Mostly black and white drawing depicting a line of dominoes stretching from the foreground back to the entrance of a university building. Next to the front-most domino are a set of scales (like those held by the lady of justice) and an open book. The dominoes are starting to fall. The image text says: STAND UP HARVARD!

All intriguing ...

Friday April 11: @DAIR@dair-community.social presents: Imagining Possible Futures, with two panels and an interactive workshop:

Thursday, April 24: AHOY! European Social Web Day 2025, in Hamburg and online. The website says "We're connecting early adopters across Europe to discuss the Bluesky & AT Protocol ecosystem, helping shape apps, tools, infrastructure, use-cases, and campaigns that earn trust from users, organizations, and policymakers." Last month's ATmosphereConf in Seattle and online was great, and I expect Ahoy will have the same sense of positive energy and range of topics.

Wednesday, April 30: Archiving the Black Web Presents two special conversations on Black contributions to the development of the Web and the future of the Black user experience on social media

  • A Black History of the Web and Archiving Our Existence (Virtual), with @sjjphd@dair-community.social Dr. Charlton McIlwain, Dr. Catherine Knight Steele, Dr. Tonia Sutherland

  • Towards Safety for Black People on the Web (Online & In-Person at the Auburn Avenue Research Library in Atlanta), with @rudyfraser.com@bsky.brid.gy, Dr. Andre Brock, and Dr. Meredith D. Clark

And I'm sure there's more ... what did I miss?
