In the @nytimes.com today, writer/performer #JohnCameronMitchell on post democratic Punk "it's getting your friends together to make useful stories outside approved systems." My research on #DavidWojnarowicz argues Queer Punk is the attitude for today. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/11/o...

My Uncle Remo, pilot and journalist, was expelled from his California home in 1942 as an enemy alien, tried to enlist in the army as a US born Italian American, was imprisoned and tried by a military court. When freed, he was expelled again. #VEday #fightingfascism #securingpeace

In the interest of open engagement/good governance, sharing some posts from Elon Musk's X critical of communicating with ISA members about our deliberatiions. I remain open to any conversations about working together on engaging in the world, but I refuse to post on X. Execdirector@isanet.org

Couldn't be prouder of #SaintMichaelsCollege alum @rlarochelle.bsky.social @umaine.bsky.social for the impact of his research on @maddow.msnbc.com - sorry @isanet.bsky.social he's an Americanist so I helped intro him to @apsa.bsky.social long ago but I'll encourage him to add a comparative case
