The global tax system is rigged – but we can fix it.

when i was a student i finagled a brief conversation with Fernand Braudel to share my dream of becoming a historian, though i couldn't read the sources

He told me "The sources are like sheet of music. The important thing isn’t can you read music, it’s can you hear it. Can you hear the music, paul?"

Someone arrested at a recent Kurdish solidarity protest has been given bail conditions not to "associate with Kurdish people".

He's Kurdish.

The Metropolitan Police remains a racist endeavour.
