In the past month, two youngins referred to me as an “Issa Rae vibe” and I’m adding that to my CV lol

If that doesn’t say anything about my personal growth over the past 5 years, I don’t know what does 😂

Love is the most powerful force in the world. It has the ability to conquer hate, overcome fear, and transform society.

[Arndrea Waters King @ArndreaKing]

To live together peacefully and build the Beloved Community, we have to acknowledge and appreciate our differences with one another and commit to creating a society that is more just and equal for all.

I had the incredible opportunity of meeting Prof. MLK III and Arndrea Waters King!! I’m so grateful to be reminded of the power of staying grounded and faithful. And I got to tell him I was born on his daddy’s birthday! Shout out to everyone dedicated to building beloved communities ❤️

The work doesn’t stop ✊🏽. In our @IJQMonline article, @LatoyaTeague and I developed Black ancestral text analysis, a qual method to help educational researchers re(cover) ancestral messages in Black intellectual archives. Read here and share widely:

What's up! I am looking to interview Black queer folks who are working/have worked at a Texas-based adult sex store. Each interviewee will be paid $75 for their time. 🌈✊🏿 Please share!

Congratulations to @NiaJayBaker for her innovative, profound dissertation on black women, sex work & meanings of race. It's a beautiful thing to see a PhD advisee become a doctor! Bittersweet to say goodbye, but I couldn't be prouder as she heads off to @usouthcarolina #sociology
