Was French #abolitionism secular, unlike its well-known (and self-proclaimed unique) British counterpart? @papaerc.bsky.social (Damien Tricoire) & Jeremy Popkin (Un. of Kentucky) connect the French #Enlightenment to a longer history of Catholic-informed #Atlantic #antislavery 1/3

These cuts will have effects that reverberate for years. The chaos itself disrupts the long-term planning needed for good science. And that’s different from the private sector.
