@PeprahDr thank you for opening up PSI 2020 with clear language about how US history and racism have created maternal health disparities. To be clear, racism is the driver of these disparities, NOT race. #PSIVIRTUAL2020

I am grateful to be a part of this conversation with @UNCSON, @KTan_RN, @v_petermann and many of our PhD students; a part of an institution that is committed to racial and health equity. Transparency and accountability are essential in moving forward.

In response to our letter 40+ School of Nursing PhD Students, Deans, and Faculty came together to have difficult conversations about racism. Posting publicly to hold myself and others accountable for creating a better future. @UNCSON

Commenting to credit @v_petermann and @KTan_RN with the careful crafting of this letter, endorsed by myself and our PhD student colleagues. Thank you both for this phenomenal work.

Trump has given a green light to cops and militias to kill people with impunity.

And now illegally activated the military to use force on civilians.

The red line has been crossed.

He must resign. Our lives depend on it.

Trump has given a green light to cops and militias to beat, maim and kill people with impunity.

He has now illegally activated the military to maintain power and use force on civilians.

The red line has been crossed too many times.

He must resign.

Our lives depend on it.

Finland's government has announced a new policy — designed to be gender-neutral — that will grant almost 7 months of paid leave each to parents.

Parents who are pregnant also can receive 1 month of pregnancy allowance.
