I did it y'all! I swam for a whole hour this morning. Now, to just get my distance up on the way to that mile! If you never knew anyone with active brain cancer who could research, teach, dean, and workout 5 days a week, now you do!

Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

I thought about writing a long, fancy essay, but I'm a keep it simple & to the point: When I got to Stanford, I very intentionally put Black in the name of my lab & every course I created. You work with me you researching Black, you take a class with me, Black gonna be right on your transcript.

Been thinking about this poem a lot. I learned it in school. I wonder where that is even possible now. If We Must Die by Claude McKay If we must die, let it not be like hogs Hunted and penned in an inglorious spot, While round us bark the mad and hungry dogs, Making their mock at our accursèd lot.

Some higher ed organizations who are loudly circling the wagons against federal funding cuts were oddly silent or circumspect about the earlier attacks on CRT and DEI. I wish there was a better understanding that these attacks are coming because we failed to repel those.

Don’t just say DEI as if it’s a bad word. Spell it out. Say diversity, which is the lifeblood of American society & culture & innovation. Say equity, which a just society should pursue. Say inclusion, because decent people believe in increasing belonging, not isolating people who are different.

Yes, everyone is correct. They're not advocating for a "strict meritocracy." Affirmative action is over. They're now suing over the very presence of Black people and Latinos in elite education and white collar careers. They're advocating for resegregation. Call it out every time.

It is simply not enough for universities to say, “Our grants & research offices are looking into how research will be affected by the latest directive.” University leaders must actively and very publicly make the case for the kind of work many of us do. The silence on this front is deafening.

For academics who need a little hope tonight. I went into the Stanford bookstore today, & my undergrad research book was right out front. There was 1 copy left. I’m so honored to be speaking at our big Stanford undergrad conference this spring. We can’t give up. We have come too far. #BadLab #WMSURE

NSF grantees - people who have already received their grants based on a previously funded and approved research proposal - are being told to stop any activities related to DEI and accessibility. Call this what it is: government censorship of ongoing research projects. www.opm.gov/policy-data-...

My op-ed: "Colleges and universities ... seem to be hoping that their muted responses — and affirmative acquiescence — will spare them. ...This sort of acquiescence will not only fail to protect institutions, but will expose all of us to further repression." stanforddaily.com/2025/01/28/f...

I rely on federal funding to do the research that is part of my job. I have been federally funded by NSF and NIH my entire career. I have educated students, and that funding helped people become teachers, professors, and all-around good people.

I believe in inclusion because I am not a segregationist. I believe in decolonization because I am not a colonizer. I believe in trans rights because I believe all people have human rights. For more, see pretty much everything I’ve ever written or edited. #MondayMotivation

My cancer is back for a third time. Again, in my brain. My oncology team is optimistic that it is from the pause I had to take from treatment to allow my heart to heal. I'll scan again in two months to see if there is progress.
