@Scarlet@queer.af nothing wrong with a lil Venus flytrap to keep the flies down!

@ljwrites appropriate tbh

It is the time of the semester when only irasutoya's person who does not get out of the futon can express my emotions

(aka, new icon)

@ljwrites yeah I'm really enjoying working with his interviews!

After discussing an event where he had to testify in court about racism in the university & admitted that he was the only black person in his department & was also the only person who hadn't received a raise: «Now I’m not saying somebody discriminated against me, they just treated me differently»

@ljwrites yeah he's a really interesting interview subject, because he's very unwilling to say anything that would come off as...challenging? But at the same time he very clearly spent his entire time in academia challenging racist systems & advocating for black students so there's just shadows like this line everywhere where you can infer a lot of the stuff he's not quite willing to actually openly accuse the university of

@mythologybot alright curse breaking via royal titty milk is a new one for me

@ljwrites its slightly clearer in the full context — this is the middle of a ~3 hour interview I’m processing

@ljwrites order of appointment to the committee — so he was either the last guy or literally added after they realized they’d filled all the seats with white people

A professor discussing his appointment to a committee meant to promote equity for black students on campus in the late '60s: «I was 21 or 22 on a committee of 21, I was the only Black person in the room»
