January | 2015 | #BLACKandSTEM
https://blackandstem.wordpress.com/2015/01
Monthly Archives: January 2015. With nearly a year under our belt as a community, #BLACKandSTEM has grown far beyond what I could have ever expected. On a snowy day in February, I fired off a tweet asking people who identified themselves as Black and STEM to simply share what they do. Now, relationships have been formed, issues have been elevated, and the community has grown. And there is more work to be done! Be sure to include the #BLACKandSTEM hashtag in your tweets! How do #BLACKandSTEM chats work?

https://blackandstem.wordpress.com/2014/11
Monthly Archives: November 2014. Last week, the women shared our take on being #BLACKandSTEM and Woman. And in #BLACKandSTEM and Woman news, Crazy @AuntLindsey was successful in raising funds. For her show, The Fab Lab, surpassing her goal! Today’s chat is about the men. I have been appalled at some of the stories I have heard and things I have witnessed happen to Black men. But today’s chat isn’t one in which MY voice needs to be heard. What are your experiences being a #BLACKandSTEM man?

You walk, talk, dress, speak, or carry yourself a certain way. You turn vernacular off and on. You stay in constant awareness of your tone. Even the way you laugh might be a little different depending on where you are. We have talked about adjusting and code-switching. 8220;Respectability politics” is a phrase whose definition encompasses how people determine who is or is not worthy of respect.

Oxforddictionaries.com defines code-switching as “ The practice of alternating between two or more languages or varieties of language in conversation”. For many of us who are #BLACKandSTEM, code-switching involves, not just linguistics, but every category of adjustments that we make in order to operate in a certain environment.

My goodness, in one week, #BLACKandSTEM will be one year old! But we still have a chat to do this week. It’s been so long since we talked about some aspect of popular culture. And, as much as I tried to resist, I couldn’t. For today’s #BLACKandSTEM question: What is your take on Empire? Where do you turn for representation of #BLACKandSTEM on television? Why couldn’t one of the sons have strayed away from the music business, attended A&T, and become a mechanical engineer? Be sure to use the hashtag!
