I had the joy of presenting at the University of Kent with Skepsi Journal this week. The theme of the conference was “unmuting”, my presentation focused on the language Holocaust survivors used in their recorded testimonies to discuss relationships built sexual barter in the concentration camps.

I recently had the pleasure of presenting some of my recent research at the Everyday Communication in the Holocaust Workshop. It was a great experience, the presentations and subsequent discussions were so enlightening. @manmetuni.bsky.social @rosieramsden.bsky.social @barnabasbalint.bsky.social
