Speaking of @schooldaves.bsky.social, I'm so excited about his book that I accidentally bought myself two copies! 🤦‍♂️

This book is essential for understanding how we got here with unequal school funding -- but, even more importantly, Dave has concrete ideas for how to build a better system.

I've really appreciated people sending me pictures of my Book Baby out in the world. Please keep them coming!! 😊

Spotted this @pennpress.bsky.social beauty in the wild in Los Angeles. Thank you to @urbanhistorya.bsky.social for a wonderful conference!!!

I was delighted to join Jenna Pittman on @newbooksnetwork.bsky.social for a conversation about CRACKED FOUNDATIONS (@pennpress.bsky.social). We talked real estate, inequality, and how the suburbs still hold a cherished place in American politics.
