For @NewYorker , I wrote about the East Village Eye—a paper with columns by David Wojnarowicz and Cookie Mueller, and one of the first to cover hip hop. It was a peak of my reporting life to go under Bryant Park, where @nypl will store the Eye archives!

92NY, a cultural venue, pulled an event on Friday featuring the Pulitzer Prize-winning novelist Viet Thanh Nguyen after he signed an open letter critical of Israel. The decision drew criticism that the organization was stifling voices it disagrees with.

For @parisreview , I visited the late Carolee Schneemann’s house. Built in the 1750s, it was a center of the artist’s life and work for more than fifty years. The preservation of her home mattered more to Schneemann, she said, than that of her art.

last October, I was reviewing Robert Glück’s About Ed, a book about death. then it became a fall defined by death—in Palestine, my classroom, and my family. here is the essay that review became, on mourning, militancy, witnessing, and politicizing death.
