LAX strict as hell 😅

I am forever grateful that my job keeps me in school spaces. 💛 Loving this Women’s History Month bulletin board at one of my contract schools. It’s giving inspiration!

Growing up as a Black girl in a rural community shaped so much of who I am. Having the privilege to teach in one deepened my understanding of how unique the experiences of Black girls are in these spaces. Know a young person eligible for this compensated study, please encourage them to sign up. 🖤✨

Bluesky deserves to know my good news, too. So blessed and happy to be nearing the end of my PhD journey!✨

The following five weeks are about to be surreal and extremely busy.

Ms. Varnee had the most personalized homegoing I've ever been to. 🥰 even had her infamous tractor. 💚

Whatever you do, please serve seafood salad at my repast.

The way imma go ghost this summer. 😅

Shoutout to @tillerylives.bsky.social for planning an entire youth symposium while writing an entire dissertation. GREATER. 💛💙

Any educational institution blindly following Trump and Youngkin’s DEI dismantling is weak. And let’s be real, you shouldn’t be taking cues from Youngkin and his puffer vest anyway.

everybody love the sunshine 😭 #RIP Roy Ayers

My first Reddit post is doing numbers LOL

Iconic vibraphonist, composer and producer Roy Ayers has died at 84, his family announces

Dang ppl really passing away. 🕊️

I have to lock in this week like I've never locked in before. But I am very jet lagged. 😭

My chair is moving too fast 🤣 girl, I’m not ready or am I?

Sitting between two masked individuals on the plane. A great feeling 😷😷

One of my former sixth graders just sent me pictures of their first child. So precious and also, how old am I ????????!!!!

Grandma Queen said y'all need to take your vitamins.

I ain’t never been this hot in February.

Walking around LA, and the Tyler the Creator concert is happening, and the NAACP Image Awards are across the street. So cool.

A cool unintentional perk of my job is getting to see my baby cousin when I travel to California.

I thought the same thing! Someone leaked 😂😂

All the Black people winning. 🥰

Someone should be selling #Superbowl plates 😭

My writing breaks include watching one (1) episode of Law & Order SVU.

If you ask me a dumbass question, then I should be able to take your degree.

There's a teen branch of the shade room?! Why?

people are not smart.

But who's be lovin' you lately? Who's willing to go half on the baby? Who who who's trying to flag our ship? They just tryin' to get the love you give, but baby

I need about 20K right now.

Even with the presenter discount ($750 😅), this summit is still a lot. Did no one consider how inequitable this is for doc students?

So many meetings this morning; time for a brain break.

Sometimes you have to let the hairline go and just be bald.

I love older studs. They’re so kind.

Now they got me yapping.

There’s some yappers on this flight.

My Richmond crush is on my flight 🤣

Chapter 5 will be done this week. No excuses.

Doechii with the GOOD word to Black women, that's fitting for Black History Month and beyond: "You are exactly who you need to be to be right where you are and I am a testimony.” #GRAMMYs

Bey really gave birth to a mini best friend!

Stevie seeing so many of his peers go on to Glory has to be a lot #Grammys

So proud of Doechii!

This guy was sitting in my seat, and the flight attendants had to let him know. He's being so disrespectful to the staff, especially after the week American Airlines has had. White privilege is wild.

Tired of being a no sabo kid when the abuelas need help translating.

#BHM Day One: Ms. Claudette Colvin "I was about 4 years old the first time I ever saw what happened when you acted up to whites" (Hoose, 12). But when she was 15, her bus ride would change history as she was the first to be arrested for not giving up her seat to white people, 9 mts before Parks.

I wrote this in 2021 and now we’re being attacked by the “highest office” in the land. Smh. christinatillery.com/blog/the-sch...

Do the producers also not like Kyle?! #RHOB

Having your profession listed in an executive order is wild.
