[Geoldept] New documentary + chat: Picture a Scientist #VirtualCinema Premiere

[Allison Pfeiffer]

Hello geofolk,

In case you’re looking for something to watch in these first days of summer, consider this new documentary.

“Picture a Scientist” is a new film about harassment and discrimination in STEM, and the path forward. It features Jane Willenbring, a geomorphologist at UCSD/Stanford. You can watch it on-demand while benefiting the local Bellingham Pickford Film Center via this link: https://vimeo.com/ondemand/paspickford . It’s $6.99 for a 48-hour rental.

I’m going to watch it this week. If you want to do the same, and discuss it over a cup of tea with me this Friday afternoon at 3 pm, send me an email and I’ll organize a zoom chat.

Take care,

Allison
