Abstract

I began to feel a sense of belonging to others after I read Fields of Play: Constructing an Academic Life, as Laurel Richardson wrote in a way that did connect with my own uncomfortable experience of life in the academy. Inclusion can mean different things, but in this chapter I associate it mostly with feeling entitled to participate and to belong, alongside others.
