Hello All,

I think this is a very good and overdue initiative, but I suggest to be 
more inclusive an broaden it to Black, Indigenous and People of Colour 
(BIPOC).
It will still be very relevant for Indigenous Peoples' Day.

All the best, Bjoern

There are some obvious ones (Curie for example) but I could use a broader list. While I would welcome all suggestions, in particular I was hoping to make a list of indigenous isotope geochemists for Indigenous People’s day on Monday.
