Off to Birmingham today to talk about #Queer(ing) #Ecologies, and #Reimagining our relationship with ecology and nature, for STEM, LGBTQ and You!
This is a culminated talk.
Culminated from the many interactions I've had in the last few months and years even with ecology through so many lenses, be this #decolonial #theory in #conservation and ecology, #critical ecology, queering theories and practices, techniques and behaviours of #divestment, #discussions on #regeneration and #movements
I'm not a fan of Rachel Shabi and disagree with her a lot, including with parts of this article. But she is circling an important recognition of the left ceding the ground of antisemitism to the right. To all our detriment.
"With the #farright in ascendancy across the world, #Jewish people turned to leftist movements that had long served as our political homes—and found them not only lacking the language to speak to what was happening but also often mired in ignorance over #antisemitism. As American communications specialist Sharon Goldtzvik told me: “We as #progressives should be leading on the issue of antisemitism, but it has become a critical vulnerability, rather than a critical strength.’” This Achilles heel has been seized upon by the #rightwing, derailing #progressive #movements and thwarting efforts at social, economic, and climate #justice across the world."

The #Fascist #Threat Becomes Clearer With #Argentina’s #JavierMilei’s #Call for a #Global #Alliance of #FarRight, #Nationalist, and #fascist #movements, called a '#BrownInternational.'
The proposed #alliance draws on #Nazi ideology linked to the color brown, referencing the #brownshirts of the #Nazi #Party’s #paramilitary wing in 1940s #Germany.

As #fascism spreads, #philanthropy urgently needs to #support #digital #justice.
We see #antirights #hate #movements creating an #environment in which simply #promoting #humanrights is perceived as #polarising, #extreme or #criminalised.

“#Cordonsanitaire" is a #term used by some #political #parties to #reject #cooperation with #movements viewed as too #extreme. "It’s time to make a clean break with this movement," she added.”
Hey #library / #archives / #oralHistory friends!
I'm teaching a new #class "Solidarity Memory Work"
We'll learn about #solidarity #movements in allied professions (academic history, journalism, etc.) then discuss (1) how to actively #document and #preserve current movements and organizations, and (2) activate that #records already in #collections to motivate and guide contemporary organizers

The #persecution of #trans #people by the #Nazis was #devastating – and it still echoes down the ages.
Before the rise of the #Nazis – #Weimar #Germany was an #epicentre for #LGBTQ+ #people, with #movements #supporting #transgender and #gendernonconforming #folks. That all changed when #AdolphHitler took power in January 1933.

The 'anti-gender' movement conflates and reframes various anti-rights movements, enforcing biological sex as 'natural' while labeling gender an 'ideology'.

#Introduction to the new followers! 
I teach at the University of Bologna. I edit the journal East European Politics as well as the Routledge Book Series in Extremism & Democracy.
I am interested in #extremism, #radicalism, #populism, and #democracy; #Euroscepticism; #parties and #elections; social #movements, political #participation, and #protest.
You can find a list of relevant publications and projects here: https://www.andreapirro.it
I didn't do an #introduction post when I joined scholar.social 2.5 years ago! I'm a sociologist in #California. I teach & research about #movements, #inequality, #politics, #trust, #anarchism, and others. Most of my work is #quantitative, but not all. I write journal articles & other stuff, too.
I have a Twitter account (https://twitter.com/dmwilliamsSOC), but would love if we all could migrate away from such corporate-run systems. Until then, I've been posting here things about stuff I read and write.
