@thiago-barbosa.bsky.social ‘s book is truly an excellent introduction to the first female Indian anthropologist, Irawati Karve (1905-1970). Her work challenges both colonial academia and the current Hindutva view. I look forward to learning more.

Excellent read about the practice of locking away the undesirables in Britain in recent times (1913- 1959), done in the name of science, led by the eugenics movement. Offers a lesson in humility and a caution against conjuring up righteous panic.

Another HIV clinic, another new diagnosis in a young person who had never been on nor heard of HIV PrEP. We truly are failing to get the message out to those who would benefit most, and must do better #IDSky #HIVSky

Nails all ready for World Aids Day 2024.

It’s time to end the silence and challenge the misconceptions about HIV. Let’s educate, support, and show compassion this World AIDS Day and everyday!
