This job asks for a cover letter, teaching, DEI, and personal statements. 1-2 pages each. So not including a writing sample or CV, 4-8 pages per app. Assuming a modest pool of 150 applicants: 600-1200 pages of reading. Not one person on the hiring committee is reading all that.

So the fancy French daycare open from 8-3pm for 3200 is “language immersion” but the spanish-speaking daycare run by four Dominican women down the block that charges a little less than half that and is open regular hours is not. Obvi.

Years ago, I struggled with visas Today, I see my students struggling with visas Unfair, unjust, inequitable systems are still in place

The August 1965 issue of Révolution Africaine (Algeria's 🇩🇿 revolutionary newspaper),confiscated by the authorities after Boumédiène's coup. The cover features images of the LA Watts Rebellion + invokes James Baldwin's "The Fire Next Time." (See Christian Phéline's recent book).
