Birmingham City University urged not to axe Black Studies MA and target 5 Black members of staff for redundancy. “In the US there is an attack on Black intellectual thought, in the UK there is so little in higher ed that the problem is erasure" https://t.co/nLpUu1vEB3

I don't post here much anymore but this...this is special. I started with nothing. Grew up in a trailer in the shadow of the South

What I found especially intriguing was that Under the Cherry Moon is set in the South of France, and that people discussed its connection to the Harlem Renaissance. 個人的にはプリンスの映画Under the Cherry Moonの設定(南仏)またハーレムルネサンスとの関係の議論が面白かったです。

Thank you so much, Campbellsville U! I gave two talks: a campus-wide lecture 🎤 and a literature class📖. I met the President, faculty, and many shining students. A group of Japanese 🇯🇵 students came to support me, sitting towards the front! Campbellsville大で授業と講演しました

アメリカ建国250周年（America250）の一環としてKYテイラー郡公立図書館で、WPA下の連邦作家計画（FWP）について講演を行いました。ジョン＆アラン・ローマックスとジョン・W・ワークが初期ブルース音楽家たちを記録した文脈でFWPを捉え直しその流れがボブ・ディランへとつながったことを示しました。

[Maiko Mine みねまいこ @minemai]

As part of America250, I delivered a talk on the Federal Writers’ Project at Taylor County Public Library in KY. Sharing another dimension that the FWP can be understood within the same context in which early blues singers are eventually connected to Bob Dylan—was super fun!

Dorothea Lange used her camera to capture life in America during the Great Depression.

Best known for her work with the Farm Security Administration (FSA), Lange documented the lives of sharecroppers, migrant workers, and displaced families during the 1930s. Her images brought national attention to communities that were often overlooked and helped shape the future of documentary photography.

Today, NYPL holds about 40,000 photographs from the FSA collection, taken during the 1930s and 1940s by Lange and other photographers.
