Before we start talking about diversity and inclusion lets put this on the table. STEM instutions, societies and departments are inherently racist. We have to acknowledge STEM's racist roots, how it's been used against Black people and the illusion of objectivity.

Sheesh! The way I really want to write these DEI statements for these faculty positions would have me fired before I even get hired. Lol

[Dr. Monica Cox @DrMonicaCox]

Instead of showing me your diversity statement, show me your hiring data, your discrimination claim stats, your salary tables, your retention numbers, your diversity policies, and your leaders’ public actions against racism.

End performative allyship.

Between registration, travel (airfare and ground transportation), lodging (assuming you share a room with someone), and food… these scientific research conference costs are like $2500… but the travel awards be like $500-1500, if you’re lucky enough to get one
