🪭 My panel was on fire🪭 I should not be allowed to present in French. I cracked so many jokes. Academia is serious business but we all have a good laugh 😂 Oh well! . #SFPS Annual Conference 2025. @sfhs.bsky.social

Given @erinktwohig.bsky.social would be too modest to share her own paper on the @sfps.bsky.social account, I'll do it for her. Great paper on Fanon and football through the FLN organised Algerian team.

Dispatches from other parallel #SFPS25 panels! This one sounds great
Jessica Breakey giving an absolutely fascinating paper on Josie Fanon through an analysis of her library. Wonderful that Josie is getting the attention she deserves as an activist, journalist, feminist, radical thinker and woman who made history rather than just witnessing it. @sfps.bsky.social
