#AAG Stanley Brunn Award for Creativity in #Geography
Judith Carney is named recipient of the 2026 award. Her fieldwork in West #Africa and Latin America over the last four decades has illuminated #agroecologies worldwide.
US Fascism has academia in its crosshairs now. The whole point is to terrorize us into silence. I'm still considering going to the #AAG in Detroit, but considering if my financial, intellectual, and emotional labour is better spent elsewhere (e.g. #Palestine). In any case, and I have a call with an immigration US lawyer later today and will decide last-minute. Thankfully I can defer the decision because I don't have expensive flights to rebook.
My department at #UofT is sending announcements to grad students and faculty members who are going to the #AAG in Detroit in a couple of weeks to ask us to register with the safety abroad office, because the USA is a dangerous hostile zone now.
If I end up going, this will likely be the very last time I go to the US in the foreseeable future.
I'm reading this 1956 essay by Carl O Sauer, titled "the education of a geographer". It's a beautiful meditation on the disciplinary incoherence of #geography as a discipline, which was true back then, and is even more true today.
It strikes me is that I only came across the essay a few days ago, and I'm a PhD student in geography.
I feel that every university degree should have a required course about the history of the discipline it studies.
