Awful. A teenager, dead by suicide in an ICE detention center. There is now a crisis of suicide inside the detention system; I have never seen anything like it. Suicide has happened before, but they were very rare. This is the third or fourth this year.

I just finished Anti-Colonial Research Praxis. I’m going to recommend it to my PhD supervisees, who often think they have to confirm their praxis-based, anti-racist research to narrow disciplinary norms. You and your colleagues open up so many other possibilities!

"The idea that art is political isn’t a deformation of art. It’s a fulfilment of it," I said. A profile on the cost of speaking out, although I stress how much more this costs other writers. But there are also benefits to speaking out--a clear conscience, happiness and joy, new allies and friends.

Book cover design for Anti-Colonial Research Praxis: Methods for Knowledge Justice, edited by Caroline Lenette. The main title, subtitle, and editor’s name appear at the top right corner. At
the centre, against a pale background, a young Black girl stands sideways in a field of colourful circles and vertical lines representing flowers and stems. Her gaze is turned towards the viewer. The young girl’s beaded braids fall across her shoulder. Her sleeveless dress glitters in circular gold patterns. She wears gold bracelets of different sizes from her wrist to the upper arm.

This year, I've spent a bit of time reflecting on what success means in the context of the world we live in, when so much of it is heartbreaking 💔 This poem resonates and is a good reminder of what really matters - it keeps me grounded.

What is success? To laugh often and much. To win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children. To earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends. To appreciate beauty. To find the best in others. To leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition. To know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded. Ralph Waldo Emerson
