Race Science never left us. It pervades everything, and there's loads of work (by scholars such as Angela Saini, Dr's @SoSowemimo @IshitaMarwah and Madina Wane and many more) pointing out how it trickles down and manifests in pop culture too. 'Good Jeans/Genes' isn't by mistake.

For anyone who is interested in tackling this issue please go and read the fantastic @fivexmore report that came out today 👉🏾

I can’t leave this app because the stupidity on here is so amazing 🤣 . Imagine discovering pidgin, a dialect spoken by over 100 million people, like its brand new.

🧵Zelensky being publicly berated by US president and VP (a mass media spectacle par excellence) has left western Europe stunned, shocked, and floundering. There was much ‘unprecedented’ about the spectacle but I want to talk about something that isn’t being discussed.

I had the absolute pleasure of reviewing Emergency: COVID-19 and the Uneven Valuation of Life by Claire Laurier Decoteau Univ. Chicago Press (2025) for Nature . Go have a read 👉🏿 https://t.co/xXvhV9z6f6

As a Black woman who hopes to bring new life into this world someday, I found writing this feature both challenging and insightful. Thank you @SoSowemimo, @RaneeThakar, @GillWaltonRCM, @Marianfknight, and @mamadinya for sharing your knowledge and experiences.

Been grafting raising a whole human but I’m very lucky to have a platform and I’m very excited to be @MotherhoodGroup Black Maternal health conference this year with so many other fantastic people. This conference should have to exist but it’s vital. 👉🏿

"We should not be giving Black people the same vaccine schedule that's given to Whites, because their immune system is better than ours." ---RFK Jr. So what vaccine schedule should I have received? His answer was dangerous. I will be voting no.

Breaking my silence on here to share this piece by @Nmozz who I’ve had the incredible good fortune to enter motherhood alongside . She has also had to manage the loss of a parent too ❤️ .
