I just found out NY’ers throw out undrank wine the same night. I’m so unnerved by this. Do NYers embrace the concept of toasting bread? Do they eat leftovers? So many questions to ponder while I drink half a bottle of wine I saved from an untimely death at my friends last night.

With the subways crowded and longer waits on the platforms, prevention is critical. Masking and practicing good hand hygiene will be critical to avoid preventable transmission of COVID and flu. Be mindful NYers and stay safe!

When I say I am not self made it is not to diminish myself or the effort I put in. What I’m saying is I had a lot of help along the way. Most ‘successful’ academics are not self made. Early career scholars - seek out supportive mentors and sponsors. And be encouraged.

I'm 1 week away from a much-needed vacation to celebrate the 1st birthday of my granddaughter. As I outline my work for the coming week, I'm clear that I'm up to A LOT. Taking time to restore and be with my family is essential to my well being and sustained performance.

Some men who have sex with men also have sex with women who have sex with men that only have sex with women. Let that sink in. Monkeypox is OUR problem, not THEIR problem.

It's a myth that monkey pox is a disease only of men who have sex with men. We learned the impact of stigma and misinformation during the AIDS pandemic. Bigotry is a threat to public health and an injustice to humanity. ThankU Perry N Halkitis, PhD, MS, MPH ♓️🏳️‍🌈🇬🇷🇺🇸⚛️! Rutgers SPH youtube.com/watch?v=TWTGdE…

Very timely and relevant advice to avoid intellectual and academic piracy. Thank you Dr. Ijeoma Opara for bringing this conversation forward. A MUST read for early career scholars and the field in general.

I spent the morning at the The Legacy Museum in Montgomery, AL. The real history of slavery and white supremacy in America and it’s modern day legacy effects are visually and viscerally compelling. To create a just new future we MUST first authentically reckon with our past. Equal Justice Initiative

Hello world, it's me - the real Dr. Debra Furr-Holden. Someone hacked my account on March 31 and I just re-gained access today. Quick word to the wise - add 2-factor authentication to your account. It took a hacker 8 minutes to completely take over my account.
