Jason Arday: Plagiarism, Power, and Prejudice

This video was recorded before Jason Arday's untimely death in early August 2026. We have decided to keep this video up, as we feel the conversation surrounding academia, identity, and imposter syndrome is important, even pressing. There is a pinned comment with resources for you, should you need them. Take care. A star professor of sociology just resigned from his prestigious position at Cambridge University following accusations of plagiarism and fraud. We want to talk about imposter syndrome, the failures of academia, and the uniquely human tendency to fake it until we make it. We'll see you next time :) WANT TO BUY US A COFFEE? ☕️ https://ko-fi.com/hiddenrabbits TOPIC SUGGESTION BOX 💡 https://bit.ly/topicsuggestionbox FOLLOW US AROUND 💜 instagram:   / hiddenrabbitsmedia   📺 connor's channel:    / @connorangus   📙 lindsey's substack: https://lonelypony.substack.com/ 🎙️ listen on pocket casts: https://tinyurl.com/hiddenrabbits AFFILIATES 🌲 THE HUMANE SPACE: https://thehumanespace.onelink.me/gBP... 📚 BOOKSHOP: https://bookshop.org/shop/hiddenrabbits ⏹️ SKIN GRIP: https://skingrip.com?aff=484 (code PONY77) TIMESTAMPS 🐇 0:00 - thank youuu 🐇 2:40 - who what how? 🐇 16:54 - the dissertation problem 🐇 24:50 - disabilities + accountability 🐇 33:25 - oh, look who's here 🐇 36:58 - the memoir problem 🐇 53:33 - pitiful publishing 🐇 59:03 - imposter syndrome 🐇 1:04:53 - lying feels gooood 🐇 1:13:18 - curiosity is the cure SHOW NOTES → Icarus in the Faculty Lounge, The Atlantic // https://www.theatlantic.com/books/202...
