Leaving a small child at home who has suddenly taken ill just as you are leaving for an overseas conference is so tough. It has taken a second late motherhood for me to be able to do this, be confident that she will be ok & I will be ok. Motherhood guilt is a patriarchal…

This is heart-breaking and so much of it would mirror mine and other academics’ experiences. It is true that academia breeds and rewards - and benefits from- patriarchy while in theory it is working to dismantle these same structures.

This is a structural problem from training to funding, from status bias to 'old boys network'. Even as Bafta committed to more inclusivity, we have seen only one woman director nominated this year. Over Oscar history only seven women have been nominated for director.
