possible.
🚨🚨🚨 THIS IS GENOCIDE Over 2 million Palestinian people living trapped in Gaza are living through genocide in real time, as Israel horrifically bombs, starves, and displaces them. SOUND THE ALARM. Raise your voice with this toolkit. TAKE ACTION ➡️ bit.ly/StopGazaGenocide

Shocking & terrible. Sam was my classmate in high school. Her kindness, generosity, & hope were infectious. Truly a loss to all of our communities. May her memory be a blessing.
I am shocked, saddened and horrified to learn of Sam’s brutal murder. Sam was as kind a person as I’ve ever known. She was driven by her sincere love of her community, state and country. Sam truly used her faith and activism to create a better place for everyone.

Our research on culturally adapted depression therapy for Muslim communities in Bradford has been shortlisted for an award 😃! The RCT showed significantly better outcomes for the adapted therapy compared to both standard CBT in IAPT and usual support in the voluntary sector.
We're super excited to find out who the winners are for the ‘Research Initiative of the Year’ category at tonight's #CelebrateAsOne @ActAsOneBDC Awards 2023! Read more about the fantastic projects shortlisted in our latest article: cityofresearch.org/research-…

Universities and unions have a critical role to play in ending Israeli apartheid. We stand in solidarity with our siblings in Palestine and refuse to stay silent about genocide!

Social Psychologist Steven O. Roberts, in his preprint, delivers a once in a decade-level argument advocating the inclusion of underrepresented and marginalized voices in academia. And does it with an impressive level of class and scientific rigor.
