The front third of the bus is for white only, pardon, women only.

Things that remain centerstage today in the #marginalization of so many
There's a long history of #segregation and #uglylaws, on and on, to keep those who don't conform with expected norms from having an affect on the lulled masses
#fascist #hiearchical #capitalist #elitism is present in systems that are not, nor ever were, built to help the #marginalized
They created the very disparity seen still today
Lucas's Subtle Segregation Commentary - Richard Miniter on Triggernometry
I can see #Starmer throwing #Phillipson and #Falkner under the bus and trying to walk it back a little, claiming he was nisinformed. It might be the least embarassing move. But then again he does have the political instincts of a wombat.
Quite interesting things said on #OpenScience #Security and #Geopolitics at the Research Council of Finland annual forum for science #TiedeFoorumi.
Also, my colleague and PI, Olle Järv, was awarded the academy award for his work on #CrossBorder #Mobility and #Segregation studies.
I've heard from more than a couple friends in New Orleans of family stories of ancestors legally "Colored" in Louisiana who left the state or country and later returned with legal documentation classifying them as "White".
While the current US President wages his dogwhistle war on "DEI", this is not the first time a President of the United States has tried to re-segregate the country. But it has been a while. Woodrow Wilson re-segregated the Federal government in 1913.

Today in Labor History May 17, 1954: Brown v. Board of Education went into effect. In this case, the Supreme Court ruled that "separate but equal" public education was unconstitutional, and a violation of the 14th Amendment. The ruling reversed the 1896 "separate but equal" Plessy vs Ferguson decision. However, researchers at Stanford and USC have recently found that, in spite of this SCOTUS ruling, racial segregation in the nation’s 100 largest school districts has increased by 64% since 1988, while economic segregation increased by 50% since 1991. While residential segregation was a major driving force for school segregation in the past, the primary driving force for today’s segregation is the School Choice movement, which has allowed hundreds of charter schools to open up, many for-profit. During the 2021-2022 school year, 7.4% of all public-school students, 3.7 million kids, attended charter schools. And there tends to be much more segregation within charter schools. Additionally, there has been a decline in court oversight of segregation in schools, resulting from a number of lawsuits in the 1990s against affirmative action policies.

Our visiting researcher Davi Gressler presents his work on assessing realized 15-minute trips in US cities and comparing that to trips that were longer but could have been made in 15 minutes using SafeGraph data.
The second day of #LBS2025 conference is about to start, and so is the onslaught of presentations from @digigeolab members and alumni on topics like #mobility #BigData #GIScience #MachineLearning #NatureRecreation #Segregation #EcosystemServices #Geography
I have the dubious honor of the very last presentation of the day, acting as the firewall between the scientific program and the conference dinner. Let's see how many turn up

The Justice Department ended a decades-old school desegregation order. Others are expected to fall
"Inside the Justice Department, officials appointed by President Donald Trump have expressed desire to withdraw from other desegregation orders they see as an unnecessary burden on schools."
"Research on districts released from orders has found that many saw greater increases in racial segregation compared with those under court orders."
What we see is the veneer of civilization falling away to reveal desperate animals, humanity at their worst.

« "[The Smithsonian] jouit d'une réputation internationale pour l'intégrité de ses recherches. Il n'y a aucune raison pour que le président interfère. Et ça ne s'est jamais produit jusqu'ici", rappelle-t-il. "La raison de cette attaque est aussi bien politique qu'idéologique. "Ils sont gênés parce que les études historiques identifient le #racisme comme une #continuité centrale de l'histoire américaine. Nous avons réduit les Afro-Américains en #esclavage pendant 200 ans. Ensuite, un système légalisé de #ségrégation a été mis en place pendant une soixantaine d'années. Nier que ça s'est produit est stupide et réducteur". »
