Astrophysicist Natalie Gosnell says field is riddled with ‘white supremacy’

It’s a different kind of space race.

A Colorado astrophysicist who says the field is paralyzed by “systemic racism and white supremacy” and “very violent and hyper-masculine” terminology — such as “vampire star” or “cannibal star” — is speaking out about combating these issues in the classroom and beyond.

“As an astrophysicist, I’m a product of institutions that are steeped in systemic racism and white supremacy,” Natalie Gosnell, PhD, an assistant professor of physics at Colorado College, said in an interview published in the school’s newspaper this month.

Gosnell, who holds a doctorate in astronomy from the University of Wisconsin, Madison, and is a recipient of the prestigious Cottrell Scholar Award, argued that “tenets of white supremacy” like “individualism and exceptionalism and perfectionism” shape everything from the direction of physics research to the language used by scientists.

Yep, I see our universities are spewing out real winners today.

Says the affirmative-action supremacist.

Well, all of SPACE is BLACK!.....................

You can send em to college but you still cant fix stupid.

Just another over-”educated” victim of the Dunning-Kruger effect...

Where’s the “Not this s**t, again.” guy?

[dadfly]

well thank your for your great new contribution to science, ms. gosnell.

i’m sure Kepler, Newton, Einstein etc. are all applauding....

Once again, they admit that Whites are, in fact, SUPREME!

“tenets of white supremacy” like “individualism and exceptionalism and perfectionism”

What the hell kind of insane speak is this? So now “individualism, exceptionalism and perfectionism” is racist?

[Arcadian Empire]

Everyone who shares this person’s views should congregate on an island that is completely without any Evil Whites and is completely without anything that was developed by Evil Whites.

They would then, obviously, have a paradise.

...“tenets of white supremacy” like “individualism and exceptionalism and perfectionism” shape everything from the direction of physics research to the language used by scientists.

This is terrible! Science should never allow individualism, exceptionalism, and perfectionism in any form!

“tenets of white supremacy” like “individualism and exceptionalism and perfectionism”

Once again, they admit that they're simply incompetent.

[cgbg]

“doctorate in astronomy from the University of Wisconsin, Madison”

Wisconsin should zero out the budget of that place.

There is nothing left to save.

[stevem]

Whoda thunk it? There is a prerequisite to being an astrophysicist. You first have to be an idiot.

[fieldmarshaldj]

Sounds like a black hole to me.

[NorthMountain]

This silly person should quit putting the "PhD" after her name ... It's a sign of individualism, exceptionalism, and perfectionism. Additionally, it was invented by WHITE MEN. MEN as in male human beings. Not female human beings such as herself. In fact, she should dissociate herself from any University; the very idea of a University was invented by WHITE MEN.

The nasty little hypocrite simply can't understand normal thinking.

[Gene Eric]

Racist, sexist pigs like Gosnell deserve no professional respect.

[Rurudyne]

White supremacy everywhere ... because the idiocy of race grievance pimping of assorted Marxist comprehensions of race and history — that are now parroted by nitwits rendered senseless because of their wokeness — must not mot to be questioned.
