@MichaelDBrandt If you enjoy them, do them. If not, doesn't matter 🤷♂️Unless you're getting paid directly or indirectly through pull-ups, they're just something you enjoy doing in your leisure time. Seems like you might not enjoy them but need to find something to push yourself?
Impossibly sad - the heritage walking tour begun by Alison Morris, the community work to improve the town, the level of destruction, the lives lost. Heart broken, even though I know JA spirit never down
Black River Anglican Church...built in the 1700s...gone. I was christened in that church. My grandmother and I used to go to church every Sunday as a child. My mom still has a certificate my grandmother got from Sunday School in 1937. 😢😢😢.
I am now in St Elizabeth and images of destruction are all around.
The damage is great, but we are going to devote all our energy to mount a strong recovery.
From Balaclava in St Elizabeth to Devon and Coffee Grove in Manchester, Jamaicans are sharing what they’re seeing as Hurricane Melissa continues its slow northwest crawl.

'Environmental trauma' is a concept that emerged from the muddy flood of #Samothraki, while doing #fieldwork in a very difficult time for the island community (and myself), so I've been very protective of where & how this analysis would appear. (1/3)
We really hope that it can contribute to positive changes in the discipline, and to build on the wider momentum of recognising the impacts of living with, teaching and researching challenging topics
Delighted that our special issue of Teaching Anthropology on 'Trauma-informed anthropology' is now online here: https://t.co/tI63uAHgFI Can't give enough thanks to the Editors and contributors - it's been a real joy and I've learned so much
Contributions cover anthropological fieldwork, teaching, and supervising with insights from across the world including the US, Greece, Italy, South Africa, and Lebanon
@DavidYatesPhD Sending solidarity! This is close to home. If your vulnerability here is anything to go by, you're exactly who your students need and colleagues want to work with. Sending best vibes
I've got tickets for tonight - still a few left for Saturday! Really looking forward to it, as I've heard Viv talk about it and watched the trailer so seeing it in person will be ace - not to be missed!
Today for Black History Month, I am paying tribute to Liverpool-born Emma Clarke who was the first Black female professional football player.
She was also part of the first women’s team in the UK, the British Ladies founded in 1894.
Yesterday I was at a meeting and there were a few CSA survivor activists in the space. There was a tangible sense of demoralisation. An erosion of hope. Some have been fighting for systemic change for decades. Survivors are insulted, angry - and tired.
