Beyond the pages and projects, what we’ve shared with Leopoldina is trust, friendship, and a sense of belonging in something larger than ourselves. We are deeply grateful for all she has brought into our lives.

Chad Edwards @chadedwards.bsky.social · 17/09/2025

For me, it’s been a privilege to lend support in small ways, but the real joy has been witnessing their collaboration — the conversations, the breakthroughs, the sheer energy of two brilliant minds in dialogue.

Chad Edwards @chadedwards.bsky.social · 17/09/2025

Tonight I’m reflecting on what an incredible presence Leopoldina Fortunati has been in our lives for the past 12 years. Nearly every week, she has been a steady collaborator and writing partner with Autumn, and together they’ve built a body of work rooted in creativity, rigor, and vision.

As an #hmc community, we need to be thinking about how to support our friends and colleagues who are nervous to travel to the US and ways to support them if they don’t feel safe doing so.

It's not safe for any of my friends to come to the US right now for #ica25. If you do, delete your phone, no social media, etc. Honestly, by the time summer hits, it probably won't be safe for any of us. www.wsj.com/politics/pol...
