An earnest question for writers/editors: How do you feel about writers that write "I acknowledge my privilege" into their work? Is it heavy handed? Is it self-aware and honest? Is it needlessly apologetic? What do you think?

#WongKimArk was born in San Francisco. His landmark case, US v. Wong Kim Ark, reinforced birthright citizenship in America. Read @JohnTrasvina's article on the SF connection and lasting legacy. #asianamericanhistoryisamericanhistory #aapi #14thamendment ow.ly/eiKj50Ivta1

Can confirm that as someone who just attended AAS. The silencing of China-based scholars don't just harm them, but the discipline, and all of us who have much to learn from their experiences and knowledge.

Academia is constantly humiliating. I’m terribly embarrassed and stressed, because I have to finish and defend my dissertation without a summer stipend. Hoping to sell 400-500 books to cover three months rent and moving expenses.

Happy Pub Day to @TamarHaspel! Tamar's voice is a trusted wellspring of nutritional science that's steered me thru grad school and motherhood. It was an honor to interview her, alongside @WellLibrarian. Y'all go peep her latest book, "To Boldly Grow." podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas…

The Chinese Canadian experience is an essential part of BC’s rich history. We're providing $27.5 million to help purchase the historic Wing Sang Building to serve as the new home of the #ChineseCanadianMuseum, on track to open in 2023. @ccmuseumbc  news.gov.bc.ca/26242
