Cover of Ice Geographies: The Colonial Politics of Race & Indigeneity in the Arctic. The cover features an abstract art piece by Darcie Bernhardt. The piece is titled Beluga Hunting and depicts a light pink, green, and blue marbled pattern. Forked green and white lines within the pattern evoke topographic striations.
Congratulations to Jen Rose Smith @sprucehen.bsky.social, whose book "Ice Geographies" has been named a co-winner of the On the Brinck Award, given by the University of New Mexico School of Architecture + Planning @unm_saap. bit.ly/4aGYo7K buff.ly/eXBh6OO

A brown hand holds up When Trees Testify: Science, Wisdom, History, and America's Black Botanical Legacy, the latest book by Beronda L. Montgomery. The book jacket is black with white and orange text and green plants nestling along the sides. In the background are bookshelves and the logo of Harvard Book Store.
Get yourself a copy of the new book by @berondam.bsky.social โ I just read the preface of it while waiting to hear her & @chanda.blacksky.app chat about it this evening. It's personal, rich, profound, timely.
Looking forward to reading the rest.

No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientistโbecause the person felt she did didnโt deserve the recognition.

Academic publishing is currently experiencing a viral spread of โzombie citations.โ I tried following one to see how these references are infecting academic knowledge systems codeactsineducation.wordpress.com/2026/01/30/t...
Please spread this far and wide, as stories don't get much bigger than this. When the government blocks even the intelligence services from telling us we're heading for environmental catastrophe, you know we have a problem. A very big problem.
Thank you.

Really excited that Joniece Abbott-Pratt, who narrated my first book The Disordered Cosmos, is also narrating The Edge of Space-Time. I'm lucky that she chose to work on the project!!
If you're not familiar with her work, you should go to @libro.fm and look through all the books she's narrated.
I didn't know that people had stopped understanding that actually asshole physicists do solid scientific work all the time and have for centuries
Newton was a complete shithead
Anyway I wrote a book about how physicists have often displayed very bad values and it doesn't need to be that way
