    Deli workers and butchers showed "significant reductions in disgust, empathy, and meat-animal association within the first year or two of meat handling." A great study by Jared Piazza, and Alexandra Oakley I always wanted to run myself!

    Discrimination on the basis of nationality is one form many of us accept without much second thought. But where someone happens to be born can hugely change where they’re able to travel and what visas they’re (un)likely to get and consequently the course of their lives.

    Important post on “passport privilege”. Discrimination based on nationality is often invisible to those of us who are privileged thanks to an accident of birth. We need to consider our privilege, and the barriers faced by many of our colleagues and students.
