1/15 Senior academic whose MO was to exploit non-white researchers on low-paid contracts to extract data from 'diverse' communities gets a major fellowship - working for them was infuriating, at times traumatic tbh, and an education on #race in #academia. 2/15 I'm now wary of research groups specialising in migrants/diversity with hardly any non-white people. This senior white scholar claimed a level of expertise they didn't have, but got away with it because so few POCs in academia are in positions to question their authority
