"Science as a whole" is racist and should be scrapped entirely because it's "a product of western modernity," so says a South African college student attending the University of Cape Town. From TimesLive.co.za: A so-called “fallist” has asked students at the University of Cape Town's science faculty to consider scrapping science as a whole if it is ever to be decolonised.Checkmate, white devils. The meeting then breaks into laughter at her question as someone in the audience yells: “It's not true!” CNN said "Math is Racist" last month. “So western modernity is the problem that decolonisation directly deals with. It’s to say that we are going to decolonise by having knowledge that is produced by us‚ that speaks to us and that is able to accommodate knowledge from our perspective.Sounds great, go for it. Show us colonizers up by building that tablet you started scrolling through at the end of your screed from scratch -- and do it using only witchcraft and your unique "perspective."
