We know, it's Sunday night. But spare a moment for the Learnship teachers who haven't been paid their wages for this month or last month. And send an email the bosses letting them know it's time to pay up! #solidarity

Having been to Italy a few times before, I was kinda embarrassed when I recently realized there are hand pumps scattered all over the country. Making it back there this summer, I made sure to do a little investigating and wrote about it on the blog.

A friend of mine was on Charlie Kirk's "watch list" of Black professors. She received so many death and rape threats that her university offered her a security detail for the walk to class. This is Kirk's legacy. You would never know it from reading all of these legacy newspaper op-eds about him.
