Radical Science

Behold! Using the power of science to interrogate societal assumptions around race and gender! We talk with theoretical astrophysicist Dr. Chanda Prescod-Weinstein about her article "The Physics of Melanin" and how scientific research is always shaped by our human backgrounds. Then, we talk with biologist and sociologist Shay-Akil McLean (AKA @hood_biologist!) about decolonizing science—and the physical marks that inequality leaves on our bones.
