The why make an article about it? This “letter” reads as if Candace Owens wrote it. Her ideas have already been trashed, so the only difference between the 2 is one claims to be a professor at Berkeley and the other is a talking head.
It shouldn’t affect the strength of my argument above, but for the record, I write as a person of color . My family have been personally victimized by men like Floyd. We are aware of the condescending depredations of the Democrat party against our race. The humiliating assumption that we are too stupid to do STEM , that we need special help and lower requirements to get ahead in life, is richly familiar to us. I sometimes wonder if it wouldn’t be easier to deal with open fascists, who at least would be straightforward in calling me a subhuman, and who are unlikely to share my race.
interesting. i suspected this would not bode well for dems. of course back then the nation wasnt full of anti-american leftwits. regardless i still all this is part of some strategy.
Given the history of mob violence in Berkeley, I think that a professor who openly posted the letter would have a legitimate fear of violent attack. That may not be the case an UNC.
I actually found another History professor who is black at Berkeley. Waldo Martin…
He wrote authored publications such as
The Mind of Fredrick Douglass
The Making of Black America
Brown v Board of Education
Be real black for me: Representation, authenticity, and the cultural politics of Black Power
Yea… he didn’t write it.
There are only 2 “People of Color” in the history sept at Berkeley. Both black. Everyone else… white.
I am certain that if my name were attached to this email, I would lose my joband all future jobs, even though I believe in and can justify every word I type.
This is the problem I have with the leftist narrative, I support their right to protest but detest and loathe the fact they are making it to were any dissenting view is unacceptable. Free speech must be absolute, and he shouldn’t have to send the letter as anonymous to avoid being fired for breaking with hive thinking.
By literally the majority in the black community. Candace Owens is a joke, but she is smart enough to take advantage of her audience. I’ll give her that. Can’t knock the hustle.
Anywho… A professor black history professor at Berkeley didn’t write this.
