Is anyone still here? I know that basically I'm not either but if you are: I'm teaching research methods and I'm wondering if people have recommendations on reflexivity statements/positionality statements written by non-POC?

ALT Illustration of a warm and inviting kitchen scene featuring three generations of a Black family. A young girl with braided hair and white beads is in the center, cutting out biscuits using a tin can. Her grandmother with gray hair rolls dough in the foreground next to her. In the background, her mother tastes the macaroni and cheese, standing near a stove with a pot of greens and a pound cake visible.

This is fine and also college rankings are racialized and anti-black processes that ignore historical and contemporary suppression and neglect of hbcus!

I love this thread, plan to read the OP article, & want to also add that the village is really a racialized, classed, & gendered phenom. The syst. undergirding R, C, G make villages both culturally salient, necessary, & inaccessible for reasons ment. here & others unnamed.

As someone who very much does want a village and indeed has it (I currently have 4 neighborhood kids under 6 at my house joining us for dinner. Part of a baby swapping system I started in 2021), after having pretty painstakingly built it over years, I want to make two points...

Checking in to ask about course scheduling for folks who teach 3 classes in one sem/day. How do you manage pacing? Do you do all back to back? 2, break for lunch and then the others? And how early do you start/late do you go? Pros and cons to various configurations.
