I appreciated having the chance to talk about Integrated on Michigan Public Radio. Michigan and Detroit are central to the story of Integration and the increasingly strident resistance to it in the 1970s.

For the first time in my life, a physician (my new ENT, a WM) knew what the research said about Black women and offered it to me without me having to ask.

More of this.

AAG Detroit filled my heart and spirit. So many important moments, warm hugs, and solidarities formed. At the top of my list is laughing with Gwendolyn Warren, our Honorary Geographer, and witnessing Rickie Sanders get her flowers.

What a gift.

In light of the upcoming @geographers.bsky.social conference, take a look at the many incredible co-editors of the journal! Our editorial team is comprised of those with a passion for critical geography, and work without compensation to keep ACME's commitment to #openaccess possible.

Promotional poster for an American Association of Geographers webinar titled 'Resistances: The Anishinaabe of Michigan' scheduled for February 26, 2025. The poster features a map of Michigan, an image of a speaker named Natasha Myhal from Ohio State University, and details about the webinar's focus on historical and contemporary struggles of the Anishinaabe people.

The story of the Anishinaabe in #Michigan is one of #resilience in the face of systemic challenges. Natasha Myhal will delve into historical and contemporary struggles as the #Anishinaabe navigated settler tactics restricting access to ancestral lands.
