“US’s #RFKJr claims #Arabs ‘don’t produce science’: Why he’s very, very wrong.”
aljazeera.com/news/…
Thanks to the #AlJazeera staff for supplying the famous counterexamples RFKJr never heard of.
That’s one approach. Another is to ask why he would even utter a public opinion on this question. Part of the answer is that he was campaigning against #AbdulElSayed, the #ArabAmerican #Democratic nominee for the #Senate from #Michigan. But that can’t be the whole answer. It just raises the next question. Why disparage the cultural contributions of an entire ethnic group in order to criticize one person’s qualifications for the Senate? This goes to the heart of racist thinking, and to the expectation that one is speaking to a racist audience.
