So I’m reading David J McCollough’s PhD dissertation entitled: Ritual Water, Ritual Spirit . When he begins to cite heavily from my former colleague and a man I hold in high esteem, @pmphillips It thrilled me to see someone else so positively impacted by Dr. Phillips. ☺️☺️

Y’all, we cannot be part of constructing a system then sit at our desks oblivious to what multiple people are doing in the name of it. I’m slack jawed. If you helped build something that, for many, turned into a Frankenstein, go get your lasso, Victor, and pull that monster in.

Here’s how this works, folks. Discredit people and you won’t have to disprove them. The trouble we will go to in order to keep from actually humbling ourselves and listening and prayerfully considering whether a critique has merit is absolutely astonishing.

If you’re unbothered or mildly bothered by the 1st knee, but outraged by the 2nd, then, in my father’s words, you’re “more devoted to order than to justice.” And more passionate about an anthem that supposedly symbolizes freedom than you are about a Black man’s freedom to live.

Preliminary results from Pfeiffer and colleagues suggest that underloading of the ACLR limb at 6 months after ACLR may be associated with lesser proteoglycan density in the ACLR limb compared with the uninjured limb. ow.ly/eBEm30ocsNC

There have now been 44 people killed in the past 30 days in Baltimore. For context, the city's deadliest calendar month ever was 45 people killed in July 2015. We're right there. And the preceding tweets in this thread are only a glimpse of how each impacts a community
