Days before the Cornell story went viral, a student of mine set off a personal security alarm by mistake in class. Overwhelming, many of my male students simply could not understand why she had it. Many of my female students couldn’t grasp their lack of comprehension. We are living in two worlds.

Just read @katemanne.bsky.social ‘s fantastic piece in The Cut about the Cornell rape and she points out that students protesting conditions in Gaza were treated more harshly than the rapists and holy shit, this detail
One of these students was my own advisee, and having supported her throughout the the months-long case, I can state with confidence that she did nothing wrong. Moreover, she happens to be deaf and was suspended in part for being “unreasonably loud.” Privacy consideration

In the past week, I’ve talked to two separate groups of friends/neighbors in town concerned for a loon baby. This sweet hatchling came late. It’s nearing migration time & we’re all hoping it’ll have the strength to go the distance 🤞🏻🙏🏻

People are not high-risk. Situations are dangerous. Predators are dangerous. Housing instability, criminalization, poverty, isolation, and institutional indifference create danger. A woman does not become less missing because her life was complicated.

Deep dives like this really put into perspective what Chief Justice Rehnquist was doing in 2000 when he resurrected the Court’s precedents of the 1870s and 1880s, writing that their authors “had intimate knowledge and familiarity with the events surrounding the adoption of the Fourteenth Amendment.”

“We all came together in unity & supported America because freedom is the best & America is the best…” Sir, no, that’s not what happened at all. Fear & ignorance bred racism & Islamophobia. Politicians used it to justify infringing on civil liberties. POTUS said to shop “or the terrorists win.” 🙄

Ruby Bridges was 6-years-old when she stepped into the history books. Bravely accompanied by her mother, she was the first Black child to desegregate an all-white school in the South. It was not long ago… Today is her birthday. She is still with us. She is 72. Happy birthday, Ruby Bridges 💜

Lindsey Clancy sought out so much help with her postpartum depression. If a white woman within driving distance of Boston’s “medical Wall Street” can’t get the treatment she needs, consider what that means for all kinds of mothers all over the country.

"We cannot do everything, and there is a sense of liberation in realizing that. This enables us to do something, and to do it very well. We may never see the end results, but that is the difference between the master builder and the worker.

Too much modern culture only understands politics as a form of performance art and not as a form of individual and/or collective action, even though the latter is what politics actually is.
