“My first poem and it worked, still works, I still remember that sky. Poem as the gift of memory. Mnemosyne. Mother.”

Indiana’s new law — House Bill 1300 — against bail funds, which takes effect 7/1, is a direct response to 2020 protests. It is intended to keep people, and especially protestors, in jail longer.🧵

Anyone with a “violent” charge, past or current, is ineligible for bail by a certified person or organization. 5/6

I am really relieved to say that, after 4 years of contingent labor at UC Berkeley, I'm starting a TT job at Indiana University in the Informatics Dept, for social histories & ethics of AI. I remain in solidarity with contingent faculty and graduate student colleagues 1/3
