Thanks @AACPharmacy for the recognition for our manuscript re: microaggressions in academic pharmacy.

This microaggressions research started years ago when I was a Chief Diversity Officer at 1 of the oldest Colleges of Pharmacy.

@ATTHelp I don't have any messages in my DMs

[Nicole D. Avant, PharmD, BCACP @RxDrAvant]

@ATT just scammed me. They told me I'd get a $1K for trading my phone. Instead, they gave me $23 for a functional and operational Galaxy phone.

They said I hadn't disabled an activation lock. Idek what that is. It wasn't in my instructions.

[Nicole D. Avant, PharmD, BCACP @RxDrAvant]

@ATTHelp No I don't believe so. I'm referring to a $1k trade in credit to upgrade to s23+. I was told by the store AND customer service that I'd get $1K. Instead I'm getting $23 because I'm told Samsung had an activation lock on the phone. I followed every step provided by ATT.

@cclareMDMPH @NationalMedAssn The roots of fat hostility is rooted in the trans Atlantic slave trade and I find the way clinicians uphold white supremacy exhausting.

[Nicole D. Avant, PharmD, BCACP @RxDrAvant]

@cclareMDMPH @NationalMedAssn I wish clinicians understood how problematic their internalized fat antagonism is grossly harming patients, physically and psychologically. Using behaviors as a way to explain health chasms allows us to escape from the impact of larger systems of power.

The lessons we haven't learned in the 30 years since the Hill/Thomas hearings.

Patriarchal tactics from Thomas to Kavanaugh in defense of sexual harassment and assault. Watch:

Dave Chappelle was not “canceled.” He’s been invited to the table for transformative dialogue but won’t show up. That’s not “cancel culture,” but an avoidance of accountability. He’s no victim. The man is worth $50M. Unlike many trans people his comedy stigmatizes— he’ll live.
