Happy Pride month! Hankering to think more critically about queer joy and the abolitionist history of pride? My and @alphabetical’s article is hot off the press in this terrific special issue on Queering Municipal Governance ✨🎉
10/ @MTuresky and @alphabetical conceptualize spatialized queer joy, whereby people find pleasure in expressing their queer identity in public space as a way of disrupting heteropatriarchal and white supremacist cultures. https://t.co/KkDS671rfG

They don’t have a “feed the hungry” unit or a “heat the cold” unit, or a “house the homeless” unit, but of course they have an “anti-looting” unit. Property is always priority. https://t.co/9smErQRwEK
For any of you that thought the academy was some sacrosanct space to idle about & contemplate the meaning of life, pls wake the fuck up. It is a workplace with bosses and workers. This flex is about power and their efforts to break the will of the workers on campus.
I wrote about the privatization project that has turned the public University of California into real estate speculator, and how rent-burdens have shaped the academic worker strike from the start.
