The act of writing can serve many purposes. It can be used to inform. It can be used to resist. It can be used to heal. Jasmin Graham & I wrote an essay about our terminated NSF grant, and hopefully, it accomplishes some of those goals.

Most of us in higher ed in the US are going to lose something over the next four years (opportunities, or funding, or time). But if we believe universities exist, in part, to preserve historical memory and create a space for dissent, our primary job right now is to fight and take the hit.

Today, a broad coalition of scientific professional societies who represent over 92,000 scientists are speaking out against the politicization and demonization of Federally funded science and government scientist jobs.
It was an honor to help the Union of Concerned Scientists with this! 🧪🌎
