ICE killing #AlexPretti should remind you of police killing #PhilandoCastille. Both men had concealed weapon permits, did not draw their guns, & were killed in Minn. These homicides are the price of unaccountable policing. These deaths are variations on the same fatal theme.

If you’re outside of Minnesota and you’re wondering how to help, this guide is excellent. And seriously. Take down your Ring doorbell TODAY.

look what they’re doing to my beautiful city. this is bovino’s massive armed convoy, rolling through the Wedge, one of the nicest, friendliest residential areas in Minneapolis, doing nothing but posturing, starting fights, and then deploying chemical weapons at a park many children play in

Welcome to Minneapolis. Our neighbors have witnessed too many war crimes at this point. Federal agents even left weapons on the ground.

Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. dedicated his life fighting for equity and justice. He taught us that even in the face of intimidation and discrimination, we must never stop working towards a better future – a lesson that feels especially relevant today.

Morning.

Save the date: the 2026 DH@Guelph Summer Workshops will take place May 19th-22nd! We are looking for folks to run workshops on UX, DataVis, and Videogames, with an emphasis on equity and diversity. Pls see full call here: www.uoguelph.ca/arts/researc... Applications due December 15th. #DH

as a condition of funding, we were asked to affirm that we wouldn’t undertake any diversity, equity, and inclusion work, whether or not we used the government funds to do so. The PSF simply couldn’t agree to that statement,

Calling all #DH #LOD #GLAM folks! Please consider answering & sharing this survey on linked data: tinyurl.com/LOD-Ecosystem The focus: your experience of linked data, the tools & standards you use, & your ideas about future directions for linked data for the humanities & cultural heritage sector.

#DHMakes is anyone doing anything like this?

Bookish friends, please note that for the Electronic Literature Collection 5: “We consider eligible literary works as any work that is fundamentally shaped by its digital nature, whether they exist purely on screens, in hybrid formats, in print, or in physical spaces” and the call includes zines!

Can’t decide what to buy on Prime Day? Try: absolutely nothing, and then go support indie bookstores instead 📚

my friend @malaika-h.bsky.social is an incredibly talented and prolific crossword constructor—AND she keeps great records of her publications. I made her a very cool website that shows everything she's made malaikahanda.com

So many first timers at #DH2025 - I'm so excited for you all! Library folk, there's a special interest group (SIG) meeting on Monday. Regional DH associations meet throughout the week If you get overwhelmed easily, suggesting smaller dinners after receptions can keep things manageable

I'm attending #DH2025 virtually*, but I designed my conference poster on my ZineBakery.com research to be as Visually Extra as possible (🎵rainbow leopard print🎶) to give me (& hopefully you?) joy, so please enjoy! (*bc of fascism vs. trans passports, & recently getting sick from people not masking)

In a study of professors, women got 378 new work requests over 4 weeks vs 118 for men. Women spent more time on service, advising & teaching; men on research. Orgs should track who is taking extra duties & ensure they are rewarded and distributed fairly. www.forbes.com/sites/kimels...
