Feel free to get in touch if you have an idea you'd like to discuss. We're keen to support new authors!
The FL Legislature is considering a union-busting bill that would make it harder for teachers like me to serve our students. This bill is unconstitutional and unamerican! #VoteNoOnSB1296

MUST WATCH: @CBSMiami investigative report gets to the truth behind SB 1296. This bill is not by or for Floridians, but out of state interests dead set on erasing working families constitutional rights to collectively bargain and speak for themselves! cbsnews.com/miami/news/gov-d…

It was beautiful to be with the best of Tallahassee today, protesting at the Florida Capitol. The vibes were good, but the anger is fierce.
I have a new piece out in the @PolTheoNetwork: "There is Power in Negative Political Theology."
It's the first piece in a symposium on Critical Political Theology, together with King-Ho Leung and Jenny Leith. See the link in the first comment!

The Journal of Ethics in Antiquity and Christianity has just published my dialogue with Morwenna Ludlow on peaceful speech and political conflict. Since calls for civility are often weaponized, it was a gift to think this through with someone from whom I have learned so much.
If you're thinking of doing a graduate degree in Religion, consider FSU!
With 23 full-time faculty, we welcome students in a wide range of topics and traditions - including funding for both MA & PhD programs. It's a great department, with strong support from the university.
Interested in applying to one of @FSUReligion's graduate programs? Drop by our virtual open house from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. on Friday, Dec. 12, to learn more about the department and how a @FloridaState degree can prepare you for success.

Thanks to Michael Goldberg & Christian Schlenker for translating it, and for the invitation to participate in this special issue.
I'm back at home, basking after a beautiful weekend at the @AARWeb - filled with lots of love, some beautiful brutalism, and a delightful doppelgänging. You all are brilliant, a jolt of hope in this difficult year. ❤️
If you're in Boston this weekend, consider coming along to this panel on sovereignty, aesthetics, and theatrical power - with Ludger H. Viefhues-Bailey, Alana Dickey, Nichole M. Flores, Miguel Vatter, and Arthur Bradley. It's going to be great! @PolTheoNetwork
FSU's lovely Department of Religion @FSUReligion, celebrating the publication of *Empire of Print* by Sonia Hazard. Such a great group of people!
I know a number of us are joy-scrolling today, so here's a bit more encouragement: two lovely letters responding to my piece in the Tampa Bay Times defending the humanities.
