We received interesting questions and valuable feedback after presenting at The Social Practice of Human Rights, a truly interdisciplinary space #SPHR26.

Democracies don’t just bounce back after dictatorships – Argentina’s Oscar nominee shows what justice afterward looks like Several films have portrayed violence and fear under Argentina’s most recent dictatorship, but the Oscar-nominated ‘Argentina, 1985’ is the first to explore the trial that brought junta leaders to jus...

Essay: As American democracy is in peril, Brazilian films offer perspective Oscar-nominated film 'The Secret Agent' shows how history is an essential tool for resisting authoritarianism.

“It became necessary to fight for memory, truth, and justice, because these crimes committed by dictatorship agents weren’t punished at that time, and have not been to this day,”

Essay: Bad Bunny's Super Bowl halftime show will be a history lesson for the ages Historian Jorell A. Meléndez-Badillo hopes Bad Bunny's halftime show will combat "acute ignorance" about Puerto Rico and its ongoing entanglement with the United States.

Check out my opinion piece at De Los from the Los Angeles Times on Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl halftime show as a history lesson.

Look around. The case for more, not less, liberal arts education remains stronger than ever.

Venezuela: Del Caracazo a Maduro

on this sunday-est of sundays, syllabus-ing for a new term

you're not alone against the oligarch agenda of cognitive deskilling, data capture, surveillance, and bias:

we've got assignment ideas, memes, recommended readings, o' captain speeches, syllabus policies, and so much more against-a-i.com
