The year 2020 provided a wake-up call about the role systemic racism plays in shaping our nation and shaping science. While hard work and great mentors helped bring me a long way from a farm in Minnesota, it's become much clearer that the privilege of being white and male and the accumulated advantages that began there played powerful roles. It's time for white scientists like me to listen, think, and take action.
2020 年敲响了警钟,让我们认识到系统性种族主义在塑造我们的国家和科学方面所起的作用。虽然努力工作和优秀的导师帮助我从明尼苏达州的一个农场走了很长一段路,但现在已经变得更加清楚的是,作为一个白人男性所拥有的特权和由此产生的累积优势发挥了强大的作用。像我这样的白人科学家是时候倾听、思考和采取行动了。
