The vibe of Black people working on NIH projects right now:

A screenshot from the Apple Music display of Kendrick Lamar's "Wacced Out Murals." It reads:

"Yesterday, somebody whacked out my mural
That energy will make you **** move to Europe

But it's regular for me, yeah, that's for sure

The love and hate is definite without a
cure"

Have y'all actually looked at the NSF DEI hit-list? It's an excel spreadsheet that sorts NSF projects into the categories: "social justice," "race," "gender," and "environmental justice." Wow. If your scientific project mentions "women" or "gender" at all, it's "inefficient," woke, DEI, etc. 🤷🏾‍♂️
