"Bolsonaro will probably be convicted, Bolsonaro will probably be arrested – or he’ll go into exile, he’ll flee the country … From a judicial standpoint Bolsonaro’s cornered," says @bernardomf.bsky.social www.theguardian.com/world/2025/m...

Advance copies starting to make their way out in the world. Fingers crossed the tariff shenanigans don't delay the shipment up to Canada...

In prep for the Oscars this weekend, everybody should read this excellent piece by my dear friend and colleague, @ffreff.bsky.social Frederico Freitas. It's about the film I'm Still Here, his family's search for answers, and Brazil's ongoing memory wars. www.dissentmagazine.org/online_artic...

A wonderful, lengthy review of The Prestes Column by Caio Fernando Barbosa. @dukepress.bsky.social nacla.org/prestes-colu...

Feeling 🥳🙃😍 to have a blurb from novelist Yara Rodrigues Fowler. Given how much I want Searching for Memory to be about the importance and complexities of narrative, a blurb from such a gifted storyteller like Yara means the world to me.

The ink is signed -- the Portuguese translation of my forthcoming book will be published in Brazil by Editora Garamond. Saindo no Brasil abril 2025: O garimpeiro da memória: Aluízio Palmar e a sombra da ditadura 📚🎉

(been saying it to anyone who will listen) Watch this film. An extended musical riff around the story of the murder of Lumumba: on decolozination, neocolonialism, the UN, Third Worldism, CIA, jazz and so much more. Incredibly inventive formally and so powerful. Was left stunned at the end of it!

For everyone in need to indexing (and also developmental editing) get in touch with @drbwerner.bsky.social 👇👇 best in the game.

I'm an historian of Latin America, mostly social movements, memory, and development studies. My newest book (forthcoming this spring) is a biography of Aluízio Palmar, a former political prison in Brazil who became a human rights activist. It's about his life, but also how he has narrated his life.

Page proofs are here! Coming to bookshelves near you in April. @uncpress.bsky.social And official news coming sometime next week, but it will be published in Brazil at the same, with Editora Garamond.

Hey Bluesky, I am excited by all the energy coalescing on this platform. It seems like a place for strategic thinking, which we badly need. A few initial thoughts: 🧵

To the small number of friends I already have on this site, I'll be moving here permanently soon! I do think there was a golden age of Twitter, which was great for following politics and building academic networks. Sad that it ended a long time ago. Finally moving on.
