Fascinating discussion yesterday at @cwccoalition with @JPZanders + Alastair Hay on #whitephosphorus and its ambiguous place in arms control architectures (something i know very little about) 1/6 #opcw #cwc
Although not explicitly covered by the #CWC #OPCW, and inadequately covered within the #CCW, the inhalation of its white smoke (phosphorous pentoxide) can cause asphyxiation and permanent harm to the respiratory tract through its toxic, irritant properties. 2/6
If #whitephosphorus smoke is used intentionally as an irritant, how does that relate to the #OPCW #CWC General Purpose Criterion? It is remarkably hard to ascertain 'intent' especially given that the 'exceptions' under #CCW Protocol III provide scope 'accidental' exposure 3/6

Class, Colonialism and Whiteness in Oxbridge and Beyond #CCW (11/11/19)

Anti-racism work is easier to talk about what it doesn't look like. We avoid the word racism and for a lot of white liberals "diversity, equality, acceptance and belonging" are more palatable terms.
The money and ideologies upon which these institutions are built on are so closely linked to colonialism, oppression, genocidal regimes, and economic policies of violence and exploitation.

Representation politics become tokenistic.

Racist oppression won't end by numbers - these issues are structural and institutional.

Universities are just as racist as the police force.

From even before we arrive at university, minority racial groups are already at a disadvantage.
