22 California billionaires have spent a combined $150 million so far to defeat Prop 40. By spending their fortunes trying to stop California from taxing billionaires, they're making the argument for a billionaire wealth tax more clearly and articulately than anyone else possibly could.

We need more people doing the Persian/Arabic/Chinese *literary* source comparison, but I don't doubt that we'll get there if my students' interest in these topics is any indication of where we can go.

One thing that the transregionality of terms like "Zanj" speaks to is the trade in persons who came under this designation; what's interesting is how little archaeological mark these dynamics seem to have left. This study revises that impression: www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

One of the more interesting philological phenomena is the travel of the word "Zanj" and its relatives to describe racialized people from the East African coast/nearby islands. There's a great paper on that here:

This is how our government has been corrupted: 1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians 2) Elected officials rewrite rules in donors' favor 3) Donors make huge gains 4) Repeat This is why we must get Big Money out of politics — and support the candidates who will fix the system.

Photo of me and Chris after the panel we were on together! I'm wearing a fuschia dress with big billowy sleeves, and black stockings and boots; and Chris is wearing a grey blazer with a light green patterned shirt and brown pants. We're standing in front of empty chairs with microphones on them, and a slide indicating that it's the lunch break nowV similar photo as before but Chris is leaned in a little closer, and the National Women's Law Center logo is visible behind us off to the right, as is a little side table with some flowers on it off to the left

What ICE has done to our aspirational 21-year-old Chinese student Qingfang Pang is unjust and counter to what the United States is meant to embody. A man, who had lived in the U.S. legally for 4 years on his way to renew his VISA, detained as a criminal.
