Blaming DEI programs for the tragedy that is the American Airlines crash is nasty work.

Asked my media writing students the morning β€œwhy is the freedom of speech and freedom of press important?” and received 25 blank stares for a solid 2 minutes. We have got some work to do this semester, y’all.

β€œThe bitch ain’t Roman? The bitch ain’t Roman, the bitch not from Rome, and bitch we ain’t in Rome. So why are we acting like that’s a normal thing to do?”

To know if something is a nazi salute or not, you need look no further than how nazi’s have responded to it.

Just so we’re clear:
1. Audiobooks count
2. Reading is political
3. The orange man is a piece of πŸ’©

Thanks for stopping by πŸ’ƒ

There is something to say about the fact whoever shoveled this plaza very deliberately plowed the majority of this snow in front of and on to #MatthewShepard β€˜s memorial bench.

One wild aspect of elected office is way Republicans use LGBTQ politicians as a confessional booth.

Nearly every day in the Montana House, Republicans would apologize for their votes, tell me they wish the culture war would move on, etc.

But rarely would they actually change their vote.

If you are at #NCA2024, reminder: Palestinian Comm Scholars are asking folks engage in a pressure boycott. This includes forwarding resolutions supporting Palestine in all divisions, sections, caucuses, and at LA, discussing what happened at #NCA2023 & what’s happening in Palestine at the conference

I’ve begun a starter pack featuring members of Communication Scholars for Transformation. If you’d like to follow comm professors working to improve diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging within the field and beyond, check them out! Certain to be rich discussions. #DEI go.bsky.app/KfMpyoH

Say hello and ask question! I was really shy my first NCA because I didn’t want to bother people, but I have yet to meet another scholar who wasn’t willing to make some time to speak with me.

If you’re coming to #NCA this week, Dr. Vinita Agarwal and Dr. Leandra Hernandez organized what is going to be a phenomenal set of conversations about mental health and social justice. Come stop by and say hi!

Good morning, I'm trans.

I'm ignoring news about who thinks trans people deserve rights & bodily autonomy. I'm focusing on being out & supporting trans ppl in my communities.

Here's a list of resources, I forget who made it initially (sorry!) but it looks good.

There are 320 flags in this installation. Attached are 320 names. 320 lives lost to transphobia this year, and I know of at least one not accounted for.
The more I think about it, the more I fear the coming years.
