Trump, who was just ugly to McCain after he was greatly ill, is still making it about himself. Note a picture of himself.

Funny how the evangelical church and Congress looks a like in the 21st century.

The queen...forever!

I am spending my morning reading Barger's "The World Come of Age: An Intellectual History of Liberation Theology". My review of her outstanding book will appear in Black Perspectives.

We have had this "Tricycle Gang" print for a couple of years. It is finally framed and on the wall in our study. The interracial "play" of three Black girls and a white boy, circa 1930s - 1940s, in this Bedford-Stuyvesant (Brooklyn) New York community was too good to pass up.

I was excited to moderate Tuesday night's forum as we remembered the life and murder of Sandra Bland, and the violence against Black bodies-- but particularly Black women and trans Black women. Our speakers were beyond OUTSTANDING. There is room for more work and activism.

I am excited to say my Society for Values in Higher Ed conf. paper on race and prep schools was well received. Great session. The campus here at the University of Washington is beautiful. Met a lot of brilliant academics.

Moved in to my office in Phillips Hall at The Governor's Academy

My kids enjoying each other on this car ride. Oh how I love Abbey (dog) and Cooper (cat). Cannot wait to get home from this trip to see them. I miss Janette (wife) too. Haha...

My brilliant friend and Brooks colleague & alum, who is now doing great work at Fitchburg State University, visited my history seminar. I just discussed racism and the Atlantic world with my class when she came by. Nice surprise. I want us to hire her one day.

I am excited about my research on Race and Boarding Schools, and that my paper on this topic was accepted. I will use this work as a framing for a hopeful panel at the 2019 People of Color Conference.

#RIP Antwon Rose. My Black Mother -- like yours -- worries too. We will keep fighting for justice. Educating. Our skin color does not make us a weapon. #BlackLivesMatter #HandsUp #Peace

We MUST educate others to move beyond their association with loving those that look like themselves. We cannot endorse the idea of thought that promotes hate for differences. We must be anti-racist, anti-homophobia, anti-sexist, pro-transgender, etc.
