As a high schooler downtown on 9/11, this looks very cool as an article and resonates both because I saw the dust at the time and for months afterward along with knowing people who are sick. Also reached the stage where events in my life are history. Guess I'm officially "old." 🤷♂️

Some of you may be interested in this symposium on 'truth-telling' (in its many guises) being held at the University of Melbourne this week. Students and mob can attend for free, Unimelb staff get a 20% discount, and unwaged scholars get a 75% discount. I will be there for some of Friday's sessions!
