Delicious meal last night with friends rounded off a busy week- including speaking at the @lipodystrophyuk conference the day before. Went well, I think. #RareDisease #PublicSpeaking #PublicIntellectual

Almost every line of this story would have been simply unbelievable a few months ago:

—Pioneering cancer researcher;
—*Arrested* at airport in Boston;
—Now indefinite ICE detention in Louisiana;
—"Crime": not declaring some frog-embryo samples for research.

Read it.

New images could change cancer diagnostics, but ICE detained the Harvard scientist who analyzes them
Without scientist Kseniia Petrova’s expertise, no one can fully unlock the data’s potential, putting crucial advancements in early cancer detection at risk.

Steven Thrasher is one of the finest scholars & writers working today, and one of the most extraordinary alumni of the same doctoral program I graduated from. He deserves better, and this new red scare bullshit is an affront to what our profession is supposed to stand for.

Wonderful to hear Stuart Hall, he was so clear.

This is an extract from a film recording of a lecture given in 2004 at the Carribean Reasonings conference.

Check out Quillette's latest video, Antizionism, Christianity & Environmentalism
Antizionism, Christianity & Environmentalism
From anti-Zionism’s language of inherited guilt to environmental “indulgences” and carbon absolution, the rituals feel strikingly familiar. Sin, repentance, purification—just without the stained glass. #ShanyMor #ZionismDebate #AntiZionism #PoliticalTheology #Secularism #ReligionAndPolitics #CulturalCriticism #IntellectualHistory #JewishThought #MiddleEastDebate #WesternCivilization #IdentityPolitics #ClimatePolitics #PublicIntellectual #LongformJournalism #IdeasMatter #FreeInquiry #Quillette

I wasn't a Stern fan, but I got how people liked him because he was edgy. I have the sense that people who listen to Rogan think of him as a publicintellectual, and it just baffles the s**t out of me.
