Trying to write intentionally, excluding harmful language that stems from foundational scholars, is difficult but necessary. I hope when I eventually publish some work, I will do this successfully.
Been dealing with major imposter syndrome since starting my PhD program last year (quarantine/isolation played a huge role in that). Feeling energized this semester by a few things-reading @priscadorcas new book, connecting w/ some pretty cool classmates, & critical syllabuses :)
