Some incredible poetic #naturalism widsom from Dr. #RobinWallKimmerer:
"There are lots of truths... there are multiple ways of knowing, and we could benefit by engaging more of them.... Sometimes what we call conventional Western #science is in fact scientism. Scientism being this notion that Western science is the only way to truth. Itβs a powerful way to truth, but there are other ways, too."

@duncan_lithgow The geographical origins of many institutions meant that science came pre-loaded with many fallacious European cultural assumptions (like social darwinism), still in the process of being pruned. Science from other cultural backgrounds has often been rejected by default where it clashes with these. There will be some boundary confusion in the process of decolonizing science. But it's essential to sustaining scientific progress nonetheless.
