Impact Validity is the extent to which research has the potential to influence social or political change, or is useful as a tool for advocacy or activism.

A meaningful moment for civil rights and body acceptance in New York City.

Today, @nycmayor signed our bill banning height and weight discrimination into law.

To build a truly inclusive democracy, we must love people of all shapes and sizes.

"Florida is openly hostile toward African Americans, people of color and LGBTQ+ individuals … the state of Florida devalues and marginalizes the contributions of, and the challenges faced by African Americans and other communities of color." https://t.co/48Rq5RXgLB

@EdKrassen When that censorship is enabling government interference during a democratic election, that should be the line that Twitter doesn’t cross. Much better to be throttled entirely than become the tool of a panicked “strongman” with autocratic impulses.

Perhaps this article from 2018 will help…

Now does it makes sense? According to Garnar only *certain* people in need deserve our help. (3/3)

[Sean G. Massey @impactvalidity]

— Garnar preemptively declares a state of emergency in effort to prevent NYC from sending asylum-seekers (mostly from country’s southern border) to the county.

but what about: (1/3)

[Sean G. Massey @impactvalidity]

— Garnar says the area is “ready, willing and able to assist anyone who is in need of a home - whether it be temporary or permanent – as a result of the violence in Ukraine.”

[Sean G. Massey @impactvalidity]

The racist inhumane panic of certain NYS county officials really sickens me. Our communities should be reaching out our arms to find ways to help asylum-seekers, not building more walls.

Our bill banning size discrimination is passing the council today.

I sat down with @VanessaCNN to discuss this historic legislation. It is more than a legal remedy — it’s changing the culture around weight.

Watch my segment, featuring powerful testimony from @fatfabfeminist.

Dear fellow citizens,

We, The B-52’s, are deeply concerned about the numerous new bills that promote transphobia and discrimination against transgender individuals and drag artists, which have been introduced in the United States. We strongly denounce these bills and stand in

Yesterday, I had to explain to my LGBTQ History class that the song "YMCA" is a gay anthem! Sigh...
