So they ban my book from young readers, confuse me with @oprah , fail to specify what parts of my poetry they object to, refuse to read any reviews, and offer no alternatives…Unnecessary #bookbans like these are on the rise, and we must fight back 👊🏿 DONATE here: https://t.co/QFjBGwYDCL

weird to have both best picture and best director winners unavailable on physical media, and with no confirmed upcoming releases globally, due to both being bought/produced by streaming services; not only a blow to collectors but also to libraries that circulate to the public

65% of college students report skipping buying a required textbook due to costs. Increase access, student success, and equity in your classroom by adopting Open Educational Resources and eliminating textbook cost burden on students! #oerweek

[Zine Union Catalog @zinecat]

We poured a lot of time and energy into writing an NEH grant, and we didn't get it. Now we're trying to raise money the old fashioned way: finding a zine-loving eccentric millionaire. Anyone got $65K lying around you'd like to see used to further work on a zine union catalog?

@maggiepjones College students often cannot define a magazine as a source - they don’t know what it is!

I spent a LOT of time this morning with this article. If you care about music and racism at all, you should too.

May I please get 2 followers to copy and re-post this tweet? I'm trying to demonstrate that someone is always listening.

@rgay Not sure why the 4 grand slams need to make a joint statement when it's an issue (right now) with one player and one tournament. If this is a global grand slam issue - then may be they should consider that press conferences are outdated and cause undue wear / tear on the players.

Bernie Sanders became a meme, put the meme of himself on a sweatshirt, sold out, sold tshirts and stickers, raised $1.8 mil for charity, made GETTY IMAGES donate their cut, and another company donate 50 coats.

That's the guy the political/media establishment said is out touch.

President Trump was playing golf in Virginia when Joe Biden became the president-elect.
