"You came to this doctoral program worthy and you will leave worthy"- Dr. Candice Nicole Hargons #PsychOfBlackWomen Psychology of Black Women

Understanding experiences of Black graduate students is essential to dismantling systems of oppression that exist within the Ivory Tower. With this study we hope to provide community, refuge, & space for Black graduate students to discuss what it means to be #BlackintheIvory! ❤

I want to congratulate Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson on her nomination to the Supreme Court. Judge Jackson has already inspired young Black women like my daughters to set their sights higher, and her confirmation will help them believe they can be anything they want to be.

Citing the work of Black thinkers is one of the highest forms of solidarity—but integrating Black thought into your praxis is prime. That’s it. That’s all. That’s the message. #AcademicChatter #BlackademicTwitter #CiteASista
