Angela Davis acquitted 1972 — spent five decades building abolition's intellectual infrastructure. Sylvester in gowns on national TV 1979 — never explained himself once, left his estate to AIDS organizations. Barbara Jordan before the Judiciary Committee 1974 — 285 bills before she reached Washington. None of them asked if the room was ready.

If Gov. Kathy Hochul’s proposal involving state prison closures on forest preserve lands gains traction this year, New York voters could decide the fate of three Adirondack-area facilities through a 2027 constitutional amendment.
..the Democratic governor proposed removing three closed prisons from the constitutionally protected forest preserve. The removal would allow the state to sell or lease the sites for private development.

Ahhhhhh this #MariameKaba presentation on zines as community archives was thrilling. Loved the connections with early pamphlets and magazines made by Black people in the US, and her thoughts on the relevance of DIY publishing in, uh, high censorship environments.
