Do you want to tell us why they withdrew their books from consideration, PEN America? Is it perhaps because of your horrific stance on the genocide (a word you still haven’t used) in Gaza?

George Polk was an American journalist for CBS who was murdered during the Greek Civil War, in 1948. It is a betrayal that the award named in his honor be given to a publication that more than any other helped fuel a genocide that has particularly targeted journalists.

This is the horror that the US is funding

We HAVE to build a mvmnt that has the power to shut industries down thru strikes & work stoppages to stop things like this in the future

As of now- the most we can do is scream about it. Even then, many fear their livelihoods if they do

I have blocked two men I do not know
who were taking up too much of my time. I wish them well in finding other people they do not know to tie themselves into knots of misery while leaving me out of it. Focus on the celestial, forget the terrestrial—& like the moon, keep it moving

Excited for this online conversation with Victoria Law at the NYPL, 'Till Every Prison is a Library.' Grateful for all the work she does, especially the generous care she took to mail 20 copies of The Viral Underclass to individuals in prisons around the country.

If I had David Simon's millions, I simply wouldn't waste my time arguing w [checks notes] ME abt how I, a professor, talk to other profs about how MAAAAYBE we shouldn't hold work events w students IN OUR HOUSES. I'd just sit on my cash & never think abt university politics.

A ShotSpotter lobbyist helped draft the order pro-ShotSpotter alders recently introduced. Most of these alders, who call for “more transparency regarding SoundThinking/ShotSpotter,” are using their unofficial email addresses to work with the company behind the scenes.
