In the review summary we received from an Anti-Racism & Inclusive Excellence Pilot Grant: Significance and Goals (Weakness/Areas of Improvement): "One could argue that there are other groups that experience racism more prominently than the AAAPI community".

@suhemparack Breaking the social media prism by @chris_bail. Thoughtful and interesting to read. For researchers, the methodology appendix is also very helpful.

While it takes longer than expected, our analysis of how large US police departments used Twitter pre- and post- the killing of George Floyd is now published in PLOS ONE (open access) https://t.co/DHwKqcxJQy

Details of published research from funded projects are available on our website. Recent papers have examined homicide risks for those who live with gun owners, and the impact of child access prevention laws on firearm storage practices. https://t.co/AY83588rZA

1/ The *last* thing we need right now is more untested speculation about how to fix social media. We have *research* that can help us evaluate @elonmusk’s proposals to transform Twitter, and many of these studies might inspire him to throw some cold water on his plans 🧵
