When I choose 2 leave the VA, a truly toxic environment 4 Black women, I was flooded with, 'but why' 'you have a safe job that pays well.' I say...you obviously don't know the cost of oppression! Superficial gestures of equality & inclusion is infuriating! #NikoleHannahJones

The #NikoleHannahJones story is an incredible example of the way white donors and big philanthropy use their money to try to silence and control. Our work is supported until it presses up against the systems that made them rich in the first place.

#NikoleHannahJones is supposed to start work tomorrow in this building on UNC’s campus. UNC leaders “hope” she’ll be here. #ABC11

Every blackademic today scouring Howard University’s job ads #NikoleHannahJones

The night has arrived that THE Nikole Hannah-Jones will be in the theatre for tonight's showing. We are sold out for tonight, but we have availability in the matinee and night show tomorrow!

Great piece by Sophia A. Nelson theGrio.com on the lesson we all need to take from Ida Bae Wells in her brave quest to teach the world a great lesson in: SELF RESPECT. thegrio.com/2021/07/07/nik… #1619Project #NikoleHannahJones #HowardUniversity

I love the example Ida Bae Wells is setting for Black women.

That we don’t have to stay or go to places that don’t appreciate us and will make us jump through hoops.

Know that you can always walk away.

Damn. Well done. Love this thread, so helpful. #NikoleHannahJones

An excellent thread on how a megadonor at #UNC thought he had bought himself veto power over giving #NikoleHannahJones the tenure which all of her predecessors had enjoyed.

My story today:

Representatives from UNC Hussman School of Journalism and Media and UNC's Faculty Executive Committee spoke with me about what they are looking for from UNC leadership following the #NikoleHannahJones tenure controversy.

The UNC-Chapel Hill board of trustees has decided to offer tenure to Nikole Hannah-Jones, key architect of The 1619 Project for The New York Times. Her application had been halted earlier after a board member questioned her qualifications. apne.ws/crvtnWe

Meeting with #NikoleHannahJones for an interview this week made me reflect on my June interview with Walter Hussman, the conservative Arkansas media magnate and #UNC megadonor who lobbied against hiring her.

It's worth talking a bit about these two people and interviews.

In my opinion, she benefits from confusion in this space. She's alrdy been stamped and verified by elite institutions. All she needs is a vacuum + chaos, then she can step right in and get that Netflix/Cadillac/OWN/NFL/TheNextGrant/TheNextBook/whateva deal. 🤷🏿‍♀️ #nikolehannahjones

“Actually, y’all can kiss my ass.”

- #NikoleHannahJones , for the win.

I support #NikoleHannahJones ' decision.
When you don't feel welcomed, you build a community that supports you. I built a preschool after touring & they said the staff had 'tolerance' training. Who wants to be tolerated?

Number 14 is scary!! 🏝️😱
