Stuart Hall, born on this day in 1932, is widely regarded as the founding father of cultural studies. He was a fierce advocate of a Marxism “without guarantees” and one of the first to identify and critically interrogate the rise of neoliberal capitalism.

Hear that noise? Glass ceiling of Irish academia cracked a bit. I was promoted to Full Prof, which makes me the first woman of color to become a Full Prof in Ireland. Relieved. Grateful for my colleagues and students. Thumb in the eye to the racists and sexists. #AcademicTwitter

Truth: "The commitment to engaging present concerns is not simply a method or approach to the scholar’s craft of research and writing. It is a matter of life and death. The reality of the present moment propels many of us to act." Thank you @KeishaBlain tinyurl.com/37rpad5w

New from me: the rising tide of threats and harassment aimed at politicians and some civil servants is hitting Toronto officials. Some are receiving death threats, white powder in the mail, racist taunts and more. thestar.com/news/gta/2022/09…
