From an idea in 2008 to a book in 2025, ECHOES OF CARE: DEAFNESS IN MODERN BRITAIN has been published by @mcgillqueensup.bsky.social ! It explores how changing perceptions of deafness intersected with healthcare, disability, and eugenics in 19th-century Britain. www.mqup.ca/echoes-of-ca...
A book standing upright on multiple copies, which are laying next to a 1920s Underwood typewriter.  The book cover is a faded and blurry background, with a photo of a person’s ear horizontal on the bottom, and text emitting from it to represent sound. The text in large font says “Echoes of Care” followed by “Deafness in Modern Britain” and the author’s name, Jaipreet Virdi.

Access to Work application takes most of my afternoon, and then I see their cheery response that they’ll reply in the next… 24 weeks. That’s a third of my contract. (I think I knew this but had repressed it, as you do.) Academic ableism is structural, I mutter, as I get back to reading about it

Exciting opportunity to undertake a fully-funded PhD on #QueerData and #Resillience with Lexi Webster and Kristen Schuster @unisouthampton.bsky.social 🌈 #LGBTQ #gender #sexuality #research pirs.soton.ac.uk/apply/
A description of the PhD, which reads: Queer Data and Resilience - Crisis narratives about privacy, creativity and automation have come to dominate techno-centric discourses about data. These crisis narratives, however, often overlook the very human vulnerabilities (re)produced by cis-hetero-patriarchal socio-technical infrastructures. This research will explore how queer data offer unique forms of resilience through attentiveness to plurality, mutability and intersectionality.
