My former UI colleague, @victorerikray.bsky.social calling out the hypocrisy at my former institution. It sounds very similar to my current institution.

Apparently, you can also demand $5 million in taxpayer dollars to teach no one about conversative ideology.
As a former faculty at this school we were NEVER allowed to purchase alcohol with taxpayer dollars. It's clear different rules apply if you're advancing a conservative agenda.
We worked together beautifully on these pieces! #WomenAlsoKnowHistory Huge thanks to @profmytheli.bsky.social, Lynn Thomas, Sarah Mellors-Rodriguez, and Tasha Kimball for their brilliance! Please read out intro to Traveling Histories of Abortion for #HistoryLab

An individual stands in front of a group of people holding a cardboard sign that reads, “You Can’t Erase Us!”
📣 Today the Latinx Studies Association condemned the closure of the Department of Mexican American and Latina/o Studies at UTAustin. LSA Pres. David J. Vázquez emphasized the need to protect MALS in the “birthplace of our profession, of our field.”

Folks, please help my former UI grad student raise money for legal fees. It seems snowflake GOP congress people don't like it when well-educated Latinas stand up for themselves and their right to an education.

Former faculty in the Department of Gender, Women's. And Sexuality Studies at Iowa. And it was absolutely one of the best places to learn about the intersections of gender, race, and class. I was surrounded by brilliant scholars teaching in the heartland. That's why they shut us down.
Our fearless, badass leader!
Taking a sledge hammer to Texas higher ed...it's been unrelenting this week.
This never-ending avalanche of shit.
One of the most miserable things about living in this era is having to watch the stupidest & most arrogant people in the world have to relearn The Why of literally everything good that we collectively do the hard way.
The answer is always ‘Because a bunch of people died, fuckwit.’
In case folks are curious...Benito collaborates with historians. 😇
We'll make music forever and ever and ever. Por siempre mi gente hermosa!

We're all crying. Art at its best is always political and radical.
This right here. INSANE! Benito, mil y mil gracias. Eres un artista sin igual.
@louiseseamster.bsky.social connecting the dots on tRumps bullshit tensions between the fed cutting interest rates and a possible recession. Turns out, because it's happened before, it'll make him and his oligarchs even richer.
THANK YOU, CARLY! 💕🔥💕
When reading is not seen as the best use of "instructional time" seems like we've reached a boiling point in education.
Beyond thrilled to be in conversation with dear friend and colleague Kelly Marie Ward! @uncpress.bsky.social
Said like someone who has NEVER made a decision like this in his life and CURRENTLY has taxpayer-funded comprehensive healthcare.
Corruption in congress? Shocked.

It was an absolute delight speaking to Lisa Hernandez for this No Jargon episode! Thank you for supporting my research and for talking about my book: Fighting for Control: Power, Reproductive Care, and Race in the US-Mexico Borderlands @uncpress.bsky.social
NOPE. They're actively attacking all the "Democratic-loved programs" during the shutdown. They're not talking to *us*. They're talking to the ascending upper white middle class. They *are* having more babies. And leaning into that tradlife.
