In March, I published one post per day. Here were the most popular from that month:

The Abuse of Jewish Fragility
When someone is in an abusive relationship, they often have to construct a mental model of their abuser in order to survive. They use this mental model to understand what will set off the abuse. If I do this, will they attack me? Every action is run through this mental model of their abuser to see what will trigger abuse…

We Must End The Epistemic Violence Against Intactivists
“In short, to communicate we all need an audience willing and capable of hearing us. The extent to which entire populations of people can be denied this kind of linguistic reciprocation as a matter of course institutes epistemic violence.” - Kriste Dotson…

This next post did *not* make my most popular posts but was my personal favorite from the month. Call this my most underrated post:

Hegemon Media
Hermeneutical Justice Is The Key To Social Justice
Hermeneutical justice is the key to all social justice. Only once a movement can find the language to name and describe the challenges it faces, it will be able to solve those challenges. In Epistemic Injustice: Power and the Ethics of Knowing Miranda Fricker defines hermeneutical injustice as “when a gap in collective interpretive resources puts someone…
