About This Book

A theoretical physicist explores the wonders of particle physics and cosmology through the lens of social justice. The narrative weaves together complex scientific concepts like dark matter and spacetime with a critique of the systemic racism and sexism inherent in the scientific community. It presents a vision for a liberatory practice of science that recognizes the human right to understand the universe.
