Interesting April 2008 @NYTimes profile of one teacher's efforts to teach his rural Nebraska students about the world and the conditions that can lead to grand-scale human suffering. It's a master class in pedagogy. The teacher was Tim Walz nytimes.com/2008/04/23/edu…

Honored to be interviewed by nature while discussing the value of community in academia, especially for the underrepresented. National Black Postdoctoral Association (NBPA) & HMS Black Postdoctoral Association transformed my journey, and I urge everyone to create the supportive networks they wish existed❤️‍🔥 nature.com/articles/d4158…
