"If the Black digital afterlife is rooted in bigotry and inspires new forms of racialized aggression, Resurrecting the Black Body asks what other visions of life and remembrance are possible, illuminating the unique ways that Black cultures have fought against erasure and oblivion"

"What #publishing, our dubious white ally, does so often to marginalized creators. They want the credibility of our identities, want to market our biographies. They want to sell our suffering, smoothed down and made palatable to the white readers they prioritize. To assuage white guilt with stories that promise to make them better people, while never threatening them, not even with discomfort. They have no investment in our voices. Always, our voices are the first sacrifice at the altar of marketability.
"And excuse my language, but absolutely the fuck not."Maggie #TokudaHall: https://prettyokmaggie.com/2023-4-11-scholastic-and-a-faustian-bargain/

"Even if reparations never come, reparative practices still nourish our communities and the culture at large. This is about the daily, unglamorous, never-ending, ever-changing work of repair"
So glad AJ Escoffery's new book Reparative Media is out!! (open access)

And now, the most important images from my time in Cape Town for #ICA26 -- the *adorable* African penguins at Boulders Beach and the beautiful sights at the Cape of Good Hope. I'm so grateful to have a job where I get to travel and talk with/learn from so many other smart people while also getting to see parts of the world that I might otherwise never see!

While in Cape Town for #ICA26, I noticed this interesting "storefront" near the convention center: The AWS Skills Centre, which I can really only describe as an Amazon Cloud Propaganda Department
It offers "free cloud training and interactive exhibits" -- and, of course, advertisements for AWS products. There are free classes—ranging from basic computer skills to specific sysadmin training
Very interesting to see how the tech giant curates its physical presence

"What if we could start over and build the Internet from scratch? How could it be rebuilt or reimagined as more equitable and just? ... Paris critically examines the myriad and contradictory promises, utility, and obstacles to building a completely new Internet.
Radical Infrastructure locates and analyzes the boundaries of how people and groups imagine, build, deploy, maintain, and use the Internet as they survive—and even dare to thrive—in challenging political, economic, and environmental contexts. Ultimately, Paris encourages active reflection among scholars, policymakers, and activists and reveals more grounded imaginaries, tactics, and opportunities for future people-centered projects"

I published a paper from a first-person perspective about how features on #Mastodon leave enormous loopholes for harassing behavior (OA, 🔗 ⬇️ )
I came over here in the Nov22 wave & never left, but I no longer invite people to join without giving (loud) fair warning about drawbacks. I can't in good faith recommend Mdon to anyone who's more likely to be on the receiving end of harassing behavior
We have proof of concept, but the stakes are *urgent* to improve!

My review of @rwg's new book "Move Slowly and Build Bridges" is now published in Convergence
https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/13548565251409858
In my draft/notes, I had written "this book slaps and everyone should read it because what is thing I feel... hope? optimism? That's been a long time overdue"
What I actually ended up writing was: "A more just, equitable, and inclusive online world is not only possible, but it is already being created."

Aymar Jéan Escoffery's (@ajescoffery) new book, Reparative Media: Cultivating Stories and Platforms to Heal Our Culture, is now out! An incredibly important title that reimagines how movies, TV, and a broader array of media can be made and distributed in ways that include more people and move beyond the extractive models so common to contemporary streaming and social media. #OpenAccess

I highly recommend that university instructors (of any subject) consider trying it out in their classes:
