I've written a rollicking history of censorship, with burning Roman rabbis, emotionally touchy slaveowners, post-war free speech experiments, and social media screw-ups. amzn.to/2TdjeaW

@ThatChrisRyan Was just thinking the same thing, and feeling content with our agent.

Ever wondered what it's like to work with big publishers? Here it is. nytimes.com/interactive/20…

By far the most powerful Israeli response I have seen. This 19 year old girl survived the horrific massacre in Kibbutz Be’eri. This is her message to her fellow Israelis and to the world. Watch the whole thing.

With those 3 unintended consequences—see above—banning books has the additional negative of placing banners in the singularly ugly tradition of those who intentionally prohibit and destroy knowledge. As @ericberkowitz4 and @richove attest, it’s a bad look. millersbookreview.substack.com/p/berkowitz-da…

Thanks, verucasaltamish!

@JMchangama Done!

@ericberkowitz4 Please join us!

So honored to be having this conversation with the great expert of Ancient Greece - and the history of democracy - Professor Paul Cartledge!

@DrJBhattacharya As @ericberkowitz4 has documented in this book: all through history ideas that are banned become more dear. As has been said a hundred times, the way to fight speech considered bad/incorrect is more speech; banning gives it more life. a.co/d/61xzZoM

@anthonyd3 Bad boy. Should’ve invited me. You know how I feel about lasagna.

ARIZONA— Former Arizona attorney general Terry Goddard and former Maricopa County Attorney Rick Romley urge Attorney @GeneralBrnovich, Cochise Co attorney to investigate whether 2 Cochise Co supervisors broke AZ criminal law by “willfully, refusing to certify” election results.

"The refusal to certify the results is directly tied to those who would rather sow distrust in our electoral process than protect our democracy and ensure that all votes are counted," said @alexgulotta after Cochise Co., AZ failed to certify yesterday. allvotingislocal.org/press-releases…

Thank you, Barack Obama.
