We are learning to talk to others who are the same; we need to break out of this; we should not just be another brick in the wall; we are better than bricks #CDPCon18

@littlegaudy reiterates primacy of emotion and the need to maintain agency as a PhD student

[Dr Rhian Addison McCreanor @RhianLAddison]

@littlegaudy rocking the keynote opening eyes of @CDPConference18 students - we are working for universities and institutions which are inherently racist. We need to open our eyes to these structures and take it to pieces. What will our futures look like without these structures?

[@CDPConference18 @CDPConference18]

"then power lies with every single one of you to change the narrative" #CDPCon18

[@CDPConference18 @CDPConference18]

"We changed the name but we kept the money"

[@CDPConference18 @CDPConference18]

Subhadra talks about the process of removing eugenics from UCL structures and syllabuses, but strongly challenges the politics of it.

[@CDPConference18 @CDPConference18]

These histories are not, should not be, contested - perhaps uncomfortable, not the default narrative, but not contested #CDPCon18

[@CDPConference18 @CDPConference18]

@littlegaudy: "the university is racism, the museum is racism; its no coincidence that I'm speaking to you today given the positions you all occupy" #CDPCon18
