Folks in the academy telling you to get out of echo chambers < creating a space irl free of gaslighting or teachable moments.

Y’all have exhausted me. I’ll be dammed (real shit) if I disengage from one of the few spaces my truths find space. I journal + talk to therapist/friends

And I tweet/read to stay grounded in a radical tradition. If I stayed accountable to only folks I work with I’d lose all types of critical thinking skills and make concessions NO ONE has business making. All in the name of “collegiality”

Hell nawl. That’s how folks end up protecting all those dusty ass department sexual and racial predators for years. + collegiality will literally kill me bc it’s not inclusive toward black fem folk. Not in white departments.

ECHO ECHO mfckas LOL.

Great thread gworl!

Thank you boo!
