Our @drjackimac spoke to @insidehighered for a story exploring the bureaucratic hurdles between institutions that serve large numbers of Asian American, Native American and Pacific Islander students and the federal dollars set aside for them. insidehighered.com/news/dive…

The moment we are living through is one conservative strategists have been building towards for decades.
Where it doesn’t matter who controls Congress or the White House, bc conservatives control the courts.
And (by grabbing power) the court has the last word.

HAPPY 108TH BIRTHDAY, GRACE!
ALT Image: Grace Lee Boggs in her 90's posing and smiling. Text reads: "Had I not been born female and Chinese American, I would not have realized from early on that fundamental changes were necessary in our society. I might have ended up teaching philosophy at a university, an observer rather than an active participant in the humanity-stretching movements that have defined the last half of the twentieth century."

The largest lithium mine in the US is slated to be built on the site of an 1865 massacre of Western Shoshone and Paiute people. The tribes are arguing in federal court laws protecting historical and cultural resources should block the project. apnews.com/article/nevada-li…
Appreciation post for the newly tenured Dra. @drssotto. You are one of the best things from my decision to go to IU for my doctoral program. I’ve learned so much from you and working with you as a mentor, colleague, and friend in the struggle.

academia is:
universities releasing statements denouncing anti-Asian violence all the while never creating Asian American Studies departments nor hiring the Asian American Studies scholars that would help them actually understand the root cause of anti-Asian violence.

I reached into the console and fished around for my badge. It wasn’t there. My brow furrowed.
Me: “Badge, we are not doing this today.”
My hand swept over my passenger seat as I eked closer to the parking garage. Still no badge. Now I was almost at the entrance.
Grrrr.

This is the front of the student debt relief application. You can apply, but the court’s stay prevents them from discharging debt right now. The moment that stay concludes, @POTUS needs to cancel it all. Stop wasting time.

Every fall, Americans send about 8 million tons of bagged leaves to landfills.
But you don't have to. Keep leaf litter on the ground — it fertilizes the soil and gives shelter to small wildlife.

An important listen.
Have you had a chance to listen to Kuper Island?
The 8-part series tells the stories of four students: three who survived and one who didn’t. They attended one of Canada’s most notorious residential schools.
All episodes available now: hyperurl.co/kuperisland
ALT Artwork designed by Eliot White-Hill. The piece is a variation of the Kuper Island logo. The faces of the four students are visible but they are held by two thunderbirds. The students are now in the foreground, with the dark building of the Kuper Island Residential School fading into the background.
