This is a really great piece. However, I really wish that when this was happening to black women online on Twitter ( me included) back in 2010 and beyond folks would have paid attention. We were the canaries in the coal mine and all the things that you've experienced we went through earlier.

I always use the general purpose glorious nerd with glasses 🤓 or scholar 👩‍🎓 emoji. But that’s just me!

Now I've shifted settings to 'show all replies' - this is like a masterclass in real time, thank you!
