  How did medieval Africa impact the direction of the Middle Ages internationally? 
  When most people think about the Middle Ages, they think about Europe. Images of knights, jousting, and even Christianity seem ingrained in our understanding of the medieval era. However, the Middle Ages stretched far beyond Europe, which was struggling to rebuild after the fall of the Roman Empire. Europe may have fumbled along for about a thousand years, but Africa became a powerhouse of trade and wealth. 
  For years, many scholars have ignored medieval Africa. There aren’t many written documents from the African kingdoms, so historians rely on outside sources and archeology.

  Why Intelligent People Do Stupid...

  Intelligence is often seen as the key to making sound decisions, yet many highly intelligent individuals find themselves making choices that defy logic and reason. This paradox is at the heart of why even the smartest people can sometimes act in ways that are seemingly irrational. Despite possessing vast knowledge, sharp problem-solving skills, and an ability to think critically, intelligent people often fall victim to cognitive biases, emotional triggers, and societal pressures that lead them to make poor decisions. Understanding why this happens requires an exploration into the intricate relationship between intelligence and decision-making. 
    
  At the core of this paradox lies the idea that rationality and intelligence do not always go hand in hand. While intelligence may increase the ability to process information and analyze complex scenarios, it does not always shield individuals from the cognitive biases that distort perception and judgement. In fact, many intelligent individuals are even more susceptible to these biases because they rely heavily on their analytical skills, assuming that their logic will always lead them to the right conclusion. However, this overreliance can blind them to the emotional and social factors that influence decision-making, causing them to overlook key details or make choices based on faulty assumptions. 
    
  Furthermore, decision-making is not solely a rational process; emotions play a crucial role in guiding our actions, and they can often override logic. Intelligent individuals are not immune to emotional influences such as stress, fear, or the desire for instant gratification. These emotions can cloud judgement, leading to impulsive decisions or the failure to consider long-term consequences. This is particularly true in high-pressure situations where the stakes are high, and the need to make quick decisions can push even the most intelligent person into making mistakes.

  Progressive Dystopia - Abolition...

  San Francisco is the endgame of gentrification, where racialized displacement means that the Black population of the city hovers at just over three percent. The Robeson Justice Academy opened to serve the few remaining low-income neighborhoods of the city, with the mission of offering liberatory, social justice-themed education to youth of color. While it features a progressive curriculum, including Frantz Fanon and Audre Lorde, the majority Latinx school also has the district's highest suspension rates for Black students. In Progressive Dystopia Savannah Shange explores the potential for reconciling the school's marginalization of Black students with its sincere pursuit of multiracial uplift and solidarity. Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork and six years of experience teaching at the school, Shange outlines how the school fails its students and the community because it operates within a space predicated on antiblackness. Seeing San Francisco as a social laboratory for how Black communities survive the end of their worlds, Shange argues for abolition over revolution or progressive reform as the needed path toward Black freedom.
