This was a hard year in higher ed & in life in general. We need some time to regroup. Hike in the desert & sit on the beach in places where there is no Zoom. Look for the series in July & August - we've got some great reviews & Q&As coming on some truly fantastic new books.

These measures will come to haunt Texas Republicans. The Texas electorate is rapidly changing, and they will be on the losing side of these outrageous, undemocratic maneuvers before too long. Before voting, GOP legislators should think hard about how this could - and will - end.

Going outside the bounds on
#SB7 makes it easier to overturn an election.

The Nikole Hannah-Jones situation has me thinking about all the people who are weeded out at the application, hiring, annual review, third-year review, and tenure process that we never hear about.

Very helpful thread to understand what’s going on in Goma (Congo) today, and why the city had to be evacuated although the volcano eruption is over. Friends from Goma, I’m keeping you in my thoughts & sending you much strength.

Un Jour Nouveau (A New Day) is another local, faith-based Goma organization that I trust. Leaders are busy helping others evacuate & can certainly use donations to support this work & the recovery to come.https://africanewday.org/donate
