Study confirms tear gas has adverse effects on reproductive health
Now this is public health in action - from people’s experiences to proper journalism to collaborative research. Tear gas is policing with poison.

Calling all UK Academics! 🎺 Do you know any PhD students working on social movements and innovation? We have just received seed funding for some work on this and we're looking for a (paid) collaborator who wants to develop their research profile in this area.

It wouldn't be a protest camp without tents, would it? These are part of what @fabnomad, @drfigtree & I call re-creation infrastructures which help reproduce everyday life and allow the camp to continue

Urban protest camps can feed off city infrastructure (gas & food) and also supplements it. Scattered downtown are tables full of supplies, socks, granola bars, shovels and stacks of TP. There also appear to be people with sleds pulling supplies around.

So this is my new favourite project - fab intro to this grassroots initiative @comicartfest ⬇️
Really excited to see the US edition of Draw the Line becoming a reality. It's had a new design, a robust edit and some additional actions/comics for its Stateside audience. But one important detail remains the same: all proceeds will go to @chooselove, the refugee charity.

Hey protest camps tweeps- please check out this thread from @lestageog & Let @UniLeicBusiness @LeicesterUnion @leicesterucu know that research should not be contained or counted against the business strategy of the few (post by @drfigtree)
Our book @protestcamps is being used to help justify my co-author’s @fabnomad redundancy. I didn’t realise that management and organisation studies only count when upholding the status quo @UniLeicBusiness? @UCUBU @timeshighered @ConversationUK #AcademicTwitter #AcademicChatter

I’ve decided this one will be the end of the tear gas touring for a while - a beautiful invitation to speak in the archive where it all began...
