Humanity finds itself in a quandary regarding Artificial Intelligence #AI and the “risk of extinction@ because of our lack of investment in, and understand of, the humanities.

[NEH Chair @NEHchair]

A huge welcome to the new(ish) exec. directors of the state & jurisdictional humanities councils @Cal_Humanities, @HumanidadesPR, @MaineHumanities, & @mihumanities who came to @NEHgov headquarters today.

We are thrilled to have you as our partners in supporting the #humanities.

[Rick Noguchi @RickNoguchi1]

I am incredibly honored to have the opportunity to serve CA as the President and CEO of California Humanities, especially at a time when the humanities are needed most in developing empathy in individuals and fostering civic dialogue in communities.

Found this New York Times clip my dad saved from when “discrimination against Orientals” was solved and anti-Asian hate became a thing of the past, back in 1970

Question: If @SouthwestAir cancelled 80% of its flights, how did all of the luggage make it to their destinations before the passengers who are stranded?

[Rick Noguchi @RickNoguchi1]

As a former A lister, I have lost complete faith in @SouthwestAir.

[Rick Noguchi @RickNoguchi1]

Do all airlines abandon their customers when they can’t accommodate their connecting flight back home stranding them in Denver, or just @SouthwestAir?

[NEH Chair @NEHchair]

I was deeply moved by the opportunity to stamp the Ireicho at the @jamuseum, which contains the name of every individual of Japanese ethnicity incarcerated in U.S. relocation camps during WWII.

Thank you to @RickNoguchi1 for this immense honor.

[Rick Noguchi @RickNoguchi1]

@NEHchair @jamuseum It was such an honor to have you visit @jamuseum! We are grateful for your leadership in giving an opportunity to a culturally specific museum!

[Rick Noguchi @RickNoguchi1]

Shelly Lowe, Chair of the National Endowment for the Humanities, visited @jamuseum and stamped the Ireicho, a sacred book of 125,248 names of Japanese Americans who were unjustly incarcerated by the US government during WWII. @NEHgov
