“Black studies as a heuristic, as a way of being, as sitting at our grandmother’s feet. There’s a vocabulary of being that can offer a different sense of how we move into the world.” - Wilson Okello(@wilson_okello) #BlacknessOtherwise

Decolonization isn't about publishing an article, modifying a syllabus, or creating a DEI committee. It's about dismantling structures, institutions, & ideas. It’s also life-affirming. It’s about organizing politically to reclaim territories & collective subjectivities.

"The entrypoint into a critical quant practice is not the technical, it is the political and the historical"-- Dr. Vero Vélez. And @lipatel brought us that political, that historical, and that spiritual WHY for our research. #quant4what

So woke up to the news that CRT is banned as the greatest threat to Western Civilization. This is McCarthyism 101. I've often wondered what our allies would do when they came for us. Now we'll see. bitly.ws/9DEr

Critical race theory helps contextualize how systemic racism affects us. Trump and his party perpetuate systemic racism, but pretend that it doesn’t exist. Of course he wants “sightings” of CRT reported. This is white supremacy trying to cover its tracks. theguardian.com/us-news/2020…
