A mini-thread of resources for promoting (and understanding systemic issues behind) equity in the Geosciences:
Why the geosciences are the least diverse of all STEM fields: "No progress on diversity in 40 years" from @NatureGeosci https://www.nature.com/articles/s41561-018-0116-6
Barriers in geoscience disciplines that limit diversity: "Scientists push against barriers to diversity in the field sciences" from @ScienceMagazine featuring work by the FIELD project https://www.sciencemag.org/careers/2020/03/scientists-push-against-barriers-diversity-field-sciences
Educational resources, workshops and community for improving diversity in the geosciences: https://serc.carleton.edu/integrate/programs/diversity/why_diversity.html
Follow @BlackGeoRocks @NABGSocial @DiverseGeos and scientists posting their stories under the #BlackinNature and #BlackinSTEM and keep doing the work of #ShutDownSTEM to leverage your power to actively focus on inclusivity
Follow the folks at @AccessibleGEO doing amazing intersectional work to support geoscientists with disabilities
