I am fundraising for a brilliant and kind disabled colleague in a precarious academic position who is facing homelessness and medical debt. Would you please help out, as much as you can? We need mutual aid in these horrific times. Please RT. Venmo: @ Ariel-Lambe Thank you!

My husband, Prof. Steve Tamari, is out of the hospital. He will need surgery on his hand, and he is in pain from nine broken ribs. We are asking for time to rest and heal. We will not be taking media interviews at this time. Here is Steve's statement and ways you can support.

I wanted to do more for #DisabilityPrideMonth, but the reality is that I’m struggling to survive. Being #DisabledInSTEM is a battle every single day and I’m exhausted.

If you're looking for a great book for your course this semester on structural racism and health, I highly recommend @layallivs's excellent SYSTEMIC. But also, I am super excited that Dr. Liverpool highlighted at length Dr./Prof. Keolu Fox myself Native BioData Consortium and IndigiData as examples of
