Today motherfucking years old when I learned that Louis #Agassiz, the celebrated founder of glacial #geology, the namesake of the glorious "Glacial Lake *name redacted*" was a scientific racism scumbag who spent decades promoting "#polygeneism", which claimed human races evolved separately in different regions and were even different species.
How has his name remained on some of our most important geologic features?
How was it put there in the first place?
