It's all gone. They've taken down all the CDC datasets from data.cdc.gov
Data that's critical for public health & research. Data paid for by citizens. That the government now censors.
"Do not fear those who tell the truth. Fear those who try to hide it. They are willing to sacrifice other things."

Are there any BIPOC marine mammal scientists open to connecting with an early career scientist to discuss career development and navigating racism in the field?

Ugh. I have no idea what has happened to the US. Elon and Dump, the far right swing and people too stupid to even understand propaganda (e.g., TikTok, snoop dog, zuckerwanker). Brother’s family is wondering if they have jobs in the morning and it’s all a bit overwhelming to watch from Aotearoa.

White and right "scholars" arguing for universities to be politically neutral is a very thinly veiled way to silence Māori scholars and to allow hate on campuses. Fuck political neutrality.
