Of course what matters here is viewing and rewriting everything through the lens of race
I'm just so tired of it.
- wisty 4y agoThere's two books reviewed. The second one in the review (Smith) is more looking at the science-adjacent fields that had an influence (like paper) rather than arguing that Newton relied on colonisation because he used a little data from ship captains.

And twice in sentence "The classical story is not quite one of white supremacy—after all, if science is to be a universal enterprise, it cannot only be carried out by white people—but it is emphatically a story of European exceptionalism and the supremacy of European thought and values, which it invokes to explain the material prosperity and cultural superiority of Europeans."

So, you mean, you didn't read the article, went to cherry-pick some part of the article, and you're not happy because it is « viewing and rewriting everything through the lens of race ? Way to go.
