This month's featured speakers are Roopa Vasudevan @rouxpz.bsky.social, Assistant Professor, Department of Art, UMass Amherst) and Feng-Feng Yeh (chef, artist, and founder of the Chinese Chorizo Project, @chinesechorizo.bsky.social).

We define tools broadly--including strategies, tactics, theories, case studies, methods, and more--that support ongoing efforts to develop new pathways for research and creative intervention that is meaningful to those most impacted.

Drawing inspiration from Harney and Moten's theorization of "study" this salon-style speaker series brings together scholars, artists, and other cultural workers to share field-tested tools while also constituting an undercommons of its own.

In addition to co-editing the book, I also co-wrote the introduction and a chapter on solidarity between people with ME and Long Covid (with Emily Lim Rogers).

This anthology documents disabled people's experiences of the Covid-19 pandemic, from entrenched ableism to ingenious activism.

Unfortunately, it could not be more timely, as we not only enter the fifth year of Covid, but also the myriad public health and other unjust horrors of this new admin.

So so so excited to see it in the world! (And I love your photo staging 😻)
