Dear Log,
HFB said she liked thet Richard Rodriguez article that I linked to, so here's more from my heap-big link heap:
Alakazam!
Alakazim!
Shazbot!
Dios mio!
Notable pullquotes:
"What people mean by multiculturalism is different hues of themselves. They don't mean Islamic fundamentalists or skinheads. They mean other brown and black students who share opinions like theirs. It isn't diversity. It's a pretense to diversity."
"I am no more in favor of assimilation than I am in favor of the Pacific Ocean. Assimilation is not something to oppose or favor - it just happens."
"It occurs to me, as a brown man in America, that maybe what we are dealing with is some kind of love affair between the two races, in which they are only prepared to imagine an America peopled by each other, and anybody else becomes a kind of menage ÃÂ trois too difficult to manage. I assure you, the future looks more like Keanu Reeves than it looks like O.J. Simpson."
