Friends, please keep shining a light on Columbia & Yale and the criminalization of students there. But where is the outrage when this happens at @cuny & Brooklyn College-when working class students of color are criminalized instead of Ivy League students?https://t.co/xDoslwGUq9
Loved participating in this Race and Latin America forum with my piece on Afro-Brazilian actresses. Curated by Reighan Gillam, my comrade in all things race, Brazil, and media. #race#LatinAmerica#BlackWomen

@taoleighgoffe@LaboratoryDark@AfroAsiaGroup Congratulations! I just started as Associate Professor of Puerto Rican and Latino Studies at Brooklyn College. As a Brooklyn girl, I’m coming home. Let’s collaborate!
@Reighangillam@BlkPerspectives@AAIHS@IllinoisPress I am so excited to see the knowledge from this book and so many Afro-Brazilian interlocutors engaged with! I have learned so much from you Reighan over the years.

Emocianda para voltar à Universidade de São Paulo na sexta-feira, 17 de março, para apresentar minha pesquisa. A análise discute como a branquitude é enfatizada e reforçada pelas representações das mulheres afrodescendentes nas telenovelas.

Returning to Universidade de São Paulo on Friday, March 17th to present my research on race and telenovelas. I will discuss how whiteness is reinforced through media representations of mixed Black women.

January 8th in #Brazil with the trashing and storming of Brazilian Congress and the Supreme Court aligns with the US’s January 6th. Fascism undergirded by white Christian patriarchy in the US and Brazil will take us all down unless we show solidarity and instill #democracy.
