Most scientists from the Global South are not able to afford Open Access (OA). An OA article can equal 3 or 4 of our monthly salaries or the full yearly amount of one of our grants. This discriminatory situation creates a double-standard in science dissemination.

Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump made $640 million while “working” in daddy Trump’s administration, and six months after leaving the White House, Kushner secured a $2 billion investment from a fund led by the Saudi crown prince.

That is what corruption looks like. Not some laptop.

To hell with Republicans and their “traditional American values.” — The U.S. would be better off by simply embracing the teachings of its Indigenous communities — wouldn’t you agree?

Charter schools and private schools aren’t required to admit every child. They aren’t required to have a SpEd program or make accommodations. Public schools are required to accept every child and meet their needs…defunding public schools threatens the most vulnerable kids.

BREAKING: We're suing to block Alabama from criminalizing doctors who provide gender-affirming care to trans youth.

Two families of trans youth are suing the state of Alabama so medically-necessary care is not taken away.

Our children are leaving college owing the equivalent of a mortgage before they even own a home and have a mortgage.

We've got to relieve student debt. It'll lower people’s burdens and spur entrepreneurship.
