Woke Americans now saying solar eclipses are “racist” against Black Americans 

In a recent report, the solar eclipse has become a topic of contention among Black Americans in Texas. While some view it as a celestial event, others allege racial undertones. Conservatives argue that the eclipse has been politicized by woke activists, labeling it as racist. 

Furthermore, the debate has escalated online, with some sarcastically suggesting that even innocuous items like an egg and ham sandwich could soon be deemed racist. The controversy highlights ongoing tensions and ideological divides, raising questions about the intersection of astronomy and social discourse.

According to Capital B News, as a once-in-a-generation total solar eclipse approaches Texas, the Lone Star state anticipates an influx of 4 million tourists, promising a significant economic boost. 

However, preparations have disrupted life for many Black residents in metro areas like Austin, Dallas, and Houston, where emergency declarations are in effect. Concerns about traffic jams, price gouging, and power outages loom large, amplifying fears stemming from past natural disasters. 

Despite the excitement among some, disparities persist, with only 3% of astrophysics and astronomy professionals being Black.

This is a bunch of racist crap! Leave it to the Left to use an Eclipse to spout a racist lie and, once again, label my entire race as nothing but “victims”.

STEM fields are NOT closed to Blacks. Blacks achieved in the STEM fields even during much harder racial times. Adversity…
