I really appreciated this conversation with the folks at @radpedagogy.bsky.social! So nice to return to this conversation about love and work after a week of installing an (amazing) exhibition at Human Resources LA, and during a season of doing policy work via my UC service.
Our latest episode is dedicated to anyone who has ever done work they love in an institutional context where harassment + betrayal are endemic. What pedagogies emerge in/from that dynamic? Can we make institutions that love us back?
Jennifer Doyle (@fromaleftwing.bsky.social) talks about it.

I know we have a LOT going on but I remain just stymied by how little controversy there has been about athletic federations sex testing women athletes. It's so fucking wrong and I feel crazy for living in a society where women athletes aren't fighting back. That's my thought for the day.

A free and democratic society cannot silence comedians because the President doesn’t like what they say.
This is an attack on free speech and cannot be allowed to stand.
All elected officials need to speak up and push back on this undemocratic act.

Familiar to all sports fans who have tried to show support for 🇵🇸 in the stands in the U.S.. We are branded a security threat...by who exactly???
And there’s the smoking gun: Tennis Canada collaborated with Israeli intelligence to ban spectators from the Davis Cup match.
(Obviously in order to prevent images of anti-genocide protest spectacle that would have been broadcast around the world.)
