Very happy to announce the publication of a new paper led by the amazing @LTeesha based on findings from her PhD research. Was amazing to be a part of such a great team @ledablackwood @Julieatselhurst.
💥 New @JSPP_PsychOpen "I’m Going Home to Breathe and I’m Coming Back Here to Just Hold My Head Above the Water: Black Students’ Strategies for Navigating a Predominantly White UK University" by @LTeesha @amena_amk @ledablackwood @Julieatselhurst (1/2).

A very important thread by @PoorviIyer about how #easp2023krk @easpinfo handled visa issues. So tired of diversity and inclusivity being buzzwords in our academic spaces.
#easp2023krk is over and I'm seeing so many tweets about how great it was. No denying the truth to that, but there's also the not so great truth about how #visa issues were handled.
