Even if you already heard about Carandiru, if you speak (or understand) Portuguese, I strongly recommend this episode of Radio Novelo. Somehow it combined prisons, inmates, the police, the legal system, architecture, urbanism, and society. radionovelo.com.br/originais/ap...

I feel so official! Also: new cards to reflect that @mlnjournal.bsky.social will be introducing a new issue (Jewish Languages and Literatures) + we will be officially adding Lusophone literature (we already publish some articles in Portuguese, but we are expanding that).

Another NEMLA2025 in the books! Thank you,
