Howard S. Becker, my dear former teacher and mentor died yesterday afternoon in his beloved San Francisco at 95. He rested peacefully at home and was in no pain. I will always remember Howie, and the careful instruction he gave to me as a young qualitative field worker. RIP.

“Elon Musk recently rebranded Twitter by replacing the iconic bird logo with a black-and-white ‘X’.
The @WWF, a Swiss-based international NGO, used a graphic to shed light on threats faced by real species.”

This will only be effective if EVERYONE refrains from tweeting (X-ing?) on August 1st a/k/a #TweetlessTuesday. Let's show the owner the POWER OF THE PEOPLE. Honestly, would it kill you to keep your thoughts to yourself for 1 damn day? Read a book! 👀 #August1stTweetOutDay

[Sgt Pepper @MzSgtPepper]

I am proposing that August 1st be a “Tweet Out” day where blue voters take the day off from tweeting. Think of the revenue lost for Twitter - X if we did that. Best way to affect change with a billionaire is to hit them in the wallet. RT if you are with me.

«Quand c’est les gilets jaunes, on parle du pouvoir d’achat, mais quand c’est les gars de banlieues, l’opinion pense que c’est des violences gratuites. Il y en a eu, mais pas que.»
Aux Jours, @BafoilP a contextualisé la colère légitime des quartiers➡️ https://t.co/mDmAXrAkd3

[Clément Guillou @JeuneGuillou]

A ce sujet : “Les banlieues pauvres et les bourgs et villages pauvres ont beaucoup de points communs par rapport à tout ce qui les sépare des territoires les plus riches, notamment en matière d’accès aux services publics et de budgets communaux.”

NEW: France’s riots may be subsiding, but their underlying causes persist

In France, immigrants face social exclusion, faring *far* worse than the native-born on almost every socio-economic indicator.

Far less integration than in UK, Germany even the US

The Supreme Court's decision on affirmative action “opens the door to numerous legal challenges of diversity programs across government, business and civil society,” writes @darrenwalker. https://t.co/5LKwGPsqX5

[Dr. Rashawn Ray @SociologistRay]

Just making sure people realize that #AffirmativeAction is banned in universities except military universities. Who is our country preparing for battle but “not the boardroom?” #SCOTUS we see you…

“Mercenaries and auxiliaries are useless and dangerous; and if one holds his state based on these arms, he will stand neither firm nor safe; for they are disunited, ambitious, and without discipline, unfaithful, valiant before friends, cowardly before enemies.”
Machiavelli, 1513

Wagner channel now saying ‘the civil war has officially begun’. But it is not at all clear if other military units have defected despite their claims.

[Theresa Fallon @TheresaAFallon]

👀 “In extraordinary developments, Russian security forces accused the founder of the notorious Wagner mercenary group of launching the country’s first coup attempt in three decades as he vowed a ‘march of justice’ against Russia’s army.” 🍿

[Jonathan Feingold @JPYGold]

still so disappointed that Harvard and UNC didn't zealously defend their own policies.
#AffirmativeAction & all it represents deserves more than these lukewarm ambivalent advocates.

Alain Touraine, l'un des pères de la sociologie française, est mort. Il avait 97 ans. Des usines Renault aux gilets jaunes en passant les mines chiliennes, ce grand penseur de l’action collective a scruté la société pendant plus de 60 ans https://t.co/9IwzSkm7jd

[Jeffrey M. Berry @JeffreyMBerry]

If SCOTUS rules against affirmative action who will fill the slots made available by fewer minority admissions? Convincing case by @nkwarikoo that it will be whites, not Asians. Whites have the right resources for taking advantage
