What You Can Do About Antisemitism
What You Can Do About Antisemitism 1. Recognize, call out and act against antisemitism on the right Antisemitism is central to right-wing movements. People on the far right see Jews as the ones “pulling the strings” or “behind the scenes.” Jews are seen as responsible for “the great replacement” of whites by people… -

On Objectivity: Amy Coney Barrett and Corey Booker
Corey Booker is so good here. If we had to have centrist presidential and vice-presidential candidates (not my preference), I wish he had been one of them. He has always had animating substantive moral commitments--to racial justice, to the environment--even though from my standpoint he caves too much to corporations. Here, he gets Amy Coney Barrett,… -

No Justice, No Peace
Jason Bean / Reno-Gazette Journal Why is anyone surprised there is violence? Our government is genocidal. Meat-packing plants that do not protect their poor and POC workforce from a deadly virus are required to stay open while billionaires are not required to do anything. Why aren't hotels requisitioned for the homeless? Instead, they're put in… -

“One is not born, but becomes, Yellow Vest”
Zigzag. Out with the old, in with the new. We're not quite sure where we're going. But we know what we want to leave: 'flexible' workplaces where people don't matter; universities more like biological processes than forums for deliberation and debate; institutions that thrive by making others precarious, isolated, displaced and hungry. Without knowing the shape… -

Change Accomplished
History rolled into the neighborhood this weekend. I wish the Garat/Humphrey House had stayed in its general original location and been part of a historical gateway to UNR. But if that was not to be permitted, at least the lovely building was given a new home and not demolished. Welcome to the neighborhood! -

Changing Places
Good-bye to this craftsman style, Chinese influenced, UNR gateway area house, neatly set up to move to another neighborhood, Reno’s Old Southwest. The university is putting a massive new Business Building in the house’s place. Porthole windows and Chinese detail grace the building. But a piece is missing! In pieces,…

Another Round of Neo-Nazi Flyers in Reno
Another round of flyers in Reno from the local subgroup of the anti-Jewish, racist and homophobic organization, Daily Stormer. Every national Stormer flyer campaign has included flyers in Reno. It is not hit-or-miss. It's every one. Will they be in your neighborhood next? Will the Nazis be in your neighborhood next? -

Change, Rolling Around Town
In old neighborhoods, we use the past to imagine a future. It's not quite the same when material history rolls around town. Here's a strong old house--once a paragon of stability. Is it about to be wheeled off? Or has it just been wheeled in? Is it coming? Or going? It looks lonely.… -

Neo-Nazi leaflets in Reno again
Daily Stormer, a nationally prominent neo-Nazi organization, has an active subgroup in Reno, Nevada, formed (according to entries on Gab) about a year ago. Subgroups are called Stormer Book Clubs. The local Reno group has leafleted Reno as part of two prior national leafleting campaigns organized by the national organization. Local residents are aware of… -

That’s how it is in Paris
My photographic style is a response to what I see in France. I have visited Paris every year since 2015. What photographer would not want to capture the elegance of even the smallest details there? Here's an architectural detail I saw in 2016 on a walk back to my Belleville apartment from a look at…
