Geoscience organizations shape the discipline. They influence attitudes and expectations, set standards, and provide benefits to their members. Today, racism and discrimination limit the participation of, and promote hostility towards, members of minoritized groups within these critical geoscience spaces. This is particularly harmful for Black, Indigenous, and other people of color in geoscience and is further exacerbated along other axes of marginalization, including disability status and gender identity. Here we present a twenty-point anti-racism plan that organizations can implement to build an inclusive, equitable and accessible geoscience community. Enacting it will combat racism, discrimination, and the harassment of all members.
地球科学组织塑造着这一学科。它们影响态度和期望,制定标准,并为其成员提供福利。如今,种族主义和歧视限制了这些关键地球科学领域中少数群体成员的参与,并助长了对他们的敌意。这对地球科学领域的黑人、原住民和其他有色人种尤其有害,并且在包括残疾状况和性别认同在内的其他边缘化轴线上进一步加剧。在此,我们提出一项二十点的反种族主义计划,各组织可以实施该计划来建立一个包容、公平且无障碍的地球科学社区。实施该计划将打击对所有成员的种族主义、歧视和骚扰行为。
