A Chicago Pope implies the existence of an MLA Pope and APA Pope

The Doctor has arrived. Ncuti Gatwa bringing some purple eleganza *finally* to the #MetGala #Superfine I can’t find the designer 😭 help!

If you'll excuse me, I'll be listening to Pale, Pale Moon on loop for the next 48 hours...

If I'm accidentally ignoring your emails, know it's because I'm still thinking of #Sinners. Word of advice, if you're trying to be productive, DO NOT start listening to the soundtrack. #SinnersMovie #RyanCoogler #MilesCaton

Wow! #Sinners www.aaihs.org/the-sinners-...

independentthought Trump’s Education Department says it will begin collection on student loans for over 5 million borrowers in default. Garnishing their wages to recollect the debt

Funny how the administration hates the DOE until it's time to collect debt. This is not going to go well. Most students don't have the money to pay back these loans due to insane interest accumulation and a challenging job market. Go ahead and keep making threats. People still won't be able to pay.

The Keller Center's History and Legacy of Black Entrepreneurship Spring Roundtable is happening tomorrow, 12:00 PM EST! I'll be speaking more on street vending bondswomen, and Jill D. Snider will share more of her work on the life of Lucean Arthur Headen. kellercenter.princeton.edu/events/histo...

Join me tomorrow for my talk on street vending bondswomen in antebellum Charleston. "Exploring Entrepreneurship As Resistance Among Black Women Street Vendors" is being hosted online by Princeton University's Keller Center as part of their series, Exploring Black Entrepreneurship in America.

RIP to Val Kilmer. Tombstone is one of my favorite films. Time to watch it again.

👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

I hope everyone is paying attention. #JohnLewis #CoryBooker #GoodTrouble #History #Blacksky

Less than ten minutes and history is made. Senator Cory Booker using his final minutes of this moment honoring John Lewis. Real tears. I love us. #BlackSky

I was okay until Senator Booker started talking about saying goodbye to John Lewis. #GoodTrouble

Come on, Senator Booker! ✊🏾

Imma need Senator Schumer to sit back down.

So which Democrat Senator is next up? Booker should just be the beginning.

Cory Booker is doing the damn thing and we need to tell him thank you. Consider writing to him. He is reminding people what passion in politics looks like, what John Lewis prayed for, and what the ancestors died for. No matter your politics, you should have respect for this act of Good Trouble.

I tried but I’m going back to bed. On the bright side, I feel so crummy from being sick that I don’t have the energy to be stressed out. Hurray?

I’m still down from this never ending flu. I’m flying out to a conference tomorrow and I’m coming to grips that I won’t be able to fully participate because I’ll need to spend most of it in the hotel resting. I could use a prep talk. My self-care without guilt goal isn’t going well. #blackademics

Get Free COVID tests while you still can. My entire family is sick, so I want to see if it's Covid. covidtests.gov

"This poses a dire threat to the American people and our way of life. Seventy-seven percent of young adults do not qualify for the military based in large part on their health scores." There it is. Unhealthy = security risk = "justification" for political violence. Do not let this slide.

An American flag built on the backs of Black people... Black music protesting white political terror in registers they never hear; reminiscent of ancestral spirituals embedded with instructions for runaways All this in New Orleans... What a moment

Happy Black History Month.

Fabulous 🇺🇸💥

I randomly started reminiscing about #blacksolstice from a few years ago. I want my superpowers.

I cannot hide my anger to spare you guilt, nor hurt feelings, nor answering anger; for to do so insults and trivializes all our efforts. Guilt is not a response to anger; it is a response to one’s own actions or lack of action. - Audre Lorde

When politics fails the least of these, art picks up the pieces and speaks up. Tonight world-class musical artists spoke up for diversity, equity, and inclusion, for trans right, for protecting women and children. Art does that because it is where humans are seen for all they are.

Janelle is just everything when they perform live. The energy!

This was such a clutch play.
