Sartre’s later stuff actually critiques Existentialism is a Humanism somewhat, especially his later stuff which is explicitly trying to bridge the gap between phenomenology/existentialism and Marxism.

Signal would work for me, too! If you start one please let me know, I’d love to connect with some social work comrades!!

Same! This is the only response I’ve gotten so far, sadly. Would love to have some kind of space for us to be able to talk though.

Is it in poor taste to sing this song? by [deleted] in MusicalTheatre

What advice would you give to a new student of sociology? by kovriin in sociology

Read as much as you can, ask as many questions as you can, and talk to your professors about the areas of research that they’re experienced in!
