Last week, my nephew was hospitalized after going into cardiac arrest. Since then, Junior has underwent several surgeries, including open-heart surgery. Thanks to his medical care team, Junior is recovering. This crisis has created financial strain [1/2]

Great editorial in @ScienceMagazine:
"For centuries, Indigenous scientists have had to adapt to, and develop fluency in, Western modes of knowledge making. It’s now Western scientists’ turn to learn from, and respect, Indigenous science."
