The tweets below have come to my attention, and I'd like to respond. It is of course about me, and Angela and I have been congenially discussing this offline. 1/n

Due credit is incredibly important to me, and I always aim to both give it, and to raise the profile of scientists and others, especially from under-represented groups, notably women and people of colour. 2/n
I hope that this is evident in my work. But I clearly could do more, and I will endeavour to do so. 3/n
Subhadra Das @littlegaudy is the researcher in question; I have worked with and around her for a while now. I didn’t use her work directly in #HowToArgueWithARacist, but did in a previous book, A Brief History, and indeed directly credited her.
@littlegaudy Subhadra does important work in curating the Galton Collection at UCL: I urge you to follow her

Her voice, along and others, will be more and more important in coming months 5/n
In general, @AngelaDSaini is an important voice in these necessary conversations, and a talented writer. I hope we continue to work collegially, in exposing the pernicious rise of pseudoscientific racism. Read her books. 6/n
I’m taking this all on board, all part of the curve, but I hope to adhere to the words of my great hero, not Darwin, but Springsteen:

‘Nobody wins unless everybody wins.’

7/7
