In 1837, Dr. James McCune Smith graduated from the @UofGlasgow making history as the first African American to earn a University medical degree. Today, I made history as the first Black graduate of the @UofGlasgow PhD of Immunology. Thank you to my village! #Blackwomenphds

One of the darkest days for women’s rights in my lifetime. Obviously the immediate consequences will be suffered by women in the US - but this will embolden anti-abortion & anti-women forces in other countries too. Solidarity doesn’t feel enough right now - but it is necessary.

A terrifying and meticulous breakdown of the inquiry into the Grenfell fire, which killed 72 people. The disregard for lives of people living in an unsafe building, the absence of accountability at any stage, and the corners cut throughout need to be read to be believed.

Already seeing people (including teachers!) sharing this as if it's just some interesting intellectual prompt. In reality it's the latest stage in a vicious and ongoing rehash of the anti-gay bigotry and moral panic of the 80s/90s.

Anyone who thinks an Independent Scotland will be a left wing paradise only needs to look at how reactionary many Indy supporters are to any industrial action where the SG is involved to know its a myth. Fight for Indy but never give up the fight for worker's rights.

The comparison between Alba’s failures and Green successes invites another conclusion: politics in Scotland tends to reward long term institution building whilst movements based on charismatic personalities have usually been failures.

Lots of angst on Twitter, and indeed everywhere, about cratering student attendace in HE. My take: if you instrumentalise education so that only the coursework/result matters, and then load students with costs so they have to work 20+ hours a week, what in hell do you expect?
