A thread of our series; Being Black in Physiotherapy by Crouch Physio & myself. This is a 3-part series highlighting the issues in Physiotherapy & offering solutions on how our profession can improve Initially released this on Instagram but decided to bring it to Twitter too!

My grant got rejected. I failed. So I'm saying it on Twitter. I don't want sympathy. I just wish people would say stuff like this on Twitter.

There's no shame in not knowing things! The only shame is to pretend that we know everything. 🧠

At some or other point we have all failed and fell short of our goals. However, these failures should be seen as stepping stones rather than setbacks. Keep picking yourself up and pushing through, because at the end of the day perseverance builds character. #StayFocused

At #WCPT19 when Michael Rowe & I presented the #unposter we argued that much of that conference could be done just as well online, ⬆️ing access & ⬇️ing financial, environmental & time costs. Who knew #worldphysio21 would put our argument to the test?? inbeta.uwc.ac.za/portfolio/the-…

Not gonna lie I'm pretty pleased with this

[READ] UWC Physiotherapy trains students not only to participate in the increasingly online and digital culture of the 21st century, but to lead it - and produces graduates who’ve gone on to champion sport, education and research all over the world. #IamUWC #Physiotherapy

UWCPhysio making their mark.

I retweeted original to give @Michael_Rowe full credit but principle applies to every profession of course. So as a trained (& qualified, but not licensed) sport & exercise medicine physician, I endorse this "Rowe Recommendation" for all of our community. #LearningStartsAtHome

Our final report on the UCT ERT Student Experience Survey results (n=3818) highlights the role of residences in reducing inequality. Students who moved out of UCT residences after term 1 had a significantly harder time during ERT than students who were never in residence.

Post the pandemic, let academic conferences remain online, let meetings turn to emails, let productivity triumph over location of work, let "norms" be overcome by innovation, sincerely yours, working mommy.

Who run the global health agenda? Wise perspective from @paimadhu Global health needs to urgently tackle the lack of diversity, equity and inclusion #GHSYPS2020 #GlobalHealth

Whether in science or leadership, it’s okay to not have all of the answers. When we’re willing to admit what we don’t know, it frees us to embrace and own what we do know.

“The little that is known about scholarly production outside the English-speaking world is revealing about the inequalities of dominant knowledge practices...The characterisations of non-Western publishers as ‘predatory’- is a conceit which reaffirms colonial hierarchies.”

Well said!
