I admire people who can do what Ta-Nehisi Coates did in this interview: be direct and unflinching in the face of intellectually and morally unserious questions. It’s difficult to explain the concept of a “principle” to people who have none.
Ta-Nehisi Coates’ new book, “The Message,” is a trio of interconnected essays that examine how the stories people tell — or avoid telling — can shape and even distort reality: “I am most concerned always with those that don’t have a voice.” cbsn.ws/4gJxe2g

I am currently mentoring a few academics (my own PhD students and a few early-career TT scholars) and I am trying to teach them about how to frame their work in terms of the broader questions of a field, and a discipline.
Any ideas for good citations on how to do this linking?

Talking about 'failure' in research, failing at fighting the urge of using air quotes.
Thanks for the invitation, to my co-panelists @A_Andrikopoulos and @OsanamiSayaka for sharing their stories, and to everyone who attended! @IMISCOE_PhD
“Yes, sometimes we receive rejections which were not planned. The first thing to say about it is basic, but maybe the most important and difficult one: be gentle with yourself.” @normaschemschat on “failure” @IMISCOE 2024 annual conference #PhDactivities
