    If 2 weeks has passed & you still haven't read that article in that tab you're saving, just close it. I had to stop lying to myself today and close 12 tabs.

    It’s amazing how quickly they will shift to this model for every reason except to support their chronically ill or disabled staff and students.

    Another good day to remind people that just because an academic is renowned for their work in social justice, antiracism, decolonisation, or equality, it does not mean they are invested in this work at a personal level. Some are very good at researching these topics. That is all.

    People must evolve past the idea that racism is interpersonal. Many racist people fall in love & marry outside their race. They either see that person as an exception or they are attracted to the power they have over them or both. All while upholding the superiority of whiteness.

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

    This is literally a masterclass in talking to people who do not understand that the United States is an EMPIRE. Basic facts… Haiti has been punished for 200 years by several empires simply for being the first colony of enslaved Africans to liberate itself.

    We need to talk about the treatment of Black African women athletes who are being put through horrible “genital check” violations to prove that they are in fact women. This is not okay.

    I’m happy for all of you getting booster shots. Truly. But as of yesterday only 633,344 Malawians are fully vaccinated. Out of 18 million citizens. We are entering the fourth wave with omricon spreading. This is an injustice. #VaccineApartheid
