MassTransparency Out in the World
Jeff is not actually hibernating.
Things I'm working on:
- Collecting the last of the POST Commission submittals in the wake of the Mack ruling.
- Organizing the remainder of the book ban stuff that I am criminally behind on...
Things I've done recently:
- I was recently on Jamie Loftus's podcast, sixteenth minute of fame, talking about police transparency in the wake of the Boston Slide Cop. It's a good time, and I especially loved how Jamie closed out the whole thing.
(As an aside, I am Not a Big Deal, and my Twixxer account continues to be a notification wasteland ever since the pod dropped, because Jamie Loftus is apparently, like, very popular. Also featured on the pod was Molly Conger (aka socialistdogmom), who also has A Following and I basically feel like a little kid allowed to eat at the adult table on Thanksgiving. Thank you to new followers and to Jamie for being cool. Her book is about hot dogs.)
- I will be part of a virtual panel on book bans with the Massachusetts Association of Teachers of Speakers of Other Languages tomorrow afternoon. I'll be talking primarily about my data collection efforts, but also about being on the front lines of a book ban battle in my hometown as well. Preregister at the link if you're so inclined.
More coming soon! Thanks for sticking around!
