Thousands of scientists worldwide to go on strike for Black lives

Scientists go on strike for Black lives

More than 5,000 scientists, as well as societies, universities and publishers, have downed their usual tools today to focus on dismantling systemic anti-Black racism and oppression. The event is being planned by two ad hoc groups of scientists using hashtags such as #Strike4BlackLives#ShutDownSTEM and #ShutDownAcademia. The physical-sciences preprint server arXiv and the American Association for the Advancement of Science, along with its main journal, Science, are among the influential institutions committed to the strike — as is Nature.
