So, I've been wondering – are there any Biological/Clinical or Chemistry Departments in the US and Canada with both senior (full professor/associate/dean) and junior (assistant) professors that are Black/African American, Hispanic/Latinx or Indigenous/Native American?

I actually read all 216 pages of Florida's new state social studies standards, and the enslaved-people-benefitting-from-slavery is not even the worst part. They basically created a K-12 course in Caucasian Race Theory
Here's the top 10 problems I found:

Someone @CIHR_IRSC has to reconsider this! I understand specific font for the text, but figures take whatever space they take, regardless of font! What is the point of this? Journals require Arial/Helvetica for Figs, now we need to redo them for grants? Waste of time for all!

What if I told you there are STILL sundown towns?! And they’re NOT just in the South! They’re ALL over the country there are a LOT in rural OH & Indiana so we never take the scenic route just main thoroughfares. Y’all act like this is ancient history when it’s not even history

Elsevier's revenue: £2.9 billion. WTF?
We scientists produce the content for manuscripts and review for free. Then we pay huge fees for open access publishing. Science should not be business. What on earth can we do to fight against this?

🧵 Thank you for your concern about the AI images of my father, #MLK, with a former president.
I have decided not to draw anymore attention here to the photos or to the account sharing them.
Instead, each time you see one (or whenever), share this: africa.upenn.edu/Articles_Ge…

Identifying the genes responsible for developmental syndromes can be like finding a needle in a haystack. Loydie Jerome-Majewska @lamsciworld @mcgillu will show us how that can be done using animal models #2023SDB

"In the United States, the pregnancy-related mortality rate for Afro-descendent women who completed college education or higher is 5.2 times higher than that for white women with the same educational attainment."
So, no, it's not only about classism!

Dear @JustinTrudeau
Don't tell me that you haven't heard of the inhumane treatment African refugees are enduring right now, sleeping on the streets of Toronto. These people deserve similar treatment as Ukranian refugees who were immediately housed and provided with healthcare.

A mob????
Do you think you might want to write that headline a little more accurately and a little less racist?
"Group of Indigenous protesters arrive at home of a man who desecrated a memorial for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls and 2S"
