Not at all surprised to learn that Bad Bunny has a historical adviser. His halftime show was a reminder that our history and culture are deeply intertwined with the rest of the western hemisphere. We should think of his performance as part of #America250. #SuperBowl news.wisc.edu/pop-star-bad...

Pop star Bad Bunny needed a Puerto Rican history scholar. UW–Madison had just the one.

Bad Bunny collaborated with UW–Madison history professor Jorell Meléndez-Badillo on Puerto Rican narratives that accompany the new album “DeBÍ TiRAR MáS FOToS.”

bsky.app/profile/reed... This is an excellent statement - I assumed it was from a California member of Congress. But this guy's from Rhode Island. We need ALL leaders in Congress putting out similar statements. Now.

Disabled protesters shut down a republican congressional hearing today because said repubs are trying to LITERALLY decimate Medicaid. They want to cut ~$88 *billion* from medicaid every year for 10 yrs for a total which, again— & this is important—*Essentially Equals The Entire Budget of Medicaid*.

The cuts to Medicaid that Congress is pushing through right now are a threat to the health & well-being of our communities. That’s why we're taking part of a 24-hr vigil in DC, alongside our partners at @caringacross.org , calling on Congress to #ProtectMedicaid 🧵 1/2

Graphic shows a hand holding a glowing candle. Text reads “24-hour Medicaid vigil at the National Mall, begins 5/7 @1pm and ends with a rally 5/8 @ 12pm.”

Wearing a mask at a protest also makes those who mask for security and/or health reasons less likely to be individually targeted in real time as "radicals" or "antifa" by cops.
