Highly recommend my fellow American scholars read the new Anti-Autocracy Handbook on this 4th of July, a "call to action, resilience, and collective defence of democracy, truth, and academic freedom in the face of mounting authoritarianism." zenodo.org/records/1...
Today's a good day to read instead of doomscroll.
The Routledge Handbook of Urban Design Practice is coming out this fall. Look for my chapter "LGBTQ Inclusive Urban Design"

Alito's opinion in Mahmoud v. Taylor is poisonous homophobia that gives parents a de facto right to ban books in public school classrooms. It's violently stigmatizing toward LGBTQ families and filled with lies and bigotry. Every justice who joined it should be ashamed. slate.com/news-and-pol...
Samuel Alito’s “Pride Puppy” Ruling Is a Disgrace to the Supreme Court

Stand! Ooh! Ooo ooo stand! You've been sitting much too long There's a permanent crease in your right and wrong Stand There's a midget standing tall And a giant beside him about to fall Stand! Stand! Ooh! Stand! Stand! Ooh! Ooo ooo stand! They will try to make you crawl And they know what you're saying makes sense and all Stand! Don't you know that you are free Well at least in your mind if you want to be Everybody Stand! Stand! Stand! Na na na na na na na na na nah Stand! Na na na na na na na na na nah Stand!

One last post about KC LGBTQIA Pride Fest. I did not see any #UMKC presence there. The university did not participate from what I can see. In the past - LGBTQIA programs had a booth.
