Yesterday, I successfully defended my dissertation, “The Spectral Defect: Death, Diagnosis, and Determism Across the Atlantic World.” The kid is officially #PhinisheD

The best part: I got to do it with a whole bunch of people I love!

Another thought about learning with AI: A really underrated aspect of university education is all the background knowledge that gets brought in when you study a text with an expert who's spent years with it. What you get is so much more than decontextualized bits of information.

I don’t think y’all understand what it felt like hearing Mike Breen say “For the first time in 27 years, the Knicks are going to the NBA Finals.”

Dawg…decades of tears 😂😂

Three years. Three cities. One question that keeps getting more urgent: who owns Black data — and who gets to decide? WOBD III lands in New Orleans this May 20–22, hosted by the Amistad Research Center on its 60th anniversary. The public event is May 21. Free! All welcome!

There’s good research within the anthropology of science & even in critical neuroscience studies that has explored the politics of the discipline, its contribution to contemporary logics of administered & administrative reason, and what it cannot tell us about human subjectivity.

What if ethnography were not just written, but drawn?
This piece explores illustration as a form of “translation” in anthropology, and capturing what words often miss in lived experience.

A fresh take on research, creativity, and meaning-making.

Sylvia Wynter: “Language is the way that we will carry ourselves out of these problems we have —that is what is important now to remember about Black Studies during those early years, that it was one part of a bigger project of developing a transformation of knowledge…”

When you stop reading books, you start losing verbal dexterity, depth of thought and imagination.
A closed book is a closed mind.
Don't EVER stop reading.

[Corey J. Miles @CoreyMiles__]

no more funny than analyzing survey data from people you have never had any interaction with and passing it off as objective knowledge while you claim to be an expert on said group

Existe algo de muito bonito e muito doloroso na história de Ryland Grace e Rocky. Dois seres de mundos completamente diferentes, separados por milhões de anos de evolução distinta, por atmosferas incompatíveis, por corpos que nunca deveriam se reconhecer como semelhantes. E ainda assim eles se encontraram. No lugar mais solitário do universo, no momento em que cada um deles mais precisava não estar sozinho.

Rocky salvou Grace de maneiras práticas e concretas, com a engenharia impressionante que carregava nas suas múltiplas mãos. Mas também salvou de outras formas. Salvou ao estar presente. Ao fazer perguntas. Ao demonstrar curiosidade genuína sobre aquele ser estranho de ossos e água salgada que apareceu do nada na sua vida. Grace deixou de ser o único humano no universo quando Rocky começou a querer entendê-lo.

E Grace salvou Rocky também. Deu a ele a solução que o seu planeta inteiro precisava. Mas mais do que isso deu companhia. Deu alguém que admirava a sua inteligência, que se espantava com as suas criações, que ria com ele dentro das limitações estranhas de dois sistemas de comunicação que nunca foram feitos um para o outro.

Isso é o que Project Hail Mary guarda de mais precioso. Não a ciência, não a aventura, mas a lembrança gentil de que a coisa mais improvável do cosmos aconteceu, e foi o amor entre dois amigos.
