“Fiction is a house with many stately mansions, but also one in which it is wise, at least sometimes, to swing from the chandeliers.”

I don’t often mention my actual job but it’s been taking over a little lately. I’m currently re-reading a lot of theoretical texts on intersectional liberation politics for work, which has me writing a seemingly infinite strategy document on different recommendations for how we can spur systemic change in our organisation. I’m grateful for a rare chance to approach my job in a research-based, theoretically-focused way as I usually lead on very operational projects. Some very promising (but often frustrating, due to inaction) conversations about decolonising the university, dismantling our systems that oppress marginalised students and augmenting activism in our roles.
