    Hey, Twitter. Been awhile. Took a hiatus to learn the true meaning of having my hands full, but back to work at @AJEPodcasts today & ready to dive in. What’d I miss (other than everyone’s reconsidering being on here in the first place)? And what stories do you want to hear?

    My blue check is gone but seeing as how my identity has already been replicated, guess that matters a little less now 🤷🏾‍♀️🤷🏾‍♀️. Eid Mubarak to all who celebrated, hope yours was as colorful and awe-inspiring as my twins' very first.

    When they say 'I am my ancestors' wildest dream' I imagine they mean this. Two black women, a Muslim American descendant of the enslaved + a British-Nigerian Londoner, hosting a TV show broadcast to 320 million homes about an incredible work of history that is the #1619Project.

    What is fear itself? (Does giving a @TEDx speech without a teleprompter count?) My thoughts in video form from @TEDxFoggyBottom. Have a look and let me know what you think: buff.ly/2s4J2FI #FOBO18 #FearItself
