Bouie has a terrific article on southern labor out this morning? Why is it so good? It emphasizes the amazing work of Kate Jewell in her first book, Dollars for Dixie. Read the article, the book, and her second book on college radio!

Really honored that the Baffler asked me to write about the Biden Administration's new repayment plan, SAVE. It's better but still won't rescue us. That's going to take activism and organizing to get Congress to act.

Want to celebrate Labor Day? Check your paystub and consider what it means that gig workers don't get one. Huge thanks to the folks at Time for working with me on this essay, a very very early preview of my next research project on the history of the US paystub.
