Black lives matter. The ongoing problem of police brutality and the resulting deaths of George Floyd (1), Breonna Taylor (2), and many other Black people in the United States (3) has rightly shaken the country. Acts of racism should cause us to question the level to which we have personally participated in the systems of racial inequity that facilitate such acts. We all have an obligation to identify the ways that systemic racism functions in our society and in science. As scientists, we prefer to believe that we are driven by data and are immune to such detrimental behaviors. Yet, if we are honest, we know that this is not always true.

ASM 期刊委员会重视黑人微生物学家的贡献。

黑人的命也是命。持续存在的警察暴力问题以及由此造成的乔治·弗洛伊德 (1)、布伦娜·泰勒 (2) 和美国许多其他黑人 (3) 的死亡理所当然地震动了这个国家。种族主义行为应该让我们质疑我们个人参与助长此类行为的种族不平等制度的程度。我们都有义务找出系统性种族主义在我们的社会和科学中发挥作用的方式。作为科学家，我们更愿意相信我们是由数据驱动的，并且不会受到这种有害行为的影响。然而，如果我们诚实的话，我们就会知道事实并非总是如此。
