Delighted to share that I passed my PhD viva today! Thank you to my examiners, Professor Heather Jones and Professor Claire Eldridge, for their rigorous engagement with my work, and to my supervisors, Professor Ingrid Sharp and Dr Alexia Moncrieff, for all of their support. #PhDone

So grateful for Ingrid’s inspiring feminist leadership — and very lucky to have her as a supervisor. Excited to carry her legacy forward on the W+IGS committee. 💜

Battle of Holbeck Moor, Leeds, UK (1936): 30,000 anti-fascists with red flags and trade union banners turfed out Oswald Mosley's Blackshirts, who'd hoped to foment hatred against Jewish immigrant workers in the area. #riots #FarageRiots #history #Fascism

Unsurprised, but disappointed, to see that Newnham College's JRFs are being defined as explicitly trans-exclusionary: newn.cam.ac.uk/research/res...

In response to today's supreme court ruling, we want to urge any researcher in Trans Histories to consider a proposal to our new Queer & Trans Histories series - because research into Trans histories will help to shape Trans futures: manchesteruniversitypress.co.uk/series/queer... #TransRights
