1/ Recently, as videos of Ahmaud Arbery’s and George Floyd’s deaths spread over the internet, Prof. Allissa Richardson (@DrAlliRich) of @USCAnnenberg wrote for @ConversationUS that sharing images of Black people being killed can be disrespectful and traumatizing
2/ Four days later, an editor @axios wrote about the same subject, citing no scholarly research. @DrAlliRich has written a book about this issue, published this year by Oxford University Press, and spoken widely about the subject in recent weeks
3/ The marginalization and erasure of Black voices is being recognized across the country. Two dozen publications across the country republished @DrAlliRich’s story, and we have been able to share her important work, and the vital work of diverse scholars throughout the U.S.
