Words of advice from @CvonVacano @rabarretom @LauraK_Nelson @RochelleTerman at #WiDS2021: Lean into yourself. Be your full person. Be true to yourself. Submit to the top journal and go for tenure even if you are discouraged. Use that negativity to fuel your passion! #DataScience

There is no perfect dataset! @LauraK_Nelson says that we need to acknowledge the subjectivities, limitations, and biases. That is what makes a robust dataset and overall #DataScience field. #WiDS2021

A great example at #wids2021 of infusing theory into the #DataScience process and critically assessing the work is @CvonVacano's recent research project and publication about using #DeepLearning to study #HateSpeech arxiv.org/abs/2009.10277

Each of these amazing women speaking today at #WiDS2021 is challenging the dominant paradigms of #DataScience, #machinelearning, and #AI in order to promote #intersectionality and #blackfeminism in teaching and research @LauraK_Nelson @CvonVacano @rabarretom @RochelleTerman
