Reminder: Black history offers many examples of fighting authoritarianism, so one doesn't always have to look to Europe. Nazi lawyers looked to Jim Crow for inspiration for their racist laws. Read as much about struggles against Jim Crow as you do about other examples of resisting authoritarianism

We can’t wait another decade while thousands of families remain without stable homes. What good is a pro-housing majority when thousands are left without places to live? 6,980 families are waiting for us to permit more housing and to build it here. LFG! #a2council

I am using this book for my Twentieth Century Europe class again this semester. And as I am prepping it and my assignments, its breadth and depth of primary sources documents showing how fascism grew in many different European countries is amazing. Thanks to all the chapter authors!

Ann Arbor has too many geese… and deer #A2Council
After failing to shrink its goose population using non-lethal methods, the Mile High City opted to kill more than 2,000 birds. It then worked with the U.S. Department of Agriculture to process the fowl into meat for local charities serving hungry families. via @coloradopublic.bsky.social
Yes, Denver successfully cut its goose population by feeding families in need
In 2019, the city’s culling plan kicked off months of controversy, but its year-round goose population hasn’t recovered since then.
