"Here surely lies sociology's distinctively
public purpose: to represent humanity's interest in containing the unbridled tyranny of the market and
state." May others go forward in memory of Michael Burawoy. www.asanet.org/michael-bura...
A stately beaux arts building on the left with dozens of students sitting on the steps. In the middle, Michael Burawoy stands with a megaphone wearing all black and staring at the camera with a friendly smile.
I will always remember him as the 1st professor to show up at the barricades & the last to leave whenever there was a student protest on campus. Here he is on the steps of Wheeler Hall lecturing on Foucault as students chained themselves to the roof protesting austerity. 📸 @zunguzungu.bsky.social
It’s sad that the biggest infrastructural investment of our lifetime by gov and business is an intellectual deskilling, plagiarizing machine that they dare call “intelligence.”
What would happen if we put a few billion into public libraries and focused on people, not products.
Merci!!!
Clip of New York Times Article with a photograph of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and the following headline: Donald Trump Wants Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to Be Health Secretary Whether the Senate would confirm Mr. Kennedy, a vaccine skeptic who has unorthodox views about medicine, is an open question.
Unorthodox is when you eat a hotdog with a fork and knife. Supporting dangerous conspiracies that will lead to death from preventable diseases and planning to fire most NIH staff is RADICAL EXTREMISM.
The NYT is destroying our capacity to understand and resist this right-wing takeover.

Photos of protestors outside a building. A Palestinian flag is being waved and a banner reads “Chevron stop fueling genocide in Gaza”
Protestors are at Chevron headquarters this morning as the company holds its shareholder meeting.
Chevron drills off the coast of Gaza and supplies the vast majority of Israel’s energy as that country’s government continues its assault on Gaza.

Au festival Ciudades Reveladas hier soir à Buenos Aires. Très intéressant cycle de documentaires et conférences sur le néolibéralisme dans les villes
Tip of the day: how/where to write a book chapter
Today I gave a talk at EIDEAS on the UNSAM campus which was followed by many great conversations with Argentinian colleagues. I also had the pleasure of hearing a great talk on toxic exposure to pesticides in rural areas by Pablo Lapegna (U. Georgia) and Johana Kunin (EIDAES). What a great day!
Ce matin à Buenos Aires… réveil difficile ici, force aux cheminots argentins!
J’ai vu le Bourgeois gentilhomme (avec Christian Hecq) hier soir à la Comédie française et je vous le conseille vivement !
Christian Hecq compose un Bourgeois gentilhomme tordant mais aussi touchant à la Comédie-Française. Marionnettes, ballets et chants : c’est une féerie !
