Thank you for your kind words, very good to hear from you! -- yes, it's remarkable how difficult it seems for many to integrate what for six years has been in front of their eyes so vividly. I love the article on Hull and anti-blackness. On a different note, have you worked on reparations at all?

thanks so much, looking forward to your work on eco-populism, anything already published?
