Sickeningly evil. Donald Trump must be impeached.  When will it be enough for my Republican colleagues to grow spines and remove him from office?

The people who keep NYC running shouldn't have to choose between work they believe in & the city they call home.
  We’re taking a big step toward making that promise real with our first free child care program for municipal workers, serving children from 6 weeks to 3 years old.

With our current administration, receiving access to Abortion has been increasingly difficult. From travel costs, lodging, treatment, and more, this can cause a toll on anyone receiving care. This is where you can take action!

Am teaching a course on Pain & the humanities this yr, and I can't stop thinking about this 1950 experiment conducted in New York hospitals and Cornell University hospital, where physicians burned the hands of women in labor (IN LABOR) to create a measure for pain/study pain thresholds. #histmed

Thank you to everyone who called or emailed. Even when you think it's only a drop in the bucket it matters. Sonny Burton has been granted clemency, he will not be gassed to death in Alabama today.

Sonny Burton is set to be executed by the state of Alabama on Thursday. There is a direct line between a government that murders its own citizens and the devaluing of life abroad. The sin has always started at home.

Something is coming. Stay tuned for the full docu-series release beginning March 10th with a new episode airing every day until the 14th at 11 am CST. Because this isn’t just a road trip. It’s a reflection of what’s at stake. #RoadToCare

I wish doctors knew that patients can tell that you’re fed up and impatient with them. And remember that we don’t have any choice but to be there in your clinic, talking to you, paying you, hoping desperately to get answers from you

Someone has sure already made this observation but the fact they can convert all those empty warehouses into prison camps means they could have converted them into housing, community centers, job training centers or, hell, libraries or schools all along. It’s always a matter of will not resources.

This is dystopian… and not just because they’re dressed like a scene from the handmaids tale. These are mostly children. This is where Liam Ramos is being held. They’re screaming “let us out” and protesting the brutal conditions. These kids are braver than every ICE thug holding them hostages

The killers of Renee Good and Alex Pretti were not new recruits but seasoned agents of Border Patrol. Thousands of migrants die every year due to official policies like Prevention through Deterrence. How many more are murdered by BP directly, unwitnessed and without video footage? Abolish it all.

An international graduate student at Tufts University was taken into federal custody on Tuesday outside an off-campus apartment building, the university’s president said. The university was told that the student’s visa had been terminated. nyti.ms/4hRzPq1

I love one of the reasons Braun & Clarke provided (written as a footnote) as to why they use the term "phase" rather than "step" in their six phase approach to doing reflexive thematic analysis: "Steps and stairs are also one of the ways our physical environments are made inaccessible for many"

I feel so grateful (and proud!) for our research to have received a Top Paper Award at #NCA2024 from the Health Communication Division. This article was a beautiful collaboration with Drs. Megan Cardwell and Mackensie Minniear. Read here: doi.org/10.1080/1041... #CRT #artsbasedmethods #commsky
