As much as I hate the way we are all tracked online...I love a Google Alert. Yesterday I received this one: It's hard to explain how seen I feel in this feature of our anthology. It never occurred to me that folks would remember my Feminists for Puerto Rico (FPR) efforts and tie them to the anthology and that all of this work would come to fruition in this political moment when Borikén is being remilitarized and occupied by US empire and feminists more broadly are paying attention to and resisting that imperialism largely in response to the ongoing genocide in Palestine.

I am so honored to announce that I've been elected President of the National Women's Studies Association. My term begins at the end of our November conference in Puerto Rico.
I think I'll be the first Puerto Rican President, and I'll assume that role in Puerto Rico. This fact makes my heart sing.

I just keep thinking (a la Douglass): What, to the professor of race, gender, sexuality, disability, is academic freedom?

Conservative Org. Requests Materials for 70 Chapel Hill Courses
The Oversight Project, founded by the Heritage Foundation, is using an open records request to search for terms like “DEI” and “gender identity.” Faculty say it encroaches on academic freedom.

also, you can't beat $23.20 for a 375 page anthology.

I demand that Alvarez Diaz and Villalon drop out of the Esencia project immediately! This private city will only further destroy Puerto Rican land and displace more of our people. We deserve a Puerto Rico for Puerto Ricans! #NoAEsencia @advfirm

Serious question: so you’ve packed your go bag, WHERE are you going?
If the go bag is suddenly needed, will airports be working? Will trains be running? Will highways be open?
