Agree👇! A reminder of just how quickly institutions bend the knee & how eager many individuals/institutions are to enforce & enact clearly undemocratic & often blatantly racist edicts. This, combined with the apathy ("I'm ok") of the masses, is exactly how fascism and dictatorship take hold.

Today I lost an NIH grant training clinicians to do research about intimate partner violence with perinatal women. More women are murdered in the perinatal period than die of obstetric complications. I didn't just lose a grant. We lost an entire cohort of people building careers to prevent that.
