On 10 June, Nature is joining #ShutDownSTEM #ShutDownAcademia #Strike4BlackLives, an initiative of STEM academics and organizations pausing their standard activities to focus on actions to eliminate anti-Black racism.

As we wrote earlier this week, Nature stands against all forms of racism. We also recognize that Nature is one of the white institutions that is responsible for bias in research and scholarship, and that we must strive harder to correct those injustices and amplify marginalized voices.

During the day, we will therefore be stopping business as usual to focus on what we can do better. This includes the following:

• We will delay online publication of this week’s issue by one day, to Thursday 11 June.

• We will almost exclusively work on and publish content about supporting Black people in academia and STEM. The sole exception is content related to the global pandemic of COVID-19.

• We will meet to discuss and begin planning how we can help eradicate racism from Nature, from academia and from STEM, and help support Black people in academia and STEM.

• We will spend time listening, reading, reflecting and educating ourselves on racism in STEM and how to address it.

Thank you for your support on this day. We hope you will join us.

So much racism in STEM that East Asians, indians and non-black South Americans are doing better in STEM institutes than even White people!!!!..........:rofl::rofl::rofl:

ANYTHING where blacks are doing poorly in is WHITE RACISM.........:rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:
 
They train people to become entrepreneurs or
work in companies so that they earn money and get out of poverty. Many IIM alumni have started companies which employ thousands of people.

They don't have to do anything else for so called socio-economic problems because it is not their domain.




I also invite @Shantanu_Left @ChennaiDude and @xeuss for the test.

Kitna rote rahoge uske peeche? For your kind she is just a poster of victimhood. You cry fake tears here. Some more sophisticated leftists will cry fake tears in Washington Post, New York Times and The Guardian. They will be paid in dollars which they will use to buy expensive champagne.

Let me ask you one thing. The students of IITs IIMs and LPUs don't claim to work for the upliftment of that woman. but the jhollachapps of JNU claim to have sympathy. What did they do?

Do you accept or not that she was a victim, that too of totally avoidable circumstances ?

Allow ( or even vote ) those jholachaaps to come to power. The socio-economic disparity and injustices in the country will greatly reduce in five years.
