Diversity Committee

The HFES Diversity Committee is entering its third year following many years existing as a task force. We have built a series of annual meeting content over the past years, with panels introducing the task force and then the committee; last year, we shifted focus to highlight examples of HFE research advancing diversity, inclusion and social justice. We continue to build off of previous years’ sessions – last year concluded with several questions seeking practical, concrete advice and suggestions to advance DISJ through HFE research and within the society. Therefore, this year we present an alternative format session that will function as a group of mini-workshops: two focused on research, one on broadening participation in HFE and one of inclusive excellence within HFE training and education. Session participants will develop “how to” knowledge and leave with a network of likeminded peers, colleagues and potential collaborators.

The Way

In the year 1884 the annual meeting of the Aeronautical Society was held in the rooms of the Society of Arts on the 2nd July. In those days the Society held one meeting only each year, and there were usually three or four papers read. On this occasion, the chairman was Mr. James Glaisher, F.R.S., and in his opening address he referred to the little progress which had been made during the past year, but drew consolation from the fact that there were still many earnest workers actively employed who were working more persistently and more perseveringly than ever. He also stressed the importance of experiment, stating that although the experimenter might not succeed, he could not make any experiment without increasing our knowledge in the way we desire it to be increased.

The Way

The police have come under fire recently as videos showing their use of force are heavily publicized in public and social media. The President's Task Force on 21st-century policing, though useful in reviewing current issues, fails to effectively address the use of force problem by not considering the power of informal police culture and the way in which street police perceive dangers. Exaggerating the dangers of the job, perception and responses to dangers by street police, and a lack of legal and managerial oversight of use of force and shooting and arrest situations are pointed to as major factors in why deadly use of force incidents occur. Recommendations on how to minimize such incidents even further are delineated.

Editor's Note: This lecture by Mark Medoff was delivered at the opening ceremony of the 1987 Annual Meeting of the AAO-HNS in Chicago. The frank expression of deep and personal feelings that relate to the living experience of this sensitive author are not commonly disclosed in a scientific journal, but their penetration into the consciousness of his audience goes beyond the revelations that were so real for him. Our link with the playwright is intimated in his Academy Presidential Citation “for fostering understanding and insight into the problems of the deaf, by those possessing hearing, through his play, Children of a Lesser God.” We are exposed to a variety of degrees of wonderment, shadowed memories, escaped uneasiness, and a desire to break away. And then, at the end, Mr. Medoff defiantly proclaims, “This is the way to the stars.” There is no argument against psychological dynamism, idealism, and triumphant Survival.
