Don’t come to Maui. Cancel your planned vacations. Survivors need the hotel rooms. Give our community time to grieve and heal.
You know what’s harder than writing…editing. What was I thinking last month when I wrote this draft. 🤦🏽♂️

AAPI fam….the Supreme Court decision on Affirmative Action is a bad one. Our community is harmed by it. Don’t let anyone fool you.

"While Ms. Smith has laid the groundwork for her new venture, she has yet to carry out her plans." HOW THEN DOES THE COURT ISSUE AN OPINION GIVEN THAT NOTHING HAS ACTUALLY HAPPENED?????!!!!!!

Supreme Court's Fourteenth Amendment:
- DOES NOT allow for race-conscious measures to remedy widespread structural discrimination;
- DOES allow bigots to refuse service to minority groups so long as the bigotry is sincere

Affirmative action gutted.
Black, Ethnic, LGBTQ+ & Women, Gender & Sexuality Studies attacked.
The fall of Roe.
Banning books.
Banning ideologies coined by Black Feminists.
And y’all want Black academics to go on as business as usual?
Nah.

David Stamps remembers his father’s tough love like it was yesterday, but over the years, his dad has come to embrace emotions and intimacy with his son. “It seems small but feels much larger,” Stamps writes in The Emancipator. Read his piece here: bostonglobe.com/2023/06/15/o…

“They celebrated my hard-earned accomplishments with multiple hugs and kisses, despite living in a society that said a Black boy from St. Louis was not enough. Maybe I can model healthy behaviors for them…”
