Thanks @UofMaryland for a great two day #Wikipedia workshop! We wrote a ton of great content into the world’s largest source of free knowledge. Now, a week in DC for some fun. #GoTerps #ThatIsATurtle #WomenInRed #womensHistoryMonth

paraphrasing from MRA wikipedia: "Men are exploited by the social security system, because we are forced to accept higher wages while Women extract the most benefit." @Sarah_Stierch: "Just because I force you to make more $ Doesn't mean you can treat me like crap." #lol

The one thing wikipedians love more than editing wikipedia? Writing policies abut editing... and that's a gendered practice according to a whole range of feminist scholars adanewmedia.org/blog/2014/07… adanewmedia.org/blog/2015/04… adanewmedia.org/blog/2016/05… #fembot2018 #womeninred
#fembot2018 is adding diverse trans folks and #Womeninred to Wikipedia today. Come join us!

Working on #Wikipedia involves definitely a learning curve: make it storytelling with boring descriptions and few adjectives. #editathon #fembot2018 #Womeninred

The raw numbers of the scholarly coverage of some of Du Bois' work. #fembot2018 #AADHUM

I really appreciate how @roopikarisam 's work is so unsettling for those of us who have been so long invested in a particular narrative of who he was and of his work. The Global DuBois.... so much to think about #AADHum #fembot2018

A DuBois board game?! Sign me up! #fembot2018

How can digital tools and methods intervene in the narratives around Du Bois’ career? @roopikarisam is committed to a consistent “Global Du Bois" #fembot2018

What to do with DuBois' later work that was increasingly leftist & focused on anti-colonialism? Under surveillance by the govt & excluded by the black political community @roopikarisam argues that his later work is not distinct from his early research/writing #aadhum #fembot2018

Kathy Tran came to the U.S. as a refugee from Vietnam when she was an infant. Tonight, she became the first Asian American woman elected to the Virginia House of Delegates. Congrats @kathykltran!

Over 1,600 women in the U.S. were murdered by men in 2015 alone. The most common weapon used against them was a gun. bit.ly/2hvjjAf
