I chatted with Javier Arbona-Homar about our books for the @abusablepast! Huge thanks to the Radical History Review, especially Marisol LeBrón and @ANaomiPaik and to our editor, Kingsley, for inviting us to have this conversation. https://t.co/JjrsVjHzFn

On June 11-12, I’m joining @TheOpEdProject's #WriteToChangeTheWorld workshop, because this is how we change who writes history. There are still spaces available, so if you're interested, register here (scholarships available): https://t.co/Tm4SAeh3wA

“We need to get better at treating this like a business,” Acting ICE Director Todd Lyons said, explaining he wants to see a deportation process “like [Amazon] Prime, but with human beings.”

Many thanks in particular to the nuclear justice activists and affected community members from last year’s Nuclear Remembrance conference in Springdale, Arkansas (hosted by @MEInonprofit) for their insights and suggestions that strengthened this piece.

What does it feel like to live through an atomic bombing of your city or a period of sustained nuclear testing in your community? Can—and should—nuclear maps try to “transpose” those feelings and experiences onto a new place for advocacy or educational purposes?

The people who lead @Columbia University have done a lot of shameful things during this last year and a half, but refusing to even comment on DHS detaining and disappearing one of their students, a legal permanent resident, is so despicable I can’t see straight.

Going to @MYBISA in Belfast this June for the first time, to present in a session with the Colonial, Postcolonial and Decolonial Working Group. Who all's going? What are you working on? What's rad at BISA? Looking forward to connecting.

@grundrza @VersoBooks This is beautiful. Thank you.

[Emily Mitchell-Eaton @eMitchellEaton]

@radioagainst @colgateuniv Thanks, @radioagainst! I really enjoyed the conversation.

[Emily Mitchell-Eaton @eMitchellEaton]

Thanks to C.S. Soong at @radioagainst for a great chat about my book! We discussed the militarized management of racial outsiders in Arkansas and how "white towns" under settler colonialism are not natural but rather forged through violence. Listen to the podcast below @GOJST_UGA

Migrants in Ciudad Juárez who were waiting for their 1 pm CBP1 parole appointments learned 20 minutes ago that the app has shut down & those appointments are no longer valid.

It was a pleasure talking with Miranda Melcher at @NewBooksNetwork about my new book, New Destinations of Empire: Mobilities, Racial Geographies, and Citizenship in the Transpacific United States (@GOJST_UGA UGA Press).

Also want to echo @ackocher's recommendation to check out Brittany Lauren Wheeler and @meaganharden_'s excellent Law & Space article, called “Negotiating Their Future: A Marshallese Geography of U.S. Policy" https://t.co/9sYwn4sws6

[Emily Mitchell-Eaton @eMitchellEaton]

Thanks, @ackocher, for the shout-out to New Destinations of Empire! Austin Kocher's work is indispensable for anyone trying to make sense of the contemporary U.S. (and beyond) immigration system, particularly immigration enforcement, detention, and border policing.
