What are some things you wish you knew before walking into your first day of grad school? I see all of these acceptance letters and hope we can make a thread that can situate some of these expectations in reality.

Oriental Pantry is a beloved, small Korean family restaurant located in New Haven, run by Ms. Yoonock Kim.

This weekend, the restaurant was robbed. Luckily, Ms. Kim was not at the store at the time of the break-in.

"Unurbanist Assembly is an annual virtual 23-hour teach-in, confronting the legacy of racism in urban planning."

This feels like an event worth attending for anyone interested in systems work at the local, regional or state level. Go check it out!

Cool book alert!

"Jovan Scott Lewis takes seriously scammers’ attempts to redress colonial brutality by using scams—in their contradictory glory—as a means of laying claim to reparation."

This project at UIC is blowing my mind. So exciting to see an academic institution facilitating this kind of radical imagining around PIC abolition, economic democracy and climate justice. Strongly suggest following @BarbaraRansby and @staceyannsutton

@ananyaUCLA This is a really useful rec as someone who is just about to start planning grad school. Adding to my reading list now!

I'd just like to note that @NYCHousing has a job listing titled "Zombies Fellow". It actually looks kind of amazing.

Please join me for a very cool talk next Wednesday, Feb 24 at Kean University on Marginalized Spaces! I will talk about my book and how inequality is inscribed (and dismantled) through the built environment! Zoom link in the flier and the alt text of the image.

CT also has a catalog of products made with prison labor. The state website describes it as "voluntary inmate participation" designed to "reduce prison idleness, instill work ethic, and promote skill development." Right on the state website.

Attention 🚨 Connecticut residents: the redistricting (aka gerrymandering/redlining) process is THIS year. New district maps will be drawn by September. The maps will be in place for another TEN YEARS. We need to provide oversight and make this opaque process transparent!

@prisonculture I've been prepping for grad school and feeling stressed about going back into seminar-style discussions. The idea that I could apply the same prompts and skills I use in my current facilitation work is 🤯

[johnny shively @john_shively]

@carolinetanbee This is TOO GOOD

[johnny shively @john_shively]

@Maxwell_Dev @Maxwell_Dev SUPER informative - highly recommend

[johnny shively @john_shively]

I'm a slow reader, and trying to make it through an entire text can feel challenging for a lot of reasons. Proud of myself today for continuing to work through A People's History. Only 1/3 through, but now feels like one of many good times to celebrate 📖
