Here is @kathleen_stock1 on one of her many, many, condescending attacks on Prof. Arday.
Here’s Kathleen Stock laughing and mocking Cambridge professor Jason Arday a few days ago. This is one of the videos she’s just hurriedly deleted. Privileged, academic ivory tower snobbiness and nastiness - with an undertone of you know what. #Terfs #GenderCritical
This is her “statement.” Avoid accountability, deflect, claim innocence. @kathleen_stock1 was relentless in her bigoted assault on Professor Arday. Now she runs from her record of verbal abuse and assault.

Dwight Hopkins is not MAGA.
Accusations that a Black liberation theologian had switched his loyalty to Donald Trump sent the world of religious and theological studies into shock.

My @NYUpress book has an incredible cover, highlighting the breathtaking work of Coptic painter, Dr. Guirguis Lotfy. Mixing iconographic imagery with the duality of movement, the painting speaks to several aspects of the book. Release date is March 2025! 🎉
Looking forward to sharing some initial writing on my current ethnographic research on the Nation of Islam!
Livestream available for this important gathering.

Chicago narrates an incredible story about black religion. It’s a signal city that immediately directs our attention toward many movements and sounds...
