Sounds like I’m not putting anything on my canvas site anymore.

Thank you for this, which I hadn’t encountered and now want to read.

I would love to buy a copy of this when you’re done!

Thank you!

When and where, Roz? We’re reading CJA in my class this semester and I think my students would be really interested to hear you both speak.

REPEAT AFTER ME (but really, after Neil Kraus):

Wage stagnation and underemployment are not problems that education can fix. We cannot "upskill" students into well-paying jobs that do. not. exist.

Before Spotify Wrapped Became A Cultural Phenomenon, A Howard Intern Helped Shape The Viral Tradition We Know Today | Essence Jewel Ham’s internship-era concept helped transform Spotify’s year-end roundup into the interactive experience millions share today.

Every time a new app or site provides me with a "Wrapped" I think about the somewhat unsung Black woman who created it as part of an unpaid internship.
