You mean ignorant people like stuff that confirms what they want to believe? Yeah. Dunno, in person I can easily change even a deeply entrenched Conservative mind because they are hard wired to fear and respect me due to my physical presence and deep voice etc. I was a bit racist (had a theory of generic superiority), a normal mind won't be so very different to the society in which it lives but I was not very bigoted not having had too many bad experiences with blacks and such. An unsuccessful kidnapping attempt when my dad brought me to the Pakistan/Afgan border on a project as a teen still makes me wary of certain types is all. I went to Africa, worked in several countries, was a student of then commanded many wildlife rangers and troops, dated a few black women and changed my mind. It took several years mind you. But I can't change your mind here for similar reasons I can't influence other conservatives, they need to fear me for that tricky to reach with a paper clip learn button to get pressed. Movie time then.
Murray is Harvard grade and a scholar at the American Enterprise Institute. The mud throwers like SPLC are many steps down in credibility.
The contents of the book were neither peer reviewed as academic work or sent around as preprint to scholars. It has a lot of flaws. You and many others found a way to talk about your nigger anxieties without using the word nigger. As I said, what's the plan now? Have a good think about what to do with all of the tragically inferior ex slaves. I'm gone on holidays.
Watchdog Flags Ethics Landmine for Biden Admin in Landmark Affirmative Action Case Protect the Public's Trust filed a Freedom of Information Act request Wednesday for information about Solicitor General Elizabeth Prelogar's involvement with a legal brief the administration filed urging the Court to reject a lawsuit accusing Harvard of bias against Asians. Prelogar, a former Harvard employee, is barred by the Biden administration's ethics pledge from participating in the case without a waiver. The request seeks all records relating to the decision to grant Prelogar a waiver, as well as communications involving Prelogar and the case, Students for Fair Admissions v. Harvard. An ethics screwup would be an unwelcome addition to the case, which is a sensitive matter for the Biden administration. President Joe Biden had to resolve a dustup with Asian Democrats over the dearth of Asian nominees to top political posts early in his term. And some Asian affinity groups have quietly expressed frustration with Vice President Kamala Harris, who they say prioritizes her black roots over her Indian ones. The Harvard case is the biggest piece of pending business before the Supreme Court. Beyond accusing Harvard of anti-Asian discrimination, the plaintiffs are urging the justices to forbid consideration of race in college admissions.
Landmark Affirmative Action Case? The Supreme Court has twice ruled colleges can use race in their admissions process
The present system creates an illusion of progress by pretending, and leaves eighty percent of black and brown people behind. We can do better. The purpose of the thread is to point out anti-Asian discrimination.
Its not an illusion of progress, its actual progress. You are unpatriotic and spineless, an inferior white doing what you guys do. There have been several versions of you over the years on ET and its always the case of their families being 20th century immigrants usually from some shitty part of Europe, running from something more than to. First and 2nd gen who use the word "we" a lot about America but arrived too late to shape anything. I'll have a look later, I have a Lycoming engine to reassemble.
