What happens if you are a minority scholar whose work doesn’t center questions of race and identity? Is all academic programming obligated to center such questions? I seriously disagree with the idea that litigating conference programming via tweet builds a more just academy. https://twitter.com/DrDadabhoy/status/1304978016640970752 …

No one is doing that. So please don’t twist what happened. Minoritized scholars are under no obligation to work in race, a point I’ve made several places and this conference is about enslavement, so it is about race.

I’m not twisting what’s happening at all. You’ve litigated a conference program via tweet, based on highly arbitrary categories of diversity & inclusion. You deal in absolutes, not contingencies. The academy & the field is worse off as a result.

I didn't find the categories of Dr. Dadabhoy's critique to be at all arbitrary. I think her tweet made clear that she was precisely not asking for inclusion in an existing program but pointing out the way the fundamental frames of the conference decentered BIPOC perspectives.

She quite literally accused the Huntington of not supporting BIPOC scholars. That’s fundamentally incorrect. Many BIPOC scholars have been supported by them. & I simply disagree that bc this conference program didn’t happen to have some, it means it’s flawed.pic.twitter.com/EYC2MiJLMH

To interpret that tweet as meaning "the Huntington has never supported a BIPOC scholar" would be reading well out of context. Insofar as conference presentations support our work, the programers of this conference did not seek opportunities to support BIPOC scholars at the event.

You might disagree about the importance of feature BIPOC scholars and perspectives at a conference about colonialism and slavery. But I think you're mischaracterizing Dr. Dadabhoy's points by claiming she issued an absolutist and arbitrary critique.

He’s not practicing good close reading nor does he seem to understand that in this situation, I have no power over the Huntington. Finally he doesn’t get that centering diversity means you invite scholars of color whether or not the topic is race.
