De/Institutionalize: Citing White Men and Other Academic Inheritances (with Special Guest Jessica Falcone)

Citation is reciprocity. Citation is legitimacy. And citations are the bricks that form the walls of academia.

In conversation with special guest Dr. Jessica Falcone and drawing from the incisive critiques of Sara Ahmed, we discuss how writing culture in academia (specifically in the social sciences) encourages white, patriarchal practices and relations—citing white men. How can we be more reflexive and intentional with both writing and citational practices so as not to perpetuate hierarchies and exclusions?

De/Instutionalize is a series from Un/Livable Cultures focusing on the ways in which academic cultures and institutions participate in regimes of oppression and subjugation. Dr. Jessica Falcone is Professor of Anthropology at Kansas State University. She specializes in South Asian and religious studies as well as anthropology of diaspora, transnationalism, futurity/temporality, globalization, and material culture and gift exchange.
