Honored to be a plenary speaker for the National TB Conference in Atlanta among scholars I've looked up to for years. I shared my vision for truly equitable research + was able to record a bit for my parents who were floored to see their "baby" in her speaking engagement eraπ₯Ίβ€οΈ

In our study, we found violence by off-duty police, who have unbridled weapons allowance, is racialized, gendered & threatens officersβ own families through murder-suicide & IPV. #Healthjustice discourse on #policing must include off-duty officer conduct #MedTwitter #epitwitter
