I've racked up grant rejection after rejection over the last 7 or 8 years. During this time, I had a hard time reading happy funding announcements on twitter. So this is a happy funding announcement but with caveats. 🧵

I’ve heard countless stories of #BlackWomenInNeuro feeling the need to shrink ourselves to fit into spaces not made for us.

I have been told to change my hair, my style, my voice.
Be quieter, more complicit and demure.

Not to speak up for injustices b/c I might ruffle feathers.

[Black In Neuro 🧠 @BlackInNeuro]

CW/TW for the day: slavery, racism, eugenics.

Today we are talking about #NeuroRacism. This means discussions on how racism is historically present in neuroscience, to this day.

This is crucial to understand where we have been and where we are, to pave a better way forward.

Kids are so amazing at learning about others, including based on how they *speak*! 🤯 We're so excited to learn more in @UChicago's @K_Kinzler's new book, "How You Say It" https://t.co/4qCCgwXW2e

One of our favorite things to do in the summer is explore nature 🌳🦉🐿️! Lucky for us, @PLT has lots of fun activities for #caregivers & #EDUcators to do with the kiddos. Check them out whether you explore nature in your backyard or at a national park! https://t.co/TspaD9VYKV
