The jackals are out, as they usually are for a woman who speaks up in a way that challenges patriarchy. (And a lot of why victims don't come forward or withdraw--as a Weinstein victim did--is because the misogynist public and legal system launch their own punitive assaults.)

I really hope that fieldwork can be a good experience for them! If these resources can help then that would be great. You may also want to check out the pdf version that can be printed or sent in emails directly (and has a bit of extra academic weight to it as a reference) doi.org/10.17613/355...

Trans+ Inclusive Fieldwork Guidelines
Transgender (trans+) researchers face substantial inequity and risk when undertaking fieldwork. The guidelines focus specifically on the inclusion of the lives and identities of trans+ researchers, expanding on the PRIDE Fieldwork Guidelines*. The guidelines were created through a series of focus groups with trans+ researchers and self-described allies, as part of the Pathways: Participatory Approaches to Trans-Inclusive Field Research project. The project was facilitated by and developed in collaboration with Dr Robin Hayward, a trans science communicator and scientist, who consulted on the trans-inclusivity of the project throughout. The project was led by Professor Martin Zebracki, in collaboration with Dr Tilen Kolar, and was funded by the Research England Enhancing Research Culture Fund. * Zebracki, M., Hayward, R., Gill, F., Wimpenny, S., Watson, C.S. & Brown, H.

🚨 This is dangerous, not just outrageous. Two major newspapers ran stories implying disabled people were faking it to get 2-for-1 Oasis tickets, simply because some wheelchair users stood up at the gig. Let me explain why this kind of reporting is harmful. 🧵1/8
Composite image of news articles about Oasis fans misusing disabled tickets.

Transcribed Text:

Oasis fans buying 2-for-1 disabled tickets 'ditch wheelchairs once they get in' Oasis fan Mark Chapman was left deeply frustrated at the band's iconic reunion gig in Manchester's Heaton Park as 'non-disabled' gig-goers 'took over' the accessible area
