THE STRANGER NEXT DOOR, a small town’s fight over LGBTQ+ rights that reveals how the far right weaponizes social issues to declare whose lives are and aren’t valuable, is “subtle, textured, and urgent.”—Judith Butler https://t.co/B5FwAmwhd9

Tomorrow! We'll be asking questions like: Are all religious ideas dangerous? When we try to strip them of the dangers, do we also strip them of their power to transform? And what does "religious freedom" really mean in the wake of recent Supreme Court rulings?

[Amy Miller Caldwell @AmyMilCaldwell]

#SBLAAR20 Lots of folks I'll miss seeing in person this year-- but come to the Dec. 8 book launch for Rachel Mikva's Dangerous Religious Ideas. More tweets forthcoming on our recent religion titles, and maybe cat pictures.

If you're interested in a thoughtful, nuanced, and beautifully written nonfiction book, this is it. It speaks to some of the issues of our time without being a polemic.

Captures exactly what I was going for, a great summary of the book and my position.

The Princess and the Prophet was just excerpted in LitHub. You can read a chunk here: https://t.co/vAiEBJcJBQ…/ If you want to see an exhibit of primary sources & photographs and see how I pieced together the mystery of the Black Muslims, see https://t.co/WtOVQGHIjQ

[New Scientist @newscientist]

Science, and society, has not moved on as much as we like to think from ideas like eugenics and the racialised scientific ideas that were popular before the second world war. Watch our interview with #Superior author and journalist @AngelaDSaini: https://t.co/csKXDvqRxv

@parul_sehgal If you need to cleanse your palate after having to read Murray, I recommend Angela Saini’s excellent books on lingering ideas about female inferiority and biological racism in science.
