one of my favorite bits of gay Minneapolis history - to set the scene, around about 1979-1980, the Mpls Police Dept. frequently raided gay bath houses. In July 1979, there was a charity softball game between the cops and the gays, and the gays won!

20% of the students at Justice Page Middle School in SW Minneapolis are attending remotely b/c they're terrified to leave their homes. Their families can't work & rent is past due.
Parents at Justice Page are trying to raise 100k to cover the needs of 50+ families — can we raise 10k of it?

New mutual aid request!
This time it’s a Mpls family of six (incl an infant) facing extreme hardship.
Right now they need $3,000 for housing, food, and health expenses. We’d love to get there by Monday—can you pitch in?
Excess funds will be passed on to another mutual aid fund.

Vocational Awe and Librarianship: The Lies We Tell Ourselves – In the Library with the Lead Pipe
Vocational awe describes the set of ideas, values, and assumptions librarians have about themselves and the profession that result in notions that libraries as institutions are inherently good, sacred notions, and therefore beyond critique. I argue that the concept of vocational awe directly correlates to problems within librarianship like burnout and low salary. This article aims to describe the phenomenon and its effects on library philosophies and practices so that they may be recognized and deconstructed.
