1/ A few months ago, I posted about my experiences with anthropology graduate studies hoping to support #hautalk in discussing the asshole problem in anthropology.
2/ I noted in my post that, as a privileged white, cis, able-bodied male student, I "could only imagine" how much more difficult these situations could be for others.

1/ I’ve been going back and forth about sharing this, but with #hautalk making a return on #AnthroTwitter, I think it might be time for me to share my experiences with anthropology graduate programs. Long thread and content warnings for abuse and suicide.
2/ I’ve had four PhD supervisors so far. I’ve been afraid to tell people that for fear of seeming like a difficult or bad student, but as certain events become more distant, I’m becoming more capable of not taking these things personally.
