Last month, I organized a workshop on building public assemblies. Next month, I'm organizing a workshop on base-building in authoritarian times. My pals Denzel Caldwell & Mason Herson-Hord will be facilitating. If you're in Chicago, I hope you'll attend. Register: www.eventbrite.com/e/base-build...

It's funny to think that my preference for urban living in areas with dense, mixed-used, walkable neighborhoods, multi-family housing, small businesses, and diversity probably stems from Sesame Street. Like an early education in Jane Jacob's urbanist theories.

When you are feeling weary or despairing, remember that there are people in every corner of the world taking life affirming action in the direction of more justice.

BREAKING: We're suing the Trump administration to stop the transfer of migrants to Guantánamo Bay.
