Thanks for engaging with it! It's been both fascinating and frustrating seeing the same patterns over and over. Hopefully, this project will help school psychology recognize and learn from its mistakes.

If you're interested in a critical, historical analysis of school psychology and how school psychology's history informs its present, check out my newsletter!

We cannot honor trailblazers without also acknowledging why they had to blaze their own trail.

In this essay, I explain why school psychology needs to focus on honoring POC's full humanity, highlight the role of critical histories for antiracism, and share two stories about Black SP leaders.

I started a Substack to share what I'm learning as I explore school psychology archives, interview school psychologists of color, and navigate the profession as a Black woman.

I receive this! This is a culmination of decades of hard work & advocacy. I’m proud to be part of this movement & to have been in spaces where I could elevate Dr. Miranda’s name & others who’ve gone unrecognized. I hope my actions inspire others to build community & imagine radical change.

I think a lot of other attendees feel the same way. You never know how much you need something until you finally get it.

It's amazing how much can change in a short time. This NASP was the opposite of my first one in 2010. The sessions we did would have never been accepted. But look at us now! 🙌🏾

I hope you're able to. It really is a great experience, especially socializing with other school psychs.
