Please read my new essay in @TheLancet — When dignity meets evidence: https://t.co/ZWdfJEKlwl

There's a kind of knowledge practice we may call 'dignity-based practice'. It respects the dignity of marginalised knowers. It's been slow to take off, unlike 'evidence-based practice'.

It takes a monster to kill children. But to watch monsters kill children again and again and do nothing isn’t just insanity—it’s inhumanity.

Fantastic article on COVID, environmental injustice, and what those two topics have to do with one another from Derrick Jackson.

Give it a read!

@AmericanAir could you please respond to my DM? I know you’re slammed with requests, but your email said you’ll cancel our flights tomorrow unless we connect. We’ve been trying to get in touch with you for three days.

[Ashley Bennett @ashibennett]

@AmericanAir can you help sort this out? You changed our family’s itinerary, and emailed saying we had to call to confirm or you’d cancel the reservation. I appreciate the callback system, but we’ve gotten two callbacks before 5am. I sent a DM here yesterday, no response yet.

Today is bittersweet.

The singing of Amazing Grace at the Biden Covid memorial event can be heard echoing through an eerily silent DC near the White House.

Michigan nurse Lori Marie Key, who went viral singing 'Amazing Grace', reprises the song.

Don’t take this the wrong way, but the kindest thing you can do for healthcare workers right now is to take every measure you can to avoid becoming our patient.

It is a political choice to strive for equity and justice in health. A new report from @GloGovProj and @WHO calls on world leaders to unite in their response to the #COVID19 pandemic and other imminent and long-term threats. https://t.co/jMiy8lSFpf
