Broadwaybabyto<p>Here we go again… the folks who ran on “freedom of speech” are censoring words at the National Science Foundation. </p><p>Want your grant to be considered? Here’s a lengthy list of things thou must not say. Like disability, female, trauma, marginalized, minorities, lgbt, or racism</p><p>For decades we’ve been fighting to close the “health gap”… Which is a term given to the differences in healthcare a marginalized person receives compared to a cishet white male. </p><p>Ask any marginalized person about their interactions with the healthcare system, and you’ll hear at least one horror story. I’ve repeatedly written about how much better my care is if I bring a white man with me. </p><p>This level of censorship will wipe out all the progress we’ve made. </p><p>If you look at the list, the only thing left to study will be straight white men. </p><p>Censorship and science don’t mix. The only people who seek to benefit from this egregious gagging of research institutions and public health are those pushing a white supremacy agenda. </p><p><a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/nationalsciencefoundation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>nationalsciencefoundation</span></a> <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/censorship" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>censorship</span></a> <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/fascism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>fascism</span></a> <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/authoritarianism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>authoritarianism</span></a> <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/diversity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>diversity</span></a> <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/dei" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>dei</span></a> <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/deia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>deia</span></a> <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/inclusion" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>inclusion</span></a> <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/disability" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>disability</span></a> <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/uspoli" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>uspoli</span></a></p>
