“The scientific method liberates us to pursue truth regardless of who we are. … There is no black mind or white mind. No white male way or knowing or indigenous way of knowing, there is only one truth and we find it through the scientific method.” – Dr. Gad Saad
“That’s white history.” – Said to me by an executive on my college’s paper.
Probably some context is needed. I was in a restaurant telling this lady that when Thomas Sowell did multivariable analysis, black-Americans didn’t get lower pay than white-Americans. What I meant was that when you included IQ, the kind of degree that black-Americans got from college and years worked, the pay gap between white and black Americans pretty much disappeared. I don’t know how well I made my point but I doubt that my presentation really mattered that much. The narrative was what mattered.
Since then I have always been interested in whenever leftists label this or that argument as being black or white. (There are very few Asian arguments for some reason.) It’s been my experience that it’s a rhetorical flourish to avoid countervailing opinions.
I chose this pic because light has represented Truth and reason in western art and the human eye discerns light the same no matter the race or sexual orientation or what have you.
