University of California Press (is on Bluesky)

We are seeing a substantial uptick in hate speech and misinformation on X, and this platform is no longer serving our community in the way that it once did. We're focusing on growing our community on Bluesky and welcome you to join us there! ucpress.bsky.social

My very own copy of my @ucpress book, "Intersectional Feminist Criminology: A Companion to Theory & Research", came in the mail yesterday, right after my promotion to Full Professor at @SCSU in the @ScsuSociology Department - what a day! Preorder here! bit.ly/MichalsenIFC

A big thank you to @Terri_Francis and Miriam Petty for editing such an important, insightful collection of essays!
