Rose, Nate, and Jules, students at Peabody and Roosevelt, out here for their teachers. “We’re French, so we know how to strike,” Jules’ mom told me. “It’s important to stand up for teachers. We’ve had wonderful teachers.”

The viral $3.50 fish sandwich everyone's obsessed with — a Chinese bakery’s fried fish bao — is drawing 2-hour lines in San Leandro. Is it the new Filet-O-Fish? @soleilho.com tested it with everything from Puerto Rican pique to jalapeño pickles to find out.

Rahawa the GOAT!!!
Some great news. My hybrid memoir IN OPEN COUNTRY will now be published by Little, Brown. It’s about freedom of movement and stillness in the US, and the ways capitalism & settler colonialism have shaped (and continue to shape) the answer to who has either across time. I also do a lot of walking.

“The Super Bowl seems like a quaint thing to protest during a civil war,” a friend told me. Well, yes. But there's more to the story.
Unwelcome statues, beaches full of trash, homeless sweeps, and a $5M price tag infuriated many in SF when the Super Bowl came to the Bay Area in 2016. 10 years later, as the big game circus returns, the city is quiet. @nuala.bsky.social asks, what’s changed?

SF Hated the Super Bowl in 2016. A Decade Later, What’s Changed?
Ten years ago, protesters took to the streets to slam San Francisco’s Super Bowl City and call for an end to homeless sweeps. As the game returns to the Bay this week, why are things so quiet?

In 2016, the last time the Super Bowl came to the Bay Area, SF residents vandalized statues, threw a nationally-covered protest, and bemoaned the high cost to taxpayers. Why are things so quiet this year?
I break it down in @coyotemedia.org.

People really are out here tryna do a journalism. Which is so necessary when the big media outlets have been failing us.
"This is the worst fucking time. But watching people's response to ICE has just been the most affirming thing in the world.” We interviewed our friends over at @racketmn.com about what it’s like to cover the crisis in Minneapolis as community-centered journalists

Proud to work at @coyotemedia.org where the question wasn't "are we participating in the national strike?" but rather "how are we participating in the national strike?"

We aren't publishing in our usual Friday slot & our paywall is down for the day. It's not a huge thing, but it's what we can do.
