🇺🇾Eduardo Galeano y el fútbol

Un 13 de abril de hace 9 años fallecía el escritor y periodista uruguayo Eduardo Galeano, fanático del fútbol que nos dejó grandes relatos y frases gloriosas sobre este hermoso juego.👇

I can never curb my innate jealousy for a group of absolute fucking heroes heading off on holiday or a sporting event, and getting totally shitfaced at a ridiculously early hour and carrying on the rest of the day.

I look at them in awe and envy and wonder where my life’s gone.

Ladies and gentlemen, it’s dissertation day…

A massive thank you to my wonderful contributors for participating in my documentary (Mkennedy, Si Ferry, Moira Gordon, Amy Canavan and Hugh MacDonald)

🤔 La cuenta de twitter @goldecorazon armó este cuadro sobre el espectro socio político del fútbol ubicando a los clubes en un cuadro de doble entrada según izquierda-derecha y elite-proletariado.

¿Están de acuerdo cómo los ubicó?

Nos leemos 👇

Britain is a low wage, low investment, low productivity economy by advanced economy standards. The fact it has some islands of innovation doesn't change that.

Beneath the anti intellectual trends that exercise a growing influence in British society there lies a patronising hostile insistence ‘ordinary’ people are incapable of grasping complex ideas, watching challenging films or reading high brow books. It’s nonsense.

Girlsplaining 'serves as a push for positive change for all of us in the coffee sector... we all benefit from challenging the dominant gender dynamics that have led to limited expression, lack of emotional safety, and fierce competition in society.'

An article I wrote on Ecuador

Something I wrote on Puebla. A budding specialty coffee origin and culture.

Ever go out into the countryside and pine for a light roast v60 instead of the ubiquitous intestine destroying dark roast blends? I feel your pain.

Something I wrote on the specialty coffee culture in Atlixco, Puebla.

You can read an account of how these intellectual, cultural and political trends have read to a major reassessment of Scotland’s relationship to imperialism - ‘from colonised to coloniser’ in this paper I co-authored with Glasgow Sugar Aristocracy. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11…

Jordan Buchanan Excellent piece of work by @JordonBuch_anan, showing the ways coffee consumption in producer countries is changing--and the role of baristas and coffeeshops in making this happen

In case you missed it:

I wrote an article about the politicization of the sanctuary movement of the 1980s in and out of Chicago.

Here's the piece, but if you don't have access, DM me and I'll share it with you.
