Never again will a non-holiday pass without some sort of public #Resistance exertion. While anti-Trump emotions run high, festivals of malcontent give the aggrieved opportunities to vent in vague opposition to the administration. International Women’s Day, that Soviet feast day sanitized and appropriated by the United Nations, became February’s “Day Without A Woman.” Tax Day will bring on April 15 a hotly anticipated Tax March. And on Earth Day (April 22, if you didn’t know), the March for Science—a protest first sprung from Reddit and spurred on by what was allegedly a disgruntled Environmental Protection Agency employee’s Twitter account—will claim the streets in defense of objective and unemotional research-based policy. Well, sort of.

According to public health researcher Caroline Weinberg, a national co-chair of the March for Science along with University of Texas postdoc Jonathan Berman, “Science, scientists and evidence-based policymaking are under attack.” The young Trump administration’s moratorium on federal researchers publicizing ongoing results, issued January 24, “infuriated” Weinberg, she told an audience of reporters and fellow activists at the National Press Club in Washington, D.C., Monday morning. “Aggressive silencing” of this sort is a normal practice for a presidential transition—but in the age of Twitter, not to mention in the age of Trump, it’s easy to cast as a censorious evil.
