Hello, Bluesky!

Using this first post to say that for any educators using Dreamland Burning in Oklahoma (or any other place where officials are afraid of real discussions about complex history), my hour-long virtual visits are now free. Y’all are heroes.

In that fun and exciting moment in planning for the World of Dylan where we begin seeing proposals come over the transom while lining up some unique keynote events. We expect to begin sharing news about the program shortly after the paper proposal deadline closes on 28 February.
