Until and unless folks in marginalized groups know they have protection, those groups remain at the mercy of authorities. Institutions dictate what they can do, who they can be. Stock’s letter presumes that academic debate can exist in the absence of safety, when it cannot.

The ongoing debate is tricky. Both sides agree that academics must have the freedom to question and challenge ideas and value systems. Those who penned the letter want to ensure they can challenge their institution’s stance—but they already have the protection of the institution.

Apparently someone refuses to actually do baseline research in critical gender studies and also the research being done by the far right researchers. Waiting for your pieces about the far right. Do tell me when you actually do some research.

It is super fascinating when you continue to use terms like "silence" but somehow have decided that an entire gendered group does not have the right to exist or speak. And apparently we're still stuck in 2nd-wave feminism b/c somehow intersectional feminism is not a thing.

I, for one, think that Dr. Kim is a prominent academic with experitise in post-colonial DH with a specialization in gender and race within medievalism. But check the CV (https://www.brandeis.edu/facultyguide/person.html?emplid=af7a548e53b99c6485e7c8b6c5064be72ca99867 …) to be sure.

Apparently you cannot actually do close reading of your own tweets. You wrote: "You stand for fascism..." But as I also do far right research, explain to me again where your expertise is on this topic of the far right, gender, and anti-trans misogyny?
