The Editorial Board of Atlanta Studies has decided that the journal will no longer maintain an active presence on Twitter. Much of the work of the journal is about encouraging social justice and human rights. Too much of the work of this platform is antithetical to that pursuit.

"What Journalism and Jim Crow does best," writes @David_S_Bennett in his review for ATL Studies, "is highlight how white supremacist narratives played a role not only in bolstering the profits of white newspapers, but also in silencing Black journalists."
