Haven't stopped over here in a while, but wanted to share this great news -- received my editor's copies this week and it looks fabulous. 🤗 New chapters on decolonial research, 'encountering the digital', critical physical geography, activist archival research, GeoHumanities and creative methods, more-than- human approaches, and a beautiful chapter on writing. Returning chapters updated to address remote work / pandemic challenges, racial justice concerns, and technological advances.

Incentives for academics have become increasingly perverse over the last 50 years, according to this 2017 article by Edwards and Roy

Today is #TransDayofRemembrance when we honor and remember trans lives taken by violence. How horrifying that a deadly attack upon the LGBTQ+ community in Colorado Springs should occur right before this solemn day.
Hate isn’t born in us. It is taught. It must end.
This starts with our political leaders, who must cease their cynical attacks against our community before another attack occurs.
Call out the hate. Remind them of its consequences. Hold them to account.

Might as well start by *tooting* a recent book I co-edited. This was really a labor of love!
