[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No, I don't think the NYT article incited violence.

Nor do I think that this article was particularly good, to be honest. Not sociology-professor-from-Georgetown-level good.

Even though I think that, yes, everyone has a lot of work to do--Whites maybe especially--to open our eyes to what is going on, and what we an do about it in a constructive, equitable, reparational way.[/quote]

How about reparations for coal miners un Appalachia? Chinese who worked on the railroad? Japanese interned? White sweat shop descendants? Everyone has suffered; everyone has hope . Except in limited cases (GU trackng down the descendants of sold enslaved workers is interesting, though I dont think they owe them money) I am tired of this culture of victimization. I think it has gotten us to this precipice. Left is truly a glass is half empty, bankrupt philosophy. [/quote]

The Chinese were paid for their labor on the railroad. They were not slaves, but los wage workers. The interned Japanese were given reparations. Coal
Miners in Appalachia are laid to work and safety laws created for better work conditions.  You lost me with white sweat shop descendants. [/quote]
