I’m really excited to be presenting new work at Brandeis next month! If you’re in the Boston area, come check it out. Also, since I’ll be in Boston for five days, I’m welcoming suggestions on cool things to do: feminist/queer bookstores, sex shops, cafes or art spaces, fun non-stuffy museums, etc.

Salt-N-Pepa in fight against record label for music rights In an ABC News exclusive, the pioneering music group tells "Good Morning America" co-Anchor Robin Roberts why they filed a lawsuit against Universal Music Group.

So many questions...what year did they sign the contract? Did someone else sign because they were under age? Are they fighting for the copyright to the songs *and* the sound recordings? Who arranged the music? Who owns that copyright? Don't know but hope they smash that (metaphoric) entail.

A Milford teen spent six days in ICE detention without sunlight or a shower. Life back at home isn’t what he expected. - The Boston Globe For the first few days back home, Marcelo Gomes da Silva barely left the house, his parents warning him to be cautious and to watch out for potential threats.

He still faces deportation and not everyone supported his release. There have been taunts on social media, people saying he deserved to be detained and thrown out of the country. Milford police escort him to destinations to and from his home for safety. #AbolishICE #FreePalestine
