Also, the joy in which he approaches the day to day machinations of his job is such a refreshing and practical way to exist as a public servant.

Pour one out for the GOAT.

You can’t be a literary interviewer without reckoning with the work and influence of Michael Silverblatt.

Ours is not a large tribeβ€”especially not over time. Very few people devote decades to this oddball, obsessive niche. I should know. 1/

The mainstream news media will never call Trump explicity racist. They'll always dodge the allegation. That's because the white people running the joints need to believe that there is a distinction between donig racist things and promoting racist polices, versus being *personally* racist.

Abolish ICE.

There’s no reforming it.

There’s no compromise.

There’s only one way to rein in ICE’s terror campaign. Abolish it.

Donate to We Lost Everything to a Fire. Help My Family Rebuild., organized by Chloe Clark On January 24th, our childhood home burned down. Our parents lost 50… Chloe Clark needs your support for We Lost Everything to a Fire. Help My Family Rebuild.

On January 24th, my parents home burned down. They and my disabled brother escaped with only minor burns but they lost everything they've ever had.

I'm running a GoFundMe to help them recover and rebuild. I would be deeply grateful for any donations but also for any shares!

Letter From Minnesota: This Occupation is Strange But Familiar This is the second dispatch in our ongoing series of Letters From Minnesota in which we invite writers to share their experiences, as both witness and warning, of American authoritarianism. _______…

There are few poets I trust more who can capture the constant present of the shattered colonial real, the specter of the past, the looping nature of un-time, unreality, that is forced into a procession line of exit and erasure, than Chaun Webster. lithub.com/letter-from-...

I think a lot of us get hope wrong. Hope, I do not believe, is an emotion. In fact, hope makes space for lots of emotions to exist alongside it. You can DO hope scared, angry, sad etc...

Hope doesn't find us. We make hope through action and struggle. It's a practice of living and is re-made daily.

Call your reps. Let them know that if they vote for ICE funding, you will not vote for them ever again.

Representatives need to feel the heat. NO on ICE funding. No excuses.

Photo by Pierre Lavie. Yes this is me. And I threw my Leica. It landed on the bass plate with hardly a scratch. Another Photographer grabbed it along with my phone and I was able to track him later. I was held face down tear gas deployed right in front of me and pepper sprayed directly into the eye.

For years, many of us have tried to get people to care about criminalization with only limited success. We made the point that criminalization is fascism's fuel. And I really really hope that more people now understand this.
