I have spent the majority of my career working to make universities and colleges more inclusive. These institutions now face an evolving crisis as outside forces seek to undermine their basic mission. We MUST defend them more aggressively.

Hey academia! Stop...just stop. It ain't all gonna happen before the holiday break. Stop squeezing stuff onto folks' calendars this week!! Move that meeting to January, grade those papers, enjoy the hors d'oeuvres at your lil holiday party, and go calm it down. 🙏#AcademicTwitter

Views | The “unfortunate” persistent and systemic dishonoring of Black scholars, which we contend is rooted in anti-Blackness, has been well documented by Black scholars throughout the years. (by @HiltonAdriel, @DRRWW) https://t.co/3SMmKlogpc

Man, this Eagles team is something special — they just don’t wilt. Best team in football + that 2nd half and OT was Jalen Hurts’ MVP moment.

Today's decisions from the Supreme Court on Affirmative Action represent a significant setback for Civil Rights in the U.S. and are a cornerstone of the conservative movement's coordinated effort to roll back access to opportunity for systemically marginalized Americans.

[Michael Harriot @michaelharriot]

Before you begin your thinkpiece, the Supreme Court DID NOT strike down Affirmative Action

Admission preferences for legacies, donors, employee families and special recommendations are still allowed

The Court struck down Affirmative Action For everyone except WHITE PEOPLE

[NAACP @NAACP]

"In a society still scarred by the wounds of racial disparities, the Supreme Court has displayed a willful ignorance of our reality." —@DerrickNAACP

Today's decision on affirmative action jeopardizes hard-fought progress for Black Americans.

New: The Texas Senate approved a bill that begins the mass exodus of great faculty from Texas universities.

[Sharif El-Mekki @selmekki]

Update: @HiltonHotels employees weren't "aware" I was w' group in a conf. room next door.
(1) The 2 accosters didnt ask me (2) they were trying to intimidate/threaten a Black man w' cops for laying out a prayer rug to pray. What in your policy calls for this level of escalation?

[Shaun Harper @DrShaunHarper]

Wanna know if employees are experiencing sexism, racism, homophobia, and/or (dis)ability discrimination BEFORE you accept a job someplace? In my Forbes article I highlight new @Glassdoor features that might give you helpful insights. https://t.co/9f1AJJ2TJH

[United Campus Workers Arizona @UCWArizona]

Our University of Arizona community is not okay. Less than 24 hours after our colleague and teacher, Professor Meixner, was murdered on campus, we are required to return to work and resume our teaching and mentoring as if nothing happened.
