@drakbailey @MichaelSPollard @clydetombaugh @RMCarpiano Ha! Glad to have this heads up. The album covers are on the mark too—fave is “What Makes an Elf Build Toys?” Minutemen pastiche!

@clydetombaugh To expand your Christmas music library further, please try out Angry Snowmans. They cover classic punk songs, but change the lyrics. Songs by X, Dead Kennedys, Descendents, Agent Orange, Black Flag, Fear, D.I. So many over the last 10 years! angrysnowmans.bandcamp.com

.@hedwig_lee of @CRE2_WashU recently studied the impact of mass incarceration on families. She joins us Friday to discuss the collateral damage of the criminal justice system.
If you've had, or have, a loved one in prison, how has that affected you? ⬇️ bit.ly/30Bfnb4

@DCunningham_STL @SLUArchives @nickyfox530 @TCRWUSTL This sounds great and I can’t wait to read it! Awesome photos from CT, too. You and I should catch up if you’re up for it at some point this summer, @DCunningham_STL. I’d love to share what I’m up to with my STL focused work... teaser was posted 👇

This was hard. These are all “hidden” landmarks of segregation and racism in Midtown. Slavery, a vanished Black cemetery, Camp Jackson, desegregation at SLU, the remains of LaClede Town, closed SLPS schools (Warring and Vashon), buildings that survived Mill Creek’s destruction...

A find via @SLUArchives this morning - SLU students saying "goodbye" to the Nathaniel Lyon statue (then located at Grand and Pine in a small park) before it was dismantled and moved to South City in the early 60s. Lyon was the Union commander during the Camp Jackson affair.

@chrisprener @SLUArchives @nickyfox530 @TCRWUSTL Interestingly, also stumbled across another representation of Lyon (a CT native) in Hartford CT’s @BushnellPark!

@DCunningham_STL have any new books in the works? Or maybe suggestions of reading material to figure out what is going on with the alt-right in America.

Watching the RNC with my preteen kids, both of whom were part of the “out of control mob” that Mark and Patricia McCloskey just claimed threatened their life & freedom in STL! “Can’t stop the revolution” indeed...

1,000 miles north of Montgomery AL, in an area where you’re far more likely to see gratuitous displays such as those in the first image, heartening to see a household holding it down for @eji_org and racial justice.

Certainly not a novel insight, but benefits of strong state leadership so evident w/ distancing measures. Spent a night dodging unmasked hordes in northern IN, but a very different scene over the border in MI, thanks to @GovWhitmer.
