I am walking my DPhil (PhD) student (also a PoC) out after our supervision and we stop in the Front Quad to finish discussing a point. A white TOURIST is taking PHOTOS. She to us: Can you please MOVE out of my picture, I want to get an AUTHENTIC shot of OXFORD. #RaceMeToo

This post, by ⁦@federica_paddeu⁩ and me, concludes our State Responsibility symposium on ⁦@ejiltalk⁩ . —> Dithering, Trickling Down, and Encoding: Concluding Thoughts on the ‘ILC Articles at 20’ Symposium – EJIL: Talk! ejiltalk.org/dithering-tric…

Multiple sources are counselling me to be cautious about speaking of this or that yes, I may cause discomfort. If that is to silence me, then I COLLUDE with the status quo. If I don't speak, who can speak? They are MY stories You behave badly to me but I be gagged? #RaceMeToo

Untold story (received) a white male western scholar just told me "well my work is original, I just follow my intuition and prefer not to read too much". How many POC and other marginalized peoples (women, etc) can say this in law and have a job...? #RaceMeToo

I tell these stories to show behaviour that will not have been experienced by those belonging to the dominant culture. I hope you start to see how irksome, time-consuming, potentially embarrassing, undermining this all is. #RaceMeToo
