This is my resting demon bitch face.
This week I'm announcing a wee hiatus as I regather my resources to finish up season four. I'm also talking about what it might look like for us to collectively reject civility and instead become a hoard of demon bitches for justice. Also here are some links:
For the millionth time I'm recommending the Sandy and Nora Talk Politics podcast, but also recommending that you keep on eye out for Alicia's Elliott's new podcast Why Tho?
The title of this episode comes from a line in Lindy West's book The Witches Are Coming
Here's some context on Jagmeet Singh being kicked out of the House of Commons for calling another MP racist
And just a few more links, to what I'm reading right now:
"Radical Care: Survival Strategies for Uncertain Times" by Hi'ilei Julia Kawehipuaakahaopulani Hobart and Tamara Kneese
"Racism is Everyday, Every Day" by Jarrett Hill
"Racism Is Terrible. Blackness Is Not." by Imani Perry

I'm back from a much-needed hiatus and ready to jump into the final half-dozen episodes of season four, starting with a doozy. I talked to Vivek Shraya and Cicely Belle Blain about Vivek's imprint VS Books, Cicely's new book Burning Sugar, and the importance of mentorship. Also, dinosaurs. Also, links:

Jessica Johns' chapbook is called How Not to Spill;
Here's a quick read on Langston Hughes reporting on the Spanish Civil War;
And here's Vivek's article on the selling of marginalized people's trauma.

In this, the final episode of Secret Feminist Agenda, I sat down with Eugenia Zuroski to talk about hope, planifestos, collectivity, mentorship, and where we know from. As far as final conversations go, this one felt absolutely perfect. Here are some links!
Learn more about Gena's work on her website, by following her on Twitter, and by checking out her Mixcloud!
The Grace Lavery comments I referenced were shared on Twitter and her book is called Quaint, Exquisite: Victorian Aesthetics and the Idea of Japan.
For more on hope and its appropriation by liberal discourses, you might want to revisit the episode on Hopepunk
We talked about reclaiming your time which prompts me to re-share this piece by Tressie McMillan Cottom on race and the politics of (wasting) time.
My reference to turning routines into rituals came from Kook Teflon (via Zena Sharman), from episode 62 of the Bespoken Bones Podcast.
For more on the exhausting embodied labour of diversity work, especially within universities, check out Sara Ahmed's On Being Included.
On the topic of collective models of organizing, Gena mentioned The Bigger 6 Collective and the V21 Collective. I was also reminded of the vital work of the Combahee River Collective.
This piece is a few years old but still pertinent: "The digital native is a myth"
The Netflix documentary I alluded to is The Social Dilemma.
The scholars Gena cited in relation to her exercise, 'Where Do You Know From?', include Eve Tuck, Minelle Mahtani, and Katherine McKittrick.
The John Locke theory Gena mentioned is tabula rasa; the application of the "blanket slate" idea into colonialism and theft of land is terra nullius.

What's that? Another bonus episode??? Kind of! On September 22 (I say October in the episode and I'm too lazy to go back and fix it, but it was September) I launched my new book, A Sentimental Education, at Iron Dog Books. The launch took the form of a conversation between me, Minelle Mahtani (Associate Professor at the Institute for Social Justice at UBC), and Lucia Lorenzi (artist and recovered academic). I loved it and am delighted to be able to share it with you, along with an exclusive sneak peak of the audiobook version of A Sentimental Education (which isn't quite available yet but will be soon and when it is you'll be able to find it at that link). Enjoy!

For no other reason than I felt like it, here's a bonus episode. This is an audio version of the essay "Burning Out" that I published in 2020, in the Hair issue of Room Magazine. Content warning for discussion of weight loss and disordered eating, suicide and death, and racism and settler colonialism.
