    Chicago has lost over a quarter million Black residents since 2000. I want to know why. (I have my theories, but you know.) If you're a Black Chicagoan who is thinking of leaving and/or your friends/family/neighbors have left the city, I want to talk to you. Please RT/share!

    Participants needed for focus group! If you're over 18 and a resident of the city of Chicago who identifies as Black and you have considered moving or your friends/family have moved, visit beyondschoolslab.org/survey or call 773.234.3193. Participants receive a $40 Target gift card.

    That’s at least 9 rejections y’all. But I honestly never thought about the rejections much. I’m here, I’m good, their loss.

    Hi, yes, since it's the I thought I'd share a list of books you can read that give an accurate view of Indigenous peoples because, well, we wrote them. Racist mascots aren't truth tellers. They stir up hate & discrimination. Read some books instead:

    He was in fact the first African American to earn a PhD in *any* subject from an American university, one of the first ten people of any race to earn a PhD in physics from an American university, and one of the first Americans to earn a PhD in any subject in the US.
