A recent study purports to prove that geology can contribute to the “healing process” from racism.
University of San Diego professors Diane Marie Keeling and Bethany O’Shea published a study titled “Conceptualizing Black Humanity Through Geopoetic Intimacy and Resistance: Memory Making-with Geologic Materials” on Jan. 27.
“Materials of geologic composition like soil, and those made from earth materials, such as steel and bricks, are employed to trope the bodies of lynching victims and weather racist geologic formations of subjecthood,” the study abstract reads. “The holding and eroding of violent memories crafts an intimate and resistant geopoetics of Black humanity.” more
Is this a USAID thing?
Don’t take rocks for granite.
Inspiring. The Geologic Scientists just moved the second hand of the Rock Clock backward by half a minute. We’re going to rock around the clock until just before midnight.
blow it out of your ass, useless twats
What a load of shit….
They are almost there, a rock upside the head with the proper velocity and force will cure racism.
Stoned again…
Apparently the University of San Diego is proficient in Junk Scientists.
I’ve got a gneiss tune for them:
♪♫ We Shale Overcome…Some…Day
I’ve long suspected that there’s bullshit generator site on the interweb.
How else to explain where these people come up with this shit?
Diana Marie Keeling and Bethany O’Shea, schist for brains?
Rockheads…
I’m thinking these people were stoned when they came up with this crap.
What a pile of shit. I’m embarrassed my daughter went there. USD used to stand for University of Spoiled Daughters. Now it’s Unbelievably Stupid Dissertation.
Can I get loads of money for making up dumb shit, too?
They must have rocks in their heads to come up with this idiotic theory about ways to end racism. Didn’t God say that he would make rocks and stones cry out when nothing else would proclaim the glory of God.
Start selling “Pet Rocks” once again.
We could have “special” rocks for black folk.
White folk overwhelmingly prefer their geologic composition to be Concentrated lead ore, after high-temperature step of smelting to create lead bullion. The Bullion is refined, sold and eventually poured into various molds of calibers that White Folk prefer as their rocks.
I prefer .45 acp as my chosen geological composition, not the go all DEI about it, I also enjoy all calibers.
And I never went to USD !
Southern Illinois University, a practical Education in the 1970s for me.
Rhetorician Extraordinaire means she talks out of her ass
One of the countless reasons why college is financially out of reach.
Probably funded by the 2 BILLION biden embezzled and given to stacy abrams.
This was a “study”? Wow. That’s what they’re calling it these days, I guess.
DEI geology
Rocks. Stones.
We need a Biblical solution to this nonsense.
Stone them!*
*Just kidding! Don’t report me! 🤣
They can gain comfort by them burying their heads in the sand. We can gain comfort by boulders on top of their heads.
I’ve been thinking about this because when I saw this my thoughts were that how the hell can rocks possibly solve racism?
Then it hit me!
If a school “publishes” one such study, then yank all federal funding for a year. Two: two years. Three: 4 years, Four: 8 years. and so on.
Well, somebody just got a brand new thesaurus!
i assume they could not find anything of scientific merit to produce so they produced what is in essence a testament to their stupidity and lack of qualifications for the job they have.
Possessing some significant education in the field of Geology, all I can add is… WTF?!?
