Fwd: #ShutDownLogic June 10

From: Kissel, Teresa K.
Hello all,
On June 10th, following the lead of #ShutDownSTEM and #ShutDownAcademia, the Logic Supergroup, which comprises logic groups across the world and hosts virtual talks by speakers that these groups would have had in their physical seminars/colloquia, engaged in a Day of Inclusive Logic in support of Black Lives Matter and the protests currently underway. To that end, logicians met online for the 24 consecutive hours between 0:00 and 24:00 GMT to discuss ways we might make logic more inclusive and thereby take a small step in efforts to mitigate racism.
