“The enterprise of science has been — and remains — complicit in systemic racism, and it must strive harder to correct those injustices and amplify marginalized voices,” says a Nature editorial. “We recognize that Nature is one of the white institutions that is responsible for bias in research and scholarship.” The editorial lays out the journal’s commitment to establishing a process that will hold us to account on the many changes we need to make. This will include a special issue of the journal, under the guidance of a guest editor, exploring systemic racism in research, research policy and publishing.
