The issue here is not that a committee is formed (or for ex., a Pal Studies dept. Is endowed), the issue is that these are not “wins” and casting it as such is dishonest/unproductive for the movement!

P.S. A quick reminder that the CAWS book is completely open access (i.e. available for free online), so you don't have to rely on anyone else's 'reading' (I think this is a generous term for certain engagements) you can just read it for yourself: taylorfrancis.com/books/oa-e…
All performances from our first in-person event 'Ancient Queerstories: New Stages for Old Tales' can be now found online! Check them out on our website, or on our youtube channel:

Our first host is the [insert Homeric epithet] Dionysos Slain! Dionysos is a 21st century lesbian’s idea of a 90s queer theorist’s idea of a decadent Victorian poet’s idea of a debauched 18th century painter’s idea of an Ancient Greek god. Follow him here: instagram.com/dionysosslain

Gaza and Palestine have proven how hollow and empty the words humanitarian and activist are when applied to celebrities, politicians, and academics.
