I lived thru the end of public smoking. Early in my career I presented to city councils who were smoking, in front of audiences who were smoking.

Smoking in restaurants, airplanes, hospitals…

All of that seems insane now, but it was very controversial when we DID change it.

We CAN change things.

Very grateful to be recognised by @busaracenter.bsky.social Voice and Impact team; the team behind every effort to expand the reach of our research and work in development and behavioral science

Exactly.

We're all witnessing entire people being starved to death-as a form of genocide, and yet we're still just doing our business as usual. We're not dropping everything in our hands, taking a stance together that THIS CANNOT BE WHAT DEFINES US AS HUMANS.
The world as it is now is a true nightmare.

If you're a professor, you have a LOT of power. Not to freak you out, but authoritarian regimes' favorite first move is to shut down the intellectuals in one way or another. Which means you're a threat to them.

Use your power. Speak out. Go on TV. Give interviews. Be loud!
