@KemiDoll @Eugenia_South @IssakaMD Love you Dr. @KemiDoll! ❤️ 👏🏾We must support research “with” not “on” communities! 👏🏾The community determines your impact—not a P-value! 👏🏾This type of work is NOT for everyone—authenticity and purpose are key! This is what #CBPR looks like ⤵️ Retweeted by Erika Trapl
Let’s hope it moves past proposed and into adoption and implementation soon! 🤞🏻 twitter.com/AP/status/1519…
