Colleagues, I'm honored to be part of Dr. Nicole A. Cooke's inaugural and critically necessary course, "History of Black Librarianship," and thrilled to be in good company as we explore Black Librarian Futures. If you've enrolled in the course, I'm looking forward to seeing & talking with you!

In case you were wondering why we're leveling up. Well, we are fast approaching 1000 students and faculty targeted by the current administration. We have cases of visa revocations, detentions, deportations and many unknowns. Time to double down.

Can I even conjure a self, a re-presentation of myself without a reference to my ancestors? “These people are my access to me; they are my entrance into my own interior life” (Morrison, “The Site of Memory” 95) and as I am, they are.

people say The Great Gatsby is “no longer relevant,” but careless people have never been more brazen, or more prominent.
[“They were careless people, Tom and Daisy—they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made.”]

What can small data tell us about the quotidian impacts of limited scale representation in the aftermath of trauma and erasure? Catch me next month as I present and discuss “Beyond A Haunting,” a project centering histories of indenture and belonging.

In 1926 Carter G. Woodson began Negro History Week to promote and celebrate Black history. In 1976, Negro History Week became Black History Month.

I try my best to remember that when I speak to [unkind] adults, there is a child in there too. Operationalizing compassion is not for the weak.
