most—and i do mean most—academics write out of, and into, a tradition. no matter how novel (y)our ideas seem, we are entering into a conversation, not starting it. to perpetually assert the “new” is to engage in the same violence of ownership that the work often argues against.

I strive for grace but at the end of the day I am furious that a grating, cliche, and static performance in an inferior work won over Audra’s most historic, transcendent, gorgeous and vivid performance. Story old as time. And resonant of this political moment.

@zorafuture Anyone who surpassed all others in a role widely perceived to be the greatest of all time would have won. She is cerebral + operatic + Black + tender + angry + conflicted + beautiful. She was the best. Point blank period. But wow is she also graceful.

My 6 year old son is revising history and time traveling a pretend Knicks v Bulls game. He, as Jalen Brunson, is playing against his babysitter Brianna, as my all-time favorite player, @ScottiePippen. Brunson is winning. My loyalties are split. Proud mom but Scottie forever 😂

I am still not able to fully process the scale of this electoral catastrophe. I will have to go through stages of mourning and disbelief and anger. I think it’s ok to feel these things. It’s difficult to find any good news, but here’s some. We still have a good chance to… /1
