Just a few, hopefully last, thoughts: 1) Please think about how you frame your discussion about BAM/SB. What’s a popcorn drama or a fun meme source to you is bringing up real pain and trauma to those BAM harmed.
2) Check out #BlackInNeuroWeek. It was wrapping up as this was all unfolding, and it’s really worth checking out, especially if you missed the last day.
3) If I’m ever following or interacting positively with someone you know to be abusuve, please tell me. I unfollowed and muted BAM ages ago, so I’d missed SB’s close interactions with her. With a large account and a lot going on, I miss things. I’m always happy to be corrected.

Going to try to live tweet some take-homes from this panel on #neuroracism for anyone who is missing it. #BlackInNeuroWeek @blackinneuro
Nice to see that the panelists are a mixture of later and earlier career neuroscientists!
