As someone who has lived my whole adult life in cities deemed “dangerous”—NYC, NOLA, and SF—I think a lot about how dense cities require patience, calm, and tolerance in the midst of social difference, which are of course exactly the civic virtues that the right resents being told to cultivate.

Talk about The Wire, Sopranos, Game of Thrones all you want, but the greatest US television program ever made is Sesame Street. It's not even close. 50+ years of treating kids across class, ethnicity, religion not as mini-consumers...but as citizens with a stake in this world.

How about, instead of insisting disabled people are fit to work, we insist that workplaces be made fit for people with disabilities? #DisabilityBenefits

No other UK broadcaster or streaming service could and would do this, IMO. Free to hear+see (no extra charges) universally available. The #BBC is funded by <47p (c60 US cents) a day per UK household licence fee. This is what national #publicservicebroadcasting can do to help citizens.
#BBC launching special new season across TV, iPlayer+Radio called Memories and #Dementia: Starting the Conversation, led by Dr Punam to help start conversations between those living with #dementia +friends, families+carers by evoking memories of their past through content from the BBC’s archive. 1/

"On October 8, 1931, a law went into effect requiring every Italian university professor to sign an oath pledging their loyalty to the government of Benito Mussolini. Out of over 1,200 professors in the country, only 12 refused. All of them were immediately fired." www.chronicle.com/article/what...

In 1931, Italian scholars were made to take loyalty oaths. Will that happen to us?

Not much new about the British Council finances in this piece. But there is a reminder of how much people from the private sector don’t realise it is harder to run a social purpose organisation - there are still commercial imperatives but a lot more besides www.newstatesman.com/politics/uk-...
