Hello all,

Anthropology News just published their latest issue, including a wonderful SLA column from Deina Rabie on Zohran Mamdani’s subversion of White public space in his recent mayoral campaign<https://www.anthropology-news.org/articles/how-zohran-mamdani-subverted-americas-white-public-space-with-uncles-knafeh-and-arabic/>. Come for the cute pictures of bodega cats, stay for the incisive but accessible analysis of the semiotic mainstreaming of the Arabic-speaking New York City public!

Best wishes,
Courtney Handman & Siri Lamoureaux
SLA column editors
