A transgender woman was violently assaulted by Austin Police the other night. The video is very graphic FYI: www.statesman.com/story/news/l...
APD under fire after video appears to show officers slamming trans woman to ground
Council Member Zohaib "Zo" Qadri, who represents downtown Austin, said in a statement Tuesday he was "deeply concerned" with the incident.

We can't expect international talent to risk getting detained & tortured in order to attend conferences

Good job, academics who encouraged higher ed to accommodate the speech of far-right extremists! You've really had an impact on your colleagues!
A lot of global academic conferencing is centered around the US, and US academic orgs have to be thinking very seriously now. You cannot continue to carry on with in person conferencing as if foreign scholars have no impediments to travel.
I know we like to pretend everything is "normal" again but..

At some point everybody has to stop fighting with each other and just go after Trump. That's the only goal at this moment. It's the only way to stop a fascist. We have a common cause

“When we look at Auschwitz we see the end… It's important to remember that the Holocaust actually did not start from gas chambers. This hatred gradually developed from words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanisation & escalating violence.”

I'm keeping tabs on how Texas agencies will respond to Friday's legal opinion from the Attorney General ordering them to reverse trans people's drivers licenses and birth certs changed by court orders. If your DL gets modified or you have difficulty renewing, please reach out to me here or on signal
