Sunday night studying!
Today I woke up sad and stressed and didn’t feel like studying. I like to do more physical, mindless tasks when I feel this way, so I did my laundry, cleaned the floors, and went to the gym. Now I am plodding through some problem sets with some nice green tea 😊
I hope everyone had a good weekend!
Ladies, are we fatigued this evening? Are we tired
We sleepy sis
Exhausted even
Based on the notes on this post, the situation is worse than I thought

new year new setup:) hopefully im back for (mostly) good lol. hopefully i can work up to posting a bunch for this upcoming semester and hopefully this page promotes some less procrastination on my part!
Welcome Autumn.
hello hello and happy september to my beloved followers!
after a year and a half, i am returning to this blog. when i started ravenswoodacademia, i was at an all time low; i was a remote college student at the height of the pandemic living in a dysfunctional household. my mental illness was unmedicated and i was not able to function properly.
some truly wild things happened in the past 18 months, including several changes of address, some scary moments, and permanently cutting off a family member. though i am very much still in the healing process, i am worlds better than i was, and i want to return to this blog as i start the second half of college to share my journey to mental and emotional health and nontoxic self improvement. also i miss this wonderful goofy community 😊
anyways, apologies for the war and peace length post! i will start posting semi-regularly again, probably about a variety of academia-adjacent, aesthetic, and daily life things, and i look forward to interacting with y’all 😇
<3, rose

Today in Black Excellence: Shirley Chisholm, the first African American—and the first woman—to seek nomination for President.
“I want history to remember me... not as the first black woman to have made a bid for the presidency of The United States, but as a black woman who lived in the 20th century and who dared to be herself. I want to be remembered as a catalyst for change in America.”
—Shirley Chisholm
Chisholm wanted to be remembered as a “catalyst for change.” What did she do?
Shirley Anita Chisholm was a politician, educator, and writer. There would be no Barack Obama or Kamala Harris without her—she was a trailblazer in every sense of the word.
Citing her “double-handicap” of being a Black woman, Chisholm initially rejected a political career but became increasingly engaged in fighting racial and gender inequality. She eventually joined the Democratic Party in Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn, winning a seat in the United States Congress in 1968, and becoming the first Black woman to do so.
What did she achieve in politics?
With a seat at the table, “Fighting Shirley” introduced over 50 pieces of legislation on behalf of the poor, protesting racial and gender inequality. She became a fierce critic of the Vietnam War when opposition to the war was considered radical. Her outspoken assault on injustice earned her few friends in the white political establishment.
While campaigning for the 1972 primaries, Chisholm was allowed only one speech in televised debates and was otherwise blocked from participation. Despite this, students, women, and minorities proved loyal supporters: In 12 primaries, she garnered 152 (10%) of delegates’ votes, despite a poorly financed campaign and widespread political hostility.
The 1972 primaries also displayed her remarkable character, when she chose to visit racist and segregationist Governor George Wallace of Alabama in hospital after a failed assassination attempt.
After retiring from Congress in 1983, Chisholm taught at Mount Holyoke College and co-founded the National Political Congress of Black Women.
Original portrait by Tumblr Creatr @banana-peppers
“It was an honor to create a piece celebrating Shirley Chisholm. She was the first Black woman elected to Congress and to seek a major party nomination for presidency. Her trailblazing career is truly inspiring and I wanted to capture her power, her bravery and her magic. Her motto Unbought and Unbossed implores us to forge our own path no matter what obstacles try to stand in our way."

Albert Einstein's desk on the day of his death, April 18th, 1955. The renowned theoretical physicist was working on a unified theory, a single elegant theory to combine gravity and electromagnetism. He was motivated by an intellectual need to unify the forces of nature. More so, he felt strongly that all of nature must be described by a single theory. During his Nobel lecture in 1923, Gothenburg, Sweden he commented;
"The intellectual seeking after an integrated theory cannot rest content with the assumption that there exist two distinct fields totally independent of each other by their nature."
