Sociology world mourns after hit-and-run driver on Grand Avenue kills legendary labor scholar Michael Burawoy was struck while walking inside the crosswalk near Children’s Fairyland.

I saw Michael Buroway speak at an American Sociological Assocation meeting in the early 2000s, sharing his vision of public sociology. It was inspiring. The man deeply cared about connecting scholarship to working people's lives.

Rest in power, Michael Buroway.

We say that people don't notice constitutional regime collapse because it comes on too slowly but I'm not sure how much faster it could be happening; we are literally at concentration camps on day 9.

Octavia E. Butler taught us to choose life and sanctity over despair. Each day I thank Panchamama and the community around me. We are all connected. #OctaviaButler

Everyone Who Was Supposed to Protect You From This Failed Miserably Donald Trump will now be the president again. A colossal failure by every Republican, Democratic, legal, corporate, and media institution got us here.

“It was a catastrophic top-to-bottom failure that many millions of people at home and abroad will be living with, now and long after Trump is no longer leader of a nominally free world.

Every institution you may have believed had value revealed itself to be for-sale or out-to-lunch.”
