The #MeToo movement heightened awareness of sexism in science. More recently, nationwide protests against police brutality and other expressions of systemic anti-Black racism triggered new attention to racism in science. But without an intersectional approach, the realities for Black women can be overlooked. Using my own experience as a Black female PhD student, I argue that institutional attitudes and policies can reinforce historical inequities, rather than supporting Black women who face discrimination, and I challenge scientific leaders to create equitable environments for Black women scientists.

#MeToo 运动提高了科学界对性别歧视的认识。最近，全国范围内反对警察暴行和其他系统性反黑人种族主义表达的抗议活动引发了对科学中种族主义的新关注。但如果没有交叉方法，黑人女性的现实可能会被忽视。利用我自己作为黑人女博士生的经验，我认为制度态度和政策会加剧历史上的不平等，而不是支持面临歧视的黑人女性，我挑战科学领袖为黑人女科学家创造公平的环境。
