Today was hard. Harder than I expected it would be-maybe because I did my best not to think about it in advance. It is difficult to find a not normalizing anything (yes, a Nazi salute is a Nazi salute and not an ‘exuberant gesture’), and taking care of your mental health. 1/x

It is sickening and infuriating that a plurality of those who voted in November opted to return this corrupt criminal to the highest office in the land. He belongs in jail.

Did you see this experiment my colleague Kristina conducted not just at my university but *in my department*? She and the male instructor assumed eachothers’ names for an online course: and the difference in feedback they received was horrifying.
Student Evaluations Can’t Be Used to Assess Professors. They’re Discriminatory.
And that means they’re illegal.

Like others, I fear the threat of government retribution, political vengeance and an angry right-wing mob. But I know that giving into it will only strengthen Trump and undermine the future of our democracy. Trump wants us to be scared. He wants us to give up — gradually and then suddenly.
