Rümeysa is one of the kindest, most compassionate people I have ever met. Many of you came to know her first and foremost as an ICE abductee, seized by a state that wanted to strip her of her humanity. I would like for you to know her in her own words, which are resoundingly human.

This is a great thread and the themes here apply to so many different problems that people think can't come back, but do

How the hell are you supposed to get any information in this chaotic media environment? In case you missed it: In my latest newsletter, I'll introduce you to one of the best tools we have for analyzing media -- and now you can use it too!
In 1973, a brilliant critic named Stuart Hall created a diagram that changed the way we study media, and could help you survive this moment. Just dropped: the second letter in my series about how to analyze the media in a time of crisis. It's all about codes.
