Our book, "Beyond the Wire: US Military Deployments and Host Country Public Opinion," officially launches tomorrow! One random person that retweets this and is following me by 5pm PDT on 10/17 will get a copy. More details below. smile.amazon.com/Beyond-Wire-Mi… #AcademicTwitter 1/5

Native women activists continue to inspire me. A sobering reminder I have a higher chance of dying than getting my PhD. #MMIW #MMIR

QOTD from Aunty Abigail from a webinar on Dobbs v Jackson impacts on Native reproductive health. @echohawkd3

For children of the 90s, our paper "married with children" on intermarriage + racial attitudes just dropped (2016 CMPS). Mahalo to my co-authors: Natasha Altema McNelly and @edwarddvargas. Find it @PGI_WPSA.

Today, I celebrate a new milestone. One of many I hope to receive. My first peer review rejection from Political Science and Politics! With @drsteveu

Today, I sit with a lot of gratitude for Dr. @TonyAffigne, who after providing kick ass feedback on my WPSA conference paper, took the time to connect me to scholars working on Indigenous issues. An hour conversation and a couple of emails can provide so much to junior scholars.

Missing and Murdered Indigenous Persons Conference Idaho: The next steps. Reppin Boise State.

Outside of my dissertation committee and a few lone folks holding down the fort in Gender Equity and Student Equity...Boise State had used up and bled out all my favorite people.

@MarnieNichole Keep us posted!!!

@drsteveu I'm like 99.9% certain I'll never be published 🤔😬😭😆

@JohnHolbein1 It's awful when graduate students of color know their findings will never show significance because settler-colonial white supremacy works exactly as it was meant to.

It boggles my mind that many academics still think that their study has failed if the results aren’t “statistically significant.”

Shout out to a badass academic Auntie @ngoctphan and this group of Indigenous Hawaiian students doing incredible work. You make me feel at home. #WPSA22

Shout out to WPSA women of color mini conference talking about negotiating salary, benefits, extractive labor, abuse and harm in the academy. #Reppin_REP

@drsteveu Congratulations 👏

My Academic Auntie dreams come true next week. My Native Hawaiian Survey team will meet the Guahan Survey Team @WPSA. Look for us at panels in REP, APAC-mini conference, and the gala/fundrasiser/dance! We have two undergraduate students traveling all the way from Guam.

I co-authored this piece with Dr. Lane Gillespie from @BoiseStateSPS criminal justice program. This work is not possible without our Idaho Tribal communities and grassroots orgs working on #MMIP boisestate.edu/bluereview/ele…

Data disaggregation helps us understand differences in outcomes across AAPI groups, but that doesn't mean there aren't opportunities for solidarity and unity across groups. Learn more from @karthickr and @ProfJanelleWong below! twitter.com/i/spaces/1jMJg…

@JenDSchneider You stop that right now! You're an inspiration and I would not be where I am without your leadership!

I got to meet @mcclaurintweets at the American Anthropology Association national conference. She recorded me, answering "why anthropology?"
