So excited for #vSPPAC!

I wrote out some thoughts on how to make this moment a real turning point to bring about real change––and pulled together some resources to help young activists sustain the momentum by channeling their energy into concrete action. medium.com/@BarackObama/h…

Thrilled that this paper is online now… “Addressing Structural Racism Is Critical for Ameliorating the Childhood Obesity Epidemic in Black Youth” Childhood Obesity liebertpub.com/doi/10.1089/ch… #obesity #childhoodobesity #racism

In a recent article published via Childhood Obesity, Eleanor Mackey and others look at the correlation between #racism and #childhoodobesity as factors affecting children’s health and well-being: spr.ly/6015y47eF

I just received notification that my academic promotion to (Full) Professor is official! This makes me the first Black woman in over 100 years at my institution to achieve this rank! #brokenglass #BlackGirlMagic #AcademicTwitter

Additionally, it is not lost on me that last week I was notified that I had been reported (again) to HR by middle management for "being disruptive," as I spoke out about harm and #SDOH.

It is a part of this cycle.

A bittersweet thank you go our outgoing board members, Eleanor Mackey, @Laura_Simons, and Thomaseo Burton. SPP wouldn’t be the same without your leadership! #SPPatAPA

Congratulations to Eleanor Mackey who received the 2022 Rosalind Franklin Society Special Award in Science by @WomenScienceRFS for her Mary Ann Liebert Inc paper on structural racism and childhood #obesity. ➡️ spr.ly/6014PetfC
