i just wanna highlight that “microaggressions cause as much stress and negative emotion as blatant [racial] discrimination”
Our results are out! Does racial discrimination cause psychological distress?
Check out an infographic on key findings, and link to the new registered report paper! Data were collected when we were

i wonder how many people from my old southern hometown/high school see me now and think either
“Wow look at him go living his best life”
or alternatively
“Wow he became one of those raging queer liberals trying to burn the world down and take down Jesus”

Communities of color, queer communities, and low-income communities experience many disparities in negative mental health outcomes and access to care. I hope I can dedicate my research to helping close the gaps between people who need mental health care and people who receive it!

love that research relating to this is coming out, but also hate that y’all needed research to believe a sentence like this.
"Efforts to prevent depression [in children] might ultimately need to demand less of teachers and kids, and focus more on poverty, violence, homelessness, food insecurity & other structural problems that affect children’s mental health".
