I intuitively figured out so much of this during my first year of grad school, but now that it’s a paper maybe some of y’all will pay attention?

most police are not from and do not live in the communities they are policing. Paid, outside agitators.

#BlackintheIvory Being told that I was too “abrasive” and “defensive” during my dissertation defense.... operative word is “defense.” During the deliberation, I went to the bathroom & cried. Returned to the room still sobbing. No one followed up w/ me to check in.

Being #BlackintheIvory is thinking that being the "first black person to ____" is a compliment. It's not. It's an example of the systemic exclusion alive and well TODAY. 300 years and no black graduates? You can't possibly think that's bc none were smart enough to go can you?

Being #BlackintheIvory is being required to do unpaid labor: getting colleagues to recognize their anti-blackness, doing the diversity work bc your program won’t hire diverse faculty, mentoring other POC students. Meanwhile your white colleagues get to just focus on their science

When I told my medical school appointed advisor that I was in my second term of being our medical school class president- "It's so hard being a white male in medicine now that they are giving away our leadership spots to people like you" #BlackintheIvory

Being black in academia is constantly seeing people who've excluded you promoting themselves as leaders in inclusion and diversity. It's watching people use the success you achieved in spite of them as evidence that they support black people. #BlackintheIvory

#BlackintheIvory I finished my doctorate and applied for jobs a search committee said "we're not sure if you can handle a R1 since you went to a HBCU and not an institutional peer." Meanwhile in my four years as faculty I have more pubs than that person in their 20yr career

The fucked up thing about the #BlackintheIvory hashtag is most of us are sharing our safe stories. Marinate on that for a minute.

Being told by white faculty that my dissertation using oral history to examine Black subjectivity was “not sociology” and having to change my dissertation chair because of my choice to continue with the project. Then winning the ASA best dissertation award. #BlackintheIvory
