Throwback to #IndigNursDay 2022!
This is the best tweet I’ve ever been featured & tagged in. All because of one response.
I see you.
Indigenous nurses & students in BC including @cchakanyukaRN are leading a movement to decolonize and bring truth & reconciliation to nursing history while celebrating First Nations, Inuit & Metis nurses. #IndigNursDay @uvic @CBCIndigenous @IndigiNewsMedia ow.ly/jQCH50IEyxm

Your research paradigm isn’t optional.
It’s your operating system.
Your paradigms matter more than your methods.
Yet most grad students just know methods well.
(Repost this and I'll DM you the fix.)

Dear academics,
Take care of your body today (& everyday).
Drink water. Eat nourishing foods.
Relax your shoulders. Unclinch your jaw. Breathe deeply.
Take a walk outside. Rest & sleep.
Feel the present moment.
Our body is as important as our mind.

To the multicultural affairs pros who’ve been told your work is too niche or that you’ll be “pigeonholed”, this one is for you.
Excited to share my new pub w/ my bro @jessefordj in @JDHEtweets. Make no mistake, we are who we are because of our work in identity-based spaces. ✊🏾

There is a law in Germany against people who deny the holocaust
Perhaps #Canada may elumate this law but against people who deny the residential school experience as a #criminalcode offense.

The keffiyeh is more than a scarf -- it's tradition, it's culture, and it's a symbol of resistance in the fight against Israel's illegal invasion.
And yet in Ontario, it is banned from the legislature.
Shameful double standards.
A Vyshyvanka is more than a shirt — it’s tradition, it’s culture, and it’s a symbol of resistance in the fight against Russia’s illegal invasion.
Here in Canada, we wear it proudly. Slava Ukraini.
