I develop these ideas in this open-access article recently out with Public Humanities:

If it annoys them to see people reading a book in public we're doing something right.
New mission: walking around with a book in your hand at all times. Waving it dramatically, fanning yourself with it, using it to block the sun, holding a coffee cup on top, dropping it loudly on a table...

This is one of the first things I point to when people ask me about Franco's Spain. 6,000 mass graves in a country under 200,000 square miles (for reference: Texas is 260,000 square miles)
El #MapaFosasRTVE es el primer mapa audiovisual con las 6.000 fosas comunes de la guerra civil y el Franquismo.
Los restos de más de 17.000 víctimas se han podido recuperar, pero otras 12.000 personas podrían ser aún exhumadas.

As COP30 is around the corner, a reminder that dialogue is only a spectacle as long as it's framed to stifle dissent. That's the main idea in my book Resisting Dialogue: Modern Fiction and the Future of Dissent. I discuss the issue more directly in "The Failure of Climate Dialogue" (see below)

I made and self published to @70 recipients a pop-up book, Marx's Fetters based on a proposed book that was rejected by several academic publishers.
