A vibrant event to end this conference. Special thanks for the staff work and technical support that has made this conference possible. Hybrid conferences are really good ideas, but it takes a lot of support to make them happen. The student workers and tech professionals have done a great job. #IAFFE #IAFFE2023

Mourning the loss of friend and mentor Drucilla Barker, radical economist and feminist theorist. Drue was a generous scholar who did much to showcase and promote the work of others, including co-editing four edited volume projects. She was an interdisciplinary thinker with a background in philosophy; my fondest conference memory is the FEMMSS meeting she helped organize in Columbia in 2009.

I’m a long-time member of #IAFFE and have written a little in #FeministEconomics. I have book a few years back, _The Known Economy_, which is a #postcolonial take on the history of #NationalIncomeAccounting.

I teach in Interdisciplinary Arts and Sciences at #UWBothell and, with S. Charusheela, enjoy the company of #Martythedog. Looking forward to participating in the community and multiplying hashtags because #obscurehashtagsrule. 2/2
