Myself @tionneparris and @MwedziGabriella wrote about this as 3 PhDs in a piece titled "The Future of Black Scholarship in Britain: Tensions Between the ‘Researcher’ and the ‘Researched’" which we're looking to get published bc we were messed around by a journal !!

Funding bodies have a responsibility in this as well. At this point white led research on communities of colour is an act of institutional racism.There is abundant talent, and plenty of opportunities for allyship to step back and foreground a colleague who gets routinely ignored.

This is a thread about #grief . Today, while walking home I was thinking "I feel very happy. I'm content. I want to call my mum"

Totally humbled today to learn more blackness in an indigenous context while at the #DigInt22 and to learn from Madi Day. Thankful + glad to be in a rare academic space with folks who have personal skin in the game. & my presentation was well received 🥺🙏🏾 @IndigStudiesMQ

I spend WAY too much time thinking/working on Big Tech's harms to Black people. It's beginning to take it's toll. So, as a baby academic/ECR, I've decided while platform gov & experience is my focus, I gotta start researching/writing about Black joy online. #AcademicChatter

@aoifemrtn @drhannahrobbins we knew. and fair play to the journo for at least pushing back. it’s always such a red herring when issues are framed as concern for young ppl by bigoted folk

👋🏾 I want to join/participate in a #community that is intersectional+inclusive @ intersection of academia/tech policy/social justice. There are a few that purport this in BER/LDN...but then are communities of majority white women 🤔 Know any? #request

i'm incredibly proud of myself 😭. i completed this degree in the midst of trauma and isolation, holding down a senior role @ work. doing 65 hour weeks, in the middle of pandemic year 2. it's an absolute achievement — one of my best — and i just wish i could call my mum.
