Cultural Dark Academia

After my last post about the lack of representation in academia, I felt it neccessary to provide some examples of what I’m talking about. Obviously there are more countries in the world than I can list and provide books for, so for a quick list this is what I got. !! Keep researching !! If you have any more books by POC please reply them !! If a country isn’t listed, that doesn’t mean it’s not important, this is just what I could get together real quick. If I made any mistakes, please let me know, we’re all learning. We need to help each other end eurocentrism in academia, so value representation and educate yourselves 💓💓💓

Is it too much to ask to be one half of a lesbian couple?

Kinda ridiculous that I'm not chasing my lover around our central european castle with both of us shouting Keats verses, holding firmly to the belief that we can never die and we will be together for eternity tbh 😒
