OUR FOREMOST DAD HAT EXPERT!
Tim Walz is now the soft-crowned king of the dads. But JD Vance is a dad, too, and the comforting paunch of American Dad Culture protects him as much as it propels Walz.
I wrote about the long history of this in my very first(!!!) essay for @NYMag: nymag.com/intelligencer/arti…
Also gonna share this other amazing @kwazana piece, where she and Rebecca Wanzo so thoughtfully work through the complexities of being women of color around white fantasies of abjection-as-freedom, and this too feels resonant at the present time. lareviewofbooks.org/article/…
"What is a good question? And, how do we teach students to work at writing good questions?" This is the start of one of the essays I've been most proud ever to help platform, by @kwazana, genius of world making avidly.lareviewofbooks.org/2…
if you want to know what it's like to think and discover and BE with @kwazana, this might be one good place to start. BUT THERE ARE SO MANY MORE!
Good questions; good habits of mind; community making commitments— Wishing these things for all writers, for myself and my students, which is why I assign @kwazana's essay all the time, and why I wish let's say some, hmm, other writers might read it.

a politician who has consistently put the people first and has been often overlooked finally getting her flowers in this moment, she deserves the world 💙

Cori Bush fought for the idea that we should ask more of our government than the bare minimum, she called for a ceasefire — which is now a mainstream dem position! — back when it would have saved thousands of children's lives, and she got bought out of office. This isn't right.
.@CoriBush is what the future of the Democratic Party looks like.
No matter what a singular Super PAC can spend to try and buy an election, nothing can take away from the transformational effect Cori Bush has directly had on the people of St. Louis.

"This is how political attacks on critical theory work, rhetorically: They depict scholars and teachers as enemies of rationality so that a full-scale assault on higher education can be waged in reason’s name." A banger from @calebsmith203! chronicle.com/article/michel…
