Here's a good overview of the student protests in France, which began in Paris suburbs, in working-class schools attended by many black & brown students, & have spread nationwide. The government has tried to end the protests through violent repression. It hasn't worked. f24.my/CCfu

NEW: In March the White House released an FY27 budget request that zeroed out the National Science Foundation's directorate of Social, Behavioral and Economic Sciences (SBE). For months it was unclear what would happen. Now, with FY26 over, the damage to SBE is coming to light. My reporting:

Marshall has mis-timed the market. We are still 6-14 months out from the amnesia cycle of this white reconstruction.

"Scholars of colour often described having their objectivity and scientific rigour questioned, including suggestions that their work was below standard or ideologically motivated. White scholars, who also studied racial issues, rarely described receiving such intense scrutiny and doubt"

"For many Black scholars, academia is a burning house. If we cannot extinguish that fire, Black scholars will always bear a greater risk of being burned–& therefore have to insulate themselves against the risk more than others." @cydneydupree.bsky.social

this passage from @cydneydupree.bsky.social @mwkraus.bsky.social & Brittany Torez's new study jumps off the page as such a clear distillation of one of intersectionality theory's most underappreciated insights: the ever-present baselining to whiteness.

www.nature.com/articles/s41...

One scholar recalled, "We had this norm that you need a White control condition like you need to compare… That is the norm. And it was frustrating because it’s like, ‘Do we need that to just talk about minority experiences?’” (RM_16). Scholars were asked by reviewers to explain how they can “generalize”, even though “When we have majority White samples, no one asks that question, it is just seen as a standard.” (RM_19).
