A cool piece on my recent paper with @Yiming_V_Wang, by the @UAlberta where I collected most of the data for this study as a PhD student.

Includes some behind the scenes moments

An incredible find involving a large group of researchers, including the amazing @PalaeoJenn! The video explains part of their fascinating approach to working with old and very brittle remains.

[MPI-GEA Jena @MPI_GEA]

A new study led by researchers from @MPI_SHH @museumsofkenya and @CENIEH details the earliest known modern human burial in Africa. The remains of a ~3 year-old child were found directly under the sheltered overhang of Panga ya Saidi cave in Kenya https://t.co/8l8dojLRjq

@riveramichael @tinysapien I love all of these. Sorry I missed them first time around!!! Also... Thumb and trapezium only now just 'clicked'...

[K Bish @Kat_Bish]

@riveramichael @tinysapien If it helps, my colleague Emily H. (not on social media), taught the alternative: "so long to pinky, here comes the thumb". Proximal row lateral -> medial, and then distal row is medial -> lateral.

Amazing resources for learning (& teaching) race, racism, ethnicity, patriarchy, gender, and intersectionality. For those actively trying to decolonize your syllabi and improving our learning environments.

Y’all.

I have a shit ton of free learning materials on my website https://t.co/7wmFopTnzb

There are essays regarding race/ism, decolonization, gender, sexuality, & a shit ton of other stuff.

If you don’t know what this stuff is or are confused, here is a place to start.

Kathleen Lowrey's dismissal sparked controversy as some say the U of A’s decision to remove her is an assault on academic freedom, while others say it is a first step towards helping the department become more inclusive to all.

Here's the entire interview with @kimlatricejones and David Jones Media. Take a second to watch the whole thing because she makes even greater points throughout the entire interview than she does in the viral clip that is circulating. Her Monopoly comparison is spot on.

[Shardé M. Davis, Ph.D. @DrShardeDavis]

If you’re white & are incredibly uncomfortable w/ reading, seeing, and hearing our stories of racism and anti-Blackness via #BlackintheIvory Imagine feeling like that every day of your life. Y’all don’t even know the half of it. Don’t turn away & forget. Sit with it & do better.

@garbanzochroni1 Hate is not excusable, and I'm sorry that any of the defence falls onto the onus of students (especially those the hate is targetted at). I've activated some of my networks to see what else can be done to protect and support students. Thank you for speaking out 💚💙💜❤️🧡💛

[K Bish @Kat_Bish]

To any colleagues and students currently feeling unsafe with the transphobic rhetoric happening at #UAlberta . I stand with you. It is not OK. Academic freedom does not mean freedom of expression of hate. ⚧️🏳️‍⚧️

Trying to learn, listen, and act in support of #BlackLivesMatter

Which means having conversations with privileged folks (like myself) to change the mindset.

This article is one of the many resources that helps with those conversations:

I submitted this while at #AAPA2019 and had no idea if/when it would be published. Here is the first PhD paper, with support of my awesome co-authors (including @GarvieLok @MargrietHaagsma): https://t.co/AUsGf9rX3h
