Give it till midday Friday before Creative Scotland reverse decision to defund Aye Write festival. For what you get culturally, and the level of experience organisers bring, plus the calibre of talent it attracts - no-brainer. One of the best book festivals to deal with hands down.

Still processing that Glasgow, Scotland's largest city, does not have a book festival now Aye Write has been cancelled. Wow.

Gutted at this news. Culture, reading, libraries are central to health, well-being & equality of opportunity. After 20 excellent years Scotland’s biggest city #Glasgow will be without its flagship book festivals Creative Scotland

And so another year of teaching at UofG Modern Languages & Cultures comes to an end - profoundly grateful for students (ug & pg) and colleagues who make this job so enjoyable, and for the fantastic range of experiences this year has brought. Lots of challenges, bien sûr, but it's a privilege and a joy.

***FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE*** Millions of Haitians are trapped in a fragile situation right now, caught in the crossfire of a paramilitary power struggle. haitisupportgroup.org/haiti-support-… #SolidarityNotCharity #WeStandWithHaiti #KanpeAkAyiti #Justice4Haiti #JistisPouAyiti

The situation in Haiti is deeply concerning. Our solidarity is needed now more than ever. The Haiti Support Group will also be holding their AGM at the upcoming #RasanblajFanm conference in July and it will be a great opportunity for those coming to join the conversation.

Last night the Haiti Support Group Haiti Support Group Executive Committee held an emergency meeting to discuss advocacy actions and next steps in solidarity with our friends, partners, grassroots organisations and human rights campaigners. More to come soon. #SolidarityNotCharity #Ayiti

What are you doing about the escalating crisis in Haiti David Rutley MP? Will you be visiting the country? What discussions is the UK holding with the DR and broader Caribbean states in this regard?

The Haitian Women’s Collective launches an emergency fund for Haitian women led organizations to immediately resource them. The following organizations will benefit PROFAMIL Haïti fleurdevie and NEGES MAWON gofund.me/3d81dcb7 PLEASE DONATE.

I’m still haunted today by this part of the AyiboPost 🇭🇹 article, where a young professional named Marthe describes the smell of burning flesh in her neighborhood. 2 other friends told me today they hear gunfire constantly & don’t know if gangs will come to their street next.
