On 4th Oct, I'm doing a talk about Jane Austen and chattel enslavement at Northampton Central Library. It's free. Please come along if able. Tell a friend, colleague. This is part of my ongoing research into racism and popular culture #JaneAusten

I'm doing a free talk on 4th Oct for UK Northampton Central Library on Jane Austen the British Empire. If we don't support libraries, we'll lose them. Will also discuss things like heritage sector and whiteness. Questions? DM me. Register here: tinyurl.com/mrxj7rz7

Because the humanities have a literary quality. Every sentence has been carefully crafted and ad-libbing just won't do. The precise wording is as much a fundamental part of the paper as the findings. It's not the same in the sciences and social sciences.

Why do academics in the humanities read their papers aloud, word for word, when they give talks at universities or at meetings, while scientists generally speak extemporaneously? If you read, you might as well just hand out the paper. It's a mystery.

“being a writer” is 10% writing and 90% reading, socialising, walking around, getting ideas and organising the external and internal environments that make writing possible

Here's a non-paywalled link to the Neil Gaiman article. It's an important read, but definitley not a light one - an unfathomably harrowing account of sexual abuse. In a just world, neither Gaiman nor Amanda Palmer would know another day's peace.

“White men dominated, & white women ‘civilized.’”
This colonial dynamic mirrors DEI today. White men still hold power, while white women “soften” the work making it palatable never effective. When white women enter DEI spaces as leaders, it’s like 👇🏾

In 2020, I stood on Meta’s stage to address ‘Diversity Without Inclusion.’ Fast forward to 2025: Meta dismantles its DEI efforts. Shocking? Not to me. I saw this coming. Here’s why. 🧵

Had a horrible experience on way to a gig tonight; complete opposite to the usual experience I’ve had in Yorkshire and North of England previously. I got the train from Leeds, almost all the seats taken (so far so normal)…

I’m at a conference today. The organisers just told me that I can’t bring my daughter to the networking session or the dinner tonight. I couldn’t get a babysitter. This is one of those times, as a single parent, that you really miss out. It felt like a gut punch.

Everyone, at some point, will either need, receive, or provide care. Whether childcare, aging care, or disability care, CARE affects everyone — & the fact that care is seen as an individual issue & not an economic necessity is wild. ( care workers are underpaid and overworked.)
