Not a typical post (🧵) on here, but just over 6 months ago, I successfully defended my dissertation alongside friends, family, my committee, and many loved ones. It was a wonderful day, and I have so many people to thank for their support over the past 3 years and more!

Turned 26 today and recently finished my 4th year of my PhD program, so I wrote a new blog where I did some reflecting on the moment we are in.
Compared to when I applied to grad school in 2020, this is nowhere near what I would’ve predicted. Read here:

Think this is a great time to lift up the legacy and work of W.E.B DuBois and Ida B. Wells in using journalism, ethnography, and data to highlight the propaganda of white supremacy. They were able to pierce through official lies with meticulous work and compelling methods of communication.
Perhaps the most insidious thing President Musk is doing is decimating the federal government's production of data. This will make it more difficult for his critics to show, objectively, how stupid his policies are. Stalin did the same thing and executed a great economist named Nikolai Kondratiev.
