Thank you for the opportunity RealScientists. Go follow Black in Marine Science We are here to dismantle the exclusionary practices that have prevented Black people from marine science careers and create space for Black marine scientist, current and future. @seagaynus

400 years of slavery is a portion of our story. We are innovators, activists, educators & scientists! We build communities, we are resilient, we make history, we are joyous & shift narratives. WE ARE #BlackInMarineScience Let's celebrate us. #BlackInMarineScience Week #ForUsFriday

'Set audacious goals, make yourself your number one priority, and take up space. You are an integral part of our ecosystem- not an afterthought or a check in a box- you don't just belong, you are necessary. Adjust your actions accordingly.' Chris Mantegna. Master's student. 1/2

'Sometimes it stinks being the only black person in your group or outfit, but the awkward messiness that comes with being a fresh or unfamiliar voice can help make things easier for the people who can look up and see themselves at the same table one day.' Mark Losavio. 1/2

It is critical that we encourage, promote and share the work that we all do, but most importantly it is imperative that we always reach back to mentor the generations that come after us to ensure they have the tools and the confidence to walk through the doors 1/2

#WhatisMarineScience For me it's using eDNA and genetic tools to identify life we can't see to better understand their roles in the ocean. The same way a criminal may leave DNA behind, so does marine life. I'm CSI for the ocean😉🌊🐟🐙

We can measure biodiversity using transects! We use % coverage to gauge species abundance. The intertidal will gladly reward you with a tide pool or two for your trouble. How many organisms do you see? 🌱 #WhatisMarineScience #BlackInMarineScience
