With 124 cameras per 1,000 residents, Atlanta is the most surveilled city in the United States. But because the Atlanta Police Department claims that releasing the locations of these cameras will lead to terrorism, we’ve not been able to map their locations... Until now.

With help from our friends at Atlanta Community Press Collective, we've mapped just the 4.2% of these 60,000+ cameras that are owned and operated by the city to give insight into the pervasive geography of surveillance here in Atlanta. Read more 👇👇 mappingatlanta.org/2025/06/09/cit…

"Seven Denver schools closed earlier this month after the board voted in November to shutter them due to declining enrollment."

NYT really selling Rahm Emanuel as “thoughtful liberal governance” like he didn’t shut down public schools, try to dismantle the Chicago Teachers Union and privatize public education…

Care workers in Toronto are occupying immigration buildings demanding permanent residency (Canada had a program but only allowed a few thousand access).

Half of Vienna lives in lovely, subsidized homes. Rents are low. And these buildings fight climate change. Meet green social housing: climate policy you can touch. NPR's great new story & Climate & Community Institute's new research show how it works in Vienna, could work here 🧵

🚨 New paper out in Urban Studies Journal 🚨 It discusses the notion of commonist urbanization, a spatial force aimed at the reproduction of the common rather than capital. Rejecting defensive tactics, commonism is framed as a totalizing principle spanning multiple scales. [Link below]

Excited to finally get my copy of the new book from 🍋 Grower & Chief Squeezer, Tom Clark, and Adam Glynn. The data these guys put together is a real advance in the field, and looking forward to reading what they did and found.

Important to understand that Universal cannot close Vare. Only Philadelphia Board of Education can do that--by public vote. It is a #PhlEd neighborhood public school. inquirer.com/education/univ… via @phillyinquirer
