Reading Peter Ackroyd's History of England. So wonderfully written and a brilliant integration of the divergent themes of culture, politics, religion, and foreign affairs.

YES.

This is the best articulation I've read of the two liberal sides in Palestine and Israel. A Palestinian writer and an Israeli writer exchange emails — and seek common ground washingtonpost.com/magazine/2021/…

Executive Programs graduates from NYU Stern’s Stern School of Business begin to enter the auditorium. Our first graduation since COVID-19. #Stern2021

The brass band plays “Land of Hope and Glory”. I’m a sucker for processions. These graduates have gone through so much to be here today. We are so so proud of them. #stern2021

Dean Sundaram addresses NYU’s first graduation ceremony in 2 years. Congrats #nyusternmsba #nyusternmsrm #NYUsternmsgf #nyusternemba dc and New York!!

⁦@RobertSalomon⁩ Vice Dean of Executive Programs talking with NYU Stern EP graduates—serious remarks, delightful anecdotes—Rob has it all.

Retweet if you support the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act. Happening now!

Who else thinks we need a vocal opponent of Citizens United on the Supreme Court?

The leak is a fascinating story about dysfunction at an increasingly politicized court. But don’t confuse it with THE story, which is taking away Constitutional rights from women.

If Collins and Murkowski want to compensate for their monumental f-up of believing Gorsuch, Kavanaugh and Comey Barrett about not overturning Roe, they could caucus with the 48 good Democrats, and vote to limit the filibuster on this issue alone. It’s how they clear their names.

For 160 years, #CincodeMayo has commemorated resilience and triumph in the face of overwhelming odds.  Generations after outnumbered Mexican patriots fought to a hard-won victory over French invaders, their valor remains a point of national pride in Mexico.
