      @Undercoverhist @Econ_Marshall It’s just a random thought and maybe I’m just paraphrasing/rephrasing what you wrote, but my intuition is that we need to have a fine understanding of how racism permeated the economics corpus To get rid of it, we don’t want to have blind spots

    @Undercoverhist @Econ_Marshall Stop quoting the problematic work feels superficial, if not performative, especially if the quoted economist is dead Instead, we probably need to have a collective and open discussion, and dissect how racism was able not only to enter the corpus, but to remain there for so long
