A group of scholars at Concordia University in Montreal have dedicated themselves to “Decolonizing Light.”
The effort is not about banning flashlights, but rather advancing other ways of knowing about light, science and physics.
The group’s tagline is “Tracing and countering colonialism in contemporary physics.”
The effort, funded by the Canadian government, seeks both to explore “ways and approaches to decolonize science, such as revitalizing and restoring Indigenous knowledges” and to develop “a culture of critical reflection and investigation of the relation of science and colonialism,” according to the project’s website.
Led by Tanja Tajmel, a special equity, diversity and inclusion advisor to Concordia’s dean, core members of the group also include physicist Ingo Salzmann and Associate Professor of First Peoples Studies Louellyn White.

Truth ... but headline was about light, so I went for it.
And it's even worse ... Not only did they not work out "V=IR", they didn't even work out a way of expressing ideas that allows you to say "V=IR".
The Indians (dot type) invented that. The Arabs stole it from them, then traded it to White Europeans. White Europeans saw what you can really do with mathematics, and it was off to the races. Here we are ... with some over-educated, under-intelligent White European (ironically) bimbo trying to destroy the work of her ancestors. Ungrateful bitch ...
going back to candles?
Wakanda Forever!
I have a certain respect for the Sentinelese. They know something about border security. We should learn from them.
C’mon man! per Calypso Louie, white devils stole all of this from the motherland
“such as revitalizing and restoring Indigenous knowledges”
How long till they demand that human sacrifice be allowed?
Da white debbils done bin created in lab by mad scientist Yakub. Ooogaboogaboooga!
Now THAT’S science!
I would like for there to be a country of “far right” white people only.
No dreams of globalist domination, just stay away or we’ll destroy you all.
It’s obvious we can’t “just get along” per Rodney King.
Physics is rayciiiisssstttt…
Ungawa Bwana!
Oblivion has merged with Nirn.
“How long till they demand that human sacrifice be allowed?”
Well, we are halfway there with gender identification and associated mutilations.
I guess that Shamans and human sacrifices will be part of physics education.
“In this lab experiment we shall sacrifice three virgins to appease the Sun God...”
“Show me the “indigenous culture” that produced anything nearly as useful as these statements:”
Calculus is clearly racist and essentially is exactly like the magic substance vibranium in black panther that is jealously guarded to keep away from everybody else
“Such is so, M’m Sab”.
The Ukraine comes close...
They seem to have some issues.
