If you value having access to healthcare at all, it was made possible by research currently being censored by the US government. Sign this Declaration to Defend Research and pass long! @celj.bsky.social @kairosdoug.bsky.social @kairosrtp.bsky.social

Do you have things to say and/or questions you want asked about peer review in the humanities? Contribute questions or topics (rough or ready) to CELJ's form as they prepare a wide-scale survey on peer review in humanities journal publishing that includes a focus on diversity, equity, and inclusion!
