Makes me wanna Bo-aaalt
Critical Mass: Boalt jumps the speechless shark #
Short version: A guest lecturer at a Boalt law class was role-playing the part of a difficult client and made a comment – in the role of that difficult client – that his company didn’t use “inferior Mexican immigrant labor.” In the response, the Boalt administration jerks both knees faster than you can say “wetback” to make sure this kind of racist role-playing never happens again. #
Jesus. #
To paraphrase George Carlin, It ain’t racist speech you have to be worried about; it’s the racist asshole who’s saying it you should be concerned with. Likewise, insensitive, racist remarks coming from a sensitive non-racist are no cause for alarm. #
I mean, this is where we send young men and women to be educated, fer Chrissake. #
