Academia, particularly the most competitive parts of academia, are built on the assumption that "serious" academics have no family obligations or will be willing and able to sacrifice them for the good of their work. That assumption is bad for academics and bad for academia, too.

Abandoning or demolishing existing infrastructure to build shiny new things is an unaddressed type of infrastructure inequity. This issue exists well beyond the Science Centre/Ontario Place debacle. Hereā€™s a short šŸ§µof common examples of this type of infrastructure inequity:

Thatā€™s why I put a photo of my grandmother on the cover of Beast Meridian, and throughout the book. Fuck poetry rules and gatekeepers and tastemakers and self-deputized authorities.

Here is our story. Please read & share. Migration management is a major policy challenge, but violating the law, brutalizing people & radicalizing your authorities & your voters cannot be the answer. It's time for the EU to demand accountability. nytimes.com/2023/05/19/worā€¦ /ENDS
