“The bombardment of Iran on Saturday was the ninth time he had ordered the military into action in his second term, even as he has decapitated the government of Venezuela and threatened to overthrow Cuba’s dictator.” www.nytimes.com/2026/02/28/u...
Unbelievable that we still talk about withholding HIV funding as a form of political maneuvering rather than an act of social murder, as if the 80’s + 90’s never happened and we didn’t lose an entire generation to this already.
#BlackHistoryMonth at UBC Political Science ended with an amazing set of talks by Keidrick Roy from Dartmouth University and Brie McLemore from University of Washington. Now I need a few days to rest!

We came in with a full proposal, fully prepared to bargain, and they started off with a presentation of telling us how bad we were doing,” said UAW Local 2359 president and plant worker Robert Hines. “To go publicly on CNBC to support the Trump administration’s positive views …..

Happy Valentine’s Day from me and Dolce!
Lol…I always ask folks to guess who was born in Oakland and who was born in Spokane 😂
And still polling well…last I heard in second place 😞
I heard the AFD will be there, to JD’s delight. Funny how nobody wanted to talk about the far right when I used to be a regular at the Brussels Forum.
This is the second account - the first being in Chicago - of DHS agents mass detaining people and then *sorting them by race*.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ right back atcha!
So gross…the whole thing makes me feel sick. There were many stories that passed through the UT Provost’s Office after I got there in 2006, so hard to get rid of folks like this but I didn’t hesitate when I became a provost.

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

I just did that in class today.
#BlackHistoryMonth - about the first Black doll I ever owned. I loved Barbie, but Mattel didn't produce a Black Barbie until 1980. Diahann Carroll played a nurse in the show Julia, another first. The doll that was made from that show was an important representation for so many young girls like me.
My generation grew up with a show that helped us see a beautiful image of our country…that’s why our hearts are breaking now. 💔
