    [#NeuroRacism | Before Neuroscience 🧡] To start the story of racism in neuroscience, we'll have to go back even before neuroscience existed, to the age of Enlightenment. This is when the scientists tried, for the first time, to classify humans.
    Oil painting of room all full of white people from the Age of Enlightenment, with gold-framed portraits of white people on the wall. Could be 1750, could be some seminars in 2020.

    Ya’ll thought we were done?! πŸ—£πŸ—£πŸ—£ We've shown you that Black scholars are out here and thriving. But we ALSO know that Black representation gets worse at every level, with abysmal percentages in faculty positions and leadership roles. Let's change that. ✊🏾🧠
    Text reads: Wondering how you can make a difference? #RecruitBlackInNeuro. Image displays the BlackInNeuro logo with a purple background.
