The biggest reason government officials aren't giving any specifics about the criteria by which these arrests and deportations are selected, is that the criteria is "pro-Israel think-tanks and advocacy organizations created lists of troublesome individuals and gave them to us."

Her crime was writing an op/ed. Her visa was valid, but she wrote an op/ed

It appears the Trump Admin is shutting down the Dept of Education's International and Foreign Language Education unit, which funds and administers University and graduate foreign language study throughout the country and overseas. If true, an act of national sabotage. www.ed.gov/about/ed-off...

I’ve had several FLAS grants (2019-2020) but haven’t received any info. This is disappointing but sadly not surprising

Omg that’s the first time I’ve read a specifics about scurvy and omg it’s horrifying

Just got bit by a dog in a wealthy neighborhood on my run yesterday...the coyotes are on to something it seems

We have a similar week in May! 4 birthdays in 3 days and no multiples either…

A bit late, but wanted to give a big shoutout to @nellstra.bsky.social for visiting my US-Latin American Hist course to talk about the Sanctuary movement! The students learned a ton and loved it!!

25,00 jobs and 2.26B in NIH funding here in North Carolina…

We do a slightly different variation— the superb owl party! Everybody comes with owl art or facts and we all learn about owls! (Yes, I’m married to an ornithologist…)

He’s doing well now! Hopefully neutered life suits him as well as before!

Our tuxie Sylvester also had to miss his breakfast on Monday and his day only got worse from there ✂️✂️✂️

I actually thought for real this was about the university.

Here’s UNC’s response, which I see as misleading at best and outright lies at worst—This is not normal.

Thanks so much for sharing! Do you have any advice for potential applicants?

Had a similar experience last year when someone hit and ran my parked car. The garage had the footage including the tags of the car but needed the police to request it. It took multiple calls, a visit to the police precinct and almost a month for them to simply request the footage.

Historians of Bluesky!

I'm looking for intro reading recs for undergrads on Venezuelan history-- I've already got Velasco's Barrio Rising but am coming up blank on anything else. What do you rec? TYIA!

I’m teaching a J-term class on the history of US Latin American relations and we just covered the secession of Panama from Colombia and the US acquisition of rights to the Panama Canal Zone 🙃🙃🙃

It’s wild to see Duke poaching a quarterback for $8 million for two years when they’re barely budging on giving the union a pay increase for the 2,500 grad students that actually perform the core educational and research functions of university www.cbssports.com/college-foot...

Michel-Rolph Trouillot’s Silencing the Past has got to be up there as well!

Thanks so much! It looks like your DMs are closed?

So fun!! For some reason there’s a statue of Joel Poinsette in my hometown but I’ve never figured out the connection!
