Apparently the Buffalo white supremacist killer professed his “admiration” for East Asians in his manifesto? Yikes. Never forget the origin of the Model Minority Myth is rooted in anti-Black racism and we cannot dismantle it without challenging its inherent anti-Blackness.

Thanks for inviting the law school to join #UDCResearchWeek @udc_edu and for the introduction @reneemhutchins. Shout out to Prof. Ching for corralling and moderating us to keep us (or really me) on track. I could talk about why #menstruationmatters + the role of law for days...

Proud of my colleague @ProfPhilLee latest contribution to the discourse on race and higher education!! He uses a critical race theory approach toward addressing recent attacks against race-conscious admissions at Harvard that tried to use Asian Americans as a weapon. Must read!!
