This keynote wouldn't have been possible without the generosity of a very special group of editors I'm lucky to call friends.

[Amber Riaz, PhD @AmberRiaz14]

@ryusufedit It went well! I broke a few unwritten rules and no one walked out of the speech, so I take it as a win!

Starting in 20 minutes... Opening keynote #Editors24

[Amber Riaz, PhD @AmberRiaz14]

I will be at #editors24 on June 22...on the conference schedule twice no less! First for the opening keynote then for a session on style sheets. I'll see you there!

Our strategy should be not only to confront empire, but to lay siege to it. To deprive it of oxygen. To shame it. To mock it. With our art, our music, our literature, our stubbornness, our joy, our brilliance, our sheer relentlessness and our ability to tell our own stories.

[Amber Riaz, PhD @AmberRiaz14]

So...yeah...I'm the opening keynote for Editors Canada...

[Editors Canada Conference (#Editors24) @EditorCon]

With advancements in AI, more people are saying editors are becoming obsolete. But is that really true?

Fantastic opportunity to get a book on decolonizing translation!

[Amber Riaz, PhD @AmberRiaz14]

@doctorpoco I agree. It was cute and just the right kind of understated.

[Amber Riaz, PhD @AmberRiaz14]

Ghost Citizens is essential reading for anyone interested in issues of borders and citizenship. Get the book!
