@CalStateLALib @CalStateLA So exciting! I will be teaching this 2-unit course during the first 5-week summer session. It's gonna be a fun balance of debates & discussion about research epistemologies and library research & citation skills. Look for summer enrollment date & add yourself to the class! 🎓✍🏾🤔

In bookstores August 29, 2023.

The latest: UC told us they will not be bargaining today.

Monstras! my favorite podcast! 🎃💀💘

[Journal of West Indian Literature @jwilonline]

I'm back with another thread! This time, we'll be looking at an important essay by Sylvia Wynter. In my estimation, no thinker has done more with and *for* the essay form than Wynter: an actress, dancer, playwright, novelist, writer, and towering intellectual.

#Mexico The National Indigenous Congress is calling for “global action against militarization & the capitalist & patriarchal war against the peoples of Mexico & the world, against the #EZLN & the Zapatista communities & against the orginal peoples of Mexico.”❤️🖤✊🏿💥🧵

[Kian Sharifi @KianSharifi]

A girls' school in Iran brought a member of the IRGC-run Basij paramilitary to speak to students. The girls welcomed the speaker by taking off their headscarves & chanting "get lost, Basiji".

Teenage girls have been at the forefront of protests for days.
