For anyone that needed a reminder..."Black education has never only happened in the classroom." Quote by @KidadaEWilliams in conversation with Jessica Rucker for @ZinnEducation on teaching the trauma and violence of Reconstruction.
Great article:"Centering First-Generation Students in the Digital Humanities." The recommended practices are applicable to non-DH classrooms as well. Thanks @jpewu and @anelisehshrout! dhdebates.gc.cuny.edu/read/p…
I'm thrilled to be supporting @tpinsights' report highlighting 100 high-growth Black tech companies. 🙌🏾
I hope this kicks off a new era of reporting on tech entrepreneurship in support of Black innovators, especially those pursuing healthy alternatives to dominant tech culture.
Doing my happy dance after ending the fall semester chairing/serving on 7 graduate committees, 4 of whom defended final projects in public and digital history! I'll post more about the digital projects soon on Insta @csufdigital

Thank you @felt & @findauut for this shout out. Collaborative mapping has been a huge part of building the #networkedproject and mapping the lesser known footprint of Santa Ana's "Little Texas." We're looking doing more with these tools.
Students of @Jpewu digitized an intricate basemap of "Little Texas", the Black community of Santa Ana, CA, dating back to 1950. RJ can make all that work sharable in Felt, allowing students to add observations on how the urban environment has changed in the last 70 years.
You can now bring your custom basemap tiles into Felt, unlocking them for use across your team alongside our easy-to-use spatial tools. See how RJ @findauut combined Felt & his 3D @Mapbox Studio to get the work of #csufdigital graduate students on a sharable, collaborative map.
