Decolonize ALL The Science is a HASTS (History, Anthropology, and Science, Technology, and Society) website which aims to provide a space for anti-colonial reflections on scientific knowledge production and science communication. Here anything from the topics of bioethics, medical ethics, health inequities, public health, genetics/genomics, etc. are discussed by public scholar Dr. Shay-Akil McLean, Ph.D.. Dr. McLean is a writer, educator, independent research scientist, public scholar and thought leader studying the relationships between human biology, racism, and health inequities. Dr. McLean is a trained eco-evolutionary biologist (Ph.D.), biological anthropologist (BA, MA – evolutionary biology & human osteology), and sociologist (BA, MA – HASTS/STS, Comparative Historical Sociology, Sociology of Race/ism, Urban Sociology) studying Darwinian evolutionary biology, theoretical population genetics, Du Boisian sociology, health demography, and philosophies of biology and science.
