In this current era, these programs are disappearing. Do any still exist? Our young people, all of them (brown or not), are missing out in more ways than one 💔

Before then like many mainland US citizens i don't think that I really knew much about PR. I made some great friends, ate PR food (mofangoooooooo), and learned a LOT about the fraught politics and status of PR. It shaped my understanding of diversity and equity and I'm so grateful for the experience

Sure, ICE breaks laws constantly. Lord knows if they would obey the private property designation of the staff only area of the rec center. But thanks to the training last night, at least we have a plan other than "panic".

I am aware that some of the old guard in the academic space see my work as frivolous nonsense. Add tonight to the pile of evidence that *it is not*.

F) For the love of all that is good and holy stop wondering if your idea is any good! That way lies madness. Your idea, whatever it is, will live or die by its execution. Commit to your idea. Eat and drink your idea. Play with it, have fun with it.
