Today, a student of color asked me how he can support me as a faculty of color. It’s the first time a student has ever asked me that, and it blew my mind. It felt so refreshing to be seen in this way and served as a reminder that I’m not alone.
@danielhighered So pleased to see this important work published! Kudos to you for hanging in there throughout the process and your responsiveness to the feedback. It was well worth the time!
Working as an associate editor on this journal under the leadership of @doctorkag was one of the best career decisions ever. This journal is author-friendly and values care and constructive feedback in the publishing process. Consider applying!
https://t.co/3E2u5as292 It’s published!! One of the hardest pieces to write made so much better with awesome collaborators, Chris, @TerahJay & @Erin_Moniq. Grateful to the student activists who continue to hold us accountable for living our equity and justice values. ✊🏾
If one more white person who after doing racist ish says, “I don’t have a racist bone in my body…” 1. Why bones? Bones can’t be racist. 🙄 2. Yes you do. 3. When people show you who they are, believe them. The End.
This is what it means to do meaningful work in academia. It’s not about chasing pubs, but rather taking time to carefully do work that makes a difference and centers those “on the margins of the margins,” to quote @TerahJay. Ecstatic to see this piece in @JDHEtweets!
