LSW & Social Work PhD Candidate at The Ohio State University studying activism, LGBTQ+ issues, racial justice policies, and sport for social justice (he/him)
Started off the first day of school with someone yelling “gay” at me as if it was a slur. Sir, it’s 2021 and I am proud. Thanks for noticing my favorite part about me 🏳️🌈💅🏼
Check out my team’s latest pub about research considerations when working with heterosexual-identified men who have sex with men! We hope you find this helpful when designing your future studies!
Consider submitting your student-led work to @JASPRSportPsych or, if you are a faculty member, be sure to encourage your students to consider JASPR as an outlet for their work!
Why are med schools offering classes on structural racism, you ask?
Because of Henrietta Lacks
Because of the Tuskegee Study
Because of experimental procedures on enslaved Black women
Because of unnecessary procedures on women in ICE detention centers
Because if you are Black or Hispanic & come to a hospital with a heart attack, you are more likely to experience a worse standard of care
The reasons are endless.
🚨🚨Check out my latest publication in @JDHEtweets with @Dawn_AB & @drsamanthabates on how college coaches engage in advocacy for LGBTQIA+ rights and racial justice! I’m super proud of this one and hope you all enjoy it: https://t.co/cRcBCjpgoC.
Super excited to share that our paper “LGBTQ+ Grassroots Activists’ Perspectives on Banning Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity Change Efforts,” co-authored by Katie Haus, Tanner Mobley, and @Kristen_Mark was just published: https://t.co/29znvxbP9o
MAINE DOES NOT:
Require background checks on all gun sales
Have a red flag law
Prevent domestic abusers from accessing guns
Ban assault weapons
Limit magazine capacity
Require concealed carry permits
Restrict open carry
Have a waiting period
Currently, as the city of Lewiston, Maine is being gunned down, keep in mind: it took Congress 22 days to elect an extremist that supports loosening gun safety laws.
They continue to put people in power who will watch us die— don’t forget that.

Florida has effectively banned the teaching of AP Psychology.
Depriving students of knowledge about the human mind-including mental health / illness, relationships, and the brain-will harm future generations in the name of culture war. Shameful.

1. Last week, 7 GOP state attorneys general sent a letter to Target warning that selling LGBTQ-themed merch "to families and young children" may be illegal
The letter alleges selling "LGBT-themed onesies, bibs, and overalls, t-shirts" could violate "child-protection laws"
