Oh right, it actually involves three transformations that combine to form an invariant metric.Not exactly, the metric is a certain function on the spacetime (it assigns distances between points). We can certainly use the metric to transform between different observers, but that's not what it is.

“If” Black Women Were White Women

argument that “Whatever a ‘superior’ group has will be used to justify
its superiority, and whatever an ‘inferior’ group has will be used to
justify its plight.”
