Quick vox pop: if someone approached you now about the possibility of writing a chapter for a collection, how much time would you think it was reasonable of them to offer? Hugely conscious how many demands people have on their time at present, and for the foreseeable future.

I adore these responses. Recently, I've been given 3 months and 2 months.

i know many
#ShakeRace people who have been given 2-3 month timelines. People are performing well under pressure/urgency, but I always wonder when Vol is out whether folks realize some folks had from beginning of project & others had so little time . . .1 vastaus 0 uudelleentwiittausta 9 tykkäystä -
2-3 months does not seem to be enough time (unless very short pieces). I'm sorry this is happening, and in some cases I guess it reflects problems--in the case of gaps and exclusions--in the original plans for the volume (obviously could also be bc someone had to pull out!)

I think more often than not it reflects certain gaps, which shows how marginalized thinking through race is in our field. It also puts an incredible amount of pressure on that scholar to produce excellent work lest the field continue to be marginalized.

What an impossible position to be in! This is a really important point about the kinds of labour and representation people are asking for -- without recognising the extent of what they are asking. Solidarity with your high speed writing!

I’ve had to turn one them down because the time frame was impossible given my already crowded schedule. The other was because someone had to withdraw and the topic of the collection was race, so I know it was not an afterthought.
