While independent bookstores are giving out free whistles, hosting protest sign making events, and donating proceeds to mutual aid, Amazon is *checks notes* providing technology that assists ICE in their terrorizing of communities.

Independent bookstores deserve your support. Amazon does not.

ICE is sending these kids to the concentration camp in Dilley, Texas, where they're preparing to have so many children that they're opening a new school there. They're actively hiring teachers now. I reported on it last month. We have to get people out of there.

The exhibits about slavery at the President’s House in Philadelphia’s Independence National Historical Park have been removed amid pressure from the Trump admin www.inquirer.com/politics/nat...

Anyone aware of America's relationship to its own indigenous peoples would strive not to repeat the past. In light of current events, we invite our readers to learn more about the autonomous territory of Greenland and the vibrant culture of its Indigenous peoples.

Absolutely right.

AI might be able to summarize (poorly) what we currently know, but a major goal of historical research is to find the hidden surprises out there.

Let me illustrate …

I keep saying this but no one is connecting the dots. The war is to satisfy legal preconditions for mass removal *domestically* of Latinos (i.e., suddenly a lot of people are going to be “Venezuelan” for purposes of removal). This is 100% Stephen Miller…oil claim is to make grandpa go along

Can’t get into details about the specific use case, but thank you so much this is super helpful!

@emilymbender.bsky.social looking for a really good, convincing article on why generative AI should stay the f away from academic writing to share with someone at my publishing company who is unlikely to read a whole book - any suggestions?

Fun facts: your AI-generated peer review is totally useless to both the publisher and author; it’s theft of their intellectual property; and it’s obvious when you’re doing it. If you don’t have time to write it yourself, don’t accept the review.

It was just a week-long ride not that far from UB but still an amazing experience!

Hoping to snag a copy! Had the opportunity to ride in Mongolia this summer

Imagine if sociologists had this kind of collective effervescence

They really buried the book exhibit as deep underground as possible
