Maybe I need to storyboard this piece. I am casting about because I am not sure what these people really want. They say academia and activism. My story might be: I did these things. It led to a certain intellectual, and also political development, that I would not have gotten to if I had not … More Storyboard
(This is for the recast of that paper.) On the question of the interaction of academia and activism: In my case, activism has been a parallel life that takes time away from academic work.
