Replying to @HumnEnterprises
I am a research affiliate at UCLA Ctr for the Study of Women, which gets me access to actual books when the library is open. I am blocked from online access. I ask friends to send me pdfs when needed, but this access issue is a huge problem for independent scholars @NCISorg

If you're still in grad school, start the work & prepare now for multiple career paths. Think broadly about what, exactly, it is about your academic work that energizes you, and try to apply that to other sectors or career interests.

"The stereotype of the college graduate living in their parents' basement does not account for the radically changed workplace that under-compensates such professions as teacher, health-care worker, social worker or librarian (the “feminized” professions)" wapo.st/2Au5rjG

The requirement by @ConversationUK that only scholars affiliated w academic institutions may be contributors is short-sighted & exclusionary by not recognizing the valuable scholarship of #independentscholars, for eg the work of @BeckyNic7 @KeriLeighMerrit @SmcCSid @JeffreyBPerry

Our annual plea: if you’re attending #MLA18, remember that #adjuncts & other precarious academics get little—if any—funding. Buy one a meal, or a drink, or anything else to show your support. Then let us know so we can acknowledge. Please RT.
