New story by with graphics (maps) I did for AfroLA on the roots of today's disparate pollution impacts in the segregation and racist planning processes of the mid-20th century @afrolanews @ShadyGroveO afrolanews.org/2023/06/unequa…

L.A.'s segregated past put Black and Latine residents' health at risk as freeway expansion near their homes exposed them to harmful pollution from vehicles. Read more here: buff.ly/3NfDyAL (1/3)
I did basically the same, lol

Today, the new paperback edition of my book Blood Gun Money: How America Arms Gangs and Cartels is out. It follows the Iron River of firearms that pours from the United States into the Mexican drug war and beyond. Spreading the word, commenting, buying is super appreciated.

BREAKING: The Iowa Senate passed a child labor law before dawn today. The bill lets 14-year-olds work 6-hour night shifts, 15-year-olds work on assembly lines, and 16- and 17-year-olds serve alcohol. The Senate went through the night, and voted on child labor at 4:52 a.m.

I'll admit it: my own cynicism got the better of me and I was expecting a Vallas win. Aside from showing Johnson's ability to build a winning coalition, Vallas losing speaks to an impatience with his style of neoliberal Democratic politics. inthesetimes.com/article/brando…

NEW: Chicago Police ejected a leader of the @ChicagoDSA from the City Council chambers during Wednesday’s meeting after they said the deal Mayor Lightfoot brokered with ComEd “spit in the face” of efforts to fight climate change & prevent corruption. @wttw news.wttw.com/2023/02/03/chi…

Construction of the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway required the forcible displacement of tens of thousands of people across the two boroughs. Designed by Robert Moses, the highway cut a nearly 15-mile gash through some of the most densely populated neighborhoods on the planet.

Is there hope? Kafka: Yes, but not for us. Arendt: Dreams never do come true. Benjamin: It's only for those without hope that hope is given. Horkheimer: I do not believe that things will turn out well, but the idea that they might is of decisive importance. Adorno: No.

Last night I put some finishing touches on "Vipassanā in Certain Conditions," a collaboration in electronic poetry by Casey Clague and myself. We had been talking about doing something like this for a couple years now, I'm glad we did. justinallen.github.io/vipassana-in-c…
