1626331366156832768 | @JohannaMellis @Derekcrim While I’m not an academic, I’m a practicing lawyer, and previously sat for nearly a decade on the board of a restorative justice org. And I’m a survivor. But apparently *I* don’t know what I’m talking about compared to these few. Exhausting and infuriating doesn’t even cover it. | 4 |

1626192868137136128 | @Derekcrim I imagine how exhausting and traumatic it might be for survivors to have people who haven’t been abused (and indeed hold more cultural power than them) tell them that their input isn’t a priority, that they don’t know what they’re talking about.The elitism, exclusion, trauma. | 3 |
1626444748993986562 | @Derekcrim Correct me if I’m wrong, but I don’t recall seeing any abuse survivors standing up and asking for RJ. Most of the whistleblowers and victims that I support would most certainly be retraumatized by a RJ process. We’re still not addressing the bystanders and facilitators… | 1 |
1626329538941558785 | @JohannaMellis @Derekcrim Worth noting than nearly all academics who research athlete abuse will have got their information from participants who were survivors of abuse.So when they’re participants, survivors are to be listened to (?)Good grief. | 1 |
1626191046282473473 | @Derekcrim I've had a lot of respect for Donnelly & Kidd and the work they do.I can't respect this, though.It's pathetic to hear scholars of their stature say that we don't need to learn more, and that everything we already know about harm in sport says everything we need to know. https://t.co/19jBei6s3W | 1 |
1626198503453245440 | @Derekcrim Often for issues and contexts like this, inquiries aren't about advancing the knowledge of relevant academics and practitioners about individual harms, but about educating politicians and "the public" about these AND understanding the broader systemic effects or so it seems to me | 0 |
1626280035408551939 | @Derekcrim Canada please take J*rdan P*terson back lolWhen he published a video of himself crying literal tears because the movie Frozen did not affirm traditional marriage I thought his career would be over! nope | 0 |
1626271705126641668 | @Derekcrim I'm taking the current course to get a framework and schedule for reading the Grundrisse. So far I am finding it more interesting than Capital. Of course, I'm on sabbatical. Good times. | 0 |

1626330252694675460 | @Derekcrim @JohannaMellis As is the idea we know everything about abuse in sport.I’ll pack up my studies now then.As is the idea these studies don’t retraumatise survivors.We do ethics to mitigate this risk and support survivors who are our participants as best we are able to. | 3 |

1626032320980434947 | Thanks to @Derekcrim for an excellent lecture today about NCAA football, NIL, and the gig economy for the Sport and Human Rights Lab series. An insightful and important chat! Had me thinking about all sorts of ways the NCAA impacts labour before, during, and after enrolment. | 2 |
