If you love poetry, I suggest trying to sell a car on Facebook Marketplace. Where else can you find bars like this?

It's been a demoralizing few weeks for the UTD 21 w rising student suffering, intransigent uni admin, and declining ally support. But we are energized by an inspiring Dallas Peace & Justice Center ceremony that named the UTD 21 "Justice-Seekers of the Year" and have hope more help is on the way.
A framed certificate from the Dallas Peace & Justice Center that names the UTD 21 as "Justice Seeker of the Year" for 2024.

Big mail day! Whitney's research has transformed how I teach the history of slavery. It's the best way to get students to understand and remember the balance of oppression and agency--see esp chap 2's material culture analysis of a walking stick and cowrie shells
