"Go where you're loved. Stay where it's consistent." This is true @journalofpm I haven't needed to prostrate at the feet of any temporal master nor creep through narrow apertures in the rocks of their disciplinary expectations. #Devcomms scholars publish here! Thanks @RKottasz 😊


6/ Recommendations? Drop symbolic gestures and embrace structural accountability. Real anti-racism means critically engaging race, challenging #Whiteness, and empowering diaspora communities as meaningful stakeholders in #DevComms discourse and practice.
