Lotería is a traditional Mexican game of chance, using images on a deck of cards instead of numbers. I decided to create my own version of lotería cards with science-related images, such as gloves, centrifuge, pipette, and even a reviewer. I wanted to combine my passion for science and art in a fun and creative way. I hope you enjoy my science lotería as much as I enjoyed making it. Let me know what you think and if you have any suggestions for more cards.

My friend asked me about Indigenous books I’ve read this year and I’d love to start a thread for him. What’s been your best read over the last three years from an Indigenous author? 🏁

Peer-reviewed research shows Native mascots & team names lead to increased depression & lower self worth in Native youth. In @forbeshealth, Indigenous Peoples are calling the @Chiefs (also their twitter handle?!) to recognize this and #ChangeTheName.
