Wow. This video is truly eye-opening. Take a couple minutes to watch this. A mind-boggling visual representation of wealth inequality in America. This sh*t ain’t workin’, folks. #TaxBillionaires #UnionsForAll

Proud colleague alert 🥹‼️ It was a joy to watch my friend @bkwinstin stand on the @TEDxBGSU stage and reimagine a criminal legal system — one that reinvites humanity and dignity to the process. Head here to check it out ⤵️
"We cannot arrest and referee ourselves out of crime. Instead, we need a correctional system full of staff who are coaches, who inspire people, and who are invested in helping people change." Hear more from JSP President Brian Lovin's TedxBGSU talk! ➡️ bit.ly/4cVTVyf

Criminology PhD student CJ Appleton & Cesar & me find that, rather than 'bad peers,' racial differences in delinquency are in largest part due to racial inequities in opportunities to learn journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.… @cj_appleton @NSF @pdxsociology @psu_research

If you think the Memphis police officers had to be white in order to exhibit anti-Blackness, you need to take that AP African American Studies course Ron DeSantis just banned.

DeSantis banning AP African American Studies is a reminder of that old quote -- White privilege is when your history is the curriculum and every other history is an elective.

Today, let us remember Martin Luther King as he was: A Black radical anti-capitalist, anti-imperialist, revolutionary Christian internationalist who was deemed an enemy of the State and assassinated for his radical work. Just about everything else is a lie.

PhD student CJ Appleton & I find that structural inequities (e.g., sector, student poverty) more saliently delineate the racialization of US high schools than the characteristics of schools & teachers typically emphasized for closing racial inequities journals.sagepub.com/doi/epu…

My thoughts on Drew Brees, kneeling, the city of New Orleans post-Katrina & using the military service of others as a cloak for your own agenda.
