This Week in Racism
We aplogize for the light content load the past couple of days. We have found ourselves in the midst of finals and other, more long-term problems. And so we thought we would direct your attention to New Yorker scribe Malcolm Gladwell’s newest post on the topic of racism. He writes:
Between Michael Richards’ outburst in a comedy nightclub, Mel Gibson’s tirade of a few months back, and Michael Irvin’s musings about Tony Romo’s racial heritage, I’m wondering if we need a clearer definition of what it means to be a racist.
Defining racism seems like quite an undertaking, does it now? But he does it. He actually does it. Hey, Gladwell. How’d you get so fucking smart?
