Over the past decade, the particle physics community has devised programs to support DEIA along multiple axes, and the way we think about measuring and implementing these initiatives has evolved. Through #VanguardSTEM, we assert, without apology, the right of Black, Indigenous, women of color to self-advocate by fully representing ourselves, our STEM identities and interests, without assimilation.ĭiversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Accessibility (DEIA) are not only called for to ensure morality and justice in our society, they also support ongoing and future excellence in particle physics. We propose an intersectional scientific methodology to address the influence of embodied observation, embedded context and collective impact on scientific inquiry. As Black women in STEM, we consider how our situated knowledges and scientific expertise inform our process. In describing how #VanguardSTEM descended from counterspaces, we draw on speculative fiction to define a #VanguardSTEM hyperspace as a fluid “place-time” that is born digital and enabled by social media, but materializes in the physical world for specific purposes.
#VanguardSTEM is rooted firmly in Queer, Black feminisms which delineate the experiences and critiques of Black women matter and that these insights can foster a restorative and regenerative construction of the cultures in which we exist. We publish original and curated content, using cultural production to include a multiplicity of identities as worthy of recognition and thus redefine STEM identity and belonging. "It'll be rented pretty soon, I hope.#VanguardSTEM is an online community and platform that centers women, girls, and non-binary people of color in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) fields. The Crayton Boulevard building has warehouse space of about 20,000 square feet and office space of about 8,000 square feet, Ghattas said. It expanded from there, and in 2012, OSI of Hagerstown rebranded and opened a location in Baltimore creating Hyperspace, according to the website. Ghattas said Hyperspace can trace its roots to 1972, when he acquired a bookbinding business. "I sold it to a good company, and they'll take care of the customers." "After 46 years in the office furniture business, I decided I wanted to retire (from retail)," Asad Ghattas said Monday. also houses the headquarters of Ghattas Enterprises Inc., a real estate holding company. "The opportunity for us also means our clients can benefit from working with an industry leader able to provide fully integrated architectural, furniture, technology and logistical solutions," she said in a news release. Treva Ghattas, principal of Hyperspace, said "we are especially excited to join an organization that also has a long, proud history."
