Racism in Black and white

Over at Law & Liberty, our skeptical doctor points to another disturbing and odious trend brought to you by the usual ‘woke’ leftist cadres.

The supposition that by capitalising the word black, but not the word white, some benefit is being conferred on black people is both condescending and demeaning to the supposed beneficiaries. Among other things, it supposes that they are defined purely or largely by how others refer to them in newspapers or other publications. It suggests that they can, and indeed need to, be rescued or saved by the merest gesture of those higher in the social scale than they.

    I just discovered the work of (now my beloved) skeptical doctor from, of all things, the review of the first french translation of your boom.
    I soon became “addicted” to thoughts and reflections.
    Ever possibile an italiano edition?
    There are “pastures” of Italians Who could benefici from reading and discussing these subjects!
