Important thread re. generation and the pandemic, and again something we’re exploring in our fieldwork. #Covid had profound impacts across generation and this is reflected in moments of intergenerational understanding/solidarity existing alongside discourses of division/tension.

Yet more evidence from ONS of the profound generational imbalance of the economic effects of the pandemic. Of the Feb 2020-Feb 2021 annual decrease in employee jobs (down 693,000 overall) 63.1% (437k) were under 25 25.2% (174k) were 25-34 50-64s? Net increase of 32,000 jobs.

Last week, my university advertised a "pandemic productivity" seminar. Today, I got the "due to unforeseen circumstances" cancellation message. Unforeseen? Really? This little example shows why we need to change the narrative about productivity amid crisis. 🙏🏽 /Thread

#soc1027 students, I have one word for you: #ritual Such a shame our virtual exchange with @IUPUI anthropology students is over - this national tradition would be a belter to discuss!

Groundhog Day 2018 in Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania. Maybe the weirdest (but most fun?) assignment I’ve ever had.

A devastating yet beautiful tribute to so many lives lost.

Our balcony. I long for the day when I don’t have to climb out there to add another ribbon.

How can thousands of mostly white insurrectionists tear up the Capitol and practically nobody go to jail? #CapitolRiots #Insurrection #BlackLivesMatter

So damn tired of living in a country that treats Black grief as a threat and white rage as a sacrament


“It is a false economy and a catastrophic error to exclude civil society from knowledge and decision making; it undermines trust, which compromises compliance. It squanders communal efforts which people were ready and willing to make.” #soc1027

Today we remember the 383 men and boys killed in the worst coal mining disaster in English history. The 12th & 13th December 1866 are dark days in Barnsley's history, underground explosions at The Oaks Colliery left few survivors, the youngest victim was just 11 years old.
