Heading home after a fantastic and cathartic SCMS conference. This has always been my scholarly home, and this year was a joyous family reunion, and welcome to newer grad students and scholars.

This #SCMS23 public media panel โ€” with Josh Sheppard, Laura Garbes, and Sherman Dorn โ€” has been amazing: itโ€™s just so heartening to see a group of scholars who know their shit, who are in dialogue with one another, whose are unified in pursuit of a larger public, political end, which cultivates a sense of camaraderie and complementarity. Such a great example of collaborative scholarship.
