There's no feeling like teaching in the very department that empowered me to be politically conscious, setting in motion one of the most liberating experiences of my life: teaching Black Studies ✊🏿📖👩🏿‍🏫

Here's a selfie in the meantime. #BereaBeloved

New study shows white Americans who learn about Covid's racial disparities have:

1) reduced fear about Covid
2) reduced empathy for those vulnerable to Covid
3) reduced support for Covid protections

White supremacy directly increases Covid's harms.
