My first academic article is out in the world & what a labor of love from the editors, reviewers, &interlocutors. 💕
Hope this piece reaches who it needs to💕💕

The Making of the American Calorie and the Metabolic Metrics of Empire https://t.co/LSiPrGYJsZ via @eScholarship

[Dr. Athia N. Choudhury @Athia_Choudhury]

Probably the best interview I’ve seen so far—never once letting up on hasina’s autocratic rule, announcing international backing of students, doesn’t shy away from India’s support of hasina, and interinking to Israel’s war crimes in Gaza

Hii + a life update ✨ my time w/ @DukeAADS is coming to an end and I’m headed to Providence this Fall! I’ll be joining the faculty in American Studies + STS as the Mellon Postdoc in Disability Studies at Brown.

[Dr. Athia N. Choudhury @Athia_Choudhury]

this article on milk + militarism was the first thing I wrote for my diss & reading proofs as settler violence rages in Gaza and images of foreign aid trickle in, reminds me of how colonial benevolence bleeds into occupation thru mundane objects like milk. https://t.co/eA0nvgMPN0

Duke people—consider signing this letter and agitating in any and all forms for a ceasefire now. Be a thorn to settler colonialism.

[Eli Meyerhoff 🍉 @EliMeye]

Duke University Faculty for Justice published a statement on #Palestine today.

Consider signing if you have any relation to Duke (faculty, students, alumni, or staff like me).

“It is imperative to reject injustices committed in our name.”

[Dr. Athia N. Choudhury @Athia_Choudhury]

I have been a student of empire for most of my life &we have seen this story many times, in its many forms. Signing this letter—even as contingent faculty—was an easy choice in the midst of genocide. Palestine will be free. All power to all people, from the river to the sea.
