Harvey’s Introduction

Dennis Chauvin was convicted of murder by the system but the jury and the world also convicted him as a racist, although there was no evidence of that alleged or presented at his trial. You would not realize that until you noticed that race mongers in the White House, the Congress and the progressive press simply wanted to reinforce their narrative of institutional racism throughout the justice system. Evidence is not needed if the criminal is black and the policeman is white. Andrew McCarthy does an excellent job explaining this as always in his essays.

Harvey’s Introduction

The pursuit of equity has morphed from equality of opportunity to equality of outcome for whatever groups chosen. In this article, the author deals with taking merit out of the selection for elite public high schools in New York because the proportion of black and Latino students is lower than their proportion of total students. He argues that this will have a negative effect on black kids. I would add it will also result in a worsening of race relations and a lot of bitterness. There are several links in the article, all of which are worth reading

This is having the effect of cancelling conservative thinking and conservative ideas. We are raising a generation of snow flakes who have not learned to hear, understand and evaluate what they believe are invalid arguments. it will not end well. This article helps define how bad the situation is currently.
