Judges Drop Bars in Law, Love, and Poetry | Professor Hoctor

Send a text [https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/2318311/open_sms] I am excited to share an episode that gave me a lot of delight to record, partly because it is my first strictly academic episode, but also because I recorded it with my mentor Professor Hoctor! In this episode, Professor Hoctor explains the interesting parallels between law and poetry. He takes us through how the two often feed off of each other in insightful ways. Listen and learn about: * The similarities and differences between law and poetry;  * Why judges sometimes turn to poetry in their legal reasoning; and  * When judicial officers have written judgments as poems or rap songs! A fascinating discussion.   https://www.tiktok.com/@nonds_academe?is_from_webapp=1&sender_device=pc

In this episode, I share the lessons I learnt on TikTok about how to reach more people. I also set out a new direction for the podcast, which includes: * Broadening the scope of the topics covered in the podcast; * Using the podcast to "open up" the classroom; and * Using the podcast to discuss difficult issues under calmer conditions. I hope this provides some clarity.  https://www.tiktok.com/@nonds_academe?is_from_webapp=1&sender_device=pc

4. Be Inspired by Asanele | Navigating academic and racial tensions with passion

Send a text [https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/2318311/open_sms] One of the great treasures of being a lecturer is connecting with students. In this episode, I had a conversation with one of my brightest students, Asanele Ndevu. We spoke about the impact of COVID on her academic life, how she navigated racial tensions at her university, and how she overcame any academic challenges that came her way.  Asanele is wise and insightful. I hope you draw inspiration from her courage, light, and energy.   https://www.tiktok.com/@nonds_academe?is_from_webapp=1&sender_device=pc
