I launched my new book - THE 272: THE FAMILIES WHO WERE ENSLAVED AND SOLD TO BUILD THE AMERICAN CATHOLIC CHURCH - bringing 7 years of research and writing into the world. It's the story of the church’s roots in slavery and a family’s fierce will to survive https://t.co/GluZ2W0NHe
New discovery by @VU_Biology Professor Aaron Bauer, PhD, and research colleagues unveil the story behind the largest gecko species in history in this @ScienceNews piece.
Happy Juneteenth from our @NovaMBB and @VillanovaU family! A day commemorating the end of slavery in the United States! It is important to recognize the contributions and impact made by Black Americans!
As we celebrate Juneteenth & consider the long process of emancipation, I spotted a fav. item in the Williams Collection that captures another part of that process: a copy of the Ordinance of Emancipation that declared free enslaved Louisianans not freed by the orig Em. Proc.
On #Juneteenth, we celebrate Black Americans & some of our nation’s greatest strengths – equality, diversity & freedom.
Though injustices still exist in our country, ED continues to work towards equity for all by lifting every voice in our schools & communities. #Juneteenth2023
Big news earlier today at @USNatArchives when Dr. Colleen Shogan, Archivist of the United States, announced plans to have the Emancipation Proclamation on permanant display in the Rotunda at the National Archives Museum.

In our research we found that women were told they were too young to lead, too old to lead...and middle age wasn't quite right either. As it turns out no age is the right age to be a woman leader. See my latest @HarvardBiz article for solutions.
