When I wrote this in 2019 some accused me of exaggerating the connection between the intellectual bigotry/racism of the Spectator and Telegraph (as exemplified by Scruton and Murray) and BNP/street-level thuggery. If anything I was too cautious..

Scruton is part of an intellectual culture giving respectability to racism
Howls of outrage over philosopher Sir Roger Scruton's loss of a government job ignore the reality of his output.

It also perfectly encapsulates my concept of refusal in my thesis. I had to adopt another research method because I refuse to extract marginalized voices into my work for the purpose of extraction into the colonizer's speak. Inspired by Audré Lorde and bell hooks (among others).

This piece is singing to me.

I find marking as a TA so painful because it forces students into conformity. I know your piece isn't about that, per se; but it resonates with me so much. Thank you for writing this.

This was such an affirming read. I would, though, go so far as to say that this, indeed, is a good place for research!

Wow! This is fantastic -- reads like a line right out of my (decolonial) methods which critiques acad history: "We write not to be discovered, but because we were never lost."
