Astrophysics 'steeped in systemic racism and White supremacy,' says Colorado College science professor
2023-01-17
I want to address the violence of Black Hos!
[FoxNews] The professor complains how science is discussed in a 'very violent and hyper-masculine' way'.
My high school’s honours physics teacher enthusiastically illustrated every single blessed problem the first quarter using MiGs shooting off missiles. I had to drop down to the regular physics class, where I was bored stiff by the pace, but at least understood what the teacher was trying to explain. I don’t think it was a male-female problem, though, just that he was a tad eccentric. The other girls in the class were fine.
A Colorado professor believes astrophysics is steeped in systemic racism and White supremacy.

Natalie Gosnell, a professor of physics at Colorado College, wants to take an unorthodox approach to teach physics by interpreting it through the lens of race.

"Both artists and scientists are just observing things about the world, making interpretations about those observations, and then sharing their interpretation," Gosnell told Colorado College News.
Yes, but one is doing art, and the other is doing science. They are very different ways of analyzing the universe. And while they can have things to teach each other, that teaching takes place at the end of the process, not in the middle. The lady is an idiot... and probably not a good scientist.

#12  My observations of the fields do not match hers. Which is a polite way of saying she's lying. The quote in (3) may be found here; this is how she wants to be known.

#11  deGrasse Tyson is a pop culture huckster. I would not ask his opinion of why a magnet has two poles.

If you want to see him say some stupid, totally wrong stuff, watch any of the YouTube videos of his appearances on Joe Rogan's show.

#9  I always find it funny when folks claim exceptionalism = White Supremacy. Can they be any more insulting towards non-whites?

So has anyone asked Neil deGrasse Tyson for his take? He's probably the best known astrophysics guy out there.

#7  My time at the Zoo offered many opportunities for hardship. One was dealing with the freaks at CC. My first encounter with them, I couldn’t help but notice the difference. In our uniformity we were individuals of every background working for a common goal. In their “individuality” they were all the same. White dreds and TYE die shirts with Birkenstock sandals.

#3  Natalie Gosnell, a liberal, attention seeking White Female Professor.

Is also quoted as saying "We aim to cross typical disciplinary boundaries to create art-science pieces that re-inscribe outer space as feminist space.".

So she is a NOW'ist ???
