Scientists and Poets #Resist is a collection of creative
nonfiction, personal narrative, and poetry. This volume is a
conversation between poets and scientists and a dialogue between
art and science. The authors are poets, scientists, and
poet-scientists who use the seven words-"vulnerable,"
"entitlement," "diversity," "transgender," "fetus,"
"evidence-based" and "science-based"-banned by the Trump
administration in official Health and Human Service documents in
December 2017 in their contributions. The contributors use the
seven words to discuss their work, reactions to their work, and the
creative environment in which they work. The resulting collection
is an act of resistance, a political commentary, a conversation
between scientists and poets, and a dialogue of collective voices
using banned words as a rallying cry-Scientists and Poets #Resist-a
warning that censorship is an issue connecting us all, an issue
requiring a collective aesthetic response. This book can be read
for pleasure, is a great choice for book clubs, and can be used as
a springboard for reflection and discussion in a range of courses
in the social sciences, education, and creative writing.
