A bit late, but I was wondering if anyone has any interest in putting together a panel discussion for #ABCT2023 on the obstacles that psychogists and trainees with disabilities face in our field? Would love to include as many perspectives as possible.

My colleague Steven Roberts was recently invited to comment on a "debate" about diversity at a @PsychScience journal.

His experience was troubling and surreal, and lays bare the very biases he studies. He describes it in this important pre-print.

Politicians insisting you “not politicize” mass shootings enabled by horrifying policies THEY take💰to uphold are really just telling you to accept them.

But it’s not acceptable. And they are the ones politicizing by opposing common sense laws widely agreed upon by the public.

I would like to take this opportunity to reflect on what it takes for a trainee to feel comfortable standing up to hate and harm by faculty members. I can only speak from my experience, but I have some thoughts.

I knew suicide rates for Black youth have been rising, especially since the pandemic began. But this lecture by Dr. Benton highlighted many other facts I wasn’t aware of. Gonna share some for folks who are interested.
