Yale Scholar: Avoid White Men ‘To Stay Alive’
This is what happens when ideological activism is substituted for intellectual honesty.
Something strange is happening at America’s colleges and universities. A movement is arising, undirected and driven largely by students, to scrub campuses clean of words, ideas, and subjects that might cause discomfort or give offense.
The list of offensive statements included: “America is the land of opportunity” and “I believe the most qualified person should get the job.”
You might call this impulse vindictive protectiveness. It is creating a culture in which everyone must think twice before speaking up, lest they face charges of insensitivity, aggression, or worse.
