Dear Black women, When you navigate anti-Blackness in spaces that claim to be committed to you - may you know that honoring seeking of joy as a self-preservation strategy.

@EconWithDrA @SadieCollective @itsafronomics So heartwarming ❤️

Some Tuesday words of wisdom from our co-founders @itsafronomics and @thefantatraore! #sadiecollective #blackwomeninecon #econoics

Dr. Spriggs was an economist who advocated for everyday working people. What big shoes he leaves behind. A legacy that carries on with his students and mentees. Grateful to have been trained and advised by such a brilliant human. forbes.com/sites/richardm…

Dr. Spriggs was an incredible economist and my introduction to the profession - and certainly was for many of my colleagues at Howard. This news is heartbreaking and I am keeping his family in my thoughts and prayers. May he rest in peace.

@mwkraus Beautiful reflection 💛

PSA to all scholars-please read and cite Black scholars.Especially when studying a topic that has been studied extensively by Black scholars. No you did not invent the topic/question and to pretend otherwise is negligence at best, willful misrepresentation at worst #EconTwitter

@_johnsonator Ah nice! It can certainly complement an understanding of eeconomic frameworks to live and travel outside of the West. What I meant by challenge mainstream economics is - the assumptions that are made about people & economic conditions. Btw, headed to Ghana soon! will txt you.

@TheFantaTraore Actually, it strengthened my understanding of mainstream macroeconomics and provided me better arguments against those who think the West is better

Coming to Ghana has made me a better economist

Don’t be sad bro, everybody is proud of what you did, you made history. ❤️ @AchrafHakimi

Thinking about duaas (prayers) that have been made over the years and being witness to seeing them answered.

@FeliciaAyensua madame economiste, it that the country with the better immigration policy won?

@DJMohogany perioddddd, can’t wait to support you at Afrochella!

No pressure Morocco, just the weight of the entire Global South now solely resting on your shoulders. Bismillah.
