When I considered writing a 📕about the Haitian Rev & film, I thought it would be ultra-niche. Who but my #Haitian Studies colleagues would care?

It's been very unexpected that #SROS found readers across disciplines & outside academia. It's out 5 years & I got a new invite (in NOLA!) today. 🤯

🏨 ICYMI, SRO REDO: SF has ~400 #SROs, many 100+ years old and in disrepair. A new state bill could make it easier to demo and rebuild them — even with fewer affordable units. Adam Brinklow reports on why it's is sailing through the legislature. thefrisc.com/gavin-newsom...

Investigators confirm test cheating by Richmond County school police An outside investigation confirmed cheating during virtual testing of Richmond County School System police.
