Unacceptable that professional society like @ASBMB normalises racism. Attempts to silence URM scientists for fear professional retribution.
What message are you sending underrepresented scientists @ASBMB - that racism should be tolerated as core business?https://twitter.com/DNLee5/status/831559428423970821 …

the researcher in question also pretends the women's march unified everyone when in reality it excluded a lot of ppl
-
Yes - important point! That's Whiteness: uncritical acceptance that White people's experiences are universal. Nope
-
if anything that blog post should've spoke the truth of the issue and not defended some girl's white fragility
-
She doesn't need defending but want to stress - despite her considerable experience DNLee is still a junior scholar!

Last point on racism by
@ASBMB: author says they had time to reflect & still felt angry & entitled to express this on professional platform -
"I felt feels and the pushback from ppl in spheres proves a priori that my feels are justified"
-
"Let’s stop the pointless bickering and online yelling." Perpetual argument to undermine WOChttps://www.bgdblog.org/2014/02/toxicity-true-story-mainstream-feminisms-violent-gatekeepers/ …
-
"let's stop thinking critically about the history of colonialism in science "
-
or as someone told a native during the women's march "Let's be unified, not intersectional!"
-
Ugh - what an awful enforcement of racial domination. Especially insidious when directed at Indigenous women...
-
also if you didn't see the threads from Native women on twitter abt the march it'll make you glad u didn't participate
-
I definitely saw & RT. I attended march & critiqued. (See Intersectionality & Lessons from USA) https://othersociologist.com/2017/02/01/womens-march-sydney/ …

Yet WOC are (unjustly) positioned as being aggressive in their reaction to racism. White anger=legitimate. WOC emotions=cannibalistic
