Consortium director @inlandemperor has contributed to @PlacesJournal’s #UnfinishedAtlas, focusing on Won Kok Restaurant in L.A.’s Chinatown
"There’s something special about a place that becomes a hub for your community w/o being designed that way, coalescing through a slight rhyme of its flavors and textures with your own."
For "An Unfinished Atlas," @inlandemperor on Won Kok in LA Chinatown. placesjournal.org/article/so…

I know it’s been non-stop baseball on my feed, but it’s all linked to my love of Los Angeles, which I write about w/ some frequency. Here’s a new long form piece in @PlacesJournal on the hidden history one of my favorite restaurants in L.A., Won Kok placesjournal.org/article/so…

Baseball is an "American" pastime w/ all the settler colonial baggage therein. Yet many of us brown folx (precisely bc of colonial entanglements) have powerful relationships to ⚾️ esp to the Dodgers. Two great essays on this: tinyurl.com/4u4du8px | tinyurl.com/bxc38bk7 🧵
This is how Dodger stadium was built btw
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Los Angeles removed the residents of Chavez Ravine to build public housing, then the project was canceled. Eight years later, the Dodgers bought the land.

I hope Dean @Willow_Bay knows she has @weareangelcity experts/season ticket holders amongst the faculty & uni leadership who she could consult about anything team related. In the meantime, I invite her to listen to our whole run of @usc_consortium’s pod podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas…

We @usc_consortium are delighted to announce a new podcast on our network. The idea for it came on my flight back from our first @MellonFdn intersectional studies collective summer institute & I was so glad @kwazana & the editorial collective took it on & made it happen. Yay!

Since it is against university policy to post departmental statements on our website, we the undersigned faculty of @USC_GSS have instead written this open letter to President Folt & Provost Guzman on behalf of our students and shared principles. #FightOn✌️
