Love this piece by @Dr_Koolkarni msmagazine.com/2020/12/11/kam…

Happy to hear about @DrJFLJackson's award. His wise counsel helped me muster the courage to apply to @UWMadEducation ELPA PhD program. So much timely wisdom re: life and career shared in brief moments that made a lifelong impact. Doubt I'd be where I am without him. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

Honored to have our work acknowledged by @KeithEPhD. Please share this piece with your fac dev coordinators, chairs, deans, provosts, etc! insidehighered.com/advice/2020/10…

@THEEDoctaJ What about researching a myth/truth of higher ed related to access, retention, completion on the student or employee side? I.e. who education was really for historically, meritocracy (or lack thereof), governance, etc.

@SylviaMendozaSD @DrLukeWood I've been thinking about this all day! I've found an IHE article on this subject, and I'm starting to put some resources together. Here's the article - insidehighered.com/advice/2018/07….

@SylviaMendozaSD @DrLukeWood Another article that seems super practical is from U of Washington - washington.edu/teaching/addre…. Please LMK if you come across other resources!

@QuanOso_ @Fharris3 @DrLukeWood Please do - I ❤ it - There's also other activities folks can explore (See Sample Activities & Templates for Exploring Privilege, Power, and Oppression at sites.lsa.umich.edu/inclusive-teac…) i'm taking @Columbia's edx course on Inclusive Teaching RN and it features the wheel activity.

@ValynciaColette @Fharris3 @DrLukeWood I need to look into this activity. I also want to use this with POC educators as we experience the world differently and need to be able to humble ourselves to work with students.

@Fharris3 @DrLukeWood #equityonline What resources do you recommend for educators to use do their own identity an intersectionality work prior to trying to support students of color?

@Aaron_Jones_Jr @Fharris3 @DrLukeWood @Aaron_Jones_Jr one resource I am aware of is NAME.org (nameorg.org/learn/can_i_be…). But I'm curious to hear @Fharris3 and @DrLukeWood can share on this as well.

This isn't necessarily for me but I thought about it as you all were presenting, what are some resources for our STEM colleagues in facilitating culturally relevant teaching? @Fharris3 @DrLukeWood #EquityOnline

Loved this webinar. What are some recommended strategies for enforcing violated shared norms/expectations? #equityonline

Excited to hear @DrIbram at @XrdsEJInstitute's talk tonight - was first in line to get a book! :)

@TonyPorterACTM @acalltomen Are there questions/folloq-up questions you'd recommend to get beneath "im good?"

@pgorski Omg, this is speaking to me right now! I was trying to put into words this very concept. It is my response to some comments that criticized Toni Morrisons call out of Jana Wendt in the Uncensored video that is has been resurrected/circulating. Have you seen it?

Nothing more hypocritical & oppressive than people who take or endorse uncivil (racist, heterosexist, etc.) action demanding "civil discourse" in the face of their oppressiveness, as though directly confronting their incivility isn't the most civil thing we can do.

@robert_finnerty I didn't pick up the vitriol, only resistance to an unfair question. Please help me understand your point. What do you find problematic with Toni's response?

@EspeInAZ What's been the response to this? I'm thinking the same thing. People are afraid of POCs with guns in a different way than non-POCs, right? What's that about?

Does anyone know of something similar to @EmmaWatson's workplace harassment hotline in the U.S.? Asking for a friend? One would think @USEEOC would have already thought of this.

@harassment_free can we process this piece for the people in the back? I feel like the debate about this question exposes how clueless people are about what harassment is/isn't. slate.com/human-interest…

@LangstonDClark @CoachDKR @drabimper @doctafrancique @LatriceSales @B_Crooms @Prof_JWallace @DrRoxbury @JowersWBB @LeahMarie_T @DoctaJackson @DrJOlushola @KJHicks_5 @Timbo_Cole30 @imanitrishawn_ W/ the rephrase: it feels empowering because I am better able to explain the nuances of my feelings of how being black and female makes competing more complex: isolation, simulataneous invisibility/hypervisibility and self-advocacy (because no one is checking on/for you)

What does it mean 2 be at the intersection of Black athleticism & intellectualism?@CoachDKR @drabimper @doctafrancique @LatriceSales @B_Crooms @Prof_JWallace @DrRoxbury @JowersWBB @LeahMarie_T @DoctaJackson @DrJOlushola @KJHicks_5 @ValynciaColette @Timbo_Cole30 @imanitrishawn_

@LangstonDClark @CoachDKR @drabimper @doctafrancique @LatriceSales @B_Crooms @Prof_JWallace @DrRoxbury @JowersWBB @LeahMarie_T @DoctaJackson @DrJOlushola @KJHicks_5 @Timbo_Cole30 @imanitrishawn_ I'm curious...doe others feel similarly?

@LangstonDClark @CoachDKR @drabimper @doctafrancique @LatriceSales @B_Crooms @Prof_JWallace @DrRoxbury @JowersWBB @LeahMarie_T @DoctaJackson @DrJOlushola @KJHicks_5 @Timbo_Cole30 @imanitrishawn_ When I was playing I felt isolated from my teammates (I was the only Black Woman my 4 years) but I couldn't articulate why. I didn't have the language to make sense of mt experience until I started my grad program in Higher Ed. So the sense I made of it over time has changed.
