Dearest apocrypha lovers, please join us this upcoming Friday, May 3rd at 12EDT for our next First Fridays Workshop! This month will feature exciting work from @sarahparkhouse.bsky.social on P.Oxy.5577 and the Gospel of Mary. See you there!
I don't know how to DM someone here either ๐ I just assumed it was possible. You can find me on Instagram as metalbiblicalscholar and message me there? And I can give you my email then :)
Video recordings of the papers from the conference @metalclassicist.bsky.social@metalbiblescholar.bsky.socialwww.youtube.com/playlist?lis...
If you want a copy just DM me and I can send it to you. Or I think it's on our conference website.
I'm an independent scholar. My disability and a period of severe illness meant I had to step back from academia proper. I miss lecturing, teaching is my favourite thing. So now I'm trying to facilitate academic spaces, & my own work, in different collaborative ways. Financed through patreon.
For your male abuser who happens to be a teacher as well. He wouldn't get to present at our conference. He wouldn't get to teach again if I were in charge. But basic safeguarding policies should rule out that at home tutoring stuff. It makes me so angry.
I love people to feel safe in spaces but we do that by making sure abusers, racists, homophobes feel unsafe-that the culture we create is one where they know that we will not protect their right to say harmful things. We protect the vulnerable. & we create that by being constructive not just hopeful
Oh yeah, I mean our code says "we accept no harassment, including sexual harassment. And we the organisers stand with victims of sexual abuse." We then explain how to report but also state our investigation will prioritise the safety of the most vulnerable among us.
I've put my CA conference paper transcript on researchgate, because why not www.researchgate.net/publication/...
