Perry: This St. Patrick’s Day, don’t forget Irish music’s anti-fascist roots
Dropkick Murphys, the iconic Irish American punk band, are headlining a free block party March 6 near where Alex Pretti was killed by immigration agents, contributing columnist David M. Perry writes.
NEW “We’re celebrating a tradition that is at its core about resisting occupation and maintaining community in the face of horrors. You can’t keep politics out of Irish music. No one should try, for two reasons. First, it’s ahistorical. Second, Minnesotans are ready for a big anti-fascist party.”

If it's a licensed profession, then the AI Chatbot should not be able to do it because there's no accountability.

One of my favorite things about the new Katamari game is its music, which genuinely has the best soundtrack in the series and evolves the sound of the series while reflecting the modern state of Japanese music
It's been on my mind for MONTHS and I finally got to talk about it

Sesame Street - I Am Somebody
I show this in almost every single class I teach to demonstrate the simple values behind the dignity of all people and how at odds our culture's norms are to the idea. I have cried over how hard it is to believe myself when I repeat after Rev. Jackson, "even if I make a mistake, I am somebody." RIP.

Got mine at 45 - came back clean. Wish I could’ve gone at 40 as well.
Semi-relatedly: shingles is kicking my ass this past week. Not eligible for the vaccine yet - missed by a couple years. At this point every visit to the Dr is: what fun new life-saving thing will my insurerer let me get today?

A man wearing a homemade casual shirt with images from the Flint Sit Down Strike as a pattern. The pocket is black with the words “Striking Flint” and the Hollandspiele logo embroidered in white, and the buttons are plastic gears.
A set of four cards depicting a map of factories and streets in the board game Striking Flint. Red, gray, yellow, and blue Meeples are placed on spaces on the cards, as are tokens representing police, money, and violent thugs opposing the striking Meeples.
Today’s the 89th anniversary of the end of the Flint Sit-Down Strike, which led to GM recognizing the @uaw.org for the first time.
I remembered to wear my shirt with images from the strike and plug my game about it, Striking Flint, on the actual date this year.

Relooted challenges who gets to own and tell African history
Relooted, a game about freeing African artifacts from Western museums and collections, interrogates history through sharply designed heists. Read our review.
Relooted is not only a neat puzzle game with grand heists and a charming cast, but also a challenge to who owns and tells African history. Plus, it's one of the few games to capture Africa's diversity well, pulling artifacts from all across the continent. My review:

Democratizing the arts looks like universal income, low-barrier grants for both emerging and working artists, well-funded municipal arts & recreation programs, vibrant third spaces, and a well-funded public school system with progressive curriculum.
Not a free pass for corporate-owned slop engines.

The Wright Museums Instagram page is HILARIOUS. Think The Office but it's the staff at a Museum for Black History. Better believe this is on my list of places to visit.

“We are a Minneapolis 2nd grade Brownie Troop of 12 including trans and neurodiverse youth and 75% BIPOC kids. We want to go to summer camp and try horseback riding! During the current ICE occupation we need your support more than ever...”

Perry: Abolish ICE? How about DHS altogether.
"We have models for how to structure federal immigration oversight that doesn't rely on an unaccountable masked secret police force running rampant in our streets," David M. Perry writes.
Abolish DHS. If you can imagine a world before Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, you can imagine a world without the Department of Homeland Security. My latest at @startribune.com. (gift link)

Snow is nature's urban planner: It can show us what parts of the roadway drivers don't use — and what can be reclaimed for pedestrians.
Post your photos and videos of all the #sneckdowns you see and tag us and @mayor.nyc.gov so today's winter wonderland can inspire better streets year-round!
