A delight to work with @jonnynunu & @AneeshaCapur, as well as the excellent editors @SSIReview, to bring this important framework to light. Funders should support learning & evaluation to ensure efficacy before scaling, for greater impact.
“It is often challenging for early-stage #nonprofits to focus on efficacy first.” John Newsome, @AneeshaCapur & @igRubinov (@public_equity, @Dovetail_Labs) encourage funders to reconsider their hesitancy to fund learning and evaluation. https://t.co/IiLiEyD2Wq
These erasure poems are profound and unsettling. Phenomenal use of the modality.
Photo from collaboration between @gracehzhou @_dilsper lends haunting air
Inspired by Hartman’s (2008) ‘critical fabulation,’ Grace Zhou (@gracehzhou) shares a practice in speculative poetics with two erasure poems from the archives of the Chinese Railroad Workers in North America Project at Stanford University.

@AlexaHagerty has set the bar for crafting ethnography - and the deep research it espouses - into glorious, profound prose. Still Life with Bones is a masterpiece. NYT ran several pieces on it - this one captures more about Alexa’s process
In “Still Life with Bones,” the anthropologist Alexa Hagerty describes her work with teams searching for Latin America’s disappeared. The process taught her to see the dead with a forensic eye — and to listen to the living. https://t.co/NinxyqONxO

My book is coming into the world with the help of many wonderful literary midwives. Moving to see the powerful stories shared with me of "memory, grief, justice, witness, science, ritual" pass into other hands, where they belong.
"Continuing to practice ethnography means not only acknowledging its historical baggage as a colonial 'technique of knowing,'" writes @gracehzhou, "but also wrestling with its contemporary shadows that use knowledge for exploitation."

@PhilFriedrich The more apt comparison would be ransacking of the presidential residence in Ukraine after the successful conclusion to the Maidan protests. The long tail of that popular revolt is still being waged.
@Kobe26986174@RobMahoney The point of the article is that it's not normal. He could've just kept "wasting minutes" but instead Curry, Kerr and Draymond forced him to rise to his potential. Not everyone gets the opportunity, or seizes it (look at his former teammate Karl Towns in the playoffs this year)
