I don't have an issue with social workers, necessarily, but rather I maintain a deep and evolving vendetta against the institution of social work (s should all social workers, in my humble opinion).
Social workers ARE proxy police officers...often holding client lives hostage

This fall, I start my PhD at Cornell’s Government Dept. I am the first Franco to graduate from college and I’ll be the first in my entire family to earn a PhD. I grew up in an abusive/neglectful household filled with drugs, alcohol, abuse, neglect, and gang violence.

ALL THE RUMORS ARE TRUE YA: 📢📢📢📢
I left a PhD program bc it no longer worked for me.
I BOUGHT A HOUSE 🏡💵
I started a Masters program that I already LOVE.
Oh and did I mention that I’ll own my own practice/business in the next few years??
And y’all worried about me?🥱

Sounds like Ithaca. I felt like I was unwelcome there. Cornell was another story. A mixture of genuine welcome and relentless remarks on my intelligence. “Wow, you’re so intelligent…” (like every other day). After about three weeks I started to catch on from encounters with

Today I decided to cut ties with my abusive mother. After tossing and turning all night about what I should endure for my sister and my father's sake. But I can endure no more.
I want a different life for myself...one with less violence.

I received nearly straight A’s my entire life despite having to survive years of familial and domestic violence. I began college at 15 years old. This is my story and I am no longer ashamed of it.

Today was my first day of classes as a PhD student in Government at Cornell.
I don’t know much, but I know I’ve come outrageously far. And I’ve got plenty ways to go. Congrats to everyone on their first day. We’re doing the damn thing. 💫

I've met some MoVal cops....yall LOVE to wake up, do a little methamphetamine, and pull Black people over for no reason. Yall love to arrest CHILDREN AT SCHOOL. Y'all love to chill in your police cruisers and stare at underage girls. The whole lot of you is weird & aint shit.
The protest has now encountered Riverside County Sheriff's deputies as it nears the Moreno Valley City Hall. Officers are standing by and have had no confrontation with protesters so far.

I've changed my mind. I'm not convinced universities should open in-person classes under any condition. This entire world is experiencing a pandemic.
This unchecked culture of "the work must go on" seems quite cruel and negligent. We haven't even mourned those who have passed.

Hi, I’m a queer brown 23 year old on her way to getting her PhD. I like coffee and contemplating the utility of existence. I write poems and fall in love. I love first and ask questions later. I would probably like to be your friend. Happy Pride. ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🖤

Self-care won’t solve the daily trauma of living in America. We are exhausted, burnt out, and plainly traumatized.
Yet the wheels of capital keep spinning, and we are all expected to go to work tomorrow, go about our daily lives as if we are not injured, bruised, and breaking.

I am not so much celebrating a Biden-Harris victory, but the success of Black, Indigenous, Latinx, LGBTQ+ and differently-abled organizers who have been working for YEARS to make this possible.
They did this and we owe them a tremendous amount of respect and dues.

Just learned about the 1918 Pandemic and the Anti-Mask League of San Francisco. Created by wealthy elites who claimed wearing a mask was an infringement of their constitutional rights, this group’s argument helped cause the second AND third wave of the pandemic.

As I continue my journey in Political Science, I am acutely aware of the importance in making my language accessible. Even at the cost of sounding less “knowledgeable” to my peers.
Grandiloquence doesn’t serve the people. I want to build ideas that serve the people.

I’ve known Avonte since we were 15 yrs-old. He’s genuine, innovative, & gives more than he receives. His food truck, Rollin Roots, serves amazing vegan meals to the San Diego community, including free meals to folx in need. Please spread the word & if you’re in the area, stop by!
Starting a business in the middle of a pandemic is tough, but we are committed to providing delicious vegan meals to our community. If you're in the San Diego area, please stop by & order some dank ass vegan food! We're open 12-7pm DAILY @ 8040 Armour St. Thanks everyone! 🙏

Please understand that this is what life is like for so womxn, especially women of color... I speak about my story to highlight disorder and issues of abuse in communities of color. This is a systemic issue of abuse, control, misogyny that manifests itself in the home.

Similar to an abuse cycle experienced by domestic violence survivors, we will continue to be surprised by America’s actions until we have truly reconciled with the fact that this is a violently racist country with roots grounded in white supremacy, genocide, and slavery.

We demand that the university expels this student. If you are truly in solidarity with Black people during this time, you will not encourage racism on your campus by allowing this student to continue learning there.

As someone who was abused for 22 years by family, friends, and lovers, hear me when I say that survivors of abuse need RESOURCES. (Not unsolicited and anecdotal advice.)
So roll your sleeves up. If you see someone in need, do the work. Share the load.
I really wish I had grown up with more media about abuse — and, more importantly, existing post-abuse — that carved out a grey area between “you will be broken forever” and “date someone good and everything will be great!”

Defend Black people every day of your lives. In your relationships, jobs, assets, and investments. Every day. And it shouldn’t have to take any of this for folks to barely wake up to it. Black people have defended this country more than anyone else.

Until (non-Black) Latinxs reckon with our identity’s inherent anti-Blackness, our history of anti-Black racism in Latin America & the U.S., and take responsibility for the mass oppression and murder of Black peoples, our participation in the liberation struggle is violent.
