David Camfield and I go back three decades, to the days of the New Socialist Group and the various Days of Action citywide strikes across Ontario in the mid-1990s. 1/
We both ended up in sociology/labour studies, and have kept in touch through the years. But it’s been a long time since we actually saw each other in person. So it was great to reconnect on his home turf at the @cawls-acets.bsky.social meeting in Winnipeg ✊❤️ 2/end
@eidlin.bsky.social rocking S4P's pin and showing support for Palestine 🇵🇸 We will be sharing more pins at our alternative conference in August. Another great reason to #boycottASA😉
There are many ways to support, and we appreciate how sociologists are showing up in this moment!
Pro tip: if you ever get the chance to hear @prof-deleon.bsky.social give a talk, sprint to it. He is an amazing speaker, incredible scholar, and all around great human. Thanks for the great talk and congratulations on the book prize Prof de Leon!
It was great to reconnect with @prof-deleon.bsky.social at the @cawls-acets.bsky.social meeting in Winnipeg. Not only did we get to catch up & strategize together, but he got to pick up his hardware for the Leo Panitch Book Prize, & deliver the keynote. A true friend, colleague, and comrade ✊❤️
