1. EotAW introduced me to a nice new academic blog (is it just me, or are academic blogs these days way better than they used to be?) Sample entry: Moms Rising.
2. Via LGM.
3. The actual historians over at EotAW give us some actual history about illegal immigration. Short version: it's always been about racism, yup.
4. Phyllis Schlafly, honorary Ph.D. and Chris Matthews, commencement speaker? I am so ashamed of my alma mater.
5. Gross, gross, gross. Anyone with an ounce of sense knows that acquitting Sean Bell's killers just because they were cops was an outrage. But check out the comments to this brief NYT piece about a protest that blocked traffic for a whopping 30 minutes. God fucking forbid that anyone should give a shit.
