It's the week before my 5th year at TEXAS Moody starts, so I thought I'd drop some resources that may be helpful if you're in various transitional stages in academia. Today, I'm sharing a 🧵of the readings I send my grad students at different stages.

1/x Never thought I’d share this kind of story. Was at City of New York for a family gathering and on the NYC subway, I was *physically* and *verbally* attacked by a woman who punched my side with her fist and yelled at me, saying ching chong, dumbass, f*ck,


It breaks my heart that Asian women are *not* safe in my hometown (NYC). These crimes are underreported (making Jiyoun Suk, Ph.D. (jiyoun-suk.bsky.social) all the braver for speaking up) and under-prosecuted, and this needs to change. New York, do better. #StopAAPIhate

Thrilled to see this come out at IJPP! Special thanks to Cristian Vaccari and @sgonzalezbailon the editorial guidance. Thank you Jo(sephine) Lukito Yini Zhang for your feedback on the paper!


A new study led by Rui Wang, Ph.D., where we explored the role of social media users in platform governance. Please let us know if you have any feedback/questions.

We are very excited that the next Moral Media Conference will be held at UBuffalo in April 2025!
