As the yts talk to Indigenous Peoples to gather stories of tsunamis and earthquakes, the author notes how their accounts have been disregarded as “out there myths”. I think the author tries to humanize the whites who are now listening, but continues to objectify the different Indigenous people and groups. not once do they offer any reciprocity to the folks who are advancing western science! Smh yts be whiting.

Ch.26 is highly inappropriate. Just another audacious moment of white authors making up scenes of “Indians”, projecting their cultural (mis)interpretations into a story of their death. This asymmetry in which white authors write about of nonwhite folks, especially Indigenous Peoples, but don’t write about white families the same way is a gross form of objectification & consumptive behavior.

Things I like: learning about geology & Oregon’s geologic history
Would do without:
- superfluous descriptions of pale male scientists & overly drawn out “scenes” of their offices/insignificant scenes
- casual ableism
- dropping that Japanese scientists had knowledge before white scientists, & generally excluding nonwhite scientists
- casual militarism & acting as if oil industry is neutral field of geology
