2024 was a bear of a year. So grateful to be awarded the Mellon—especially along with some of my fave historians and theorists. What a cohort! Thank you all for your continuing support and encouragement. Whoa hoa! 🥳 citizensandscholars.org/2025-mellon-...

So excited to be part of this special issue of The Moving Image—¡that loteria cover!

Available on those academic databases, or feel free to DM me for a copy. I loved writing about my collaborators and the cultural workers I admire so much.

This semester in my Social Movements class, I’ll be teaching using the volume dedicated to Tam Tran and Cinthya Felix, who we lost 15 years ago. Miss Tam terribly and also so very grateful for her enduring work. #StillDREAMing
