Calling all UK Academics! 🎺
Do you know any PhD students working on social movements and innovation? We have just received seed funding for some work on this and we're looking for a (paid) collaborator who wants to develop their research profile in this area.
I’ve got the best kind of mail 😍📚-We’ll done @DrCEschle & Alison Bartlett for curating this fantastic collection of chapters on #Feminism and #protestcamps
Excited that my article with @AngelBarbas_ on 15M’s educommunicative legacy for radical
democracy is finally out in @SocMovStudies - you can access free e-prints here: https://t.co/YHbXaPoPJ5 - IN SUM: media ecology + educommunication + social movement studies + radical democracy
It wouldn't be a protest camp without tents, would it? These are part of what @fabnomad, @drfigtree & I call re-creation infrastructures which help reproduce everyday life and allow the camp to continue
Urban protest camps can feed off city infrastructure (gas & food) and also supplements it. Scattered downtown are tables full of supplies, socks, granola bars, shovels and stacks of TP. There also appear to be people with sleds pulling supplies around.
Hey protest camps tweeps- please check out this thread from @lestageog & Let @UniLeicBusiness@LeicesterUnion@leicesterucu know that research should not be contained or counted against the business strategy of the few (post by @drfigtree)
