About Cathy Boardman
trying to create a better world.
Not gonna lie, this feels weird. I’ve had an amazing outpouring of support for my crowd justice, but that is for the solicitors. I don’t see a penny of it (quite rightly), but I’m struggling to put food on the table and this was suggested a few times, so sod it, it’s worth a go!
Read about my case below. I am fighting this, which is making it more difficult to find other work. I am fighting not just for myself, but for the principles of academic freedom. To protect other educators from the fear being bullied out of their jobs, and to not deny students the opportunity to grow. Debate and critical thought are key aspects of higher education; making some topics taboo is insulting to students and lecturers alike.
I am currently working on adapting my university level lectures on music and culture for a wider audience. If you think you’d be happy to buy me a pint while we chatted about this in a pub, please buy me a pretend pint here.
(The pretend ones are better for my liver, as well as helping me feed my family!)
