Physical chemist Ruth Benerito died #OTD in 2013. She pioneered a key chemical process, cross-linking, which led to wrinkle-resistant cotton fabrics. It transformed the cotton industry & helped save it from competition w/synthetic fibers. #WomenInSTEM She held >50 patents. #inventor
Color photograph of scientist Ruth Benerito in a chemistry laboratory. She is an older woman with curly white hair, wearing large round gold-framed glasses, subtle makeup, small black earrings, a silver ring, and a light blue lab coat over a collared shirt. She sits or stands thoughtfully with her chin resting on her hand, gazing slightly off-camera with a serious, contemplative expression. Behind and beside her is complex scientific glassware apparatus, including a round-bottom flask labeled "BUCHI PLASTIC-GLAS," green-tinted tubing, a distillation setup with clamps, connectors, and other lab equipment mounted on stands. The background shows more blurred lab instrumentation, evoking a professional research environment at the USDA Southern Regional Research Center where she conducted her groundbreaking work on cotton chemistry.

Zionism in my opinion is a political polemic that sees Israel and it's people as ethno-supremicist. The Isrealis have rights, including the right to vote that Arabs and Palestinians do not have. That is apartheid and racist And I don't give a fuck what they say

50% of modern medicines come from plants. 70% of cancer treatments come from nature. The Amazon holds 10% of all life on Earth. We've studied <1% of it for medicine. We are cutting down cures faster than we can discover them. Every forest cleared = A cure lost.

The CIA has claimed that Israel is one step away from Civil War and total collapse. As Apartheid, forced conscription and fears of reprisals for their War Crimes have driven a large percentage of the population against the Government.

On this day in 1917, Fannie Lou Hamer was born. She became a civil rights crusader who risked her life in mobilizing to make the right to vote a practical reality for people of color. She asked: “Is this America, the land of the free and the home of the brave?” #WeTheMen

I'm not interested in the theoretical debate about whether Zionism is inherently racist, I'm more concerned with reality and that the actual Israeli STATE is extremely racist and currently engaged in a well documented genocide against the Palestinian people.

Extraordinary the way the media is framing anti-Zionism as violent and saying it somehow calls for the extermination of Jews when Zionism is responsible for a genocide and literally exterminating Palestinians. The projection is truly off the charts.

New Cornell 7 rape group chat details are horrifying. The men say the “shop is open”. They reassure others that the victim is on birth control. They say “I hope it’s not another fatty”. It sounds like they’ve done this before. How many times? How many victims?
