I spent a year reprocessing the Robert Moses papers. Read a little bit about the work I did, some highlights from the collection, and some funny bits about Bob.

In these dark days, it was a pleasure to process this collection of papers from Norman Thomas and his brother, Evan. Inspiring socialists and pacifists. A reminder that America has a long history resisting the status quo.

Spotify donated 1.7 million kroner to Trump’s inauguration and hosted a party featuring Ben Shapiro & Tim Pool. These companies and mega-rich CEOs don’t care about the workers who make their companies run, they care about cozying up to Trump’s oligarchical power.

Really cool to see these Wrapped lists of artists that didn’t get paid. Cancel your Spotify!
