Abdulrazak Gurnah and Maria Ressa
Neither of whom won science or economics prizes, which is what is being discussed in the article.
- nix23 5y agoDo we just forget Syukuro Manabe (physics)? Or has he just not the right hue to count as diverse? Or Ardem Patapoutian (also physics) not black enough for being a north African? With your logic there is no Asian who won the Literature price...whats even the point here?
- dagw 5y agoI think you're replying to the wrong person. My argument is that holding up the fact that a black person and a woman won the 'not-science' prizes cannot be used as proof of diversity among the science prizes.
- nix23 5y agoAnd my argument is that a Japanese and an African won the "science" prices, are they not diverse enough because of skin-color?
- dagw 5y agoAre they not diverse enough because of skin-color? Again, that was the argument the person I was replying to was making, not in any way the argument I was making.
