@drstroman #academics4activism Do not be silenced. Your humanity and desire for racial and social justice means more than any sport scoreboard or records. Align with those who support your holistic excellence and well-being. Efforts to quell our voices will not prevail.

#academics4activism Your voice, mind, and perspectives are equally as important if not more than your body. Go where you can be your holistic self and be supported. More than an athlete. We are the change! Scholar and Athlete Activists United! TOGETHER WE RISE!!!

#WeAreBeacons #BLMDay #UMassBoston #ANecessaryStruggle Be the change. Relentless pursuit for the best humanity.

@AfricanaCarr Yes! A combination of resistant and empower acts across and within time, space and context. #AfricanAmericanSportActvismTypology

Regimes end when enough of us decide to end them. No one action to take. There must be agreement on at least some common objectives and collective action to achieve them. Saving lives + one. Improving quality of lives = another. Stop biggest threats to those two objectives.

@DrTJC I think because it would disprove many mythical philosophies and theories as well as fallacious ideologies, which undergird the foundation of the discipline. In other words, it would reveal that the “emperor” has no clothes.

Salute to #gabbycvdouglas for being an outstanding role model embracing all of her authenticity and greatness! #blackgirlmagic
