What a gorgeous show. Seeing the men playing dominoes and the vendors😍...it was PR but it felt so familiar to anyone from the islands.

First time seeing this clip from Dr. King's 39th birthday. His friend saying "We're gonna celebrate Martin Luther King's day today" feels so haunting and beautiful since this would be is last birthday.

Black woman against a red background. Title: Spaces for Resistance.

What a cover! In a world that often treats Black women with little regard, my new book defiantly & unapologetically declares that Black women are worthy & that Black feminist thought remains relevant & necessary. www.bloomsbury.com/us/spaces-fo... 35% off Discount code: GLR AT8

I’ll never forget the transcendent feeling of singing Total Praise with my college choir. May his memory be a blessing.

I know Total Praise is Richard Smallwood's most famous song but "Thank You" is the one you listen to when things get heavy. IYKYK.

Richard Smallwood, a soaring voice in gospel music, dies at 77 He became one of the country’s biggest names in gospel, with songs that were covered by Destiny’s Child, Whitney Houston and Stevie Wonder.

Music is a balm and his man's career is a testament.

I actually feel this more deeply than I thought I would.

I discuss one of her lesser known films, Baby Boom, when teaching on media portrayals of gender norms post the Women's Liberation Movement.

They send you the page proofs in a few weeks for final review, but essentially warn you that changing the pagination with edits is a crime comparable to high treason.

My retired mother volunteers at a library and today she was excited to share that someone returned two books: Mine and another about Justice Sotomayor. These are the things that make my little nerd heart smile.

This is the way. There's too much going on. We might as well have our favorite cereals. I don't even correct loved ones when they pronounce the "l" in salmon anymore. We're all just trying to survive.

Yeah, it is. It would be drizzling
*ICE* and folks would be jogging in Cambridge. I only knew this because I'd watch them from my seat in a warm restaurant.
