I spent the past couple days organizing and annotating my bookmark file, and much of today on the "JEDI" bookmarks, and wanted to re-up a few of particular note.
The subheadings in this part of the file are "personal stories", "readings", "orgs", "Cornell", "corporate facing", "math", "CS", "General STEM", "General academia", and "misc".
Start with "stories," let me mention @NeilLewisJr ; the bookmark there is "What I've Learned About Being a Black Scientist", but I've got several of his papers bookmarked (throughout): https://www.sciencemag.org/careers/2020/06/what-ive-learned-about-being-black-scientist
What I've learned about being a Black scientist

“Scientists who look like me often have to wrestle with not just our research questions, but also with being seen—due to the color of our skin—as a problem,” our columnist writes

The best thing (for me, as a professor) in the reading list section is the equity reading list posted by @NeedhiBhalla : https://www.bhallalab.com/equity-reading-list
Equity Reading List — Bhalla Lab

Much of the rest of the reading list section is there because I'm an unapologetic bookworm. But I think it is correct that the last bookmark in the section is this one. https://www.theatlantic.com/culture/archive/2020/07/your-anti-racism-books-are-means-not-end/614281/
The False Promise of Anti-racism Books

Texts that seek to raise the collective American consciousness are rendered futile without concrete systemic changes.

In the Cornell bookmarks, let me mention the grad school's "practical steps" list (which is pretty good advice for a new DGS trying to figure things out, as I've been this semester):
https://gradschool.cornell.edu/diversity-inclusion/faculty-resources/practical-steps/
In the "corporate facing" category, I'll highlight a thread by @math_rachel (which I found through response to the revelations by @timnitGebru and @RealAbril about Google screwing this up, I believe):
https://twitter.com/math_rachel/status/1341793554755010560
In the math category, two fantastic resources stand out, both from @MarissaKawehi and @j_lanier : the paraDIGMS workshop earlier this semester (plenaries posted), and the write-up on the SUBgroups program.

For CS, let me highlight @mapq in "What can CS departments do?" and @databoydg in "Combating Anti-Blackness in the AI Community" as two very useful reads:

What Can CS Departments Do?

What can computer science departments do combat racism and increase diversity?

For the general STEM category, I'll mention "Responses to 10 common criticisms of anti-racism actions in STEM" (forget where exactly I learned about this, but I have the link): https://drive.google.com/file/d/1AoFbaCEfP5qgBMjKnpsnzx5idYPdbq6x/view
Anti-Racism in STEM Final.pdf

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1AoFbaCEfP5qgBMjKnpsnzx5idYPdbq6x/view
Under the general academia list, two stand out: "Advice for more inclusive teaching" and "10 small steps for dept chairs to foster inclusion."
https://www.chronicle.com/article/how-to-make-your-teaching-more-inclusive/ https://www.insidehighered.com/advice/2020/06/05/advice-department-chairs-how-foster-inclusion-among-faculty-opinion

In times of crisis, it becomes more important than ever, as stress can cause well-intentioned leaders to resort to bias and exclusion, write Ethel L. Mickey, Ember Skye Kanelee and Joya Misra.

As for "misc," let's go with "Best of Code Switch, in 8 Episodes": https://www.npr.org/sections/codeswitch/2020/03/26/820991385/the-very-best-of-code-switch-in-8-episodes

And now, I expect I'll go back to only bunny picture tweets until I've at least finished grading (and maybe plowed through some other things).
