Damn, you got a lot of author copies!
I like that manuscripts preserve the quirks of writing by actual peopleβmistakes, accidents, changed minds. Thereβs a real
empathy that comes with looking at a manuscript.
Next week!

The decline of democracy comes at the hands of unregulated big tech. Vanceβs bewildering accusations against the EU and Ukraine aim at dismantling the regulatory institutions that keep tech companies in check.

Most of us organisers work on Christianity, but our main interest for this workshop is in how dominant groups βotherβ minority groups. That said, weβre also interested in how minority groups respond to such treatment.
