Humbled to share that I will be the 1st African American (American Descendant of Slaves) man to be promoted to rank of Full Professor at the University of Idaho, the state’s flagship research university. I earned this rank in 5 years and 7 months on tenure track.

Professor Tommy J. Curry incisively demonstrates that, despite presenting itself as revolutionary and Marxist, the methods of BLM the org, ultimately undermined its stated intent—revealing the movement to be more reactionary and anti-militant than transformative.

I am so depressed about the state of the world.

I feel crazy.

Everyone is expected me to produce at levels I produced at in the before times as if my scholarship, my humanity, and my existence are not under threat.

I do my work because I’m me. But I’m not well. I am not…

I am excited to finally be able to share my interview with @DrKesslyn about what I learned from going on a year's sabbatical as a Black man and academic. May you enjoy.

It’s finally here. Please check out my newest article chronicling my recommendations and reflections on why professors should seriously consider taking a Full year sabbatical when the option is made available.

I would be honored to have as many of my village to attend. I am humbled and grateful to have earned this important and prestigious distinction. No tickets are required for the event. However, the luncheon with the President of @Morehouse will be with inductees only.
