I had the *most* fun co-editing and putting together this special edition of @RenewalJournal on Time and Politics with @ea_robinson. Please enjoy our editorial for highlights of the treasures within. I will be tweeting my personal highlights.... Thx to all who wrote for us! https://twitter.com/RenewalJournal/status/1335147650253918214
The always fantastic @TheRealistHom shows how timing is always something we do, not a metaphysical dimension, and therefore an underanalysed site of political struggle. https://twitter.com/RenewalJournal/status/1335152683032989696?s=20
See also @TheRealistHom's brilliant companion piece on the blog, showing how this plays out in the US election: https://renewal.org.uk/how-donald-trump-almost-stole-the-us-election-using-creative-timing/
This beautiful piece by @michaeljflexer and @LisaBaraitser reminds us of the political opportunities afforded by waiting and caring in the context of the pandemic and long histories of racial injustice https://twitter.com/RenewalJournal/status/1335155199728627713?s=20
I really love this piece by @arachnomancy who challenges some deeply held assumptions about the countryside and makes visible its coloniality. Well worth paying a subs to @RenewalJournal for this and thinking in conjunction about the #ColonialCountryside https://twitter.com/RenewalJournal/status/1335160232759054337?s=20
The fantastic @hannahelias provocatively shows that time itself has a history that needs to be taught in schools, going beyond the usual, though necessary, injunctions to include more stories in the History curriculum and focusing on *how* we tell them https://twitter.com/RenewalJournal/status/1335162749702172673?s=20
For those of you who love a good list: https://twitter.com/RenewalJournal/status/1335165265953259520?s=20
The weird timing coincidence of the pandemic and the maturing of the first Child Trust Funds opens up possibilities for future economic justice according to Rajiv Prabhakar https://twitter.com/RenewalJournal/status/1335167782447534080?s=20
Great review by @dmk1793 of a really thoughtprovoking book by @DavidLammy (or is that both the David Lammys?) https://twitter.com/RenewalJournal/status/1335170299168497664?s=20
The kids are all right – practical utopianism analyed by @Heat_McKnight. (As an aside, reminded me of being disciplined by a panel chair for having too intense a conversation with Heather about Foucault and utopias and hogging all the air in the room!) https://twitter.com/RenewalJournal/status/1335172815700443136?s=20
And finally, a very thought-provoking review by @symons_jon of After Geoengineering by @hollyjeanbuck about what on Earth we do next.... https://twitter.com/RenewalJournal/status/1335175332299563009?s=20
