You may know social determinants of health but what about POLITICAL Determinants of Health? @DanielEDawes shines a light on yet another reason why we have to pay attention to politics even if we really, really, really don’t want to! @SatcherHealth https://t.co/jgV7pxY08e

We deal w/big problems in our work. A reminder to take joy in the small things-my son's reaction to being told he can stay in PJs all day since school is closed for teacher in-service #smelltheroses #smallwins

Little brown & black children spending their wknd @ the Natl Arboretum exploring science & loving it! Amazing what can happen when kids are given opportunities #dmv_nsbejr #STEM

So sick AND tired of employers business saying they can't survive if employees get a living wage, benefits, & ya know, dignity & respect. Know who else cried about the collapse of their business models? Plantation owners. #Striketober #GreatResignation #CommonGood

Overheard: I'm tired of trying to fix things, I'm ready to start building #systemschange

[Elephant Stories @StoriesElephant]

I’m no political scientist so I’m not near qualified to do a full review but I can say it was a good read. No, it doesn’t do a deep dive into the -isms at play; that is beyond the scope (👈inside joke for the researchers). Shout out to @DrAkilahWB for the recommendation. 👍

Bayard Rustin (Mar 17, 1912 - Aug 25, 1987). Civil Rights Activist doesn't capture his immense influence. Civil Rights Leader of Leaders is more accurate. #someoneyoushouldknow

A trip to the ER, meds, a few days bedrest and I'm back to normal. How many others would've seen their lives go off the rails if they had bn in my shoes? #unaffordablehealthcare #nosickdays #medicaldebt

Hurricane Katrina survivors aren't just in LA & not all have visible scars. Friends, neighbors, co-workers may be fighting PTSD triggered by Ida right under our noses. Check on folks. Listen. Be compassionate. #ptsdawareness #hurricaneida #loveoneanother
