This is one of four excellent articles intended for use in the classroom. The others in that special issue focus on decolonial, phenomenological, and critical participatory action research. They are student-friendly and historically embedded descriptions that make clear how to do each one well!

I continue to be horrified that he acts with overt cruelty, impunity, and immaturity and that we struggle to stand up to him in the moment or to hold him accountable after. Where is the video of this moment? Why isn't it everywhere?

We publish so many phenomenal articles in Qualitative Psychology, but this is one that really touched my heart... It is scholarship-activism in action and I wanted to post it today when so many people have acted to reject anti-trans legislation. It affirms this caring.

ABC Pulls Jimmy Kimmel Off Air for Charlie Kirk Comments After F.C.C. Pressure

Trump is launching a full blown attack on free speech while his harem of billionaires buys up every media platform. This is no coincidence. It’s a coordinated attack on your fundamental right to speak freely without worrying if you’ll lose your job or worse.

The president of the United States is threatening to strip the citizenship away from an American who says things he does not like.

And our media will invariably present this not as a major crisis, an impeachable offense that must lead to his immediate removal, but as β€œa spat” between Don & Rosie

After Trans People, Trump Now Erasing Bisexual People From Stonewall National Monument The "History and Culture" page no longer includes bisexual rights.

1. Earlier this year, Trump erased transgender people from the Stonewall National Monument webpage, digitally burning the history we helped create.

Now, he's doing the same to bisexual people.

No marginalized group will be safe from the admin's moving targets.

Breaking: The Trevor Project received a stop-work order last night on its contract with the national 988 suicide prevention hotline. The Trump administration is eliminating the option for LGBTQ callers to the hotline to press 3 and connect with someone who specializes in LGBTQ mental health.

Thank you to @hcrichardson.bsky.social for pointing out that we make money on our public lands every single year. Why would we sell them when they are a reliable form of income?

BREAKING: A federal judge says the termination of NIH grants for research on diversity-related topics by President Trump's administration was β€œvoid and illegal,” and accused the government of discriminating against racial minorities and LGBT people.
