Abstract

Abstract This reflection focuses on reading Geography and Geographers and Political Geography today. In particular, it examines these texts in relation to the contexts of the changing nature and structure of the university and the persistence of white supremacy and anti-black violence in our contemporary moment. In doing so, I look at how these texts might better include some of these challenges—to consider the increasing precarity of the academic job market and to better incorporate black geographies as foundational to the field.
