Racism is a distraction. Most critical race scholars want to show how that distraction is intricately linked to the making and maintenance of racial inequality. But most conventional scholars get in their feelings cuz they are contributors to the distraction
Really cannot overstate the mental health impact of spending 11 years getting 3 degrees to become an expert in the intricacies of how intersecting systems of oppression produce suffering and then having your job just be thinking about oppression and suffering all day every day
It's alarming that another scholar used my dissertation proposal as an abstract for a grant award. Though my thesis moved beyond the proposal, how do we protect our work, especially when grad students and junior scholars are repeatedly advised to share our ideas and works?
What’s there to even say at this point? In the country with the highest rates of pregnancy-related deaths and severe morbidity of any high-income nation, more pregnant people will die preventable deaths or suffer from the lifelong effects of near-death experiences.

If you take a radical community program + then tightly regulate it/squeeze the life out of it to comply to the expectations and demands of the carceral state so you can “make a change in the system” — 1) it’s no longer the same program & 2) you’re not “achieving” what you think.
Death by climate crisis. Death by abortion ban. Death by police violence. Death by ethnic cleansing. Death by state execution. Death by COVID. Death by school shooting. Death by deportation. Death by transphobia. And we don’t have a concrete plan to stop any of it.
Many social science disciplines over-invested in quantitative methods at the expense of accurately and adequately historicizing, conceptualizing, and theorizing racism. This is why you think that race is a demographic and control variable in quant methods.
“We cannot liberate abortion with just feel-good vibes…we believe reproductive justice and abolition are the keys to liberating abortion. Liberation calls for an investment in people and families.” —@RBraceySherman + @byreginamahone in their brand new book Liberating Abortion
I hope this research encourages others to use a Black Feminist approach in their work and avoid using frameworks or typologies that minimize Black women’s violent care experiences at the hands of the healthcare system! #CiteBlackWomen #EndObstetricRacism
This can’t be overstated — the Maternal Health Package @MassGovernor signed into law today is a historic step forward for families and birthing people in MA! With this law, we will improve maternal health outcomes & expand access to midwifery care across our state!
If and when Kamala is elected, we will have had to two Black presidents, but zero African American presidents. That is telling. Of course, I’ve long argued that the specificity of anti-African American, antiBlackness and the ways in which it has structured Amerikkka.
Thrilled to announce that my scoping review, which caused much contention is now officially published! Some said it would never get published & even tried to bully me over it. Grateful to the GOD-sent mentors who stood by me through it all. Believe in and stand up for yourself!
So excited to read (and cite) this very timely piece!
New pub: "On Joy and War: Black Feminism/Intersectionality"💜@zakiyaluna @BlackFeminisms @drmariajohnson In this Annual Review piece, we think through the always-in-vogue topic of "intersectionality wars" but look to Black Feminism and Joy for answers annualreviews.org/content/journa…

QUALITATIVE RESEARCH IS EMPIRICAL RESEARCH
Today makes 1 month in hospital. Without saying too much, PhD students and academics PLEASE always always put your health first. Don't just recognise your unhealthy work and lifestyle habits, do something about them NOW! 🙏🏾
first words Sonya Massey said at her front door were “don’t hurt me” she was told “why would we hurt you, you called us” when have those words meant anything when your black and woman in this country when do those words protect you from not being murdered in your kitchen,…
