Equality
From ze and zir to they/them: here’s why you should respect gender pronouns.
The struggle for equality is real. The "woke police" are a myth. "How ironic that the rightwing culture warriors claim to support free speech. They seem to want minorities to shut up and stop complaining."
The complicated past and promising future of queer studies. "More students are interested in LGBTQ+ studies than ever before. But can the field keep up with our changing culture, and will universities invest enough into it?"
Free speech
The myth of the free speech crisis. "How overblown fears of censorship have normalised hate speech and silenced minorities."
The growing threat to journalism around the world. "In many countries, journalists are being targeted because of the role they play in ensuring a free and informed society."
Facts
“Good taste”
It's all about class anxiety. "Having three kinds of kale in the supermarket and the rise of celebrity chefs can be traced back to our lack of social mobility."
Success
The myth of making it. "If the most financially and critically successful artists don’t feel successful, maybe there’s something wrong with how we think about success."
$$$
It turns out money can kind of buy happiness after all. "A new paper argues that, actually, winning the lottery totally does make you happy."
