Geology is racist as it is 'linked to white supremacy' claims Queen Mary University of London professor
UK Daily Mail ^ | 11/16/2024 | RORY FLEMING

A geography professor at a leading British university has described the study of rocks and the natural world as racist and linked the academic field to 'white supremacy'.

Kathryn Yusoff, who lectures at the prestigious Queen Mary University of London, said that the geology as a subject was 'riven by systematic racism' and influenced heavily by colonialism.

The study of prehistoric life through fossils was also branded as an enabler for racism, with the professor referring to the field of palaeontology as 'pale-ontology'.

Apparently the university is now more than 200 years old. Strange, I’ve never heard of it. Must survive as a school for b//////.

I’m coming to the conclusion that studying in general is racist.

Other than the fields that end in -studies of course!

I just noticed - she's not even a geologist (one of the hard topics) but a professor of geography. That's quite a difference, so where does she get to mouth off about geology? Bitter because she couldn't hack it there?

A fact of life: Racists see racism in everything ... As with this guy, racists are obsessed with race.

Higher Ed all over the Anglosphere is full of these morons.

Institutions “that matter” can’t be run by these weirdos or your Civilization is on a pathway to extinction.

Add to the list: “Coon Trap Trail” in Jack London State Park, Sonoma County, California. A pack of lunatics decided that it was racist, and might offend someone. Not that is was actually racist and actually did offend someone, but that it might. Flippin’ yayhoos, desperate to virtue signal. Reminded me of the guy who had to quit his job for using the term ‘niggardly’. Bending over backwards for the illiterate among us is not a good strategy...
