I’m super thrilled to share the cover of my forthcoming book! Rutgers University Press

Russia's Federal Archival Agency has published a collection of documents "On the Historical Unity of Russians and Ukrainians" to substantiate Putin's wild allegations made in his 2021 article of the same name. A 🧵you don't want to read:

Little known fact: Although much has been written about America's PAST treatment of Black veterans, few people are aware that tens of thousands of Black people who served in the US Armed Forces are technically and legally excluded from Veterans Day. A thread (and a story)

My article "Schopenhauer's Critique of the State" out tomorrow (Nov 14) in The Schopenhauerian Mind (Routledge) edited by David Bather Woods and Timothy Stoll: routledge.com/The-Schopenhau…

The war is tough. And the mood in Kyiv reflects the reality. Yesterday, the Kyiv School of Economics held its annual fundraiser. Many influential people attended: 7 ministers, many from the Ukrainian Forbes list. I spoke to them privately. And this is what they said. 1/

Putin's appeasers promise that Russia will stop as soon as Ukraine surrenders cities like Kherson and Zaporizhzia and disarms itself. One may wonder why Russia's Ministry of Internal Affairs would introduce a new license plate area code – 188 RUS – for the entire Kharkiv region.

Many thanks to the designers Cornell University Press for producing this amazing cover! Can't wait to share the book with you this June 📚

It’s out! 🎉 With a brilliant foreword by Alessandro Portelli, my book analyses how memory of the 1973 Rogo di Primavalle has been constructed & contested from the time of the attack to today (spoiler: Meloni is big on it). Available in soft back, too! link.springer.com/book/10.1007/9…

Shooting just happened at The Trump rally

The emotional whiplash between Joe's withdrawal on Saturday, to realizing we're going to elect the 1st woman of color as our next President is probably closest you'll ever get to knowing what it feels like to make the jump to hyper-space. 🤯
