A piece of what burns me about this messaging is the implication that our experts in public health think that @UMNews’s decision to abandon the classroom mask policy aligns with promoting public health. (Gentle reader, they do not.)

Y'all be getting trained by scholars racialized as White at historically White serving universities learning Eurocentric epistemologies. But y'all are "objective" scholars. Ok then!

I REALLY need a postdoc. I’m drowning in data and study ideas that I can’t pursue. I have full funding for 3 post docs. Research areas: tobacco cessation, health equity, and implementation science in Minneapolis. hhri.applicantpro.com/jobs/2… @hhrinstitute

Whenever I read or hear the word "pristine" used in the environmental discourse, I wonder: Which Indigenous community stewarded this environment, landscape, etc? It is important to make this question so that we stop ignoring Indigenous stewardship & acknowledge Indigenous ppl.

Climate change is a euphemism for histories and present conditions of enslavement, colonialism, extractionism, ecocide, and urbicide. To end the so-called anthropocene we must transform these conditions, create an unprecedented path, & depart with the false hope of tech solutions

What happened today in #GeorgeFloydSquare is just one more part in a years long effort by powerful conservatives forces in Minneapolis to undermine the people’s call for transformation and change.
They are afraid to lose their power.

Why is @UMNews going against the cities that it is situated in (Minneapolis and St. Paul) and allowing people to not wear masks indoors on campus?
Jennifer Nicklay retweeted
Police are widely claiming that having a gas mask at a protest indicates a person intends to enter into conflict with the police.
In a metaphor Minnesota can understand, taking mosquito repellent to a picnic does NOT mean i intend to get bitten by mosquitoes.

In addition to being in direct opposition to the @mnhealth vaccine allocation advisory committee’s recommendations, this also excludes incarcerated people who have experienced some of the worst clustered outbreaks in our state.
@GovTimWalz, what gives?
