Thrilled to be teaching @tylerbaldor’s “Acquainted Strangers” again during my “queer technologies” section of class tomorrow, especially as it’s a good lead-in to next week’s queer geographies and spaces topic.

Do y'all have a favorite Bourdieu reading? We’re covering class, habitus, taste, distinction, etc. in my Social Theory class the week after spring break and trying to narrow it down. Currently have Wright’s “Class Counts” and Harnecker’s “Social Classes” on the schedule.

I have a student in my online Minorities in Crime and Justice course who is hesitant to do this week's discussion post due to current political issues around the topic. She's worried about Canvas security and a future employer seeing/weaponizing it. Any experience with this?

Any good readings on purity culture? I have a student in my sexualities class who wants to do their discussion leadership on this topic. I included Avishai and Burke’s “God’s Case for Sex” in the “religion” section of my syllabus, but want something more specific for purity.
