If you are a "community intervention" nigger 'scientist,' than you are much lees likely to receive NIH funding than White Scientists who are studying actual Science. And this is racisms.
Black Scientists Held Back by Perceptions of Their Priorities
New research suggests “hard/lab science” is valued over “patient-focused science” in awarding research grants.
"Hard/Lab Science" a.k.a. actual Science.

Eight years ago, a study published in Science found that black researchers were 10 percentage points less likely than white ones to receive funding from the National Institutes of Health, even after controlling for factors like educational background, previous research awards and publication record.
That study, which the N.I.H. itself commissioned, prompted the agency to put $500 million toward a 10-year initiative to improve the situation, for example by increased mentoring of minority researchers and efforts to address possible bias in peer review.
But new research suggests racial disparity in grant funding persists, and offers a fresh theory about a source of some of it: research topic choice….
The new study, commissioned by the N.I.H. and published recently in Science Advances, examined data from nearly 160,000 applications in the years 2011 to 2015. It showed that clinical research on community-level health interventions has a harder time getting N.I.H. support than research focused on cellular science, and that black scientists are more likely to be seeking to do the former.
