Charles Blow, a NYT op-edder, pw3ns private religious schools for their “racism” (read: white).
Bill Anderson, a Lew Rockwellian, responds with a little bit of inconvenient historical and present truth.
I think Blow is wrong for different reason — Per Patterson’s First Axiom, nothing cures the thirst for integration like a good dose of itself. Force all these (supposedly) white high school students out of their private schools and into the blackboard jungle black and Hispanic public schools, as “bad” as he thinks they are now in using “racial slurs,” they’ll be Theodore Bilbo in their politics within a year.
Ironically, if Blow is limiting his critique to New York City “private religious” schools, then he doesn’t know how ironic is his criticism — When you think of a private religious school if you’re here in St. Louis, you think of the many single-gender Catholic high schools or the many co-ed Lutheran high schools around here, and maybe a fundagelical “Low Protestant” type school scattered about. But that’s not the case in New York City — Most of its private religious high schools are either Jewish or Muslim. Since Blow wants us only to think of white racism, so it seems, then he must be focused only on the Jewish schools. And there, it’s perfectly obvious that Theodore Bilbo isn’t the Vice-Principal for Academics, more like Laurence Tribe. If its (Jewish) students are using racial slurs, it’s only in the spirit of natural teenage rebellion against their immediate authorities, in their case, very racially leftist teachers and administrators.
One more thing — All of these results come from a survey of high school students. As Dr. House says every week, everybody lies.
