Getting mind, body, and spirit ready for the approaching academic year.

I was late to class because a meeting went long. When I finally made it, my students had simply started working on their own, splitting up in groups and discussing their readings. Pretty good teaching moment!

Come see @drvholden.bsky.social speak at Mississippi College as part of our Black History Program on February 6th at 6 pm in the Entergy Theater. We would love to see you and support African American Studies at Mississippi College!

Not answering emails until
Monday after next. Deal with it…..

Fun times in Aggie Land. 10/10 recommend!

Sometimes you give a talk for the @mshumanitiescouncil #speakers bureau and get socks that are on point as a gift ……

Just a reminder to never delete any of your words. Thanks to Tim Hemmis and David Head a chapter that I cut from my dissertation found a belated home in a fun volume!

I am very honored to receive this award from a fantastic organization!
