#CivicScience offers a framework for making science more reflective of and accountable to society, bridging community, science, and policy to shape how knowledge is produced, shared, and used. Learn more about the Dana Foundation's efforts to support civic science.

I admire Watson’s science. I truly do.
But if he could map DNA and still miss that racism isn’t genetic, then the flaw wasn’t in the code — it was in the interpretation.
Let’s celebrate discovery, not prejudice dressed up as data. #Science #CivicScience
