While indirect costs for NIH grants need reformed this is not the way to do it. This will gut current projects & severely harm our place within medical tesearch. One more action of this administration with devastating consequences.

The new president just unwound a landmark anti-discrimination measure implemented amid the height of the Civil Rights Movement.
โThe rule Trump nuked, Executive Order 11246, forbade federal contractors from discriminating on the basis of race, color, religion, national origin, sex, sexual orientation or gender identity.โ www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-...

But in 1965, LBJ issued exec order 11246 banning discrimination in federal hiring and with federal contractors. That order helped re-build the Black middle class and today DC is home to the nation's most economically thriving Black community. Today, Trump rescinded that landmark order as well.

Section 3(b)(i) of President Trumpโs 01/21/25 misleadingly named EO โending illegal discriminationโ provides:
โExecutive Order 11246 of September 24, 1965 (Equal Employment Opportunity), is hereby revoked.โ There goes six decades of progress toward justice begun by LBJ.

My 6 year old said she would really like it if the housing insecure could sleep on the b an bags in our youth room at our church. She thought is was a good solution for warmth and comfort.

I was raised in a multi-generational organizing family and I can say with firsthand knowledge that 20th century organizers read theory and they studied history and literature quite closely
The need to do that hasnโt changed
If studying history isnโt part of your organizing work, change that
