@jana_bacevic @striphas @Openreflections Happy to help. :) Two quick followups:
1. The quote in question comes from page 11 of that essay.
2. I mistyped it slightly. It should be, "the most rigorous" rather than "the more rigorous".

@striphas @Openreflections @jana_bacevic "[...] Such a vocation is, above all, in my view, one of the principal functions of a university, though university scholars are not always happy to be reminded of it.”

@striphas @Openreflections @jana_bacevic “In insisting that academics sometimes attend to the practical life, where everyday social change exists out there, cultural studies tries in its small way to insist on what I call the vocation of the intellectual life. [...]"

@striphas @Openreflections @jana_bacevic "[...] That is to say, cultural studies insists on the necessity to address the central, urgent, and disturbing questions of a society and a culture in the more rigorous intellectual way we have available. [...]"

So far this year, Breitbart has collaborated with white supremacists on articles, had one of their writers defend pedophilia and flown two of their correspondents to Alabama to dig up dirt on molestation victims.

@amazon is still cool with advertising there, though. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

@BadiaAhad @drdavidjleonard @StylusPub It really was phenomenal. Thanks all around!
