Biases derived from these privileges are often unconscious, until something shines a light on them. In my case, it was seeing that guy delivering newspapers on a Sunday morning.

Just felt like reposting this, to remind myself and others. "I have the privilege of opportunity. And, like other privileges that one has had for a long time or is born into, my opportunity privilege is one that I’ve not been at least keenly aware of."

"it’s hard to perfect the number of layers you should wear when it’s freezing out" Well, not if you experiment a bit until you perfect your "dressing for running, from cold to warm" ( https://t.co/FmtoaVP3J1)

"Being purely reactive to political attacks ... or assuming an artificial air of neutrality ... are both ethically problematic and practically detrimental." “political advocacy ... should be embraced as a central aspect of science’s social mission.”
