Dedicating this award to the memory of my aunt who passed away last September leaving a huge gap in our lives. I am immensely grateful to my students and to my colleagues who put so much faith in me and awarded me this high honor 💕🙏🏽💕

So sad that @thechinaproj will shut down. @goldkorn @KaiserKuo and @robertguterma were champions of balanced, even-handed reporting on China and I was honored to work with them (and hope to again soon)

I don't recall ever receiving pushback from people in those parts of the world when I use it. Collective non-West is too integrated into Russian and Chinese state discourse/propaganda, so I only use this phrase when talking about Russia/China

@mcgrgrr @stadenesque are there any good polls of public opinion in Africa re: china over the past decade or two?

@arinamuresan @ChinaGSProject I’m in a very similar position: finger hovering over the like button 😂

@ChinaGSProject @stadenesque all I can say about the newsletter today is: Lord, please forgive me for the tweets I want to like 😅
