What is PRIDE? To me, it means learning to love yourself more than needing to be loved by others. It means pain, acceptance, strength. It means surviving, then thriving, then standing tall so others may do the same. To me, it says *this* is what some families look like. #PRIDE

@CantlonLab It seems to be the goal of all the accounts and the overall PR campaign. To pretend it’s all about one woman’s relationship and then discredit her, to distract from the chorus of others. Otherwise they have to argue that we are all liars. Or we’re offended by a few profanities.

Third, Black scientists have to write twice as many grants just to keep up, in addition to the extra DEI service we expect of them. This means they have less time for research, papers, and seminars. It also means they have less time to train, teach, and inspire Black students.

Let's remember that $32M would be enough to achieve racial funding equity and #FundBlackScientists . Unfortunately @BillAckman doesn't understand how he could actually use his money to "benefit humanity".

Congratulations to DR. Colleen O'Connor, who defended her PhD thesis with flying colors this week. Colleen is absolutely meticulous, rigorous, and thoughtful scientist. She perseveres through all problems, big and small, and is an impactful finisher.

Why is this disparity critically important? First, we commonly use @NIH R01’s to gauge “success” of faculty when it comes time for tenure. Black faculty without an R01 may not get tenure. The pipeline “leak” is not a leak, but rather us pushing Black faculty over a cliff.

Step 2: @NIH must immediately institute a policy to achieve racial funding equity (red ladder below). @NIH already has programs to base the design of such a program on, such as the Early State Investigator (ESI) program or PAR-19-222.

We ask, If racism exists in academia, how can it not exist in NIH grant review and research, which are performed by academics? NIH must break its cycle of denial, which in the words of scholar @DrIbram is “the heartbeat of racism.” Step 1: @NIH must acknowledge this racism.
