Infuriatingly beautiful writing, Anne. Belated (and much deserved) congratulations on your retirement. You are a fine woman, and a true leader in the literary community.
Fantastic, Anne. I am both saddened and angered that this happens to women all the time, including you. My desire is to celebrate all people, and women work extra hard at everything we attempt. I am thinking especially of all the invisible labor--cumulatively--that goes unknown and unnoticed for our entire lives. I'm celebrating this post today.
Thank you, Anne, for drawing attention to this reality. It has been and continues to be my experience both in academia and in ministry. It's hard, and I wrestle with it constantly. I am furious that you were treated in such a dismissive way when you retired. Shame on them. I feel seen by your post and appreciate you. (I don't know if you remember me, but I published the story "Snow Day" in the True Stories of Survival anthology.)
