I'm not sure if anyone has mentioned it yet on this list but I just wanted to flag that Prof. Safiya Noble of UCLA--author of Algorithms of Oppression and someone who has worked closely with and inspired many in the SIGCIS community--was awarded a 2021 MacArthur Fellowship this past week! https://www.macfound.org/fellows/class-of-2021/safiya-noble
