We’ve lost a dear friend, colleague, and brilliant scholar, Dr Juliet Daniel (to my left in this photo). She was a McMaster University Distinguished Professor, a proud Barbadian-Canadian, a fierce EDI advocate & a leader of the Canada Caribbean Initiative (CCI). May her soul rest in eternal peace.

Also, the Old White Dude issue is real but only because the universities go after big names instead of future potential (to boost their marketing). IMHO, they should focus on people at the assistant/assoc prof level. Not full profs. The younger are far more likely to have impact and stay. /2
