Profs claim scientific objectivity reinforces 'whiteness'
Campus Reform ^ | March 19, 2018 | Nikita Vladimirov

Posted on 03/20/2018 6:27:05 AM PDT by C19fan

A newly published academic journal article argues that science educators must do more to combat “whiteness” and “White ideology” in the classroom.

In their research essay titled “Towards a truer multicultural science education: how whiteness impacts science education,” University of Colorado at Denver scholars Cheryl E. Matias and Paul T. Le seek to “have the field consider the theoretical frames of whiteness and how it might influence how we engage in science education such that our hope for diversity never fully materializes.”

Cheryl Matias’ degree (Ph.D. from UCLA) is in teacher education. She calls herself a person of color (Pinay).

“Whiteness” = Western Culture and individual freedoms.

Leftist thugs crave violent oppression Western Culture.

People who write this kind of blather rarely have any competence in a scientific discipline. It is reminiscent of the “Social Text” hoax by physicist Alan Sokal in the 1990s, in which a trendy journal published an article liberally salted with nonsense.

It’s not skin color or race. It’s a person’s cultural background. Many blacks still live here in America in a culture that has 3rd world aspects.

So please explain all the Black scientist and current scientists of color. Please explain why Math and science have no “racial problems from India through Chine, across Asia and into Africa and Europe? The problem isn’t race, the problem is people getting off their duffs to learn. Yes I am guilty, but the problem is me not science. I read an article about African Americans complaining about black African students being counted as black. Can’t make this stuff up.

So how do we apply this silliness to a medical degree. Is the brain located in a different place for these two black rocket scientist scholars. Perhaps the colon

Little different than Hitler banning “Jewish” science as not being Arayan and burning books.

It is not whiteness that produces “supremacy”. It is Western Civilization under Rome, Greece and the Judeo/Christian God that does so.

our science is out of touch with the experiences of our students of Color

Our "students of Color" need to get themselves some more worthwhile experiences.
