Covid-19 and the Hopeless University at the End of the End of History
Abstract: It’s Monday, 23 March 2020. I am in my study looking out over the Western Park area of Leicester, with blue sky and wisps of cloud. A Sikh man just walked past a cherry tree in the garden on the next road over from ours. The cherry tree is in blossom, and the silver birches on that road and the young oak tree in the garden just down from where I sit are in the process of leafing-up. The beauty of this is that I can see the return of the blue tits and great tits as they feed on-and-in the Buddleia, and skip between those trees. I can see a heron following the line of the brook towards Braunstone Park each day. I have seen a little egret heading the other way. I see this life unfolding as I work from home, for (can I still say at?) De Montfort University in Leicester. I work in the Education Division. I also work across the institution on projects in relation to decolonising the University, which is really important to me as I explore the idea of the abolition of the University. I am also a Universities and Colleges (trade) Union (UCU) committee member. Whilst I do some undergraduate teaching for first and second years, most of that took place in semester one. I have nine PhD students and a Masters student, with whom I work. And, of course, there are other things, but these are on my mind. They are on my mind because they centre people and relationships at a time of great stress, uncertainty, and anxiety. Placing people and individual/collective well-being at the centre pushes back against the idea of the University-as-was before Covid-19, which demanded that academic commodities take centre stage. These commodities are the things that higher education (HE) in the global North says that it values, like project deliverables, research outputs, public engagement activities, or human capital in the Postdigital Science and Education https://doi.org/10.1007/s42438-020-00118-3

The witch's flight
TL;DR: Kara Keeling as discussed by the authors argued that cinema and cinematic processes had a profound significance for twenty-first-century anticapitalist Black Liberation movements based in the United States and argued that the cinematic structures racism, homophobia, and misogyny, and, in the process, denied viewers access to certain images and ways of knowing.

"No Questions Asked" A Consideration of the Crime of Criminal Receiving
Duncan Chappell,Marilyn Walsh +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the criminal receiver and his crime stand out as sorely neglected by sociologists, psychologists, and criminologists, and the burgeoning rate of property theft with its need for the ready market of the receiver makes it clear that the fence has not shrunk before the social scientist's neglect.
