I spent a lot of time over spring break clearing out bookmarks and saved articles from Instapaper. Normally I post this list when I get to ten, but here are twenty articles worth reading:

The New York Times on a swatter that finally got caught after years of swatting.
A podcast about the app Yik Yak, which is totally dead near me but has fascinating, good and bad, uses elsewhere.
Some of the family members of Sandy Hook victims have been terrorized by the solipsistic, egomaniac, "Truther" movement.
This interview with Arsene Wenger is fascinating.
I am sharing these writing tips with my students this semester.
Roqayah Chamseddine has become one of the most important voices in my daily social media life on a variety of issues, but particularly the connection between mainstream feminism and the right wing ideals of Hilary Clinton and other neoliberals. Over two essays, Rejecting Bourgeois Feminism, and The Problem With Bourgeois Feminist Defenses of Hilary Clinton she strongly criticizes "white feminists" for their allegiance to destructive liberal ideas. I used to have a lot of respect for at least one of the people Chamseddine mentions and it is sad to see, and they certainly aren't the only ones, how so many have fallen to liberalism* and its destructive ideas of war mongering, union bashing, and shilling for Wall Street. *Plus attacking women for being "crazy," and "hysterical" as seen in the linked articles. How liberal of them.
I always love interviews with Junot Diaz and this one is no exception.
51 years after his assassination, Jacobin looks at the legacy of Malcolm X. I teach his essay Coming To An Awareness of Language every semester and it is always one of the most popular with students.
An excerpt from Liza Featherstone's upcoming book about the faux feminism of Hilary Clinton.
Nicole M. Aschoff on a feminism without capitalism.
FAIR's excellent tribute to Ben Bagdikian. Reading his book The Media Monopoly as a teenager absolutely changed the direction of my life; I will be forever grateful to him.
Black Agenda Report on Miriam Makeba.
Liliana Segura on Hilary Clinton's indefensible stance on the death penalty. Bernie Sanders' support of drones is not much better.
On the "goddamned exploitative farce" that is academic publishing.
Evan Narcisse on the politics of Black Panther.
Grant Wahl on the incredible story of Leicester City.
