Reminder: Who can know? On epistemic injustice in and around the academy (Dec 16, 5pm ET)
Hi friends,
Just wanted to send a reminder that our next session, focused on epistemic injustice and led by Alyssa Arbuckle, will be this Thursday, December 16 from 5-6pm ET. Sign up here to get the zoom link.
We'll look at the following texts:
Denisse Albornoz, Angela Okune, and Leslie Chan, "Can Open Scholarly Practices Redress Epistemic Injustice?,” from Reassembling Scholarly Communications: Histories, Infrastructures, and Global Politics of Open Access (2020)
Robin Wall Kimmerer, "Mishkos Kenomagwen: The Teachings of Grass" from Braiding Sweetgrass: Indigenous Wisdom, Scientific Knowledge, and the Teachings of Plants (2015)
Azar Causevic and Anasuya Sengupta, "Whose Knowledge Is Online? Practices of Epistemic Justice for a Digital New Deal" (2021)
I've added Alyssa's reflections and ideas to our ongoing notes document; take a look as you gather your thoughts, and feel free to jot down questions and notes of your own.
In addition to our reading discussion, I'd also love to spend some time this week talking about what this group can be, what directions we hope it might go, and what we might want to pursue collectively (if anything). I'm looking forward to seeing many of you then!
