Hey folks! I’m writing a piece about Japanese American solidarity with immigrants in the face of ICE raids and the establishment of concentration camps. If you are part of any Japanese American solidarity groups or know anyone who is, please reach out! I’d love to speak to you/them!

OPINION from LCRW: An LCRW article got plagiarized by an academic. When our writer confronted said academic about it, his colleagues dog-piled her and he scrubbed mention of her and her article rather than give her credit. Those who exploit women have no business dissecting the evils of bigotry.

Hey folks—hate to ask but I’m in the hole $400. I’m driving down to a college in SoCal this week to give a guest lecture. My tires were to the point where they were dangerous to drive on, had to replace. I’m missing work for it already & am in a tough spot. Anything helps. bsky.app/profile/lcrw...
