#ECAS2023 represent on mastodon! Find me at the 'Rethinking degrowth from Africa' panel on Saturday, which I believe will be very exciting. I will be talking about West Tanzanian grassroots criticism on the excessive growth forced upon crops through industrial agriculture.

sidenote: I am in love with the africanstudieslibrary.org serendipitous suggestions. They are a very interesting take on decolonizing the library AND work really well for any of my searches so far. #serendipity #decoloniallibrary #library #decolonial #FID #africanstudies

Like many people with comp lit brain, I tend to have hundreds of different interests I jump around between at any given time. Since leaving the PhD track, I've been able to make more time to explore some of my other interests that I might post about here, such as #horrorfiction, #cosmichorror, #JewishMysticism, and #demonology.
