Let me echo the praise of Shay’s leadership, energy, and positive impact on FEAST—I wouldn’t have ever even known about this wonderful group but for her. I was so heartbroken that this last weekend, of all the weekends of the year, was the same weekend that a conference at the Clark Library at UCLA, postponed from May 2020, was scheduled, preventing me from joining you either in person or virtually. I really longed to be with you all, and though I see the wisdom of making the conference in person every third year, and look forward to an annual virtual conference in the two intervening years, I am quite sad to have to wait so long to be in person again, I have missed this group so very much. Thank you again Shay!!!Yours, Nancy############################

############################I want to echo what previous messages have said--the thanks for leadership and planning, for thoughtful Zoom attention, for a fabulous program--with both range and diversity as well as coherence and engagement, and for the commitment to continuing the wonderful, complex, ever-evolving organism FEAST has become. I have such fond memories of long ago--including when I brought my mother, who then lived in Sarasota--she loved it, and happily volunteered to baby-sit next time for the baby Lisa Tessman was pregnant with!So my thanks to all who are continuing FEAST, by creatively, critically challenging and changing it.naomi

############################Many congratulations to Alison, Celia, and the rest of the new leadership team! I’m also grateful that the outcoming team, including Shay and the Program Co-Chairs, Tempest and Roksana, planned such a dynamic conference despite some bumps along the way (a pandemic and a hurricane, just to mention two). It was so good to see so many of you there, albeit remotely, and I wish I could have attended even more sessions. Courtney, your attention to zoom accessibility was amazing!
All my best,
Asha

So grateful to Shay for her longtime leadership, and to Courtney for making it possible for us to zoom in remotely, and to the program committee and speakers for creating conversations and experiences about something so essential right now.
Saba’s keynote was so powerful, and very meaningful for me.
I am very happy to see that FEAST is in good hands for the future, and I hope we will all be together again in 2023. There is truly nothing else like FEAST!

I want to echo what other zoom participants have said. As someone who could not be there in person, I was very appreciative of the opportunity to attend remotely. I am very much aware of how difficult it is to do hybrid meetings and don't underestimate the amount of labor that was needed to do this so well. Thank you so much to the organizers for this!
And thank you to all participants for your careful feminist thinking around issues of self-care. Having heard way too much from university administrators and other neo-liberal thinkers about self-care in recent years, I confess to having approached this theme originally with some jadedness. But—as I have come to expect from FEAST—the conference took the discussion in much needed and richer directions. I am deeply grateful for what I learned from many of you this past weekend.
Finally, thank you to those who have kindly agreed to take on the tasks of organizing the conference going forward. I look forward to seeing many of you online and on zoom again and, I hope, in person in 2025!

Agreed. And while there’s no substitute for all the fabulousness of in-person FEAST, with such an amazing and life-giving conference planned (thank you, organizers, for the much needed theme!), I very much appreciated the opportunity to at least get a flavor of the discussions/conversations/
debates/themes. The few sessions I did attend remotely supported and challenged me and my thinking, and helped me connect some dots in new and powerful ways, in true FEAST fashion.
Can’t wait for the publication and in the meantime, I have a whole roster of feminist ethicists’ work to dig into deeper…

I want to extend a special thank you to the organizers of the FEAST conference, and especially to Courtney Miller, who made it possible to attend the conference virtually. I attended many of the sessions through Zoom and got so much out of it. I am deeply impressed by how well you combined the in-person and Zoom components, and how you made it possible for Zoom participants to be full participants. Thank you so much for all the work you did to make this happen!
Thank you also to Shay for her fabulous leadership!
