  3. Cancel Culture in 1832 Sounded Pretty Fierce – Jamelle Bouie<\/a>
    \nWhat Alexis de Tocqueville wrote about cancel culture and democracy.<\/li>\n

  7. In Defense of Debate – Jill Filipovic<\/a>
    \n“…whether I like it or not, abortion rights are <\/em>up for debate. My choice is not whether I live in this world or my ideal one; it is whether I show up in the world I live in to defend abortion rights or not.”<\/li>\n
  8. The Look of Gentrification – by Darrell Owens<\/a>
    \n“If you think of gentrification as coffee shops and bike lanes then you don’t understand gentrification at all. It’s about what’s inside, not outside.”<\/li>\n
  9. The promise \u2014 and problem \u2014 of restorative justice – Vox<\/a>

  10. His software sang the words of God. Then it went silent.<\/a>
    \nA really interesting article about a widely-used program used to train people to sing Torah – but after the creator died, the software wasn’t updated and it seemingly died as well. Good news that came up after the article was finished:     People are developing emulators<\/a>.<\/li>\n

    \nI’m still in shock about this. I haven’t eaten at the Roxy in years, but I used to eat there all the time: Decent diner food and sensational atmosphere.<\/li>\n
  12. Opinion | The Senate approved Daylight Saving Time year-round accidentally. Blame Putin. – The Washington Post<\/a>I had no idea that the year-round Daylight Saving Time amendment was sneaked through the Senate this way. It’s appalling behavior (and maybe unlikely to get through the House?), but also, I’m amused.<\/i><\/li>\n
  13. The SAT Isn\u2019t What\u2019s Unfair – The Atlantic<\/a>
    \nMaybe I missed it, but I don’t think the author compared “top tenth” style programs to SATs, in terms of increasing admissions for low-income students. Nonetheless, an interesting article.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
