We shall rise again, are you with me?

The retaliation right now against justice movements is such a deep expression of Sara Ahmed’s quote “We become a problem when we describe a problem.”

People may point to you as the “problem” when you call out injustice- hella hegemonic. Keep on speaking your truth!

Trump Has Cut Science Funding to Its Lowest Level in Decades The lag in funding extends far beyond D.E.I. initiatives, affecting almost every area of science: chemistry, computing, engineering, materials and more.

NSF cuts also means less money for undergraduate and graduate students, the US public and communities worldwide that benefit from research.

A wonderful colleague just sent me this. They say “While it is impossible for private philanthropy to close the gap left by federal funders, we can provide modest grants to mitigate some of the impact on scholars, projects, and project teams.” Y’all are our MVPs ! www.spencer.org/grant_types/...

Very helpful. Also check in with SPOs and program officers (if they haven’t been fired 😬) for specifics.

Exclusive: NSF stops awarding new grants and funding existing ones US science funder also plans to screen grant applications for compliance with ‘agency priorities’.

A midwife says of the aid cuts in Afghanistan: 'No one prioritizes women's lives.' With the abrupt shutdown of USAID funding, many clinics, including those serving women in remote areas, have shuttered. Midwives are reporting that mothers and babies are dying as a result.

Letter to Faculty on Self-Censorship and Boldness (opinion) In a letter to fellow faculty, Nolan L. Cabrera argues that self-censorship is not a strategy for self-preservation.

“Bending the knee and precomplying will not stave off these attacks.

Acquiescing to censorship will not stop the threats.

Only engaging in collective, bold, public, strategic struggle & disruption has the potential to do so.

We did not pick this fight, but this is the fight that we are in.”
