AHA Council’s majority vetoed the resolution bc they have good reason to believe the membership would support it, and they suppressed a democratic decision-making process. Let us hope this is not a foretaste of anticipatory obedience to the current wave of authoritarianism.

“Fetterman… who co-sponsored the bill and said it ‘will ensure detention and deportations of criminal aliens before they can commit heinous crimes like what happened to Laken Riley’. His statement shows the willingness to trample the foundational tenets of human rights… 1/3

We are starting with 14th-century Africans’ possible (?) journeys across the Atlantic and ending with Maria de Cota in my Black Atlantic survey’s lecture tomorrow. 🤞🏾🙏🏾 that I can pull this off!

Social and economic justice are actually essential for public health. The organizing we continue to see for folks of color, the environment, anti-capitalism, migrants, the incarcerated, the victims of genocide and war are the conditions of possibility for a survivable world.

Those eggs disappearing, it's not hoarding, it's bird flu... meanwhile the gov't is cutting medicaid and SNAP. If there were a pandemic doomsday clock it would be one second to midnight and this is just one theory. We are primed for it whether its bird flu or another disease...

You remember when hand sanitizer disappeared off the shelves? The eggs feel like that to me and I don't even eat eggs! But, you know I'm just a historian, who has studied hundreds of epidemic disease outbreaks... I'm not a fortune teller and I hope I'm wrong....
