    Today was a very bad day for democracy. Tomorrow will only be better if we all fight for it.

    So much insight in this thread — about (an annual multi-site conf for women undergrads in physics) but also about where we are making progress and where we still have so much room to grow, especially in terms of the environment that women of color in physics experience.

    In honor of today, I would encourage everyone but especially my white colleagues to read this important report from the Task Force to Elevate African American Representation in Undergraduate Physics & Astronomy (TEAM-UP).

    The SAGA survey part 2 will be out soon. Three times as many Milky-Way like systems, but results below still hold.

    Ha ha of course I had a typo in this tweet.🤣 We and the Galaxy our Sun formed in likely *wouldn't* be here without it, because we need dark matter or something a lot like it in order to form enough structure to get galaxies to form.

    Check out this TED talk by Stanford University Professor and DEScientist Risa Wechsler! She talks about her research on dark matter, including results from the Dark Energy Survey.

    Dark matter is most of the mass in the Universe; we and our galaxy likely would be here without it, but what is it? More about how we are mapping it out, how we can learn about it with tiny galaxies, and how we might find out what it is at my !

    Really looking forward to a detailed reading of this important report. The fraction of physics and astronomy degrees awarded to African Americans has stayed dismally low for way too long. The time is definitely now for systemic change.

    Hey Stanford undergrads, I'm teaching a super fun class this quarter on everything in the Universe... you should consider joining us! No math or physics background required! Hope to see some of you in Physics 16 on Tuesday :)

    The last decade was incredibly challenging, incredibly wonderful. The hardest parts AND the successes helped me learn about and grow into myself. Here's hoping for at least as much growth and bravery in the next decade. Happy new year, all.
