A new special issue of VP on material conditions is out & itâs a banger. It considers what it looks like to interrogate the protocols whereby intellectual productionâs insides are quarantined from their constitutive outsides in conversation with Victorian poetry.

If one is to have freedom to write out of one's own varying unfolding self, and not be a machine always grinding out the same material or spinning the same sort of web, one cannot always write for the same public.

But when I asked an organizer what they wanted to see out of press coverage, they told me they wanted people to see the beautiful things they are building here, and not just the worst stories of the worst of ICE's crimes. What people are doing here is beautiful. It's a tragic beauty, but a real one
