Our group’s values of equity and respect are more important than ever to affirm and broadcast in light of the ongoing and largely peaceful protests associated with the Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement. Racism and discrimination are unfortunately pervasive, and also affect academia. We stand with BLM in the peaceful struggle for justice and equality. Part of the problem is the spread of divisive language and misinformation on social media, and we’re proud to support an open letter to Mark Zuckerberg calling for action on posts that might endanger people’s lives or well-being.
