I never claimed it was a physics journal. I'm not sure what your point is.
Did you miss the underlined part where the authors of an observational study on whiteness in introductory physics shared their goal of the study?
Her web page sounds very reasonable. https://spu.edu/academics/college-of-arts-sciences/physics/faculty-staff/robertson-amy as far as investigating teaching strategy.
Yet your quoted passage (and yes, I did read the article--why do you assume my reaction means inattention?) is that of the typical self-loathing white liberal. "Critical Whiteness Theory" is almost trolling, it is so obviously the real purpose of CRT. CRT didn't get entrenched by being honest about its aims.
Again, I'm not sure what your point is and your response still hasn't explained anything except for the fact you believe the author and her insane ramblings seem very reasonable.
Do you believe this sounds very reasonable? If you do, quit wasting my time.
The underrepresentation of women and people of color in physics has been attributed to a wide variety of factors ranging from society-wide conditions such as income inequality and sparse role models, to daily interpersonal interactions that disadvantage or discourage women and people of color from pursuing physics. These factors may be seen as manifestations of White and/or male privilege: social, economic, educational, or political advantages that are made available to Whites and males on the basis of their social identity. White male privilege pervades the discipline of physics as well as the classrooms in which physics is taught and learned. For example, physics is portrayed in textbooks as the product of individual great men, independent of all social or political contexts, rather than as being shaped by the culture of the European Enlightenment (among other cultures) or the conditions during specific international conflicts.
