@AnneliseOrleck1 @JeffSharlet @dartmouth Sorry that you experienced this brutality. Solidarity.

@JeffSharlet @dartmouth Those cops were brutal to me. I promise I did absolutely nothing wrong. I was standing with a line of women faculty in the their 60s to 80s trying to protect our students. I have now been banned from the campus where I have taught for 34 years.

I do wonder how long it will take to see the broader economic and societal impact of Dobbs—when women begin to disappear more from work, achievement, and public life, and when those who are left begin to feel lonelier, more isolated, deprived of camaraderie and mentorship.

Thought-provoking read. "Survivors with stories which can't be effectively ‘sold’ are left out in the cold. Survivors with ‘useful’ stories are welcomed, but only if they are willing to become prof storytellers of suffering." @joelquirk @BeyondSlavery

@dsallentess Growing the House might seem absurd or unfeasible, but it has plenty of precedent, @dsallentess writes.

"And a closer connection between representatives and constituents was envisioned by the Founders as a vital design principle of our system." https://t.co/NYokQhr1Cm

@maryrziegler @GreerDonley I found myself giving an emergency Comstock lecture last week (shaking my head as tears fall in my coffee).

🧵Want to share a bit more about this incubator and how it came about! As @TLeFlouria, @DainaRameyBerry & I were dreaming up this series, we were thinking about the books that we hoped & dreamed of publishing. We thought of all the folks we knew that had amazing projects...
