Dear friends, 

Please join us for the Texas Observer’s 70th Anniversary. For 70 years, the Observer has worked to “hew hard to the truth as we find it and the right as we see it.” Now more than ever, it is critical to maintain reporting that seeks not only to inform but to hold power to account. A free and independent media must be a stalwart of truth, unwilling to bend to the threats of tyrants. 

I hope you’ll join us to celebrate out history as we prepare for the work ahead. As Molly said, “Keep fightin’ for freedom and justice beloveds, but don’t you forget to have fun doin’ it.” 

When: Tuesday, December 3 2024
Where: Scholz Garten, 1607 San Jacinto Blvd., Austin, TX 78701
Time: 6:30pm - 9pm


Les bombardements israéliens à
#Gaza ciblent aussi la #culture. Leila Shahid, ancienne ambassadrice pal., recontextualise dans cet entretien cette tentative de nettoyage culturel dans un projet de destruction de la #Palestine et de son peuple beaucoup plus large. Et les résistances culturelles possibles à l'effacement.

[NouvelObs] - « Mais alors : et les #Arabes là-dedans ? » Quand #MichelFoucault interpellait #JeanDaniel à la radio sur l’#Algérie.

En 1973, au micro de #FranceCulture, le philosophe disait son scepticisme quant à la vision que le fondateur du « #NouvelObservateur » avait de l’Algérie de sa jeunesse. Un ouvrage retranscrit cet échange, plus contemporain que jamais.

Is there a single UN agency worth its salt? Fuck all done when UNESCO sites in Gaza were destroyed, and they're still not doing anything now the zionists have moved on to erasing history in Lebanon. They're well up for a bit of AI though 🙄 🤬

Great article. "The Atlantic makes right-wing ideas respectable to liberals, and when it publishes articles encouraging Americans to be terrified of Iran or to support boosting the military budget, it does so in a “prestige-y format, next to a bunch of poems, and well-written movie reviews [which give it] some gravitas. You can’t just dismiss it as right-wing fear-mongering.” #Journalism #Magazines #Politics #Culture https://www.currentaffairs.org/news/the-worst-magazine-in-america

Just posted for my paid Substack subscribers a guide to 50 of the best nonfiction books I've reviewed as the book critic for Glamour, a large newspaper, or a freelancer.

I'd have posted it on @medium before #Medium greatly discouraged it with a post saying that even if you spend days on a thoughtful piece, you could get denied a boost for something trivial like profanity. It just made no sense, so hello, Substack.

So, you'll recall in the late-1930s the UK & other countries (including the US) benefitted from a large scale exodus of scientists & other intellectuals... indeed, there's been a lot of recent work done on how these migrants informed & shaped British cultural institutions across the 30s/40s/50s & beyond.

Are we now going to see a similar exodus of US scientists & others, who will then have a similar galvanising effect on their new/host countries scientific & cultural lives?

South African Rural Sculpture

South Africa has a rich rural carving #tradition. During the 1980’s this mode of #artistic expression acquired new dimensions with the emergence of rural #artists who were self taught and unexposed to other influences. As a result of the isolating of black South Africans into rural community areas, the artists residing in these areas created work that was authentic and unconditioned.
