Reading their output, one would not know that basically all classes are online. Or that testing is scarce and dubiously allocated. Or that UVA's COVID is spreading into the community. Or that Cville public schools have to meet online because of UVA. They do excellent work.

I've been amazed during the pandemic by the quantity and quality of propaganda on @UVA run by University Communications, 40 employees listed on their website with an average salary of ~$93k. They're undoubtedly the best paid and best funded news organization in the Cville area.

As @UVA prepares to bring back students, some of the most at-risk staff will be custodial services employees. This is a breakdown of the salaries UVA pays to the 143 staff listed as working in custodial services. After taxes: $31,200 = $25,537 or $2,128/mo.

At long last, my paper on the folk conception of consent is out in @YaleLJournal! It asks a simple question: Can you consent based on a lie? For most experts, the answer is no. But I find ordinary people feel differently. Let me explain. CW: rape, battery yalelawjournal.org/article/common…

Fascists like to hide behind the ambiguity of the term “elite,” and get off on finding crossover with Leftists who also use that term in discourse. We don’t want crossover with fascists, though. So we ask that Leftists make things clear by saying “the capitalist class” instead.

At one point in this @tressiemcphd captures in just a few sentences something which would take me at least 1,000 words to articulate. A must-read piece. medium.com/more-of-a-comm…

Thinking about how abolitionist praxis is fundamentally historical.

In calling on communities to see police, prisons, and all carceral systems as products of willful decisionmaking and human design, abolitionists demonstrate that the current systems of punishment and imprisonment are not naturally-existing, necessary, or life-giving institutions.

Why did the mayor remove a statue today? Because he knew it would give him cover to resume evictions and brutalize advocates with pepper spray. Do not give the mayor any credit. Fight like hell to make sure evictions are paused

Any basic definition of racism needs to explain how we end up with racial groups in the first place.

1) Since the pandemic started, people have been saying science has been politicized by this administration as if this is something new. Science *is* and has always been political, especially for Black folks in this country. A THREAD.

Let’s face the truth that @UVA doesn’t want to admit aloud. Tenured positions are pretty much safeguarded against termination & bc of that tenured professors are emboldened in their “risk taking” as they push the university to new heights and Uva is afraid of bold Black faculty.

Intersectionality is not additive. It’s fundamentally reconstitutive. Pass it on.

THREAD: As police and politicians insist that this wave of uprisings is the sole work of "outside agitators" to justify violent crackdowns, now's the time to revisit the long, racist history of the term and its role of fracturing solidarity in the name of counter-insurgency.

Dear downtown businesses: Stop donating to the Charlottesville Police Foundation. They sponsor community "outreach" activities that normalize militarized policing. (Shit like "SWAT team gear show" with bouncy maze and ice cream for kids wtf??) #DefundThePolice
