A *Huge* Congrats to @HalleSingh!! The theory in this dissertation was incredible and awe-inspiring, and I can't wait to see where her research goes next. YOU DID THE THING!! 🎊🥳🎊

This was such a wonderful and inspiring panel with terrific research on media, children, and youth!! Thanks so much to everyone who came and engaged with all of our work 🥰

Love when course assignments turn into publications! Read @childhoodruc PhD student Elizabeth Nelson's review of The Disabled Child: Memoirs of a Normal Future, by Amanda Apgar.

And, maybe most importantly, a massive thank you and endless appreciation to @katefcairns for allowing me to explore this in her Children's Geographies course and helping me hone my argument! Couldn't have done this without your support 💖

This one was special - The Florida Project has always been a favorite of mine (for numerous reasons), and I've always adored @Lilfilm's work. Give it a watch if you haven't already!

So wonderful to be included in this exciting collection! A huge shout-out to James for his elite editing, communication, and for organizing all of this great research into one volume! 🩵

The American Sociological Association gives a free year of membership to those who just finished there PhD. I had no clue about this, and I'm guessing many others don't either. Reach out to ASA Membership for the details. rt/circulate widely! #SocAF

We’re back! Excited to share the CFP for our second annual symposium, The Mundanity of Girlhood: Pleasure, Play, and the Everyday, happening April 4-6, 2024 💖 Submissions due February 4th! https://t.co/IXwIxWhLEZ

Working together on a piece with Ingrid was something of a dream come true - this is my first co-written publication, and I couldn't have asked for a better collaborator! Ingrid's a big reason why I've gotten to where I am right now, and I'm endlessly grateful for her support 🥰

A massive shout-out to Debbie, who I published for the first time with via her as an editor for Red Feather Journal over 5 years ago (!!). Her support is incredible and I'm so thankful for her championing of children and youth in media 💕

Getting hard-copy versions of your writing truly never gets old!! Loved collaborating with a long-time mentor of mine and working with Debbie Olson again as an editor. Having the honor to merge scholarship with some of your favorite sci-fi content is always a blessing 🩵

Solidarity forever 📢✊❤️

For anyone attending #MAPACA23, come catch me at any of the Children and Childhood Studies panels today and tomorrow! Tons of terrific presenters and topics to be covered ✨

Our thriving interdisciplinary program bridges critical social science and humanities approaches to the study of children and childhood. Prospective students, reach out! I'd be happy to connect.

I tweeted about turning down an unpaid invited talk as an academic mom & a male scholar commented that I should’ve known how grueling academia was, that I was “disingenuous.” I don’t want a “grueling” life for anyone—I want us all to desire more, differently, & better than that.

Super excited for our next Centering Black Childhoods event, Oct 4, 4:30-6:30pm, in person! Join @childhoodruc for a panel discussion with @whatsPOPPYN, followed by a networking reception with plenty of delicious food. Register here: https://t.co/OgdwewZ3Lb

And, re: my last retweet, it seems like Francis has put together another amazing collection on Avatar and representations of race! Love that he's championing Avatar in academia 😍
