Who is handling extra housework and home schooling in the pandemic era? A survey suggests women are still disproportionately doing more unpaid labor. https://t.co/OJcQ0jSija
#AskReuters Why certain locations? Two charts: one showing the areas that perform lowest on measures of community investment/ vitality, one showing the areas with the most risk factors for COVID outbreak. Tons of overlap. Economic investment (or lack) is one of the roots @Reuters
BREAKING: @BetsyDeVosED just released final #TitleIX rule, which will silence sexual assault survivors & limit educational opportunity. Unconscionable to do this as students & institutions grapple with teaching & learning during #COVID19. We’ll fight this. https://t.co/uXkp1gIB0T

Astroturfing is a huge reason why digital media literacy is so important and can have serious consequences for both our work as social workers and society as whole. Opening up lockdowns before we have adequate testing will result in more lives lost #csusmsw
