Just finished @lbnaylor.bsky.social 's "All Geographers Should Be Feminist Geographers. Creating Care-full Academic Spaces". Resonates very much with what our Grenoble coven is trying to do. Read it! @spacedemands.bsky.social powerful afterword starts with words on which we should all reflect:

For the first time in my life, a physician (my new ENT, a WM) knew what the research said about Black women and offered it to me without me having to ask. More of this.
AAG Detroit filled my heart and spirit. So many important moments, warm hugs, and solidarities formed. At the top of my list is laughing with Gwendolyn Warren, our Honorary Geographer, and witnessing Rickie Sanders get her flowers. What a gift.
In light of the upcoming @geographers.bsky.social conference, take a look at the many incredible co-editors of the journal! Our editorial team is comprised of those with a passion for critical geography, and work without compensation to keep ACME's commitment to #openaccess possible. #AAG #AAG2025
