If any kid is hurt tonight, responsibility will fall on the mayor and univ presidents. Other leaders and schools have found a safe, de-escalatory path. This is the opposite of leadership and endangers public safety. A nightmare in the making. I urge the Mayor to reverse course.

The students’ tactics are to reveal the workings of the state to as many as possible and they are succeeding

This is how it should be, grateful for this rare leadership and hope other presidents follow his model of leadership.

Tulane: mounted police quash student protests. (Hosni Mubarak sent camels to Tahrir). Seems VCU students got tear gas and pepper spray. Georgia police tazed handcuffed student. U of Texas sent in armed troopers (since it’s not an elementary school with an active shooter).

Return visit to Harvard protest - more tents, more people, this time engaged in interfaith service (I caught Buddhist part) and communal dinner. Felt like Occupy to me, though with campus vibe rather than open city. Organized, democratic, determined. Note worker solidarity signs!
Peaceful student protest has long been a catalyst in our movement for justice—and should be met with thoughtful dialogue, not state sanctioned violence. The work of healing is not possible if we meet trauma with more trauma. We cannot make the same mistakes of generations past.
I stopped by the Harvard protest encampment (showed my library card to get in the locked Yard). Students were literally dancing. Others were playing cricket with plastic bat and wicket. Why would you ever call the police on a peaceful student demo

NEW - @NYCMayor says Columbia protest has been "co-opted" and is going to share their intel, he says at 1 Police Plaza. He advises students involved in the protest to leave the area and tells parents to tell their kids to leave "before the situation escalates."

A Living Wage For Musicians? A Bill Before Congress Gives Hope For Just That: americanbluesscene.com/2024/04/a-livi…
Radio as a medium is in trouble, and that's largely because of the misleadership of the biggest corporations and the private equity companies that have driven an extractive business model, laying off local talent, failing to invest in local programming.
This is how it should be, grateful for this rare leadership and hope other presidents follow his model of leadership.
Notable—unlike other schools, Wesleyan Uni says it will not clear an encampment so long as it remains non-violent: "This morning you can find pro-Palestinian protestors camped out…as long as we all reject violence, we have opportunities to listen and to learn from one another."
Anyone have a Mac that runs OS 9 and wanna check this out? Will send it to anyone interested. (And thanks to @dada_drummer & exact change for putting it out way back when!)
We just submitted our first co written article together for Encyclopedia VA on the Virginia Folklore Society & hope to share that link soon! It’s been an amazing experience researching this stuff & we’re hoping to hold open info meetings soon if you want to learn more 🪕❤️
Ribot on Grimes' playing here: "It’s the only record in which Ayler really plays standards and spirituals... the bass playing on that is revolutionary. It kind of invents a new role somewhere in between a traditional, supportive bass function and a counterpoint/soloing function."
Trying to get this Hildegard von Bingen scale going right now on my guitar. One of the first times in a while that I have been moved so deeply by a piece of music out of nowhere. What an amazing thing to hear a piece of music for the first time.
Ren and Stimpy Space Madness episode is one of a million greater theatrical experiences
Was ‘AVENGERS: ENDGAME’ the greatest theatrical experience of all time?
When streaming pays nothing, artists look to touring for income. However, costs have risen, payment for shows has stagnated, and many artists can no longer afford to tour. Read the full article by @DanielDylanWray on the Guardian site.
New @guardian article outlines how difficult it is to be a touring musician. From bands playing 100-cap rooms to 2,500-cap rooms, most tours result in a loss (according to the budget sheets The Guardian looked at for this article).
Peaceful student protest has long been a catalyst in our movement for justice—and should be met with thoughtful dialogue, not state sanctioned violence. The work of healing is not possible if we meet trauma with more trauma. We cannot make the same mistakes of generations past.
@dada_drummer deep McLuhan…just rapped at the hardware store abt streaming & they said it was a good day to get stoned bc I was buying some rock…their 🖥 were down & I dropped BOC bc it had been playing & I said it’s cool u still have music likely due to spinning LP, they responded 8 track
@TheChrisForsyth Besides the emotional factor of removing a human being who is likely a close friend from your band, I would argue that the point of playing these shows is to get more shows and you do that by putting your best foot forward. Live drummer >>> drum machine 99% of the time.
Happy #IndependentBookstoreDay! Our staff is out and about across the globe this Saturday supporting their local indies—probably no more than normal if we're being honest. For those in the Boston/Cambridge area, @mitpbookstore is open from 12 - 4 pm today!

I echo @RepHankJohnson. Having been a student protestor in the 1990s, I staunchly support the right to free speech + vocal opposition. We knew we might face repercussions, but nonviolent civil disobedience should not strip you of constitutional protections or invite…
