Thrilled to see my first (!) academic article, a piece Asha Best and I wrote about the intersection of carceral geographies and critical logistics, published in Society & Space
Online 1st: Iolanthe Brooke and Asha Best 'Prison fixes and flows: Carceral mobilities and their critical logistics' journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.11…
🚨NEW: It's officially back-to-school season. Unfortunately, researching and learning about the criminal legal system & mass incarceration is not easy. So we decided to gather resources to make the data more accessible for students & teachers👇 prisonpolicy.org/blog/2024/09/0…
First time at ASA! Excited to share my research about queer subcultural responses to health crises. #ASA2024 🗓️ Saturday, August 10, 8:00-9:30am 📍 Palais des Congrès de Montréal, Floor: Level 5, 512F
Congrats @krisrosentel of @NUsociology for their Grad Student Paper Prize for “Beyond ‘Walking While Trans’: Transgender Discrimination, Gendered Spatial Stigma, and Biased Police Deployment in Sex Work Arrests.” #LSA2024 Award Ceremony: June 6 at 4:45pm! bit.ly/3Kqfdai
Thrilled to be at LSA this year, sharing research about how people are routinely shuffled between prisons - bright and early at 8am! I'm looking forward to a few days full of conversation and brilliance. #LSA2024
Solidarity with arrested NYU faculty!
NYU faculty getting arrested protecting their students. Beautiful. This is solidarity.
The NYPD just pepper sprayed protesters. They’re currently chasing protesters through the streets around NYU.
We are horrified by the arrest of our colleagues at NYU. #FreeThemAll
NOW: NYPD arrests at least a dozen NYU faculty members in the ‘Liberated Zone’ at Gould Plaza Police deployed the LRAD while protesters were praying
At the Dec 13 bargaining session, Northwestern admin offered graduate workers a “status quo” stipend proposal. Let’s be clear—the “status quo” represents a pay cut from 2020 inflation-adjusted levels. And grad workers weren’t being paid fairly back in 2020 either! Fair wage now!
Grad worker's inflation-adjusted wages have fallen 6.7% since Fall of 2020. At the same time, the endowment soared and admin posted $100 million surpluses. Are YOU ready to fight for a fair wage? Join the Rally Monday at Noon in Silverman Courtyard. RSVP: bit.ly/fall-2023-rally
It's not clear what banning physical mail is accomplishing other than enriching this company. The NC Dept of Corrections says it's “safer, faster and cheaper” than dealing with mail in-house. Faster for who? Cheaper for who?
As Audre Lorde said, America is on the wrong side of every liberation struggle on this earth.
Probably the wrong people who should be moralizing about violence are those living in the world’s number one settler colony whose hands are bloodied by the deaths of millions.

Please watch. It doesn’t have to be like this. #secondlook #EndLWOP
Today, @nytopinion released a video piece that uses @VisitingRoomPr interviews to examine our nation’s widespread use of life without the possibility of parole sentences. It asks whether people who have served decades in prison ought to get a second look. nytimes.com/2023/08/01/opi…
