Some reviews of The Banker Ladies book #UTP miss the point. As a #Feminist Economics Fellow at #Ujima, I share the work in Fortunately zine by the underlining key points. Art credit goes to Santino Santillana of the Royal #Danish Academy of Art. See link below. fortunately.us/valuing-the-...

Black feminist scholars often “budget for legal fees in grant applications” and pay out of pocket to defend their research and teaching—“No one else has to do this,” reports Dr. Caroline Shenaz Hossein. rabble.ca/human-rights...
Academic freedom is not 'free' - especially for Black women scholars - rabble.ca
By not supporting Black female academics, post-secondary institutions are complicit in silencing their voices.
