#Guantanamo as a Concentration Camp
@andreapitzer on #Gitmo's legacy: "we have a place where there has been #torture, we have a place where there has been riots, we have a place where there have been people held without trial for more than 20 years. https://t.co/srgLgVcNSO
Amway, DeVos family, John Birchers, Russian money, delusional politics while carrying a Bible... @andreapitzer on Amway's decades-long influence on her mother—and American politics: https://t.co/REf6Gwx4El
"It was 1978. I didn’t realize that this was one of those moments, like Waterloo or Watergate, after which nothing would be the same." I wrote about how my family lost everything after joining Amway, and how characters from my childhood reappeared later in the White House.
The Concentration Camps (CCamp) Dataset is finally out at JPR! This started as a research project back in 2019 and became my dissertation. I'm super proud of the work @theBraith and @Dan_E_Solo put into this - I'm looking forward to others finally getting to use these data!
It was an honor to talk to the brilliant @andreapitzer about my upcoming book, There Is No Place for Us, the roots of America’s homelessness crisis, and the *real* solutions—not carceral or punitive ones—that would offer a way out of this disaster.
