I’m excited about this. Quick and efficient this very necessary conversation will be. As social media grows, this initiative should as well! #MSIChat

Not only are the number and value of these donations historic, they continue to climb. During this Twitter chat, we will examine how these growing donations are transforming fundraising and sustainability for #HBCUs. #MSIChat

A1. The racial reckoning caused many in society to take note and invest more in HBCUs #MSIChat

A2. With the money HBCUs have received, they are better positioned to provide students with scholarships, help to upgrade infrastructure, and retain talented faculty #MSIChat

A3. Continued engagement with business leaders is important #MSIChat

A5: The current fundraising could be used to uplift the queer and trans folx within the HBCU community. #BlackTransLivesMatter and we need to do better about being critically reflexive in order to support and nurture our community. #MSIChat

A6. HBCUs are important institutions. They have fundamentally shaped every aspect of society by cultivating and nurturing Black talent and development #MSIChat

A7. Leaders of HBCUs must continue to control their narrative about their institutions #MSIChat

Excited to announce that starting in Sept 2021 I will be co-PI w/ Erjia Yan & Robert T. Palmer on an U.S. National Science Foundation award investigating the effects of academic mobility on HBCUs (partially utilizing web archives), specifically relating to the impact of "brain drain". #WebArchiveWednesday
