Economist. Alive in a time for change. Believes the discipline can do better.

@uoregon economics department has NOT issued any statement. Maybe the department thinks that since they have ZERO Black faculty, they don't need to speak up. What's up at your institution, #EconTwitter?

Are Econ department chairs issuing statements about these events? If so, what are they saying? If not, why not?

@AssiffSpencer @RavenclawSoc23 @Jill_Fernandes5 This is a civility argument and don’t really mean shit but protect the status quo!

In grad school, I'll never forget the confident Labor student (is there any other kind?) who told me US schools were integrated by 1965 "because [famous labor economist] said so." I had to tell them it was a lie, as both my parents graduated after that from segregated schools...

@jpflores_31 May I ask what the y-coordinates are from and/or how they are defined? I'm new to #TidyTuesday and newish to R in general.

I do love sociology and sociologists, but I know in the Year of our Lord 2020 that sociology, a discipline that has advanced eugenics and continues to thrive on the pimping of black poverty, is not trying to given economists a lesson on ethics. With poor people. Has to be a joke!

“Econs are the cops in the Social Sciences and they show it” is a very scary thought.

@TraderJoesUnion @estebanjq3 @sejr_historian @lesbrains They know who they cater to, both financially and socially.

This thread about better uses of white Americans' time than arguing with racists has permanently changed the way I use social media. Thank you @IjeomaOluo !

[Economist_Working_To Eradicate_White_Supremacy @AnEconomicModel]

@fdolozano @TrevonDLogan Thanks for sharing. Certainly the best statement I've seen so far coming out of academia.

[Economist_Working_To Eradicate_White_Supremacy @AnEconomicModel]

Meanwhile @uoregon is actively disrespecting their Black students (staff, etc.) by issuing an aLl-lIVes-MatTeR treatment via official statement. Unacceptable.

Grown adults can't function under all of this derest, you think our Black youths are processing this healthy, I doubt it, check on your Black kids.

Happy our paper on the academic impacts of free lunch has found a home! Looking forward to sharing a thread about the results/implications once time permits. The gist: free school lunch programs improve test scores. Thanks to my coauthors for your hard work. They are amazing!

good reads for #EconTwitter

Taking a moment to share two recent journal issues focused on #KernerCommission report. Many themes from the report in late 1960s - incl. racial discrimination, police abuse & misconduct, neighborhood inequality & poverty - remain relevant TODAY
