One of my favorite collections of writing online: About 10,000 dreamy, detailed, tender and celestial comments inside the Grateful Dead archives. They sway with awe and appreciation. I wrote about them! Take a look, please https://t.co/VvPa0k5YFk
If your school Covid protocols are unsafe, I’d organize with colleagues, walk out and teach online. It will not only save lives but act as psychological prep for the mass disobedience we will soon need for mitigating climate chaos
Love that the whole piece is about the ways in which the US might attempt to unilaterally impose something widely considered illegal by the international community, and yet is not the "authoritarian" in the headline

Think about Cuba alongside Haiti, Puerto Rico. How citizens are nullified as political subjects, how they try to make their own agency when the state fails, how they organize themselves to survive & thrive, how they depend on global networks, how their precariousness is created.

US pundits & politicians are rushing to use protests in #Cuba as a pretext for imperialist intervention. I talk to @ASPertierra about the historical/political contexts surrounding the protests & how folks can navigate the media frenzy

On Biden's statements yesterday:
1. Internet is back in large measure, which doesn't mean can't be turned off again, but that POTUS sounded not up to speed.
Haiti and Cuba heavy on my mind. Deep long suffering by their peoples, whose fates are pawns in games of state &international power & capital. The people know, the people suffer. The wold sees them as shadows, as socially dead. They are not shadows. Their lives are our future.
