A couple of weeks ago I skeeted “let's repeat to each other — like prayers — the things that enable us to keep going.”

Then @mskellymhayes.bsky.social announced her forthcoming collection which is…yes—exactly what we (I) need in this moment.

Preordered (of course) & more than one copy. 💛

If you missed the ASHE first 100 days webinar moderated by @jackiepedota.bsky.social with me, @robertkelchen.com, Diane Cheng, and Kyle Southern, here's the recording. I talked about authoritarians but also told some jokes!

And lucky for y’all, I had a bonus day in Denver after seeing some fam in the area over the weekend! So, per a request from @eriqfelix.bsky.social, let’s get this #AERAfoodie party started!

#AERA25 #AERA2025

If you’re at #AERA25, I’m presenting Wednesday and Sunday (🫠), so let’s grab a meal/coffee/ while in Denver. And stop by our Sunday Symposium.

From @prisonculture.bsky.social & Jane Ball comes a powerful book showing the harm that prisons cause & exploring alternatives, gorgeously illustrated by @ollycostello.bsky.social.

Prisons Must Fall is now available wherever good books are sold, or you can request it from your local public library.

This week, @prisonculture.bsky.social and I talk about what our book Let This Radicalize You brings to the current moment. We also discuss the fight for reproductive justice, working across difference, and the need to build collective courage.

I spoke with @audiosand.bsky.social for @npr.org All Things Considered about the fact that the "Anti-DEI" movement is an anti-Civil Rights Movement.

We'll have more to share in the coming days. But what can you do right now? Call Congress. Call your state and local officials. Tell them exactly what's at stake if the President's order stands: the future of America's libraries.

It's time to Show Up #ForOurLibraries: bit.ly/ALA-LibraryStoryIMLS

🚨NEW🚨: Donald Trump is attempting to strip away federal support for libraries. We will NOT let that happen.

Last night the President signed an order to gut the Institute of Museum & Library Services. But together, we know we can show up & defeat it.
