Raewyn Connell is indeed a lovely and creative scholar. Interesting to read her view of her career intersecting with the personal.
Really lovely tribute to Raewyn Connell, her work, and her enduring legacy in The Sydney Morning Herald.

This article by Franklin Foer filled in a lot of gaps for me. The goal is the destruction of the professional managerial class—the people who conduct scientific research, run libraries and museums, predict the weather, and monitor food safety. It is the Chinese Cultural Revolution for America.
Trump is waging war against professionals, intellectuals, scientists, education, writes Franklin Foer. We've seen this movie before - in Mao's China www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...
Trump Has Found His Class Enemy
The president unleashes a Marxist theory of power—but against knowledge workers, not billionaires.

What I keep turning over at 3am: How do we design an education system that cultivates people to have the courage to stand up, and stand together, for something greater than themselves?
American civil society is full of abject cowards, that is the issue. The government is a mafia state but it is winning because most American elite institutions are devoid of anything resembling integrity and are folding rather than stand on principles that were little more than marketing.

At the 1992 RNC convention, some delegates held up signs that said “Thank God for AIDS” and “Family Rights Forever/Gay Rights Never.” Not exactly as catchy as “Mass Deportations Now,” but just as dehumanizing.
