Head to queerliberationlibrary.org/members to sign up! 📚🌈

I will post this opt out list regularly. If you’ve finished, prioritize spreading the word. AND building mutual aid connections. You can join our Telegram group for help doing so. Spread the message with love. No purity tests. Just doing the best we each can.

With everything happening in the US right now, how safe are scientific conferences for foreign participants in the US? I think this is something we have to discuss as a scientific community. I am hesitating to register for US meetings due to the unpredictable situation. Others who feel the same?
