‘Globalising Welsh Studies: Decolonising history, heritage, society and culture’, edited by Neil Evans and Charlotte Williams is available now and can be read for free via the link below! ⤵️

ALT ‘Setting out the global context of Welsh studies is an essential and important precursor to understanding Wales’s journey to become an inclusive and antiracist nation. This volume of essays sets out the journey in an instructive and insightful manner within a global framework. As a pioneering collection, it broadens the horizons of Welsh Studies by linking local histories with transnational dynamics, and by reshaping our perceptions of Wales through the lenses of race, nationality and ethnicity. It offers an innovative approach, bridging disciplines and pushing the boundaries of scholarship on Wales’s diverse heritage and its rightful place as a trailblazing nation on inclusion worldwide. Within series, the volume is an excellent introduction to the redefining of Welsh identity by exploring its diverse and multicultural heritage, amplifying the narrative about the concept of belonging. It is a must read for anyone who seeks to understand our journey to inclusion and integration here

UN Commission of Inquiry on the Occupied Palestinian Territory:
#Israel has perpetrated a concerted policy to destroy #Gaza’s healthcare system as part of a broader assault on Gaza, committing war crimes and the crime against humanity of extermination.

As we speak, write, tweet, sob: Israeli forces are committing another massacre in northern Gaza. People in Jabalyia are killed - both in groups, and one by one - amid unspeakable cruelty and sadism. By Israelis who have accepted to be "willing executioners" of a genocidal plan. With western-manifactured weapons and with western support.
It blows my mind to think that WE KNOW what Israel is doing and alltogether, we cannot stop it. Looking at where we were 100 years ago, no much progress has been achieved.

Israel's decision to send troops into Lebanon, a sovereign nation, is not a "limited ground operation".
It is an invasion.
Our government's hypocrisy is on full display. Its failure to defend international law and stand up to Israel is a moral disgrace.
