A provocative new history of modern black liberalism Black Excellence: Atlanta and the Making of Modern Black Liberalism (U Pennsylvania Press, 2025) offers a provocative new history of modern black liberalism by situating the seemingly conservative tendencies of black elected officials in the post–civil rights era within neoliberal American politics and an enduring black liberal tradition. In the 1970s and '80s, cities across the country elected black mayors for the first time. Just as these officials gained political power, however, their cities felt the full brunt of white flight and deindustrialization. Tasked with governing cities in crisis, black political leaders responded in seemingly conservative ways to the social problems that austerity worsened. Nowhere was this response more evident than in Atlanta. In the nation's preeminent black urban regime, black leaders such as mayors Maynard Jackson and Andrew Young employed the power of policing and the private sector to discipline black Atlantans, hoping they would equip vulnerable communities with the tools to manage the volatility of the era. Danielle Wiggins shows that these punitive responses to the problems of crime, family instability, and unemployment were informed by black liberalism's disciplinary impulse: an enduring tendency to reform behaviors believed to threaten black survival in a white supremacist nation. Forged in response to the violence of Jim Crow, the disciplinary impulse relied upon notions of pathology and its inverse, black excellence. Wiggins identifies several black liberal efforts to cultivate excellent black communities, families, and workers in the post–civil rights era, including community policing, corporate-sponsored family initiatives, and black entrepreneurship. In embracing disciplinary strategies, however, black liberals often focused on behavior at the expense of addressing structural inequality. Consequently, their approaches dovetailed with those of the “New” Democrats, whose post–Great Society social policies were informed by urban black liberals. Black Excellence reveals thus how urban black liberals not only reshaped black politics but, as Democrats, also helped build the neoliberal Democratic Party. Guest: Danielle Wiggins is an assistant professor of history at Georgetown University, where she teaches courses on U.S. and African American history since the 1960s. She is currently researching race and the politics of energy since the 1960s. Focusing on the 1970s energy crisis, her project will explore how black Americans thought about energy, consumption, growth, and sustainability in ways that alternately challenged, intersected with, and radically rethought mainstream energy discourses.

Jess Joseph and Tobias Wiggins to the podcast! https://www.jessicajosephphd.net https://www.tobywiggins.com Rendering Unconscious episode 385. In this episode, I sat down with Tobias and Jess to discuss their special issue of Studies in Gender & Sexuality: “Cisteria!: A Psychoanalysis Against Anti-Trans Panics.” This issue is the first of its kind, bringing together twelve trans and gender-expansive authors (artists, clinicians, scholars, and writers across multiple geographies) to theorize cisteria. This is our reworked concept that flips the long history of psychoanalytic hysteria and examines how cis anxieties are projected onto trans lives at psychical, interpersonal, and political levels. The pieces in the special issue range from analytic essays to poetry, artwork/music, speculative theory, crossword puzzles, collage, and various irreverent riffs taking aim at transphobia through trans world making. https://www.tandfonline.com/toc/hsgs20/26/4 Be sure to check out the Introduction to the special issue “Cisteria!: A Psychoanalysis Against Anti-Trans Panics.” https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/15240657.2025.2599019#d1e292 Link to their upcoming free event: Spring Meeting Pre-Conference Workshop: Cisteria!

We invite you to tell us which of these stories is real, and which are fake. For instance, did two female ICE agents really pretend to have car trouble outside an illegal immigrant's house, just to arrest him when he came out? Find out.

Do we need to redefine "privilege," back to what it originally meant out of its current highly-social context? Probably!

We know we want kids to have choice. As much choice as possible in creating the education that is meaningful and helpful for them. That choice can come through choice over content, medium, expression of ideas, types of discussion, seating in the classroom, what to work on when, when to take a break...there are so many possibilities! If you make it a professional challenge to start seeing the possibilities for choice, you'll find them everywhere! As I've been working on choice as a theme for The Lighthouse this month, I knew that I wanted to create a final choice board project adaptable for any text that would provide a range of options for students. But I also knew I wanted to avoid the pitfalls of some of the choice projects I designed for my own classroom, when I ended up having to create seven different rubrics and rewire myself for a huge range of requirements on my different project options as I graded them. While I was glad to give my students those choices, it was frustrating how long it took to complete my comments. So I took some of my favorite types of projects, what I've learned about creating linked hyperdocs, and my strong desire for an easy grading situation and mashed it all up into an adaptable final project with nine choices, including one that allows students to create their own way to make meaning from what they've studied (so really, a million choices). I'm going to walk you through the process today, so you can do the same next time you'd like to create a project full of options, gifting your students agency as they synthesize what they've learned and create something new.
