Mothefukkers in the thread are hating on her and she went harvard, mit, john hopkins, worked at nasa, speaks 3 languages and has a Dr. in Physics.

What the fukk do yall do; besides be keyboard warriors?

At my hbcu we had a couple of men and women that graduated with physics degrees and went on to become successful.

Chanda Prescod-Weinstein has a bachelor's in Physics and Astronomy and Astrophysics from Harvard, a master's in Astronomy and Astrophysics at the University of California, Santa Cruz, and PhD from the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics/the University of Waterloo.

If she is really interested in attracting more black women to physics, she might want to spend more time discussing the steps one should take instead of constantly talking about her gender studies lifestyle.

This thread :mjlol:



Lady gets a degree in theoretical astrophysics and you don't want her because she's too light skinned. You want there to only be 62 black female doctors because the 63rd didn't fit your narrative :francis:



That is so much time and energy studying and writing I couldn't even imagine. I guarantee nobody talking shyt in here is a grad student.

Ok. Im hating. Hating on that physics degree. I want one myself.

Study for it. Physics (from my own experience) isn't a hard degree in the sense that no matter how hard you tried, it will be difficult to understand. Not at all.

Commit yourself to 1.5 - 2 hrs a day for study (both Physics and Math as they go hand-in-hand), you will probably be an A/A- average student, and if it is hard for you to understand, you probably will be a B-A average student.

I can give you a list of books I used from basic to advanced where it concerns physics and math if you want.

As for Chandra, I didn't know there were such low numbers of Black women in physics. That is a damn shame to be honest.

I don't like that she is on the gender-issue thing. That, to me, seems more like a white issue than a Black issue, and it has some lingering anti-Black narratives as well which I really don't like. (I like her work, I am not in that field but I am very interested in what she is currently doing, if I had the time, I'd have taken a course in cosmology).

Chandra does look Black and identifies as such. She is light-skinned is all, which shouldn't matter to anyone Black. We come in all shades. I am dark and do not get why some other dark skinned Blacks always put down light skinned Blacks as if they aren't Black enough. That stupidity must die. In any case, her time at Harvard was atrocious from that reading. Some scientists (even from my own experience) are low-key racist b*stards.
