This year I wrote a book about how Columbus colonized the Caribbean in 1492 - not what is now the US mainland. My book DARK LABORATORY celebrates Kalinago survivance and the African agrarian x aquatic traditions people like my ancestors, who were enslaved, brought to the region.

The amount of sudden amnesia that's about to happen about genocide.

Since Trump’s EO, my family has received multiple death threats. This past weekend, we were doxxed (we received a threatening email with our home address). We are moving to a safer location.

I’ve received multiple death threats + doxing (including my home address) directly following harassment from Turning Point USA, Jack Posobiec, Andy NGO, + Fox News which called me an antifa ‘financier.’ I have been forced to move my classes online. If journalists want to talk, DM me or reply here.

Teaching has been such a joy this semester @huntercollege.bsky.social NYC, our living island laboratory. 💜

We are at the point where ICE's gestapo raids -- whole buildings being cleared and residents hauled off in the middle of the night, no questions asked -- are being reported in People magazine.

On the penultimate day of September I finished my first reading of Dark Laboratory by @taoleighgoffe.bsky.social … I will literally have to write an entire essay in homage (and to tally all the synchronicities I found…). Go read it!!!

Let’s play ball! #YankeeStadium

Nothing makes me a better Professor than remaining a student. I love to enroll in classes, partly to remember the vulnerability of surrendering to the porous process of learning. What post-PhD coursework have you enjoyed?

Dear friends, As have become a habit, I mark each #autumnequinox by sharing a small poem by Xin Qiji. I also start my translation cycle of Chinese and Japanese poems and prose that mark the twenty-four lunisolar micro-seasons. Translation notes blogged here: #everynightapoem

Enter the Dragon Baby!! Happy 1st birthday to my baby. Bruce Lee-themed party.

These attacks on vaccines, tylenol, fluoridation of water, masks, etc is to keep everyone so distracted that nobody has the energy to ask - why are so many lacking access to medical care? - why is gun violence #1 cause of death in kids? - why is life expectancy falling? - why are meds unaffordable?
