Sharing this call for participants on behalf of my brilliant PhD student @michellewytam! She is looking to speak with BIPOC 2SLGBTQ+ folks in Ontario who have used or decided not to use assisted reproduction services, esp from northern, eastern, & southwest ON.

dear #epitwitter - if you were doing an analysis and found adjusted results that were very different from crude results, in the opposite direction than expected, would you/ how would you investigate?

Yesterday, President Biden reauthorized the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA). The law is important to the health and well-being of #LGBTQ people, who face high rates of domestic and sexual violence. Take a look at our new infographic at https://t.co/pDc7ynqw1m

What does it say about American support of professional women’s basketball when Brittney Griner and other WNBA players find themselves being treated better in oppressive countries like Russia and China? My latest column for @TheAtlantic https://t.co/zHJJRfDmQ1

[Charlotte Clymer 🇺🇦 @cmclymer]

Brittney Griner is among the biggest names in women’s sports and she still has to compete in China and Russia in the off-season because the WNBA pays her just $227k annually, around the league max. She makes many times her WNBA salary playing overseas.

Min. NBA salary is $925k.

WNBA All-Star Brittney Griner is being held by Russian authorities after they found vape cartridges in her luggage when she arrived at an airport near Moscow to play for her Russian Premiere League team. https://t.co/3BrIsgYfvT
