The people involved with that article never played a sport in their lives. But now they feel the need to explain sports to the world. 😂


The author is a “cultural anthropologist” 🥳

It is racist to call it a football field, btw.

Quote
The University of Southern California’s school of social work will no longer use the word “field” in its curriculum, citing its racist “connotation.”

USC’s Suzanne Dworak-Peck School of Social Work said the change was critical to support anti-racist social work and inclusivity.

The department specifically decided to remove the word “field” from its curriculum and replace it with “practicum,” according to the letter, which was dated Jan. 9 and shared to Twitter.

“This change supports anti-racist social work practice by replacing language that would be considered anti-Black or anti-immigrant in favor of inclusive language,” the letter said.

The letter continued: “Language can be powerful, and phrases such as ‘going into the field’ or ‘field work’ maybe have connotations for descendants of slavery and immigrant workers that are not benign.”

Indeed. Everything is racist. Except for black people.  Unless they're conservative.  In that case they're racist too.
