raucus and racial

Men talk of the Negro problem. There is no Negro problem. The problem is whether the American people have honesty enough, loyalty enough, honor enough, patriotism enough to live up to their own Constitution

-- Frederick Douglass, August 1893

Finally grumpy and sleepy, I lob a shell over to my good man John.

i find it interesting that we remain so focused on the travails of several thousand graduate students in this blessed nation.

as fascinating as it is, i wonder if you might do us a favor and cast your searchlight over to the caseload of the EEOC, which handles those discriminations which might be deemed criminal.

it's late and i'm thinking somewhat fuzzily, but it occurs to me that we are so fortunate to have precise regimes like the U of M to quantify exactly how much racial discrimination is going on. it's like legalized marijuana in the hands of brilliant marketers like philip morris.

if we are just saying no to racial discrimination as a blanket zero-tolerance policy, is it a better thing or a worse thing that it is managed with such efficiency at our nations' finest universities? because from where i stand the mote of university affirmative action has distracted us from the many beams of racism in american society, most significantly those outlined by glenn loury.

i understand the rationale for making the case against university affirmative action, what i don't understand is the lack of proportionality evident in this relentless struggle on behalf of students so close to the top of the food chain.

have you never heard of redlining?
