Item ). ‘You’re on your own baby’: Sudanese women bridging conflict, journalism, j’activism, and media (in)visibilityThis article investigates the role of Sudanese women journalists and activists – termed ‘j’activists’ – in documenting and amplifying the humanitarian crisis resulting from Sudan’s ongoing conflict, which remains largely invisible in global media. Drawing on in-depth interviews with 10 participants, the study examines how intersecting identities, including gender, ethnicity, and professional affiliation, shape their experiences and reporting practices. Participants face acute challenges, including safety threats, censorship, emotional trauma, and restricted access to information, while navigating a global media landscape skewed by geopolitical biases.Item Othered but Unbothered: Agentic and inclusive narratives of Black Professors in US higher educationThis research paper argues that as a collective, African American, Afro–Caribbean and African professors experience discrimination at the intersection of their race, gender and nationality. To build my argument, I engage in conversations with ten professors from the Black Diaspora to elevate their stories of dialectical tensions, and racial and cultural stereotypes they confront and negotiate, while maintaining agency and creating safe spaces for inclusive and transformative teaching and learning in their classrooms.
