“What I learned at Carleton continues to influence my academic thinking and teaching over a decade later. Particularly, Annie Larivée’s use of the Ancient Greeks to frame philosophy as a transformative practice has been important to my new work on prison abolition. As well, my favourite current course to teach is one I call ‘Self and Social Transformation.”
