Academic Aunties
Ethel TungohanAcademia. It is a site of exclusion. For those of us who are first-generation, who are racialized, who are women, and who inhabit social locations that are traditionally unrepresented in this space, academia is full of landmines.

Excellent insight into academia, especially for women and underrepresented faculty. Absolutely biased, because the podcast covers a biased topic, the subtle and overt racism and sexism many underrepresented faculty have experienced. This podcast gives listeners ways to cope with this and a sense of solidarity.

I LOVE this podcast. Ethel and the guest aunties are so brilliant, insightful, and authentic. They really work to disentangle the intersections of power, privilege, labor, neoliberalism, white supremacy, colonialism, and patriarchy in academia. Their analysis is nuanced and often revelatory.

United States2 years ago - Such an important podcast
This podcast should be a graduate curriculum/faculty-admin training requirement. It makes me feel simultaneously seen and validates all of my own academic trauma, as well as enabling me to see all the different intersectionalities of oppression in the system I'm a part of. It makes me feel stronger and more capable of pushing against it knowing all the aunties are out there too.
