E.J. Ramos David, Ph.D.

@93nido @UAAWBB Thank you for your kind words. 👊🏽

@ejrdavid @UAAWBB Lets go champ!! Peace and blessings EJ, grateful to have just found out about your work recently. Reading your books have opened me up to understanding myself better in context to growing up in the western world 🇵🇭

It’s been a while since my last tweet, but I’m just so proud of my 7th grader as she was invited to play with Dillingham High School while they were in Anchorage for the @UAAWBB Team Camp last week. 😊 Here are some of her buckets during the camp. 🏀 #KeepGettingBetter

As we rebuild, we must restore the Green New Deal promise of public land and water use.

A Republican state representative asked Rep. Justin Jones what he means by the chant “No Justice, No Peace.” His response is worth hearing in full:

@arttherapinay @HelenHsuPsyD Be careful though. I know someone who brought their copy of “Brown Skin, White Minds” to a first date, let their date borrow it, and never got their book back. 🤣

@HelenHsuPsyD @ejrdavid Lol if it turns into a date I’ll be bringing my copy!!

#datingasaFILIPINOtherapist I matched with a Filipino male who immigrated to the states when he was young and he immediately had to tell me he doesn’t haven’t an accent and how he worked hard to get rid of it. And that’s how colonial mentality can show up in dating y’all 🤷🏻‍♀️
