Who else has experienced an abuse of power in academia? Please share. Eons ago a diss advisor stole my work. I reclaimed it in 2nd ed of Servants of Globalization. Arlie Hochschild rephrased my concept and named it the #carechain , used my data, none of her own. #SOCAF #sociology

Across the globe, migrant domestic workers are legally dependent on the sponsorship of the employer they live with. How do employers manage this unequal relationship? @rhacel explains at the BSA’s #britsoc22 conference, 20-22 April Places still available!

I had the great honor of meeting Fedelina Lugasan, who at 80-plus years old, left the abusive work situation she was caught in for decades. Please listen, and consider the nuance and care taken to share her story, her bravery, her voice, with you … 1/4

@victoriadreyes @phdlt The way I have survived is by knowing that whatever I produce from what I thought about, developed, gathered data on etc will be better than anyone who tries to pouch it. So I have never hesitated to share WIP etc (except in one or two occasions with a certain audience).
