Feminism and Fossils | Sci Guys Podcast #70

Finding fossils frequently for financial funding was Mary Anning’s sole source of income for most of her life, but she didn’t just find and sell fossils - she was one of the most accomplished palaeontologists of her time. Unfortunately she was also a woman, more specifically a woman from a lower class background, which meant that she did not receive the formal recognition she deserved in her lifetime.

i cannot believe that they didn't explain what happened when jamp went outside, all the people who were only listening must have been so confused lmaoo

[@flynndatta6311]

if it helps you feel a little better about people getting recognition, I'm 14 and I learned about her in primary school, still not as good as it should be tbh since we still didn't learn about Marie curie or many others but I think people are slowly improving :)

[@ded_plant]

I also learned about her and I'm 13. I think it was added to the curriculum

[@sazgarameen5724]

"We know how they built them, they used slaves" ah, so maybe they were whiter than we give them credit for.
