Wrapped up a jam-packed 121st @asanews.bsky.social Annual Meeting in NYC! 🗽 I wanted to share a few memorable moments as I reflect on the amazing things my colleagues, mentees, and I are doing. Also, I enjoyed attending section receptions and catching up with my colleagues! 🍎 #ASA2026 #Sociology

Reminiscing on Southern's... I was able to connect with former colleagues, organize a session on Black women's mental health and organize a book talk for Gonzalez’s recent book. To top it all off, my mentees shared their vital scholarship on Black women’s health. The future is bright! 😁
