Had the pleasure of being invited on a podcast about #USpolitics by some fantastic colleagues to talk about the role of gender in the current US political environment and for the 2024 election cycle, and about women leaders in the US and elsewhere. Really enjoyed the conversation!
The episode is now on Spotify (or Apple Podcasts). Spotify link: https://open.spotify.com/episode/1ZSt7jsxFTIoFLZTwwnD2U?si=B9QPdOKfTmiz7cAN2arjwA
Rainbow Murray 🌈I have written a piece for @TheConversationUK comparing the political exits of #NicolaSturgeon and #JacindaArdern, arguing that it is refreshing to see leaders who know when it is time to go rather than clinging on until the bitter end https://theconversation.com/nicola-sturgeon-and-jacinda-ardern-what-two-shock-resignations-tell-us-about-good-leadership-200012
Delighted to share my latest piece for the LSE United States Politics and Policy Blog. In this piece, I discuss how Kamala Harris, Pete Buttigieg and Gretchen Whitmer have emerged as the Democrats' rising stars after the midterms.

Thrilled to share that I have a chapter out in the PSA American Politics Group briefing paper on the 2022 US Midterms. In this chapter, I explore challenges and opportunities for the Democratic Party going into 2024 and discuss who the midterms have put on the map.

Josh BraunAnnouncement about the list of comm & media scholars I've been maintaining with @bethanyklein: The Google Doc will continue to be maintained, but I’m also setting up a new version of the list compatible with the discovery tools that already allow folks to browse and search other lists of academics on Mastodon. Scholars need to opt into the new list to be included and can do so by following the handle @commodon.

Mark IgraMy winter break project was an app to browse and follow academics from many of the lists on the Academics on Mastodon page.
https://find.sciences.social reads data from the lists, and makes it easy to see profiles and follow academics.
The app doesn't scrape or store any information - it just shows the cdv-files in a new and (I hope) more useful way.
Give it a try.
Excited to say that I've been working on a briefing paper on the 2022 US Midterms with the PSA American Politics Group! The online launch event is on 31 Jan and I'll be speaking about my chapter on rising and fading stars in the Democratic Party.
