@molochofficial In Brontë’s Shirley, the heroine makes a big speech defending the importance of emotions, and the mean neighbor responds by accusing her of acting like a novel heroine (deragotory) and noting that it’s such a shame her crush isn’t there to listen/fall in love with her
on an airplane I have fully charged headphones & am listening to emotional songs & looking whimsically out of a window whilst thinking about all of the ways a heart can break in one lifetime I am sorry I simply do not hear the crying baby but I do agree there is much to cry about
Reading over abstracts as I send a reminder to panelists that MLA papers should be SHORT (this goes for all of you, too), and I'm so excited for this panel.
Sunday at 8:30am, but completely worth it. Join us!

It may seem contradictory that a state known for coercively sterilizing Black women & girls (“Mississippi appendectomy”) to prevent them from giving birth would force a 13-year-old Black girl who was raped to birth the baby. Both are reproductive slavery. https://t.co/Qe44G6ZfD7
