Wow. Awful. Shame on gymnastics Ireland for finding excuses for this. She should be fired.

Welcome to Ireland where people get away with racism! This little black girl broke my heart. Don’t skip this post without leaving a million heart for her. Make her famous…

I’ve worked in the arts in Canada for over a decade and did not know half of these artists.

Many Canadians know about The Group Of Seven, but have you heard of the Indigenous Group of Seven? Formally known as the Professional Native Indian Artists Incorporation, it was formed in 1973 with seven Indigenous artists to promote Indigenous art. These are the artists 🧵1/8

We need to recognize the rich countries aren’t rich because of innovation and ingenuity but because they have made ripping off Black and brown countries as their primary industry

France has the 4th largest gold reserve in the world. How? France holds 90% of the gold reserves of 15 African countries and pays 0% interest on what it makes from those reserves since 1945. These nations however borrow from #France from their own reserves with interest!

Relief to see this affirmation. “Wellness programs can often feel like we are blaming the worker — when it is the workplace and the way that work is organized” washingtonpost.com/wellness/…

I would be interested to meet someone who has worked for the public service for more than 6 years who can tell me they haven’t seen anti-Black racism. This would be a person declaring they are totally lacking in observational skills. Please do come forward.

Black workers have turned to the United Nations for justice, after much delay by the Canadian government in addressing anti-Black racism in the public service.

While studying the role of GBA+ analysis in policy, I asked @annaicameron & @LindsayTedds about diverse forms of data & if the govt should fund a pan-🇨🇦 network of scholars focused on #GenderBasedAnalysis & intersectionality ⬇ ow.ly/uHZG50KRRE2 #cdnpoli #SenCA #SOCI

Interesting, from US - side.

There are 11.3 million job openings in the US, which amounts to about two jobs for every person looking for work. And in May, 4.3 million people quit their jobs. If a recession is nearing, it's a strange one in which employment doesn’t seem to be affected.
Last week, I had the opportunity say “I am sorry” and I did say it. I do also use “Take a break” often. Do you have favourites?

Sounds like reconciliation. A bit confused by the “to create a trout farm” part… but I guess still a step?

What I had to say about AI in 2018, and pretty much what I say today.
I want to draw especial attention to the treatment of AI—artificial intelligence—in these narratives. Think of Ex Machina or Blade Runner. I spoke at TED two years in a row, and one year, there were back-to-back talks about whether or not AI was going to evolve out of control and “kill us all.” I realized that that scenario is just something I have never been afraid of. And at the same moment, I noticed that the people who are terrified of machine super-intelligence are almost exclusively white men. I don’t think anxiety about AI is really about AI at all. I think it’s certain white men’s displaced anxiety upon realizing that women and people of color have, and have always had, sentience, and are beginning to act on it on scales that they’re unprepared for. There’s a reason that AI is almost exclusively gendered as female, in fiction and in life. There’s a reason they’re almost exclusively in service positions, in fiction and in life. I’m not worried about how we’re going to treat AI s

"Tone deaf" is an ableist insult. You don't need to use it. Say what you mean, ignorant, insensitive. You don't need to allude to disability.
