Do you have any questions for Dr. Griffin? We can try to ask them live! #DrGriffinSpeaks
“Even in the face of brutality we have always sought justice and we have been the conduit of grace” #DrGriffinSpeaks
“If we want the future to be better we must make it so” #DrGriffinSpeaks
“Instead of leaving intellectual debates between professors and students they have politicalized them and turned academic institutions into political war zones.” #DrGriffinSpeaks
“Black studies as an intellectual discipline is a loud stance for freedom” #DrGriffinSpeaks
“When we think about the kinds of issues that Toni Morrison’s novels turn our attention to…I think most immediately about the state of Florida” #DrGriffinSpeaks
Have you read Toni Morrison’s Source of Self Regard ? Dr. Griffin is speaking specifically on the essay Racism and fascism. #DrGriffinSpeaks
“People who value books don’t ban them” #DrGriffinSpeaks
“There are so many books that you’ve never heard of because book banning is working. People have been talking about “radical” ideas for decades but we are just hearing about them in the 2000s because of book banning”. #DrGriffinSpeaks
“This [America] is a place that has the to capacity to change despite its past. By banning truth telling books they are erasing the possibility of a future”. #DrGriffinSpeaks
“It never occurred to me that people would be organizing campaigns against the very books and ideas that I’m seeking to write. I’m not naive but I never thought we’d be here” #DrGriffinSpeaks
Where did you first encounter books about and by Black people ? #DrGriffinSpeaks
“My whole life I was taught to value books” #DrGriffinSpeaks

The Whitney is one of the few remaining Plantations open to public that focuses on the lived experiences of the enslaved. There are others that barely mention + advertise for such celebratory events. Genocide and slavery reman unreconciled in this nation. History is key.
Do not...I repeat DO FUCKING NOT get married at a plantation. You wouldn't get married at Auschwitz. If you do this, you're thumbing your nose at genocide.

What a special night with some of my favorite people. Thanks, Brooklyn!
Best time shooting with some of my favorite poets. Love to cry while photographing!
So thankful for the friends and homies who are on this college prof journey with me. Y’all make me better every day, and I appreciate you - more than you know.
Tenure does not come with a super serum. It does not come with any infinity stones. It will not instantaneously make you taller, sexier, or more likely to intervene in the scrapes on campus. If you've been silent and inert for six years, you'll probably stay silent and inert.
I had a scary encounter on the train several weeks ago. Emotionally disturbed person was screaming at me about how he had a weapon etc etc. I'm no Marine, I didn't touch the guy, I didn't escalate. He screamed and I listened. No one died.
Happening now! Fire in the Zoom. #blacktabletalks
