I have to pick a topic to make a 10 minute video presentation on, and then write an essay about for my "Contemporary and Emerging Issues in Crime and Justice" subject.

I can choose anything that is a "contemporary or emerging issue" that I want to research, however it can't be anything that our modules already cover..

Our modules are:

- Hate Crime
- Modern Slavery and Human Trafficking
- Wildlife, Animal, and Forestry Crime
- Trafficking in Cultural Property
- Identity Crime
- Technology, Digitals, and Crime Prevention
- Institutional Abuse
- Trauma, Personality Functioning, and Offending Behaviour
- Aging Offenders
- Work with Offending Behaviour
- The Professions in Criminal Justice and Wellbeing

I want to write about the NSW anti-Semitism laws, and how they're actually being used to cow criticism of Israel's genocidal actions against Palestine, but I feel like the marker is going to think that comes too close to the "hate crime" module.

I was thinking of writing about either the under-16 social media ban or about Ring door camera surveillance stuff (but both could be covered by the tech/digitals module).

The only other thing I can think of is the whole ligature points in prisons issue.

Suggestions welcome!

Ich recherchiere gerade zum Umgang der Universitäten mit dem Fediverse. Wird es gut / schlecht genutzt? Wo ginge mehr? Wo ignoriert man es völlig?

Mögt ihr mir eure Sicht auf eure Hochschule schildern? Habt ihr privat Dinge erlebt?

2/3🧵: a couple of hours later, an even larger #walkout was staged by the under/post grad #students of political & social science of #Edinburgh #university, leaving the #graduation ceremony hall mostly empty. The #uni now has a stark choice: the money from its financial entanglement with #Israel and companies that actively enable #genocide in #Gaza, or the money and the brains of its students. ✊🏽🇵🇸

1/3🧵: This is how #protest movements reach a #tippingpoint 🥲. #Edinburgh #university, a #uni that was named in the #UN Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese's report about #Gaza #genocide enablers, saw its PhD #students walk out en masse from their own #graduation ceremony on Friday. Hear those who think they are the majority shout "shut up" until they come to realise the majority is loudly, clearly and beautifully supporting #Palestine and #divestment.
