Hi, NYC. Do you know any Black cardiologists with availability? Thanks in advance.

Many of the curricular innovations about Black history/culture adopted by the 5 big tech firms originate from my team & me @langstonleague. They might not always give us credit, but we're proud to be the driving force behind these. Here's to the unsung impact of vendors!

The most enthusiastic booth at NYCC every year, hands down. 🙌🏾

Decent time to remind everyone that the relative survival rate for prostate cancer is 100% after 5 years and 98% after 10 years diagnosis when detected and treated early. That number drops to 32% in advanced stages. Black men are 1.76x more likely to be diagnosed than white men.

I'm so happy that the pub date has been pushed up to April 30. 🥹🥹🥹😭😭😭🩷🩷🩷😭🩷😭🩷😭

I just need one call with MacKenzie Scott about @langstonleague. Just one. 🙏🏾

UPDATE: COVID wastewater levels are low in most US states.

If you've been holding off on healthcare or other activities, now is one of the best times of the year to go.

Note that even in low periods you are still at risk of COVID exposure, so it makes sense to take precautions.

If you read anything today it should be about the way that the Board of Trustees of Tennessee State University was removed by new law, SB1596,  which was recently signed by R*publican Gov. Bill L*e.

A serious earthquake in NYC would affect subways, high rises etc. we are not built for this structurally. We are a few islands floating. Something more severe would be catastrophic. That’s why people are freaking out a bit

We hope everyone is okay after our morning shake up!

I’m not built for earthquakes, and before the west coasters start with the “haha that was nothing,” that’s WHY we live on the east coast. Y’all got it.
