Andy Hines gives a fascinating history of the division of labor and academia in early ideological disputes between the AAUP and AFL around the Red Summer moment -- at first I thought this was a history situated in 2022! Very much look forward to Hines's history of the split #MLA2023 #laboringacademia

@pintsandpoetry What's the hashtag we were using for academic labor? #laboringacademia ?

@SarahBuchmeier points out the continuing needs of academics who move outside academia for *intellectual community* and support, and asks us to provide it. She asks that MLA and others continue to support the "academic diaspora" through library access, professional support, and continuing work on how to manage a research agenda as a public scholar. #laboringacademia
