Excited to have my 2nd @columbiagr.bsky.social book going into proofs: globalreports.columbia.edu/books/the-mi.... It focuses on youth activists in/from Bangkok, Hong Kong, & Burma, but addresses themes relevant to protests in other settings from today’s Seoul to the Soviet bloc during the Cold War

Why are activists in Thailand, Hong Kong, and Burma willing to court danger to help one another? The political situations in Burma, Thailand, and Hong Kong are radically different. Only Burma is in a ...

My thesis statement is as simple as "Emotions especially when it ties to moral judgement are important in the protest mobilization especially in care-related emotions eg. Compassion in Thai middle and highschoo protests. It could be well because if we were to protest, we need to care about the cause

And let's not forget that Chenjerai was hired to teach *journalism* at NYU, because he is an award-winning broadcaster. For doing the thing he was hired to teach, he is now being being declared "PNG" at NYU. Wild stuff.
NYU Campus Security and Administration is totally out of control.

On Wednesday - I filmed a peaceful protest in Bobst library for two hours.

Yesterday at 2pm while at home,
I received an email explaining that I’ve been designated “persona non grata” and banned from several buildings on campus.

Related/ not related, one of the things I really admired the HK press corps for over the last few years is that most of them have been actively, passionately documenting the demise of their own freedoms
HKFP's photojournalist captured dramatic scenes outside court on Monday, as 45 democrats were sentenced over a legislative primary.

Niao's post got me thinking of this protest rally by Hong Kong journalists and their supporters in July 2019. One of my memories if it involves Claudia Mo standing quietly by while others said their piece. (A member of the Hong Kong 47, Ms Mo was a journalist before becoming a politician-activist.)

I'm going to start collecting threads on HK protest art in one place. Easier to walk down memory lane, even if they be filled with tears and teargas.

Having these in many places mean the images are harder to erase. And harder to forget.

Our new working paper shows how a single choice by many social media platforms—to treat all resharing as if from the original poster—can drastically reshape our understanding of the social dynamics on those platforms.

Right wing social media?

“political discourse online has increasingly shifted to an array of mostly right-wing sites that have built up their audiences and stoked largely partisan conversations.”

Election Reveals Right-Wing Shift of Social Media Platforms
If the election underscored anything about the internet, it was the ascendancy of social platforms for the right. That puts Democrats at a disadvantage.
