Mine and Liz McKenna's article in Politics + Space 'Placing the peripheries within Brazil’s rightward turn: Socio-spatial transformation and electoral realignment, 2002–2018' is trending 📈 Check it out here: journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.11…'

I'm so honored to be in the company of so many scholars whom I admire—and grateful for the recognition of the research I've been doing with amazing organizers like Joy Cushman Prentiss J. Haney Doran Schrantz and Art Reyes III ✊❤️

"The crisis consists precisely in the fact that the old is dying and the new cannot be born; in this interregnum a great variety of morbid symptoms appear."

I finished Marshall Ganz's new book People, Power, Change: Organizing for Democratic Renewal and Adam Seth Levine's Collaborate Now! in a six-hour flight from San Francisco to Baltimore. Both are amazing; I want to write a longer thread... but I am so exhausted at this point.

Rest in Power, Jane McAlevey. nytimes.com/2024/07/07/bus…

"The single best thing you can do to honor Jane is to sign up for an Organizing for Power course—or read her classic No Shortcuts—and then go out and organize your co-workers," Eric Blanc writes: labornotes.org/blogs/2024/07/…

Let me say it plain: Jae's one of the most outstanding political scientists in academia - not just the job market - rn He works on panethnicity, civil society, and policy implementation. He's also a true multi method mensch Any institution would be lucky to have him
