Join us to discuss Tim Dean's cheeky take on Freud's thoughts about group sex, encouraging psychoanalysis to think beyond dyads to triads and more..... Our reading group starts November 14th! bit.ly/QEReadGrp2425

Ok, here we go: Much of my work concerns the history and return of scientific racism. I’ve written extensively about attempts to resurrect the shuffling corpse of race science and eugenics for many years. Bigotry dressed up as biology. 1/n
