<p class="MsoNormal">A vast array of media talking heads wait with bated breath
for an expected IDF invasion of the Gaza Strip, and seem perturbed by the delay. The picture drawn in some
quarters seems to envisage the big kosher machine, covered by artillery and air
power, lumbering forward block by block, clearing buildings, flushing out
tunnels, rescuing hostages, and so on. It is a Hamaz dream. Welcome Israeli friends to our extensive tunnel network, our fulsome spread of mines and IEDs,
our suicide bombers rushing out in sacrificial strikes, and our cheery ambush
and sniper attacks from said tunnels, buildings and “the usual” bunkers,
pillboxes and fortified strong-points. Such a “mano-a-mano” scenario will play
well with the “<st1:street>Arab Street</st1:street>”:
once again, the forces of the faithful are standing up to the evil ones.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">In the meantime, Hezbollah launches “the usual” barrages of
rockets on to Israeli territory in support, and with diversionary intent. Whether
martyrdom is the goal, or a body count that will make the Israelis both bleed
and blink from the casualties, or both, the street would understand and cheer,
and such an outcome is expected to lead to a ceasefire on somewhat favorable
terms- such as a massive prisoner swap, pressure from the Western and Arab powers
to put the brakes on Israel, and an end to the current Israeli blockade over
Gaza. We have already seen this movie before. Another plus for Hamas that its
standing might be enhanced vis a vis the rival PA (Palestinian Authority) on
the <st1:place>West Bank</st1:place>. Or not, since a weakened or devastated Hamas strengthens the PA alternative.</p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p>Various media talking heads quite rightly speculate on the
difficulties facing a ground offensive. Most of Hamas leaders have gone
underground, but no doubt there are some front-line fighters who are anxious, indeed
eager for such a confrontation. They have a number of legitimate grievances from their perspective, and this confrontation is what they were warned about,
this is what they trained for. Who can blame them? Hey, if they are going to die
anyway- what better way than in battle, making their enemy pay a heavy
price? This is no irrational fantasy -
they are not expecting to defeat the IDF physically. The goal is to create a
high enough enemy body count so that (a) outside intervention eventually limits the
pain, and (b) political gains, on various dimensions can be claimed. This is
what Hezbollah has done in its various confrontations, and they claimed
“victory” over <st1:country-region>Israel</st1:country-region>,
in that the IDF eventually withdrew from the zone of confrontation in <st1:country-region>Lebanon</st1:country-region>. But will it be a "victory?"</p><p class="MsoNormal"><br /></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The Japanese had a partially similar idea during WWII, hunkered down
in their isolated island garrisons, only there was no UN, Arab League. <st1:country-region>United
States</st1:country-region>, or world opinion to bail them out.
They perhaps are the only fighters who consistently achieved true martyrdom. Even
the tough Russians surrendered by the millions, and post-WWII, Arab armies have
collapsed relatively quickly, even when they had superior numbers and plenty of
reasonable quality fighting equipment. Not so the men of <st1:place>Nippon</st1:place>.
As British Sir General William Slim once famously said of the Japanese: “<i>Everyone
talks about fighting to the last man and the last bullet. In World War II, the
Japanese soldier was the only one who did</i>.”</p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Given the undoubted fighting spirit and sacrificial bravery
of some Hamas militants, why on earth should the IDF play their enemy’s attritional
“bleed and blink” game? Some have pointed to Hezbollah threats on the northern
border as a reason for an IDF ground offensive delay. This is certainly a factor,
but not of strategic significance. Secondary forces and airpower could be
allocated to contain that threat without seriously impacting the main show in <st1:city>Gaza</st1:city>.
More to the point is a high enough payoff the Israeli public will accept for the difficulties incurred when getting bogged down
in the <st1:city>Gaza</st1:city> tarpit. Hence the IDF
may delay any massive ground movement until a “rubbleization” interval, in which
Hamas’ military, material and financial infrastructure, along with important
manpower resources, built up at such sacrifice over the years is degraded or
destroyed, </p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">This scenario will involve targeting Hamaz command, control
and communication nodes and leaders with precision fires: missiles, drones,
“smart” bombs keyed to laser pinpointing, and accurate strikes by artillery. These
fires will also expand to target Hamas infrastructure: roads, bridges, sewer
systems, buildings, embedded bunkers tunnels and strongpoints,
and other structures clearly used to shield military assets. It is hoped that demilitarized humanitarian safe zones and corridors should be expanded for civilians, and medical facilities and personnel are not targeted as <a href="https://normanfinkelstein.substack.com/p/israel-would-never-target-medical?utm_source=profile&utm_medium=reader2" target="_blank">charged </a>by Amnesty International and the Goldstone Report in previous operations..</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">This approach essentially leaves Hamas with a lot of rubble
to rule over and “administer.” One wonders what it will have gained
significantly, after the dust settles. Stirring speeches of defiance- yes.
Surviving tunnels and bunkers- of course. But given the civilian and material
cost, is it worth it? Another end result of this latest conflict is that the
Israeli blockade of <st1:city>Gaza</st1:city> is
unlikely to be lifted anytime soon, nor will its economic crisis improve
dramatically. In 2012, Qatari emir, Sheik Hamad bin Khalifa al-Thani, visited <st1:city>Gaza</st1:city>
and gave Hamas $400 million in aid. It is unlikely such largesse will be left
unmolested by <st1:country-region>Israel</st1:country-region>
this time around. Rather than improve the livelihood of its people, Hamas has
essentially doomed them to another decade of deprivation and poverty, when there were better, less costly options available. The sad, searing testimonies of Gaza civilians caught in the crossfire (see https://www.btselem.org) more than illustrate the case, as once safe, thriving neighborhoods are transformed to rubble.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> <br /></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Readers or collectors of the old Marvel Comics “Supervillian
Team-up” series of the 1970s would recall the first issue where the sorcerer and
master of alchemy, Diablo, seeks to force Doctor Doom to join him in a plan of
world domination, by using an old time machine of Doom. The stick behind the
carrot is a hostage scenario- a former girlfriend of Doom is held hostage by
Diablo. Doom pretends to be interested initially, but subtly alters the time
machine’s controls, then uses the time gained to rescue his ex, and attack the
alchemist. Angered by Doom’s eventual rejection of his plan, Diablo seeks to
banish the master of mayhem into the time-stream, but Doom’s “reverse
alteration” of the time-machine instead sends Diablo himself hurtling into the void. The sorcerer materializes
far into earth’s future, on to a devastated rubble-filled earth, where he truly
will have obtained his fondest wish, to be earth’s ruler, forevermore.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p>It could be argued that even this allegory still leaves
Hamas in control of large swathes of ruined <st1:city>Gaza</st1:city>
“earth”, and that they have not been totally defeated or liquidated. This is
true, but for the past several years the IDF has not attempted any apocalyptic
final campaign in <st1:city>Gaza</st1:city>, but instead
a “mowing the grass” strategy. This means suppression of periodic outbreaks,
with success being measured by periods of comparative calm, or low level
nuisance activity, until the next outbreak. Then the “grass” is once again
“mowed” for the next cycle of suppression and relative calm.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Where’s the proof of concept you ask? Just look at the last
few confrontations. In 2014, Israel passed on any substantial mass ground
invasion during its “Protective Edge” operation, and also proved that its much
touted aversion to casualties was overblown, provided that the IDF achieved
tangible results against its enemies. As one analysis puts it:</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> "</o:p><span style="color: red;">On a political level, Protective
Edge prompted Israeli policymakers to rethink </span><st1:country-region><st1:place><span style="color: red;">Israel</span></st1:place></st1:country-region><span style="color: red;">’s sensitivity to casualties. As one Israeli defense
correspondent explained, Israel accepted the fact right after its birth that
military casualties were—while tragic—the necessary price of its survival, but
became increasingly averse to casualties over the decades.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: red;"> Protective
Edge proved this assumption about casualty sensitivity incorrect. </span><st1:country-region><st1:place><span style="color: red;">Israel</span></st1:place></st1:country-region><span style="color: red;"> endured 72 casualties, a significant number given its small
population of eight million people and far more than it suffered in Pillar of
Defense or Cast Lead, and yet it fought on. Indeed, one senior Israeli
policymaker recounted, “Families of the wounded and </span><span style="color: red;">dying called on the prime minister
to continue operations. They felt </span><st1:country-region><st1:place><span style="color: red;">Israel</span></st1:place></st1:country-region><span style="color: red;"> was justified, which was why people were in favor of the
operation despite the casualties.”3 In the end, the Israeli public tolerated
military casualties, provided the IDF achieved tangible results. As one senior
Israeli policymaker noted, “</span><st1:country-region><st1:place><span style="color: red;">Israel</span></st1:place></st1:country-region><span style="color: red;"> needs to feel it achieved something, and then the public
won’t care about the Israeli casualties. It very much depends on the results of
the operation.”</span></p>

What tunnel homes?</b></div><div><div style="text-align: center;"><b><br /></b></div><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p>A less than satisfying scenario? Sure, and a peaceful settlement would be better, even given the implacable hatred and fear on both sides. But from a military IDF perspective, standoff attacks, whether by long-range assets or of the "surround and pound" variety where ground forces serve as blocking or holding elements, may be a lot cheaper
than mass casualties in a hurried ground invasion to satisfy public clamor.
What about the hostages? Well considering it took <st1:stockticker>FIVE</st1:stockticker>
YEARS and a prisoner swap of over 1,000 Palestinians to get back ONE Israeli
soldier, Gilad Shalit, captured in 2006, why do so many people expect some sort
of quick resolution? The hostages taken this time around are likewise unlikely
to be released anytime soon. From the perspective of the ordinary Palestinian civilian of course, the scene looks much different.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><br />
And what would a ground invasion look like if it eventually happens? Don’t look
for a lumbering street by street, block by block slogging operation. Most
likely the IDF will drive quickly to seize certain key areas and logistical/communication
nodes, and then work OUTWARD from there to tackle only the most significant
zones in detail. Relatively small Special Forces can also be used as "ferret teams" to finger/ferret out opposition hideouts as targets, then sit back while "surround and pound" air and ground firepower is brought to bear, lessening IDF casualties, though not necessarily civilian ones. Relatively small combined arms raiding teams made up of armor, engineer and infantry elements, covered by lethal air and artillery, will also be deployed to hit specific objectives hard, rather than use lumbering street by street clearance columns. Will there be some hard fighting? Of course, but not every single tunnel or militant in <st1:city>Gaza</st1:city>
does not have to be engaged. Expect significant use of the smaller forces above, not the Russian style saturation bombing and artillery “three-all”
mayhem (burn all, kill all destroy all) that it executed in Chechnya to crush
the opposition there. Just as in the “rubbleization” phase, Hamas is kept
hunkered down, penned into wastelands of stone and dirt. Who needs to expend
mass casualties to dig them out? The Israelis have Hamas just where they want them-
with the Hamas rocket inventory exhausted save for last gasp salvos, unable to replenish
military supplies or even sufficient civilian tonnage. </p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p>Does this mean that Hamas will fold up and surrender?
Unlikely. And will they still maintain some semblance of a force or movement in
various bunkers, cellars, tunnels and ruined buildings breathing defiance against their
enemy? Certainly. They may even claim that their digging in amidst the rubble
deters the IDF from mass attack. Indeed. But as shown above, why would the IDF
play the building by building, warren by warren clearance game, when their foes
can be killed, buried under increasing tons of dirt, or otherwise neutralized,
where the best they can do is hunker down in static positions yielding weak
combat power? The Hamas fighters, like the Japanese penned into a relatively
small areas, are at a big disadvantage, and lack even the substantial artillery and
firepower assets the Japanese defenders dug in with. Nor like the Japanese, can
they be reinforced with fresh bodies, now that the battle has been joined,
and they are being worked over by air, artillery, and armored firepower.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">In the Pacific War the US learned to bypass numerous well defended Japanese-held islands and leap to areas offering more advantageous conditions for the next advance. The bypassed areas were left to "wither on the vine"- albeit with a steady diet of airpower and potential threat of sea invasion. In the Gaza case, its not "wither on the vine" but "rubble in place." The much talked about "ground invasion" may thus just be an ominous threat "in being," diverting media attention and demonstrating Israeli "restraint." Meanwhile the real lethal work is being done by the "rubble specialists" in Gaza. This of course does not rule out the mass introduction of ground forces, but as shown above, such mass movement is not necessary for Israel to accomplish many important objectives, including a territory wide smashing of Hamas and its assets, a gift and perfect excuse handed to it by Hamas leadership. </p><p class="MsoNormal">Did the Israelis not realize that their long blockade of the territory would yield <a href="Conditions for a ceasefire: Why Hamas fires those rockets". The Economist. 19 July 2014. " target="_blank">negative results</a> absent some sort of settlement? Did the deep-thinkers of Hamas not expect a massive, violent counter-reaction by Israel to mass attacks and mass kidnappings against their citizens, a reaction over and above the limited operations of <i>Cast Lead</i> (2008) and <i>Protective Edge (2014)</i>?? <b>Thanks to such Hamas leadership decisions, the Israelis once again enjoy the upper hand in the attritional competition between the peoples. The "bargaining chip" hostages are actually a liability - they provide a convenient rationale for prolonging multiple agonies. The Israelis have not only devastated precious infrastructure, cowed the civilian population, and crippled important sets of fighting manpower, but now have yet another excuse to keep Gaza on a leash for years, allowing in only a trickle of material, to maintain subsistence levels. How is this outcome supposed to have benefitted the ordinary people of Gaza? <br /><br />But perhaps ordinary people are merely pawns and cannon fodder to sacrifice for other egos and agendas. </b>Yes, in due time, the diplomatic talking heads may eventually arrange for
multiple “ceasefires” until the next round. Stay tuned.. In the meantime, Hamas, is
kept hunkered down amidst its sad caliphate of rubble.</p>

memoir "James Patterson by James Patterson: The Stories of My Life" with
The Sunday Times that published last weekend, the 75-year-old author lamented
on the perceived plight of white men in the entertainment industry, calling
their struggle to find writing jobs in film, theater, TV and publishing
industries.</span></b></p><p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="color: red;">"[Its} "just another form of racism." </span></b><b><span style="color: red;">What’s that all about?"
he continued. "Can you get a job? Yes. Is it harder? Yes. It’s even harder
for older writers.

"Publishing executives responded by releasing statements expressing support for racial justice, announcing antiracism training and promising to put out more books by writers of color."</li><li>A huge NY Times sampling of data from major publishing houses revealed that 95% of the authors were white.</li><li>A 2008 survey turned up the same results- 88% of those published were white authors. As did a 2020 survey- 89% of the books were written by white authors. </li><li>A 2019 NYT survey also found white dominance on the backend, the "gatekeepers": 85% of the people who acquire and edit books are white.. Another survey again shows a similar pattern: . A January 2020 survey by Lee & Low Books found that 76% of publishing employees were White, and 74% were cisgender women.</li><li>USAToday ran stats on its own Top Seller's list. Again whites dominated over 85% of the list, including Bill O'Reilly, John Grisham, David Baldacci, Nicholas Sparks, right wing polemicist Mark Levan, and, of course, James Patterson.</li><li>Several established Black editors and authors noted that white publishers seemed to be using an informal "quota" system, where 2 or 3 titles by black authors signaled a "done" for that particular year or time cycle.</li><li>Within related media such as film, a 2022 Hollywood Diversity Report conducted by the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) found that white, male directors continue to be an overwhelming majority throughout the years - in 2019, 85.6% of directors were white while 84.9% were male. </li><li>Patterson was also taken to task for the irony of one of the richest, most notable and best-selling authors, a white male, lamenting how bad things are for white males, but lets not go there. </li></ul>See:<br />https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2022-06-13/james-patterson-says-white-male-authors-face-racism-sparks-backlash<br /><br />https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2020/12/11/opinion/culture/diversity-publishing-industry.html<br /><br />https://www.salon.com/2022/06/13/james-patterson-caucasian-male-writers/<br /><br />https://www.usatoday.com/story/entertainment/books/2022/06/17/james-patterson-white-men-racism-do-book-sales-support-claim/7640384001/<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhmQJAnDaHrbxSua9Y6ebIV1D-KmR9Jnku-yKs9ixzPZATKLzhkuKvIkpAxUHnGyNzV5f7B_NRtcNV0xKIi_IFm6ESdVnQ2THRn0nH_tCAMWnix2NugbM3TLYq3n-jSd6gHFk8ExTK4N4EMiwyxkHLlsHI2oYwSXztUiQVYLXaOSjsqd3m0UALlOCsEqg/s451/jamespatterson.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="451" data-original-width="300" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhmQJAnDaHrbxSua9Y6ebIV1D-KmR9Jnku-yKs9ixzPZATKLzhkuKvIkpAxUHnGyNzV5f7B_NRtcNV0xKIi_IFm6ESdVnQ2THRn0nH_tCAMWnix2NugbM3TLYq3n-jSd6gHFk8ExTK4N4EMiwyxkHLlsHI2oYwSXztUiQVYLXaOSjsqd3m0UALlOCsEqg/s320/jamespatterson.jpg" width="213" /></a><br />A victim...<br /><br /><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><b>Why is "reverse racism" being invoked when it is pretty clear from almost all available data that the main reason white males have lost ground is white women? </b></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">Interesting that Patterson, who as a veteran with decades in the field invokes "racism" when he is quite aware that a large slice of people on either the best-selling, or regular author lists. much more so that any authors of color, are white women.

Their struggle was dismissed and distorted as a "black giveaway" by right-wing media operatives, when in fact, in an exceedingly complicated case involving tens of thousands, the black farmers as a whole saw minimal amounts (what's $50,000 per head for example, when one farm combine may cost $300,000, or debt service might cost $10,000 per month), or no compensation at all. And what about the white wrongdoers still in place within the USDA who engineered the discrimination problem? Little of this is mentioned in the distorted right-wing "giveaway" narrative. As of this writing, many are still in place. As one detailed history notes:</div><div><span style="color: red;"><br />“The civil rights and equal
opportunity laws of the mid-1960s prompted USDA bureaucrats to embrace equal
rights rhetorically even as they intensified discrimination. This passive
nullification, voicing agreement with equal rights while continuing or
intensifying discrimination, did not rely on antebellum intellectual arguments
or confrontations but instead thrived silently in the offices of biased employees.
Phone calls and conversations at segregated meetings and conventions left no
racist fingerprints, but the accretion of prejudice festered and ultimately
grew into a plan to eliminate minority, women, and small farmers by preventing
their sharing equally in federal programs. Despite overwhelming evidence of
discrimination, incompetence, and falsehoods in many offices, the USDA never
cut off funds to those offices, and apparently no white person was fired and
few were even relocated or reprimanded.”</span></div><div>

Too much of the current anti-"critical theory" "campaign" though provides an excellent, diversionary propaganda strawman that allows people to avoid honestly discussing the issues, or even acknowledging the simple facts. The strawman is designed so people don't have to think - they knee-jerk, like lemmings, only have to remember standard propaganda phrases- somewhat like how the charge of "communism" was deployed to stifle or sidetrack civil rights campaigns and leaders. Seems some methods never change. But hey, Patterson is to be commended for his refutation of the dastardly "critical" theory.

No "endorsement" is made here of instances where ordinary white guys have been hurt by various "quota" schemes. There are such men and they deserve some sympathy and understanding rather that a sneeringly dismissive "welcome to the club." The dismal history of race relations is still yielding negative fallout decades or centuries later, as even these descendants of white folk long gone pay the price for the sins of their, or other fathers. Some of these males also are victims of "quick fixes" installed by those at the top, who installed discriminatory systems to begin with. For such controllers, policies such as "tokenism," where a few blacks are hired to make a lawsuit go away, or at times even a more detailed legal settlement or consent agreement to settle a lawsuit, presented an easy way out in the post Civil Rights Act landscape. "Quick fixes" can make legal headaches go away and can prevent too deep a scrutiny of entrenched segregationist or "good old boy" practices that have benefitted whites in the past, but their exposure can mean sacrifices as well lower down the line. Individual cases where unfairness has occurred indeed deserve consideration, but alas, such stories have too often been manipulated into a master narrative of evil blacks and massive oppression via punishing "quotas" against a pitiful WVG (White Victim Guy). The narrative is distorted for several reasons:</div><div><br /></div><div><ul style="text-align: left;"><li>The primary beneficiaries of assorted "quotas" in the past were white but fast forward to the post-civil rights era and the same pattern reappears- primary gainers are again white, usually white women as shown by credible research.</li><li>So-called "quotas" also did not appear in a vacuum - they were enacted because of past and current discrimination. In fact, aside from routine discrimination in favor of whites into the early 1970s, as legal remedies they first appear in favor of 1930s white union members were discriminated against because of union membership. Courts realized that politely saying "please stop" was a waste of time, unless backed with measurable, specific actions to make whole victims of anti-union discrimination (See: <span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 16.02px;"><i>Sowell, Thomas (1975) Affirmative Action Reconsidered. The Public Interest 3, pg 48-65</i></span>).</li><li>As far as race, they first appeared substantially in the late 1960s (such as Nixon's Philadelphia Plan) and early 1970s. Far from their being a massive "wave of oppression" against WVGs (White Victim Guys), white courts have generally moved to limit their applicability and reduce their impact as ruling after ruling shows.<br /><br /></li><li>White Victim Guys (WVGs), far from being hapless victims, have actually posted numerous <b>wins </b>in court against "quotas", or limited their applicability, and often secured themselves individual relief. The famous <i>Bakke </i>case for example circa 1974, saw a win for WVG <i>Allan Bakke</i>, and limitations put on various "affirmative action" practices in higher education. Follow-up rulings (Gratz, Grutter, Fisher) have also brought whites individual relief, and even if not overturning specific AA schemes, saw their scope and application narrowed, meaning even fewer white people were affected by them. White Plaintiff Jennifer Gratz for example was <b>victorious </b>in her suit, which struck down a Univ. of Michigan AA admission scheme. </li><li>Even when various AA plans are not struck down by lawsuits whites have often obtained alternative means to advance themselves in spite of the claimed "insurmountable" barriers to white folk due to "quotas." White plaintiff Amy Fisher for example who failed on her own merit to qualify for admission to the premiere flagship Univ of Texas Law School, was offered a deal by the university where she could <b>still </b>get into the flagship school, if she attended a satellite campus for a set period and then transferred to the premiere institution- essentially giving her the slot she wanted. This deal was not a special case but was long an alternative entry means.</li><li>Where legal challenges fail they can still result in a narrowing restriction on AA subsequently via the political process. White Plaintiff Barbara Grutter sued over an AA plan and <b>won </b>at the lower and appellate levels, before the Supreme Court declined to throw out the university's AA scheme as illegal. In response a 2006 Michigan political campaign heavily approved by white voters amended the state constitution to outlaw AA in education and public employment (<i>the Michigan Proposal 2, Affirmative Action Initiative (2006</i>). The same Supreme Court that declined to cancel the university upheld the constitutional amendment ban against AA. This again, was a <b>victory for the white plaintif</b>f if she had chosen to follow-up and attend school. Likewise in venues like fire or police departments- a hotbed of conflicts over quotas" - the record shows multiple white <b>VICTORIES </b>by WVGs.<br /><br /></li><li>Far from "quotas" swamping hapless white victims, as far as higher education for example, the percentage of blacks (between 4 and 8 percent) has barely budged in over 30 years at most big name Flagship campuses where most of the AA controversy rages. See (NY Times 2017- "<b><a href=""Even With Affirmative Action, Blacks and Hispanics Are More Underrepresented at Top Colleges Than 35 Years Ago"" target="_blank">Even With Affirmative Action, Blacks and Hispanics Are More Underrepresented at Top Colleges Than 35 Years Ago</a></b>") <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2017/08/24/us/affirmative-action.html" style="font-weight: bold;">https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2017/08/24/us/affirmative-action.html</a><br /><br />Likewise AA critics Sanders and Taylor (2012) in their acclaimed book <i>Mismatch: How Affirmative Action Hurts Students It's Intended to Help, and Why Universities Won't Admit It</i> , show the black percentage hovering at around 5-6% for the last 30 years at the elite law schools examined- and some of that percentage was in place without needing any "quotas." Yet another review (Gurin et al 2003.<i> How does Racial/Ethnic Diversity Promote Education?</i> WJBS. 27:1) found that affirmative action exists primarily in highly selective colleges that barely have more than 8-10% black students. Such campuses are not where the vast majority, the OTHER 90-92% of black students attend.

These affluent white "legacy" admits, typically have lower grades and performance, especially when compared to other minorities like Asians.

Per one researcher: <br /><span style="color: red;">"Reverse discrimination is <b>rare </b>both in absolute terms and relative to conventional discrimination. The most direct evidence for this conclusion comes from employment-audit studies. On every measured outcome, African-American men were much more likely than white men to experience discrimination, and Latinos were more likely than non-Hispanic men to experience discrimination (Heckman and Siegelman 1993, p. 218) Statistics on the numbers and outcomes of complaints of employment discrimination also suggest that reverse discrimination is rare. <br /><br />According to national surveys, relatively few whites have experienced reverse discrimination. Only 5 to 12 percent of whites believe that their race has cost them a job or promotion, compared to 36 percent of African Americans Alfred Blumrosen's (1996, pp. 5-6) exhaustive review of discrimination complaints filed with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission offers additional evidence that reverse discrimination is rare...

These cases were over 30 years ago, and had ripple effects across the board, calling into question laments about a vast veil of contemporary "oppression" against white people. Per one scholar: <br /><br /><span style="color: red;">"Pressures for affirmative action by federal contractors waned during the 1980s.

In fact, the record often shows minority candidates in various places being <b>MORE qualified </b>than the white ones, but it took a lawsuit, or a new law, or a consent settlement or political pressure to finally get the MORE qualified minority the job. White talk about "merit" often had a hypocritical ring, when a black man showed up. Examples are legion in the legal and historical record- that of <b>MORE qualified </b>blacks frozen out until they applied or gained one or more of the pressuring actions above. <br /><br />Take the case of famous color barrier breaker Jackie Robinson. A superb athlete, Jackie (and numerous other black players from the "Negro Leagues) was BETTER than a lot of white players, but he/they were always frozen out of the game in favor of lesser qualified white males. What gave Jackie his chance was relentless political pressure in WW2 era New York (a major venue of the sport), including a new anti-discrimination state law passed in 1945. There was even international pressure during the early Cold War era and the Soviets had a field day pointing out that the American "land of opportunity" was a hypocritical sham, when <b>MORE </b>qualified black players were denied a chance to play the "Great American Pastime." Even the Japanese during WW2 harped on white hypocrisy as regards baseball. See: (M. Klarman 1994<i> From Slavery to Civil Rights,</i> or <i style="font-size: 13.5pt;">Martha

These patterns mean that even today when white men and women go to work they will often be employed in workplaces where there is not a single black male, black female, Hispanic male, Hispanic female, Asian male, or Asian female coworker. One of these groups will almost always be represented among their coworkers, but one or more groups may be entirely absent.

Much more striking has been the rapidly declining workplace segregation between white men and women. In 1966, white men and women were nearly totally segregated at work, residing in separate and typically unequal work. While white sex segregation remains high today, it is now lower than white male–Asian male segregation and almost as low as white male segregation from other minority men. Researchers have routinely assumed that sex segregation was higher than race segregation. This was clearly true in 1966, but by the year 2002 it seems more reasonable to say that the workplace barriers between white men and white women are now equivalent to those between white men and minority men. White women have clearly benefited the most from the legal and institutional prohibitions against workplace segregation.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: red;">We also have a set of remarkable findings about the segregation patterns of white women. Across the entire post–Civil Rights Act period, white women have been rapidly integrating employment settings with white men, have slowly integrated with minority men, and are increasingly segregated from minority women... Overall, forty years after the law changed to make workplace segregation illegal, it remains high. Most whites work with other whites. Increasingly, white women work with white men. The big success story of the equal rights revolution in the private sector is the integration of white men and women. Cross-race progress among men stalled in the 1980s and among women has worsened since the mid-1970s."</span></p><p class="MsoNormal">[FROM: --Donald Tomaskovic-Devey and Kevin Stainback. 2007.

Few deny this, but again, such cases came about in response to discrimination against blacks in the first place. For example, it took almost until 1990, some 26 years AFTER the Civil Rights Act of 1964 for state governments like the Alabama State Police to finally begin hiring qualified blacks in meaningful numbers, and even this was due to a court decision where a federal judge, tired of white stonewalling, simply ordered the hiring of qualified blacks, including those who had been turned away for years. This was an ugly solution, but the judge had before given YEARS of leeway for white bosses to voluntarily recruit qualified blacks. As one popular pro-conservative writer notes:</div><span style="color: red;"><span>"</span><span>Alabama, attracted the wrath of the Supreme Court in 1987. In United States v. Paradise, the Alabama State Department of Public Safety had thumbed its nose at a 1970 federal court ruling ordering an end to its systematic discrimination against black state troopers. At the time of that ruling, there was not a single black on the force. Twelve years after the federal court ruling, no black state trooper had been advanced beyond entry level. In response, the federal court ordered racial quotas to end the "pervasive, systematic and obstinate discriminatory exclusion of blacks."</span></span><div><span>--Phil Valentine. 2016. The Conservatives Handbook: Defining the Right Position on Issues from A to Z</span></div><div><br /></div><div>Likewise President Richard Nixon met huge obstructionism and delay when he attempted to persuade some white unions to start complying with basic civil rights laws in the late 1960s. They ignored or stonewalled him to the point that an exasperated Secretary of Labor, George Schulz, finally ordered the unions benefitting from federal construction funds to hire qualified blacks, or the federal money would cease. Where polite appeals for fairness failed, the rough club of withheld funds worked. This was the background of the famous, (or infamous) landmark "affirmative action" Philadelphia Plan, that successfully forced racist white unions to open up previously "reserved" jobs for whites, with important spillover effects to numerous other areas into the 1970s. (See<i> Kevin L. Yuill. 2006. Richard Nixon and the Rise of Affirmative Action</i>.) <br />Other plans followed: See Black DEA Agents discriminated against<i> Segar v. Civiletti 1981;</i> or almost 20 years later the Justice Dept. and black agents agreeing to a $5 million settlement. <i>Potter v. Reno, 1998</i>; and thousands more in the record. And this was just in the public sector where use of government funds raised the bar as far as scrutiny of hiring practices. Black taxpayers had contributed to some of those very same funds, yet they were frozen out of jobs using those monies or parts thereof.</div><div><br /></div><div>Ironically, the legal record shows not simply losses, but many rulings <b>Favorable to white males </b>(See Americans for Effective Law Enforcement, Inc. <a href="https://www.aele.org/law/Digests/empl168.html" style="outline-width: 0px; user-select: auto;" target="_blank"><span style="background-color: #fcff01;"><b>(AELE) Case Law Summaries</b></span> </a>2018 for example ): such as: <br />(a) male firefighters or police suing and <b>winning </b>against such quotas and being subsequently hired/promoted, <br />(b) courts <b>rejecting </b>various "quota" plans that hurt said males, or <br />(c) courts upholding AA plans, just as they have upheld white union AA plans, where such are <b>narrowly tailored </b>to remedying past discrimination- i.e. white women being denied promotion for years in favor of men. <br />This context and history behind why AA plans exist at all is important to remember amid breathless fulminations re "liberals judges" simply decreeing "quotas" out of the blue.

latest blinding insights is that the whole segregation thing wasn’t “really”
about race, but about economic “class.”</b> Such arguments
are being put forward on a passel of right –wing and some libertarian
websites, apparently as a “counter” to said “critical” race theory. Zounds!
Proponents include Paul Craig Roberts, a well educated author who has published
several books, and is he looked up to in the right-wing eco-system.</div><div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p>Here are some excerpts from his article: “Racial
Discrimination Against White Americans Has Been Institutionalized.”</p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p>QUOTE:<br /><span style="color: red;"><b>“The 1896 Supreme Court Plessy
decision, which gave us “separate but equal” is widely considered today to be
incorrect. Legal scholars maintain that the private railroad company violated
the Constitution by separating people in railway cars on the basis of race.
Justice John Marshall Harlan’s dissent–“Our Constitution is color-blind, and
neither knows nor tolerates classes among citizens”–is almost universally
considered correct.</b></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="color: red;"><o:p> </o:p></span><span style="color: red;">How can it be, then, that the same
legal scholars who damn the Plessy decision support the 1896 Supreme Court’s
Plessy reasoning when they uphold the right of private media to divide people
into classes based on belief and to discriminate on the basis of opinion? TV,
print, radio, and social media all discriminate against those who dissent from
the official narratives. If the railway company’s policy was in violation of
the 14th Amendment, most certainly media’s policy of censorship and
“cancelling” is in violation of the 1st Amendment.”</span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> <br /></o:p><b>But this part of Robert's argument, comparing racial
segregation to other types of differentiation is laughable.</b> Just a few examples will expose this nonsense. For one thing, modern democratic countries do nor forbid citizens to own land in a certain area, or force them to live where they don't want to, or force them to use atrocious public accommodations, etc etc merely over a difference of personal or political opinions. Republicans who hold office in a particular city for example do not demand that all Democrats leave town at sundown or forbid them to own land, as was sometimes the case in various "Jim Crow" jurisdictions and "sundown" towns. The analogy between the Jim Crow and mere difference of political opinion is rather ludicrous. Second, the Supreme Court did not use “Plessy reasoning” to decide private media cases.
Roberts fails to even cite the case or evidence in question- a typical pattern
of assorted libertarian and right-wing “warriors” who all too often neglect actual data or evidence where race is involved. Third, private media cases
regarding which political opinion is published by a private entity do not involve
or have a 14<sup>th</sup> Amendment and its massive history revolving around race
behind them. And yet the deep thinkers of these forums,
blogs and websites still pursue the idiotic “<i>Geeze, if we can differentiate on
political opinion, why can’t we legally discriminate based on race?</i>” Really? </p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><b>Roberts then throws in the example of the
segregationist railway in Plessy. It seems that the good railroad folk were not
“really” discriminating based on race but merely “class” – you know first
class, second class and so on. Gosh! Why do those dastardly “SJWs” and
“liberals” have to bring in race at all?<o:p></o:p></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Sez Robert- QUOTE:</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><o:p> </o:p><span style="color: red;">“ The same railway company that

class separation? Why does one get legal remedy but not the other?”</span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p>Now the above is a really deep question. Apparently Roberts
is unaware that in the history of US railroads, blacks did indeed utilize
“class” distinctions and bought first class tickets to various places. What
happened is that they were usually thrown out of the higher classes when trains reached segregated jurisdictions, or at the whim of conductors per that railway's policy or not, and into the
third tier or generously, second tier, “negro accommodations.” These came complete with overcrowded cars, malfunctioning toilets (if any), toxic
enviro hazards like open cars filled with toxic soot and smoke, and dangerous
train locations- like right behind the engine- sacrificial buffers when train
collisions happened (as they too often did back in the day). And best of all, the white railroads made a
profit on the deal. Negroes who paid for a higher class were thrown into the
lower class, but the white railway got to keep the negro's first class fare. Sweet! Studies such as <i><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">Traveling Black: A Story of Race and

<p class="MsoNormal">Let’s look at a typical case, distinguished only by the fact
that the black victim had the time and money and stature to fight back to a high level. <span style="color: black;">In a 1937 case that went all the way to the Supreme Court, a black train passenger who had paid full first-class fare, was forced
under threat of arrest to vacate his comfortable </span><st1:place><span style="color: black;">Pullman</span></st1:place><span style="color: black;"> berth
and move to second-rate black “Jim Crow” accommodation when the train crossed
into </span><st1:state><st1:place><span style="color: black;">Arkansas</span></st1:place></st1:state><span style="color: black;">. Ejection of the negro opened up a new berth that could be
sold to whites, but the railroad still kept the man’s full-ride money while
shifting him to a venue with less service and amenities. The Court ruled a
violation of the Interstate Commerce Act in that the train company (Illinois
Central and Rock Island Railroads) failed to provide equal amenities to the
black man once he had been threatened and relocated in </span><st1:state><st1:place><span style="color: black;">Arkansas</span></st1:place></st1:state><span style="color: black;">. <br /></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgm_tg-LcOiolHbIrgllB_WS6azrzDpZiaRlkKnHGLTxlh2kZfAzA3XPcQqPXBqmtevm5CEFkPJp4mQq7J3Rz5xeySLS_-WpfbHnDi6q7-7hrAJ5L3PEXaodPDBZHXk3-chOLQcUc9sM6OXmdhkj-07emGeMmam9SDTwCw3J3uV02xKVtKepu5Yzyh9Ow/s231/fa_congressman_arthurmitchell.jpg" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="231" data-original-width="211" height="200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgm_tg-LcOiolHbIrgllB_WS6azrzDpZiaRlkKnHGLTxlh2kZfAzA3XPcQqPXBqmtevm5CEFkPJp4mQq7J3Rz5xeySLS_-WpfbHnDi6q7-7hrAJ5L3PEXaodPDBZHXk3-chOLQcUc9sM6OXmdhkj-07emGeMmam9SDTwCw3J3uV02xKVtKepu5Yzyh9Ow/w183-h200/fa_congressman_arthurmitchell.jpg" width="183" /></a></div><p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: black;"><o:p> </o:p></span>In practical terms however this
“victory” was a farce since almost nowhere in the Jim Crow south were black and
white facilities anywhere “equal.” And who was this hapless negro? He turned
out to be Congressman Arthur Mitchell, the only black member of Congress at the
time, which explains how he had the resources to bring such a lawsuit. But even
he, one of the “quality folk” was banished to the “Jim Crow” sector. Said the white conductor eloquently “<i>It
don’t make a damn bit of difference who you are—as long as you a nigger you
can’t ride in this car.</i>”</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: black;"><o:p> </o:p></span>The “colored” sections typically
were not air-conditioned or well ventilated, were poorly partitioned (even
white smokers had a partition, but not vice versa for blacks in the 'white'
section). The "colored" area often had toilets that were malfunctioning, and no wash basins, soap,
towels or running water save some basics in the ‘colored’ women's section.
Berths for whites by contrast were well appointed, air conditioned, with hot
and cold running water, soap, towels, flushable toilets and coming with full
use of the dining car and observation-parlor coach. In an initial filing with
the ICC, the Negro’s complaint was dismissed with the finding that his
treatment was not unjust or unduly bad. An appeals court likewise dismissed
Mitchell’s case, holding that the small number of first class negro passengers
justified an "occasional discrimination against them because of their
race." <span style="color: #eeeeee;">nilevalleypeoples</span></p>

Court, presenting the oral arguments himself before that august white body in
1941. It ruled that the issue was not segregation but (a fictitious) “equal
treatment,” and remanded the case back down for further proceedings after 4
years of litigation. Mitchell eventually reached an out-of-court settlement
with the railroad, but his political career was effectively over, having
angered the white political establishment for his temerity in bringing such a
high-profile suit. It took until 1956, for the ICC to end segregation on
interstate transportation, (and that ruling was often ignored in most of the
white south until the Civil Rights Act of 1964), and it was not until 25 years
later in 1973, that the State of Arkansas finally got around to repealing its
segregation law of 1891, under which Mitchell was ejected.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: black;"><o:p> </o:p></span>It should also be noted here that contrary
to libertarian mantra of supposed “profits lost” due to discrimination, the incident (until black
pushback) actually represented a nice bonus for the white company. It would get
to keep the black congressman’s first class money for a Pullman sleeper, even
as he was pushed into the lower-grade “colored” tier, and could resell his
“white” berth for the full-ride price. A “colored” berth for example worth say
$30 could be occupied by a rejected African-American who had initially paid $150 for first class. Nice! (<i>See Mitchell v.
United States et al., 313 </i><st1:country-region><st1:place><i>U.S.</i></st1:place></st1:country-region><i> 80 (1941</i>).</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: black;"><o:p> </o:p></span>A long list of other court cases
tell much the same tale. (<i>See Martha Biondi 2003. To Stand and Fight.</i>)
Oh and did I mention that the conservative courts that heard the case did not
consider Robert’s Disney-like claim about “class” but gasp, dealt with the dreaded

<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p>Pause,.. struggle to control a wry smile.. Ah yes, the old
“personal race choice” justification? But it never seems to have occurred to
deep thinker Roberts (a published author you know!) and those like him, that buses, trains or streetcars have long been recognized as COMMON CARRIERS, meaning they have to serve ALL the public. On these common carriers, white people were perfectly free to be “<i>with their own kind</i>.” All they had to do was ignore the “troubling” presence of Congressman Mitchell, or move to another seat so they would not have to sit near blacks- that way they could be in pristine white purity in their own seats or corners, "<i>with their own kind</i>." Meanwhile, Mitchell, or other blacks who traveled with companions or families were perfectly free to stay “with their own kind” in their own seats, for which they paid full fare. </p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: #2b00fe;"><span>Robert's argument is a typical libertarian (or perhaps neo-segregationist) one that attempts to minimize or dismiss segregation as a matter of mere personal "choice" or preference. But in the REAL world segregation was anything but innocuous "choice."</span> </span><span style="color: #0c343d;">I</span>t<span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"> included a brutal range: from black women
assaulted and thrown off streetcars and buses, to the brutal convict system of
semi-slavery put in place by whites after the civil war, to violent "white-cappers" ordering blacks deemed "too" prosperous out of "sundown" towns or their homes, to fully paid up black
airline passengers ordered off planes to make room for white passengers in the
1950s, to married couples or individuals banished from their home state for decades due to “miscegenation”
laws. In most areas of life blacks were not "(ala Milton Friedman) "free to choose" to “avoid” would-be “rednecks.” If you were black, humiliation and disadvantage was shoved in your face every day. For example, if you were black then
groupings of banks and mortgage lenders denied you financing except in overcrowded “redlined” ghetto areas, and smiling real estate agents “steered” you to these “approved”
zones. </span> And like Mitchell blacks were sometimes FORCED into inferior 2<sup>nd</sup> or 3<sup>rd</sup> tier venues after having paid for first “class.” They didn’t get to “choose” what "kind" they preferred, <span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">There has never been an “opt out” for black people</span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgoauuLE1eCMDpdVZoiKVTmh4g4LiiLuPkW5j5sJrTPmGqQ1ze5VP0hnG1laQaxLcEheen7OxoPvdur1y3o7FAf_maGS-NwuhGvl4sHrRlDkqPAWvPzMb6d7G2oVdHDsYJB1Hm8WX5aFAEzSm_D856eu42p3YJ_W5UnD4ByXMR8jcKCrYzsIrCguUpJ3A/s250/disintruder.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="165" data-original-width="250" height="165" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgoauuLE1eCMDpdVZoiKVTmh4g4LiiLuPkW5j5sJrTPmGqQ1ze5VP0hnG1laQaxLcEheen7OxoPvdur1y3o7FAf_maGS-NwuhGvl4sHrRlDkqPAWvPzMb6d7G2oVdHDsYJB1Hm8WX5aFAEzSm_D856eu42p3YJ_W5UnD4ByXMR8jcKCrYzsIrCguUpJ3A/s1600/disintruder.jpg" width="250" /></a></div><p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><u><br />Intrusion confusion:</u> These cases further highlight another
lament for discrimination- even used sometimes by black conservatives like Thomas Sowell hero,
columnist George Schuyler, and countless biased whites, north and south: the
propaganda construct of blacks seeking to “<b>intrude</b>” where they "were not wanted." But time and again blacks sought no “intrusion” to mix with whites, only <b>normal human treatment </b>and peace to go about their business. First-come-first serve
seating on a common transportation carrier for example is <b>normal business
</b>having nothing to do with “intruding” into white “society.” They simply wanted to go from point A to point B
using normal facilities every other passenger used. Using a restaurant inside a publicly owned bus, train or airline terminal is <b>normal </b>for travelers
on a common carrier and has nothing to do with “<b>intrusion</b>” or any potential
lead-on to “dangerous” equality or interracial sexual “miscegenation.” Whites
were and are still free to establish exclusively white private clubs and charter transports, or were free to huddle in their own corner of common carrier establishments in pristine racial
purity. The average black man just wanted to eat his hamburger and drink his
coffee in peace, just like everybody else, before moving on. Whether he was “socially equal” to or was "liked" by nearby white people is/was irrelevant. </p><p class="MsoNormal">Finally, far from black “<b>intrusion</b>” disrupting the “natural choice” of people
to segregate themselves, time and again it was whites who insisted on
“<b>intruding</b>” among blacks even after said whites had first set up the fraudulent “separate but
equal” formula. Whites insisted blacks stay “in their own areas” yet kept
“intruding” their white businesses, institutions and union job demands into
“colored” areas,” For example when white construction unions found business slow they "intruded" into "colored" areas to greedily hog any jobs to be found there as well. It was terrorist white gangs of “whitecappers” that kept
“intruding” into and on black areas and privately owned or rented black land to
rob, murder and drive away blacks they deemed “too” prosperous. </p><p class="MsoNormal">As far as openly legal Jim Crow the pattern repeats itself. Whites mandated "separate but equal," but continually kept "<b>intruding</b>" across the same "color line" they had set up, when it was convenient or profitable for them. On bus, train or streetcar, whites continually "intruded" into the "colored" areas when the white one was filled so they would not be inconvenienced by having to stand. No similar liberty was given to blacks however. On the railroads, whites who wanted to smoke were sometimes banished to the "colored" train cars where they could puff toxic substances to their heart's content, among black folks, who had no option to refuse. Again, "color bar" rules were fine, as long as they did not inconvenience whites. If there was a problem, the rules was changed or selectively enforced. </p><p class="MsoNormal">Likewise it was the
cynical collaboration between private white landlords and other entities and
public officials that imposed the brutal and unjust convict “leasing” system –
a great source of cheap captive labor for white corporations and land owners- that “intruded” into the
lives of tens of thousands of black men, (and even women and children), with devastating effects for them and
their families. It was whites, from private realtors or banks, to public
officials that kept “intruding” to blockade black liberty to transact in
housing markets, denying blacks (and whites willing to transact) the very same
“freedom of choice” they touted as some sort of beneficent universal principle,
but one they often did not follow, if blacks were involved. Far from, blacks "intruding" into this and that, the main "intrusions" on the line of race involved white people.</p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"><br /></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p>Yassuh! But one jarring note: As late as the 1950s, US
airlines did not only segregate by class, they also segregated by race. If blacks wanted to take an airline trip for example, it
was not simply a matter of “choosing” to “avoid” “redneck” airlines. All the
major carriers like American Airlines discriminated against black passengers in
seat assignments, “bumped” them to make room for white passengers, pretextually
ordered them off planes, and a host of other nonsense. American Airlines in the
1950s concealed such practices by secretly “coding” black passengers with a
special “E111” code that only became public when it fired a Jewish employee who
questioned the practice. <st1:state><st1:place>New

officials generously offered the black women “coach” fare onward, even though they
had paid full first-class fare to begin with. Notice the pattern seen earlier
in the railway cases- the blacks were offered less than they had already paid
for, with white corporations or operatives pocketing the difference. Fitzgerald
rejected this nonsense and later sued, and won a settlement of $7500, worth

Elsewhere he laments how unfair it is for black people to be hired as cops, and asserts that unneeded "affirmative action" is the cause. Let's look at that:</b></div><p class="MsoNormal">Far from a vale of tears, the record shows that whites continually blockaded so called "affirmative action" measures using administrative manipulation, subterfuge, stalling, and brute force legal struggle. Scholarly histories, (such as W. Marvin Dulaney's 1996 "Black Police in America) show the dismal landscape confronting blacks and expose the hollowness of white clams about how "meritorious" they are or have been. </p><p class="MsoNormal">In numerous police departments for example, whites rigged the game for decades, particularly white ethnic groups like the Irish, who used police jobs as sinecures and rewards, hiring friends, friends of friends, relatives and cronies in a cozy system of white privilege. Blacks experienced extensive discrimination. Applicants were diverted or denied. Written tests that blacks passed were routinely ignored to favor white candidates, At times more difficult tests were given to minority candidates. Those that did manage to hop initial hurdles were routinely found themselves described as "nig..." by fellow officers. Black policemen were given the worse assignments, and often exclusively assigned to the worse "nig.." areas. Black officers with years on the job were sometimes denied promotion in favor of less qualified whites. In some departments certain police ranks were closed to blacks- only whites got promoted to them. Blacks had to file lawsuits to force departments to open up those "reserved" ranks, as in the case of Leslie Shaw, the first black police sergeant in Columbus Ohio. </p><p class="MsoNormal">Some of the above conditions described prevailed not merely in hostile Southern jurisdiction but in "liberal" northern ones, such as in San Francisco into the 1970s. In San Francisco as elsewhere whites waged and continue to wage deep bureaucratic warfare against "Affirmative action." When a 1970s lawsuit exposed racist practices for example, whites issued a new civil service eligibility promotion list, creating a huge batch of white captains, a supposedly "non-racial" move design that by design or final result, clogged the promotional pipeline to that rank for years and under senority arrangements, virtually eliminated black candidates. See these and other warfare measures show that far from a vast "swamping" of whites with "affirmative action" said AA has been from its very outset, severely limited and fought on every hand, contradicting the white propaganda narrative of mass "suffering" due to "quotas for blacks." See also Sanders and COhen, 2013, The Zebra Murders in San Francisco below: QUOTE:</p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: red;">"In 1973, only one man who wasn’t Irish had a rank of captain or higher in the SFPD: Charlie Barca. Barca was Italian, and as captain of inspectors he oversaw all the inspector bureaus, including Homicide. But that was it. Barca was the only member of the department’s top brass who wasn’t Irish American... From the moment the suit was filed, it caused a huge backlash among the largely Irish and entirely white old-boy network that controlled the SFPD. .. But the reaction that unnerved Sanders and Gilford the most was the personal backlash from fellow officers, whose rancor and bigotry turned to hate .. The reaction to the ruling underscored what Sanders had known implicitly the moment he entered the SFPD: </span><span>the white Irish old-boys’ network ran the department with two sets of rules. White cops lived by one, but imposed another on black cops. The rules weren’t written; they were understood. As blacks lobbied for more power in the department, this double standard became starker</span><span style="color: red;"> than ever.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span>One of the SFPD’s most deceitful ploys was their attempt to pad the number of minority officers on their rolls, which they did by fabricating ethnic backgrounds for some cops.</span><span style="color: red;"> In the department’s initial count of minorities, prior to the preliminary ruling, there were only three Native Americans on the force. As the appeals process began, that number somehow swelled to sixty-three..... So Gnaizda told Peckham that he wanted the EEOC to serve as arbiter and have the ["Native American"] officers in question appear before the EEOC and affirm that they were, in fact, Native American. Peckham agreed, with the stipulation that not coming in would be a tacit admission that the officer was not Native American. Out of the mythical sixty-three, only nine showed up at the EEOC...</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: red;">Yet as skillful as the OFJ’s defense was, Gnaizda and Hastie could not halt the city’s Civil Service Commission from circumventing everything they had gained in court. One of the most important parts of the lawsuit, and one that could ultimately have the most wide-ranging impact on police departments across the country, was the assertion that the whole promotion process was slanted against minorities. When it came to changing the SFPD, promotions were the ultimate battleground... </span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span>Although the exams gave the promotion process a veneer of fairness, the truth was just the opposite. Eventually it was proven that some of the tests given to minorities were statistically more difficult than those given to whites.</span><span style="color: red;"> More important than the tests, though, was the issue of seniority, and the way it was played to determine who was on track to become part of the brass.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: red;">At the time of the OFJ lawsuit, no black officer had yet achieved the seniority to become eligible to take the lieutenant’s exam. </span><span>In fact, under the current system, it would be years before any black could take the exam and years more before any might be promoted to lieutenant.</span><span style="color: red;"> Moreover, in a classic instance of catch-22, no blacks could even begin the process of becoming eligible for the captain’s exam until they had already made lieutenant. And the obstacles didn’t end there. </span><span>Promotions occurred only when there were openings, which were filled from a list of those who had passed the exams most recently in chronological order. So even if a black did pass the lieutenant’s exam, he would have to wait for every single white officer ahead of him to make lieutenant before he even had a shot</span><span style="color: red;">. </span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: red;">Gnaizda surmised that if the system in place at the time of the lawsuit were allowed to remain,</span><span> it would be over twenty-five years before an African American could make captain,</span><span style="color: red;"> meaning that no matter what the lawsuit achieved with respect to recruits, the ruling clique of the SFPD would remain white for at least another generation.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: red;">Knowing this, Gnaizda and Hastie tried to persuade the judge to enjoin the Civil Service Commission from making any promotions until the courts could decide the issue. Peckham, however, ignored their pleas, and the commission was permitted to forge ahead and fill the ranks of lieutenant and captain for years to come, enabling the all-white men’s club that ruled the department to retain the upper hand."</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: red;">-- Prentice Earl Sanders, Ben Cohen. 2011. he Zebra Murders: A Season of Killing, Racial Madness and Civil Rights. p. 193-196</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p>The reader is thus left scratching his head.

I had thought that The Trump would take bit of time to rebuild influence, if indeed he did, as others like Lynn Cheney stepped up to take his place. But the Trumpers have been making significant strides at state and local level for a comeback. This means they may show big at the midterm elections, which essentially will rollback Dem numbers and influence in Congress. So Biden and the boys have been scrambling to push through everything they can. They have a very short window of opportunity. Thus the full court press on a host of issues, including redmeat items the GOP will exploit to the max: race and other social issues like transgenderism in schools and women's sports, as part of the left-wing agenda.</div><div><br /></div><div>Biden hopes to maximize black turnout by pumping up symbolic issues blacks might like, (Junteenth Holiday) for example, though there was no great push among blacks for such a holiday. Likewise "Black Lives Matter" anti-police mobilization is designed to keep race highly visible in the media.. The idea is to pump up black turnout at the midterms in key races. This however can be a double edged sword. Right-wingers have seized on the "race card" to gin up a "Critical Race Theory" bogeyman as part of a culture war wedge attack. The black bogeyman-white backlash frame has paid off countless times in the past for the right, and may do so yet again. Likewise BLM excesses and "noisy negro" visibility may well play into Trumper hands in mobilizing their base. They question is whose "base" will generate enough turnout in key areas? Stay tuned..</div><div><br /><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>UPDATE 11/7/20<br /><br /></div><div>Looks like its a wrap. The Don is done. <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div></div><div>But one final bonus of a Biden administration for Republicans: Biden is not a hardcore ideologue. He style is that of a deal-maker, with moderate flavor, "reaching across the aisle." This spells bad news for leftist progressives and groups including BLM and <a href="https://news.yahoo.com/aoc-progressives-push-back-against-133709755.html">Ocasio-Cortez</a>, who expect radical or sweeping action. A recent <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2020/11/09/us/politics/democratic-party-joe-biden.html" target="_blank">article </a>from the NYT echoes the case- dissatisfaction among liberals and progressives over "go slow Joe." Yet <a href="https://news.yahoo.com/aoc-progressives-push-back-against-133709755.html" target="_blank">another </a> article notes some Dem moderates lamenting progressive/leftist rhetoric that they claim led to sub-par performance in the 2020 elections. QUOTE:</div><div><br /></div><span style="color: red;">"A number of progressive House Democrats are pushing back against moderates’ claims that progressive policies and messaging are the reason for the party’s subpar performance in last week’s election. In a call last week, House Democrats pointed fingers, trading blame for the party having lost a number of House seats, during which Representative Abigail Spanberger (D., Va.) said, “No one should say ‘defund the police’ ever again” or the party would get “torn apart” in 2022.”</span><div><p style="background-color: white; color: #1d2228; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 1.154em; margin: 0px 0px 0.8em;"><br /></p></div><div>But while Biden will be under pressure from the left, he likely will not <b>strongly </b>push certain culture war issues, or will go slower, compared to say, the more relentless Hilary. Furthermore, Kamala Harris is in a spot where she cannot push much either. Old Dem hand Willie Brown told Harris previously, that she should refuse the VP offer and instead angle for Attorney General in a Biden Administration, where she could help along substantial change. But she is stuck in the relatively powerless VP chair. For Repubs, it could have been a lot worse. If the Dems <b>had </b>to have a win, better they have it <b>NOW</b>, under a slower-paced, somewhat moderate Biden, it could be argued, as compared to a younger, more relentless, and radical Democrat leader.</div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhBph-avZp4fj2fFTbf7YScrCJlu0LqXbCARQhpe2fmkEE7O_SJg7BPHy1YuFf5iZZFRfFTq7GqPOrr9Vk7anNNgpi60_4TSfWWsV63a8Edw0OZQm_O-Ii-5Rp7kUw5Iv2fpuHRj9vt5eCy/s681/trump_and_tchalla_brokanda.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="380" data-original-width="681" height="224" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhBph-avZp4fj2fFTbf7YScrCJlu0LqXbCARQhpe2fmkEE7O_SJg7BPHy1YuFf5iZZFRfFTq7GqPOrr9Vk7anNNgpi60_4TSfWWsV63a8Edw0OZQm_O-Ii-5Rp7kUw5Iv2fpuHRj9vt5eCy/w400-h224/trump_and_tchalla_brokanda.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br /><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>11/4/20:</div>As of this writing the election count grinds on with Biden holding the edge. If the map below is correct, a Biden win in any of the remaining states (assuming the prelim tallies are true) means victory. The Don needs to win all 4 remaining states, Pennsylvania, Georgia, North Carolina and Nevada. The math is daunting, but still doable as of this writing. Various recount challenges may complicate the layout above. Many Dems known by this writer boldly predicted a landslide based on polling 3 months or even 2 months ago- it was supposed to be a cakewalk. Hasn't turned out that way. <div><br /></div><div>Based on the numbers and odds to this point, a Biden win seems increasingly more probable, though the door is still open. This brings up some earlier points raised in <a href="https://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2020/04/would-biden-win-be-any-big-loss-for.html" target="_blank">April</a>. If Biden wins, would it be the apocalyptic event so feared by assorted Republicans'? Not quite I say pilgrim. Let's recap.</div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="text-align: left;">The Atlantic article referenced below notes that </span><b style="text-align: left;">if Biden wins he would have a <span style="color: blue;"><a href="https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2020/04/biden-will-inherit-post-pandemic-world/609853/" target="_blank">huge amount of heavy lifting</a></span> </b><span style="text-align: left;">to do in a post-Corona/Covid America. Like so:</span></div><br /><span style="color: red;">"If Joe Biden wins the election in November, he will likely be sworn in—perhaps virtually—under the most challenging circumstances since Harry Truman became president in 1945. The country will probably be in the end stages of a brutal pandemic and faced with the worst economy since the Great Depression. The Treasury will be significantly depleted. Millions of people will have lost loved ones, their jobs, much of their net worth..</span><br /><span style="color: red;"><br />Biden’s first and toughest challenge will be to address the badly frayed governance compact, in which citizens expect and trust the government to deliver on essential services. . </span><br /><span style="color: red;"></span><br /><span style="color: red;">Biden’s second herculean task will be resurrecting the national economy. By January 2021, the United States will likely have tried numerous unprecedented fiscal and Fed efforts to keep the faint pulse of the national economy going, but unemployment will still be in the double digits and entire industries will remain decimated. With the end finally in sight, the government will need to urgently figure out how to get as many businesses as possible up and running and people back to work. This effort would be challenging in the best of times, but the pandemic likely will have changed the very nature of work in America. A simple restart is not possible.</span><br /><span style="color: red;"></span><br /><span style="color: red;">The third challenge is international. .. in 2021, a number of crucial problems must be addressed collectively. How can the vaccine be distributed globally, at a reasonable cost, and to those who need it most? How can governments work together to put in place an international architecture of surveillance, rapid response, and a scalable industrial base for crucial medical supplies so everyone is prepared for the next pandemic? As governments rebuild their national economies and focus on restoring their domestic industries, how do they do so in a way that also creates a healthy global economy that works to everyone’s benefit? And, as the world opens back up, how can countries deal with the geopolitical crises that will inevitably emerge from this period? .. This leads to the most vexing post-coronavirus challenge: how to manage the China dimension. China’s failure to be honest about COVID-19 increased the risks to the rest of the world, its pressure on the World Health Organization compromised a vital international institution when people needed it most, and its propaganda war to place the blame on the United States amounted to the throwing of a gauntlet in a superpower competition.."</span><br /><span style="color: red;"></span><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div>So in a dismal post-Covid landscape what are the pluses for Republicans'? <br /><br />1-- <b>Primary Trump mission was accomplished- stop Hilary, rollback Obama.</b> </div><div>2-- <b>Sit back and snipe while Dems struggle. </b><br />3- <b>The Covid checkmate would stymie rash Democrat action</b></div><div>4-- <b>Lucrative Biden gaffes and thus bashing opportunities.</b> <br />5-- <b>Supremes lock-in agenda with newest Justice, Amy Barrett.<br />6-- Slower pace Biden admin compared to a more relentless Dem leader</b></div><div><br /></div><div>The finally outcomes will take shape in the next few days and months.</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjAcCopigPD8y_rWyFFGbMPdnXjNYLEeHDqZA8Ge4ZngR00bg5YHAQC7IZxRkZFvSDj3Q5mIJDgT6_TWEFOtCWrz6DqvdO0B8RbrkzqnJAWcEFy4-sD3gvoQKrWXGlxASAE6q3murCdGB4N/s1600/fraudster_rolemodels_smith_bennett_championcain.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="622" data-original-width="918" height="270" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjAcCopigPD8y_rWyFFGbMPdnXjNYLEeHDqZA8Ge4ZngR00bg5YHAQC7IZxRkZFvSDj3Q5mIJDgT6_TWEFOtCWrz6DqvdO0B8RbrkzqnJAWcEFy4-sD3gvoQKrWXGlxASAE6q3murCdGB4N/s400/fraudster_rolemodels_smith_bennett_championcain.jpg" width="400" /></a><br /><b></b><br /><b>LINKS TO OTHER POSTS:</b><br /><br /><a href="https://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2020/11/teflon-dons-coating-in-trouble-can-he.html" target="_blank">Teflon Don finally fades</a></div><div>https://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2020/11/teflon-dons-coating-in-trouble-can-he.html<br /><br /></div><div><a href="https://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2020/06/teflon-don-may-see-fulsome-benefits.html" target="_blank">The Teflon Don may reap benefit from Floyd protest violence and looting</a><br />https://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2020/06/teflon-don-may-see-fulsome-benefits.html<br /><b><br /></b><a href="https://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2020/05/the-teflon-don-covid-era-approval.html" target="_blank">The Teflon Don- Covid-era approval rating may signal November success</a> <b><br /></b>https://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2020/05/the-teflon-don-covid-era-approval.html</div><div><br /><a href="https://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2020/04/would-biden-win-be-any-big-loss-for.html" target="_blank">Would a Biden win be any big loss for Republicans?</a><br />https://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2020/04/would-biden-win-be-any-big-loss-for.html<br /><br /><a href="https://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2019/01/tchallas-wakanda-first-philosophy-looks.html" target="_blank">Tchalla's "Wakanda First" philosophy looks a bit like Donald Trump's "America First" approach</a><br />https://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2019/01/tchallas-wakanda-first-philosophy-looks.html<br /><br /><a href="https://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2019/01/blog-post.html" target="_blank">Significant EEOC Race-Color Cases- Covering Private and Federal Sectors</a> <br />https://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2019/01/blog-post.html<br /><br /><a href="http://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2018/06/asiarate-lawsuit-against-harvard-shows.html" target="_blank">'AsiaRate' Lawsuit against Harvard shows dirty little secret- white quotas used at elite universities</a><br />http://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2018/06/asiarate-lawsuit-against-harvard-shows.html<br /><br /><a href="http://nationalist%20organizations%20step%20up%20recruitment/" target="_blank">Some gays find welcome home in the 'alt-right' as nationalist organizations step up recruitment</a><br />http://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2018/05/some-gays-find-welcome-home-in-alt.html<br /><br /><a href="http://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2017/07/racial-discrimination-is-alive-and.html" target="_blank">Racial discrimination is alive and kicking in employment, housing and credit markets</a><b><br /></b>http://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2017/07/racial-discrimination-is-alive-and.html <br /><br /><a href="http://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2017/07/sowell-3-new-data-shows-backward.html" target="_blank">Sowell 3- new data shows backward tropical evolution?

By contrast persons in the tiny (and nebulous) "Black Identity Terrorists" classification enjoys no such numbers, network strength or notoriety, but the classification enables the establishment to set the stage for extensive surveillance, monitoring, or infiltration of virtually anyone "associated with" the targeted groups. Interestingly, most extremist killings of US law enforcement officers are not by "left-wing ANTIFA" or dangerous "black extremists" or "black militants" but by groups with white right-wing connections.<br />

Most people arrested are local area or region. But it is also undeniable that other elements are at work.

And some news reports note the presence of well organized, shadowy white operatives in various protests. They are canny, and come and go in flexible small groups, not the relatively static targets like local activists. They come equipped with shields, knee pads, helmets, masks and bottles of milk to counterattack tear gas and pepper spray. QUOTE:</div>

Trailed by designated "medics" with red crosses taped to their clothes, these groups head straight for the front lines of the conflict. Night after night in this ravaged city, these small groups do battle with police and the National Guard, kicking away tear gas canisters and throwing back foam-rubber projects fired at them. Around them, fires break out. Windows are smashed. Parked cars destroyed. USA TODAY reporters have witnessed the groups on multiple nights, in multiple locations. Sometimes they threaten those journalists who photograph them destroying property."</span></i><br />

<b>3) Scammers. </b>One of the largest "BLM" groups was a fake front- set up by a white operative. The fake group garnered 700,000 followers, and its fiery "activism" convinced many to pony up cash donations. Aside from operatives in the shadows getting paid, the scam had the happy effect of diverting donations from real activist organizations. Sweet! Even the Kremlin is in on the deal.. In another case reported by CNN in October 2018-, BlackMattersUS and BlackFist – online groups that offered support to activists – were found to have been created by the Internet Research Agency. This company was outed as a Russian troll farm that employed hundreds of people to post pro-Kremlin propaganda using fake identities..."</div>

In one protest a mysterious white "umbrella man" suddenly appeared and began to break store windows, shocking local activists. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qv-O4rnUToU<br />
According to reporting in the Atlanta Journal-Constitution:<br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;"><i>“The man’s actions were so odd that other rioters in the area paused their own protests to call him out and began filming. “Are you a f—ing cop?” someone else can be heard yelling to the man as he disappeared from view.”</i></span><br />

<b>Objective of SOME of the above? Undermine genuine white (and non-white) sympathy, support and reform action.</b> All of the above of course, and various narratives of "outside agitators" have the objective of delegitimizing the central cause of the Floyd affair, and to discredit the millions of genuine people who are disgusted by police misconduct and the continued corruption of the criminal justice system and its unions to protect such. It is clear why. Blacks of course know the deal, but the killing of Floyd seems to have struck a chord with many whites. Whether this will provide impetus for lasting reform remains to be seen. </div>

This is why prosecutors and managers, time and time again, knowing of the most egregious behavior, will still continue to stonewall, hide, lie and manipulate to protect the system and its agents. Here for example is a story about incriminating evidence <a href="https://gothamist.com/news/mount-vernon-police-tapes-innocent-people-were-framed" target="_blank">planted</a> on innocent people.

Union protection is valid in employment but unfortunately it also contributes to why so-called "bad apples" remain on the job. These "apples" are not an aberration, but people protected by the system. Union contracts in some places for example stipulate a strong set of rights scarcely enjoyed by the ordinary citizen, or even criminal defendant, including a 48-hour grace period before being interviewed in any case, and per one news <a href="https://news.yahoo.com/floyd-killing-shows-police-unions-070003461.html" target="_blank">article</a>: "<i>any disciplinary action that does not result in punishment must be
removed from an officer’s record. Even in cases where an officer is
fired for misconduct, the agreement requires an appeals process that
frequently leads to reinstatement,
especially if the investigating agency has committed procedural errors.
Police collective bargaining agreements, in short, insulate cops from
discipline</i>."

Media announcements of bad officers being fired or suspended are too often a <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/graphics/2017/investigations/police-fired-rehired/?itid=lk_inline_manual_25&itid=lk_inline_manual_13" target="_blank">revolving door appeals</a> processes that put "bad apples" back on the job.

This manifests itself most starkly where race and poverty are involved. But if all policemen became black, the same GENERAL pattern would hold, just as it does in black-run countries like <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/world/2016/nov/23/jamaica-police-killings-amnesty-report" target="_blank">Jamaica</a>. Obviously there would be some differences in the US racial context, such as more oppressive white racist regimes. The general pattern of the state and its agents covering and manipulating in self-protection, means fixes will only go so far. So while some reforms can be made, like getting rid of unfair "stop and frisk" practices, or ticket quotas, or using body cams, or better training, it is up to citizens to know their rights and to protect themselves. This includes avoidance of activities than draw law enforcement attention. </div>

<b>Bitter pills:</b> For blacks, who have been hit disproportionately by COVID, and now have to put up with greater Covid infection risk, PLUS rebuild some disrupted neighborhoods, the end results of the affair will be more bitter. The economy in many areas was already in the tank over the Corona virus. Now it is set to get even worse after the looting and destruction. In addition, the anger and fury is a two-way street.

If true, a desire for harsh measures might be carried over after the tear gas settles. This was the scenario in the 1960s when the FBI and local police regimes stepped up disinformation, surveillance, infiltration and repression of local activists and citizenry. But in other cases, the looting, disorder and destruction called forth a tougher, harsher police response, as politicians demanded stronger action.

This blunt reality may perhaps, in part, be fueling the violent antics of SOME protestors. They sense that once the steam cools down it will be business as usual in the criminal justice machine. No endorsement is made of some tactics, but indifference is a blunt reality, despite what may be great INDIVIDUAL sympathy once a stark example like Floyd occurs. Says Dubois:</div>

<i><span style="color: red;">"The great mass of Americans are, however, merely representatives of average humanity. They muddle along with their own affairs and scarcely can be expected to take seriously the affairs of strangers or people whom they partly fear and partly despise...<br />For many years it was the theory of most Negro leaders that this attitude was the insensibility of ignorance and inexperience, that white America did not know of or realize the continuing plight of the Negro. Accordingly, for the last two decades, we have striven by book and periodical, by speech and appeal, by various dramatic methods of agitation, to put the essential facts before the American people. Today there can be no doubt that [white] Americans know the facts; and yet they remain for the most part indifferent and unmoved."<br />--WEB Dubois (1934) W.E.B.

But also high up in the indifference sweepstakes, is the level of indifference shown by black <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5qHmdjvUTaw" target="_blank">black looters</a>- who didn't care much about focused or disciplined protest, didn't care that the negative fallout would once again stereotype black people, didn't care enough about honoring the memory of Floyd- but only in the opportunity for quick loot. all <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZqK60iUXfpE" target="_blank">behavior</a> only encourages the larger society to holler than the police were right after all.

Some protest advocates oft lament white indifference, but there is some <a href="https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/09518398.2017.1312613" target="_blank">evidence</a> that Latinos, one-third of whom voted for Trump in 2016, may also be somewhat indifferent (though not as much as whites) to "black issues" as well, a not surprising scenario since many Latinos aspire to whiteness. Furthermore as argued below, scenes of disorder and mayhem only play into the hands of the politicians who can profitably play on "law and order" and "black menace" memes. Unreported will be instances where demonstrators actually <b><span style="color: #990000;"><a href="https://news.yahoo.com/saved-protesters-protected-lone-cop-231203138.html" target="_blank">HELPED</a></span></b> law enforcement. False flag operators, trolls, and manipulators of all stripes will be exploiting these old games to the hilt during the election cycle. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The greatest "law enforcement" problem facing blacks is not police, but black criminals. Unless a modus vivendi is reached between local communities and reformed police this central problem will not be adequately addressed. The key to that modus vivendi, aside from changes to heavy-handed police tactics in some areas is a hard focus on promoting a greater emphasis on internal community development and discipline- precisely what is needed for self-protection from "the system." All governmental regimes, including the black ones want law-abiding, tax-paying citizens. The closer the black community can approach this, while NOT compromising individual rights or freedom of expression, and while STILL working for reform and justice, the better off it is from "the system." Some seem to find this formula too "middle class." But one of the most successful black organizations, which spares little heated rhetoric, the Nation of Islam is proof of concept as well as a plethora of activist black church and civic organizations. Indeed for decades, the NOI has one the praise of white lawmakers for its disciplined, orderly approach, including the clean-cut efficiency of its adherents. Numerous black churches have long done the same before NOI even appeared. White governmental regimes don't like the pointed protests and pressure such organizations bring, but, in the broader sense, they appreciate the orderly, industrious, yes "industrious" tax-paying citizenry these blacks represent, and want more of it. Thus not only the police need to be reformed, but a moral reformation needs to be underway in local communities as well.<br />
<br />
The items noted above also illustrate that blacks don't need to "change white hearts" to move forward. A common refrain back in the day was that civil rights agitation was useless unless white hearts changed. Proponents had little to say as to when this change would happen, save as a gradualist process extending into a hazy future. Changing hearts in terms of getting white people to feel guilty about racism, recognizing and/or renouncing white privilege etc etc are desirable educational outcomes on some counts, but pale in view of higher priority work to be done. The churches above and NOI prove that blacks don't need to get white people to "like" them, nor does racism need to disappear from white hearts to make positive reforms, and do profitable business and alliances. Farrakhan is disliked by most white people, but he gets their respect on several measures. Likewise many of the civil rights initiatives on the 1960s and 1970s were not based on "loving" white people. Most blacks saw the rhetoric as a tactic, for "non-violent love" was actually a coercive approach that deliberately sought disruption and disorder to promote change. This history calls into question the focus in some quarters with having white people develop pure, sensitive hearts attuned to racism and privilege. Aside from the fact that such tenderly reformed white hearts will not be produced anytime soon, (if at all), such a focus is not at all necessary for black advance.</div>

<span style="color: red;">There is a window of opportunity, before the cameras go elsewhere,</span> before sympathy dissipates, before George Floyd's name recedes into another statistic, for not only workable reform, but for at least the start of a greater focus on that internal community organization and discipline. This is, if nothing else, a self-protective measure.</div>

"The Teflon Don" - a phrase popularized by the media to describe how mob boss John Gotti continually beat the rap brought against him by federal and state authorities. To date, in comparison, Prez Donald Trump has likewise continually skated through a round of rapsheets- emerging seemingly unscathed. Like boss Gotti, Trump goes for a colorful, highly visible controversial style, refusing the low key, corporate management approach taken by other presidents or mafia bigwigs. Nor is a comparison to syndicate bosses necessarily seen as a negative. In fact, some supporters or observers may argue that in his position, given problems, enemies and "sucka MCs" all around, you have to be "<b><a href="https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2019/apr/21/teflon-don-trump-mafia-boss-mueller-report-tony-soprano" target="_blank">gangsta</a></b>"- so to speak. The reader is left to do the relative comparisons.<br />

Polls are all over the place. One May 2020 <b><a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2020/04/30/trump-is-angry-about-his-poll-numbers-he-has-very-good-reason-be/" target="_blank">Washington Post poll</a></b> put Trump as behind Biden in approval. As The Washington Post’s Josh Dawsey reports- QUOTE:<br />
<br />
<span style="color: blue;">"Aides described Trump as in a particularly foul mood last week because of the polling data and news coverage of his administration’s response to the pandemic, according to two of the people familiar with the discussions. In one call, he berated Parscale over the polling data, the two people said. At one point in that call, Trump said he might sue Parscale, though one of the people with knowledge of the comments said he made the remark in jest. News of Trump’s eruption at Parscale was first reported Wednesday by CNN.</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;"></span><br />
<span style="color: blue;">Trump told Parscale that he did not believe the polling that had been presented to him, even though it came from the campaign and the RNC.</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;"><br />“I’m not losing to Joe Biden,” Trump said at one point, both of these people said, adding that the president used profanities throughout the call.</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;"><br />Here’s the thing, though: He is losing to Joe Biden, and Trump didn’t need to look at internal data to see that. Those internal numbers only seem to affirm the crystallizing picture we’re seeing from public polling.</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;"></span><br />
<span style="color: blue;">In the month-plus since Trump saw a momentary bump in his approval rating early in the coronavirus outbreak, we’ve begun to see polling in key states trickle out. And the numbers don’t just suggest that Trump trails in the three all-important battleground states of Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin — they also suggest that he might have to fend Biden off in some states that should be relatively safe. And if he is losing or even just struggling in these kinds of states, Trump will have a very difficult time piecing together the 270 electoral votes he needs.</span><br />

But a <a href="https://www.nationalreview.com/news/trump-approval-rating-hits-all-time-high-in-new-gallup-poll/" target="_blank"><b>National Review piece</b> </a>claims that Trump poll ratings have never been higher. Quote:<br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">"President Trump’s approval rating hit an all-time high in a Gallup survey released on Friday [May 1, 2020], with 49 percent of respondents approving of his performance versus 47 percent disapproving. The results continue a wide swing in polling for Trump, who garnered a 43 percent approval rating two weeks ago.</span><br />
<span style="color: red;"></span><br />
<span style="color: red;">“Most of the variation in Trump’s recent job approval rating is among independents,” Gallup said. “In the current poll, 47% of independents approve of the job he is doing as president, the highest Gallup has measured for the group to date. 93% of Republicans and 8% of Democrats approve of the job Trump is doing.” </span><br />
<span style="color: red;"></span><br />
<span style="color: red;">However, RealClearPolitics polling averages place the president at 44.3 percent approval versus 50.6 percent disapproval as of Friday. Averages of general election polls give Trump 42.1 percent to Joe Biden’s 47.4 percent."</span><br />

HooooKay… So which is it? Well, it doesn't have to be an either - or proposition. What the datasets show is that there has been some convergence in popular support, with Biden having a small edge early in the game. But how will this translate in an election? The "Hilary Steamroller Stumble" of 2016 saw pollsters and the media stumble badly - with some predicting a landslide, and severely underestimating Trump's level of support. It could be countered that Hilary won the popular vote, somewhat of a validation of pre-election prognostications. True, but the popular vote does not win the presidency. A particular demographic or set of states can tip an election. Per one <b><a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2018/03/29/opinion/2016-exit-polls-election.html" target="_blank">analysis</a>,</b> White working class voters (proxy: whites without college degrees), cast 37- 44% of votes in the 2016 election, outnumbering other voting clusters. Trump walked away with about 70% of these in the places where they counted most.<br />
<br />
Which is why The Teflon Don may yet succeed, unless Dems can put together the right combination to win. This will be difficult. The "Covid Crisis" has seen some approval bump for the Don- its overall effect may not be damaging, indeed it may be positive overall, in creating a lot of the media "churn" or "noise" on which Trump thrives. Meanwhile, Biden has his sexual harassment "Grope Gate" scandal to worry about and The Don is relentlessly exploiting that gift. Add in the appeasement Biden has to do to get all the fractious elements of the Dem coalition on board, and the memes, fake news and talking points of the propaganda grist mills are easy to guess. Where have we seen this one befo' pilgrim?<br />
<br />
It could be argued that the luck of a previous Don, John Gotti, eventually ran dry. True, but the last election saw pundits of the media and pollsters overestimate the influence of the college educated set, and underestimate the impact of the key Trump demographic- non college educated lower socio-economic whites, particularly males. Will the same mistake be repeated, again underestimating "The Teflon Don"?<br />

<br />
<br />
Perish the thought pilgrim. Republicans not having seizures if Trump loses? Here's one scenario where a Biden win might be no big deal for Republicans. The Atlantic article referenced below notes that <b>if Biden wins he would have a <span style="color: blue;"><a href="https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2020/04/biden-will-inherit-post-pandemic-world/609853/" target="_blank">huge amount of heavy lifting</a></span> </b>to do in a post-Corona/Covid America. Like so:<br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">"If Joe Biden wins the election in November, he will likely be sworn in—perhaps virtually—under the most challenging circumstances since Harry Truman became president in 1945. The country will probably be in the end stages of a brutal pandemic and faced with the worst economy since the Great Depression. The Treasury will be significantly depleted. Millions of people will have lost loved ones, their jobs, much of their net worth..</span><br />
<span style="color: red;"><br />Biden’s first and toughest challenge will be to address the badly frayed governance compact, in which citizens expect and trust the government to deliver on essential services. . </span><br />
<span style="color: red;"></span><br />
<span style="color: red;">Biden’s second herculean task will be resurrecting the national economy. By January 2021, the United States will likely have tried numerous unprecedented fiscal and Fed efforts to keep the faint pulse of the national economy going, but unemployment will still be in the double digits and entire industries will remain decimated. With the end finally in sight, the government will need to urgently figure out how to get as many businesses as possible up and running and people back to work. This effort would be challenging in the best of times, but the pandemic likely will have changed the very nature of work in America. A simple restart is not possible.</span><br />
<span style="color: red;"></span><br />
<span style="color: red;">The third challenge is international. .. in 2021, a number of crucial problems must be addressed collectively. How can the vaccine be distributed globally, at a reasonable cost, and to those who need it most? How can governments work together to put in place an international architecture of surveillance, rapid response, and a scalable industrial base for crucial medical supplies so everyone is prepared for the next pandemic? As governments rebuild their national economies and focus on restoring their domestic industries, how do they do so in a way that also creates a healthy global economy that works to everyone’s benefit? And, as the world opens back up, how can countries deal with the geopolitical crises that will inevitably emerge from this period? .. This leads to the most vexing post-coronavirus challenge: how to manage the China dimension. China’s failure to be honest about COVID-19 increased the risks to the rest of the world, its pressure on the World Health Organization compromised a vital international institution when people needed it most, and its propaganda war to place the blame on the United States amounted to the throwing of a gauntlet in a superpower competition.."</span><br />
<span style="color: red;"></span><br />

<br />
And so on..<br />
<b>Given the magnitude of the task facing a winning Biden, Republicans could gain a number of possible bonuses, even as they simply kick back and use the next four years sniping and criticizing</b> from the sidelines, exploiting setbacks and errors, and letting the Democrats take the heat (and associated blame) for a blasted post-Corona landscape. What might these bonuses be pilgrim?<br />
<br />
1-- <b>Mission accomplished- stop Hilary, rollback Obama.</b> For one thing, Trump accomplished the biggest Republican desire of the past 12 years- blocking Hilary, who was poised to win. A second bonus is reversing Obamism, which yields a two-fer: a policy rollback, and pumping up the racist parts of the Republican base that never reconciled themselves to the fact of Obama, over and above any of the usual policy disagreements. This "race base" segment plays a key role in expanding and promoting a nasty atmosphere online in numerous forums and venues. An innocent, inconsequential YouTube video with black people these days for example might draw a raft of racial slurs by trolls. Sometimes the venue is more substantial than the usual drive-by anonymous lamers - witness the <span style="color: red;"><b><a href="https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/more-sports/opinion-us-fencer-subjected-to-racist-abuse-on-zoom-call-gets-little-support/ar-BB13cdHw?ocid=spartandhp" target="_blank">racist attacks</a> </b></span>against US fencing champion Nzinga Prescod recently in a public Zoom conference call recently. This is today's coarse online landscape, including fake news, bogus impersonators, and automated propaganda bots infesting social media. To be fair, Republican leaders rightly disavow such things, as do Dems on their end, but they get attention and traffic, and thus will continue.<br />
<br />
2-- <b>Sit back and snipe while Dems struggle. </b>The Democrat winner would take office under a gloomy cloud and may not get much better for the next 4 years. What better position for Republicans? The Dems take all the anger and fallout- wile they sit back, snipe and exploit opportunities to attack.<br />
<br />
3- <b>The Covid checkmate</b>. The post-Covid economy, with fiscal deficits and problems looming large, might in itself put a check on ambitious Dem social spending and initiatives. Free Medicare for example, looks a lot less doable if you have an even higher deficit and money problems to begin with. The same lack of funds will afflict other quixotic crusades such as <a href="https://ados101.com/roadmap-to-reparations" target="_blank">reparations</a> for native-born US blacks only, which were unrealistic to begin with even before the Corona appeared. Both Bernie Sanders and Obama and even M. Dyson oppose such by the way.<br />
<br />
4-- <b>Lucrative Biden bashing opportunities.</b> Joe Biden is not a dumb guy, but he has a stutter and is prone to making public relations gaffes. The next four years would provide rich fodder for right-wing operatives and talking heads to attack and exploit. In addition, Biden would still be dogged by strident voices on the left whom he has to appease, not to mention other PR problems such as sexual harassment allegations. This makes his PR problems even more acute.<br />
<br />
5-- <b>Supremes lock-in.</b> A Trump loss is hardly the end of the world since he has already locked in a more conservative Supreme Court majority that will be around for years after he is gone, possibly decades. This will act as a brake of sorts on some liberal/left agendas.<br />
<br />
6-- <b>White knight to rescue after 4 years.</b> A harsh opening hand, and a gloomy seat at the table, can translate into a negative cloud over 4 years of a Biden Administration. But at the end of the gloomy period, Republicans have a ready-made hero. Up in yonder sky pilgrim! A bird? A plane? Nay, its sterling Mike Pence! In this scenario, with a disgruntled electorate still feeling the post-Covid gloom, Pence emerges to save the day. Gone the gaffes! Gone da gloom! Yon savior announces a firm plan and sunny, can-do optimism, not a litany of problems. "The base" rallies and the rest is history.<br />

<b>Impossible you say pilgrim? Not necessarily. Let's take a historical example- Jimmy Carter</b>- not an exact parallel of course, but illustrating the way a difficult opening hand can help (I did not say it was the "only" factor) undermine a president. <br />
<br />
Carter had a difficult opening hand, despite initial optimism of a change after the divisive years of Nixonism and Watergate. Divisive.. hmm.. interesting parallel.. He took office during a period of "stagflation", as the economy experienced a combination of high inflation and slow economic growth. He also faced the energy crisis and soaring oil prices inherited from the Nixon years. His budgetary policies were not wild "tax and spend liberalism" as hostile right-wing propagandists claim, but centered on taming inflation by reducing deficits and government spending. In November 1978, Carter signed the Revenue Act of 1978, an $18.7 billion tax cut. It was Carter's misfortune that the economic crisis he inherited continued to negatively impact his administration.<br />
<br />
Carter had a much better Civil Rights Record that Ronald Reagan, who opposed every major piece of civil rights legislation: the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Voting Rights Act of 1965, an the Housing Act of 1968. If these measures had not passed, America's odious apartheid state would have remained substantially intact. Reagan also opposed California's Fair Housing law- the<b> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1964_California_Proposition_14#Rumford_Fair_Housing_Act" target="_blank">Rumford Act</a></b>- and supported racially discriminatory housing covenants. As president, Reagan aligned his Justice Department on the side of segregation, supporting the fundamentalist Bob Jones University in its case seeking federal funds for institutions that discriminate on the basis of race. In 1983, when the supreme court decided against Bob Jones, Reagan, under fire from the right wing, hollowed out civil rights enforcement.<br />

<br />
Assorted detractors focus on the Iran fiasco as if that were the only dimension of Carter's foreign policy. But in addition, Carter also greatly expanded military spending and in fact began a military buildup that others were to continue, and take credit for. He was tough on the Soviets' after their Afghanistan invasion, and initiated arming the mujadehim freedom fighters during his administration. And so, in spite of earnest effort, and a record positive in some respects, amid the pall of economic "malaise," and the gloom of a festering foreign policy problem -(Iran's hostages), a politician with a sunny smile and optimistic disposition, who spoke of a "city on a hill," emerged and walked away with an easy victory.<br />
<br />
<br />
Is this an exact parallel? No there are important differences. Nevertheless the general pattern- gloomy economic opening hand and follow-on prospects, difficult foreign policy challenges, earnest effort with some positives, but in the end, not enough, when a cheery challenger showed up. Is this scenario possible? Maybe.. the next few months (and perhaps years), will tell the tale...<br />

Any negativity towards blacks was the result of individual bad actors. This sounds reasonable and what better place to examine the assertion than Atlanta- renown for its genteel approach to race relations, and interracial goodwill, a city indeed "too busy to hate." The Georgia Public Broadcasting history curriculum for schools, linked below, presents a sanitized picture of things in genteel Atlanta, not surprising since corporate sponsors like Coca Cola are big donors. The video narrator notes that there was violence in other cities like Nashville Tennessee during sit-ins, but in genteel Atlanta, the sit-in protesters were not "attacked", and left peacefully when arrested. No mention of being spat upon or kicked as in the recollection of one participant. h<b>ttps://www.gpb.org/georgiastories/stories/atlantas_example</b></div><div>And then, good white leaders like Mayor Hartsfield and the head of Coca cola Robert Woodruff met with cooperative local negroes of goodwill, and even magical Mahtin Luther King Jr, to calm things down and get back on track. But this sanitized picture does not hold when the full historical record is viewed.</div><div><br /></div><div>Here's an excerpt from Harvard Law and History Professor Tomiko Brown-Nagin's excellent 2011 book Courage to Dissent on civil rights struggles in Atlanta. The reader should note the large number of white individuals, groups and entities involved, from restrictive covenant wielding- rock throwing homeowner associations, to banks, to real estate brokers, to mortgage brokers, to groups of white politicians, to friendly terrorists groups like the KKK that firebombed the homes of black families moving into forbidden "reserved" areas of Atlanta. Similar patterns show up throughout the US, as shown in the excellent 5 part series on Charlotte, North Carolina: <br />https://qcnerve.com/black-history-of-charlotte-urban-renewal-development/</div><div><br /></div><div> But such things are all coincidence and individuals right? They can't be systemic.. Why to even discuss such plain unvarnished history is to be indulging in dastardly "critical race theory"..</div><div><br /></div><div><div><span style="color: red;">"W. E. B. Du Bois memorably described black Atlantans’ residential pattern: African Americans were “stretched like a great dumbbell across the city, with one great center in the east and a smaller one in the west, connected by a narrow belt.” Poor and working-class blacks lived in overcrowded, dilapidated slums in undesirable places near cemeteries, industrial plants, floodplains, and railroad lines. A few blacks lived in other sections of the metropolitan area. In some areas, residential segregation did not pervade every neighborhood; some streets had a “checkerboard appearance,” while in others, vacant lots, cemeteries, parks, highways, or other barriers separated black and white homes. Segregation in the city only increased over time. 11</span></div><div><span style="color: red;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="color: red;">"with these additions, blacks now constituted more than 38 percent of the city’s overall population. The living space allotted to blacks—19 of 110 census tracts, or about 10 percent of the city’s land—was far too small to accommodate the combination of migrants, those displaced by economic development, returning veterans, and Atlanta’s existing black population. In addition to being inadequate in number, the black housing stock tended to be old, rundown, and overpriced. Fifty-seven percent of black housing units, or 23,124 of 40,426 dwellings, lacked bathing facilities. Forty-three percent lacked toilets, and 28 percent needed major repairs. 13</span></div><div><span style="color: red;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="color: red;">With nowhere else to go, African Americans sought to move into areas designated for whites or into vacant, undeveloped lands. These attempts were met by a united front of white resistance. The Klan and individual white terrorists used violence to warn blacks against moving into white areas. Urban planners used zoning policies, placement of highways and railroad tracks, and barriers such as cemeteries and parks to contain the black population. White homeowners relied on racially restrictive covenants to prevent the transfer of property in white areas to blacks seeking to buy or rent. And real estate agents and banks used discriminatory lending, block busting, and assorted other practices to prevent black expansion into neighborhoods not designated for black residential use. 14</span></div><div><br /></div><div>--Tomiko Brown-Nagin. 2011.

In 1949, for example, a group of black veterans seeking to develop land for black use followed the pattern established during the 1947 crisis. In a petition to the Fulton County Commissioners of Roads and Revenues, the veterans sought to “secure . . . a suitable tract to develop a subdivision providing homes for Negro Occupancy.” The appropriateness of this particular parcel of land for designation as a subdivision, to be known as the Urban Villa, turned on the fact that it would not disturb the color line. “This tract is most suitable for development,” the veterans wrote in their petition to the commissioners, “because it is surrounded on three boundaries by areas presently owned and/or occupied by Negroes.” Thus, the space would “permit . . . a logical, practical, and economically sound development of the Metropolitan area.“A. E.</span></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><span style="color: red;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="color: red;">Fuller, the Fulton County manager, responded to the petition by noting official awareness of the need for “better housing conditions” for blacks and promising that the commission would consider the proposal carefully. 19 White resistance soon put a hold on the project, however. In a follow-up letter to Fuller, S. S. Robinson, an attorney for Urban Villa Inc., beseeched the commissioners not to reject the petition on the basis of a backlash within the white community ..</span></div><div><span style="color: red;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="color: red;">The exchange between Robinson and city planners over the Urban Villa project illustrated the combination of factors that black leaders faced in their efforts to address the housing crisis. As was true throughout this period, some white administrators expressed concern, but followed with decisions that maintained the status quo in the face of vocal white public opposition to black expansion.</span></div><div><br /></div><div><span style="color: red;">In 1952 the MPC announced its first major development plan, described in a report called Up Ahead . The report proposed several areas for black expansion. The city fathers hoped that the commission’s planning process would keep white terrorist responses to the housing crisis in check. During the 1950s, whites burned, firebombed, and fired weapons into homes recently purchased by blacks in white areas or transitional neighborhoods. This kind of terroristic violence had its intended effect; many blacks decided to resell homes they had purchased in transitional areas to whites and others were scared away from seeking to encroach into “unsuitable” areas. In February of 1956, for instance, Jewell Stewart Jr., an African-American man who had moved into a white neighborhood on a Saturday morning, told an officer investigating an explosion in his front yard that he would sell his house and move “fi rst thing Monday morning.” The group of 500 to 700 “neighbors” who gathered at the scene to protest the sale of homes in the area to blacks no doubt facilitated Stewart’s decision- making process. The next month, March 1956, an African-American family of five literally was “blown out of bed,” but miraculously escaped injury, when a dynamite blast at four in the morning heavily damaged the home they had recently purchased in a white area. The house was knocked off its foundation. Again, white onlookers crowded around as the black family left the neighborhood. 25</span></div><div><span style="color: red;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="color: red;">The white observers on the scenes of these crimes may have been members of organized efforts to beat back black residential expansion. A number of white “civic clubs” bent on halting black occupancy or construction in transitional areas formed during the 1950s. These groups often created corporations to repurchase homes already sold to blacks or to buy all available houses on the market in an area to keep blacks from arriving. Whites in the Grove Park– Center Hill area, which was adjacent to the largest black community in the city, organized a corporation that bought twenty-fi ve to thirty houses near Hightower and Simpson Roads to block black development. 26</span></div><div><br /></div><div>--Tomiko Brown-Nagin. 2011.

In the process of “renewing” urban neighborhoods, planners destroyed black neighborhoods without providing adequate numbers of replacement dwellings. During a five-year period in the late 1950s, 3,406 African-American families lost shelter as a result of urban renewal. Because of its widely known negative impact on the black community, the urban renewal process came to be known informally as “Negro removal.” As Robert Weaver, then a fair housing expert and soon a U.S. cabinet secretary for urban affairs, explained in a 1955 article, slum clearance was only good policy if coupled with a large construction program of low-cost and middle-income housing. Where both of these components were absent, urban renewal was an unmitigated loss for low-income communities. 31 The Urban League tried to blunt the impact of the renewal process by accepting money from the city to relocate “back-alley” dwellers—Hamilton’s term for those homeless to begin with and those left homeless due to the demolition of their housing. </span></div><div><span style="color: red;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="color: red;">However, neither the Urban League nor any of the other black organizations that advised the MPC challenged the city to replace as much housing as it destroyed. 32 Nor did black leaders resist the basic limitation of the MPC’s planning process— its policy of maintaining and perpetuating residential segregation. Segregation was the root cause of the housing crisis because it confined African Americans to so small a percentage of the city’s land mass in the first place. The MPC, with the tacit approval of its black supporters, repeatedly reinforced the existing system of housing segregation and scarcity. The MPC’s decision during the 1950s to end Willis Mill Road five blocks south of Gordon Road (now Martin Luther King Drive) so that it would be impossible to drive from Gordon into Cascade Heights, a white neighborhood, illustrated the point. </span></div><div><span style="color: red;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="color: red;">That decision left one hundred acres of land undeveloped. 33 Each time the MPC left land undeveloped in this manner or approved the creation of artificial barriers to cordon blacks off from whites, it artificially limited the land area available for black expansion. True enough, these barriers had utility if they were parks or access roads, rather than dead-end streets, walls, or vacant lots; but, typically, only whites benefite</span><span style="color: red;">d from such buffer zones and, in any event, their primary purpose was to control black mobility."</span></div><div><br /></div><div>--Tomiko Brown-Nagin. 2011.

nullification, voicing agreement with equal rights while continuing or
intensifying discrimination, did not rely on antebellum intellectual arguments
or confrontations but instead thrived silently in the offices of biased
employees. Phone calls and conversations at segregated meetings and conventions
left no racist fingerprints, but the accretion of prejudice festered and
ultimately grew into a plan to eliminate minority, women, and small farmers by
preventing their sharing equally in federal programs. Despite overwhelming
evidence of discrimination, incompetence, and falsehoods in many offices, the
USDA never cut off funds to those offices, and apparently no white person was
fired and few were even relocated or reprimanded.”<o:p></o:p></span></p>

And so the South African government instituted “job-reservation” laws designed to ensure that only whites got jobs that paid well. The government also set about creating jobs for whites in government-owned industries. As Allister Sparks notes in The Mind of South Africa (1990), in its efforts to provide high-paying jobs for whites, the country “eventually acquired the largest amount of nationalized industry of any country outside the Communist bloc.” In other words, racial discrimination was possible because it was backed by the power of the government, which prevented markets from following their natural course."</span></div><div>--FROM: Ray and Anderson. 2011.

In 1850, half of all births in Habsburg Vienna were out of wedlock, and almost half (46 per cent) in Stockholm (Matovic 1980: 336). Munich had also half of its children born outside marriage in 1860, and the provincial capital of Carinthia (Klagenfurt) holds perhaps a European record for a community of some size, with 69 per cent extra-marital births in 1870-74 (Mitterauer 1983: 150n, 23).... where the social transformation had not settled, the figures were still very high.

In Sweden in 190110, extra-marital birth was primarily a capital-city custom, although with somewhat more than 300,000 inhabitants Stockholm was far from a metropolis. While the national proportion was 13 per cent of all births, in Stockholm it was 36 per cent.."</span></div><div style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="color: red;"><br /></span></div><div style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="color: red;">"At the beginning of the twenty-first century, unmarried cohabitation has become a major practice of Northwestern Europe (save Ireland), North America and Oceania. First of all, cohabitation has become the main form of first union of sex and household. In the UK about 60 per cent of all first marriages are preceded by unmarried cohabitation (Coleman 2000: 60). Interestingly, the current relative prevalence of cohabitation in the UK resembles the pattern of extra-marital births a century or more ago. In both cases it is higher in Wales than in England, in the East Midlands than in the West Midlands or London (Hollingsworth 1981; Office for National Statistics 2002). Among French women born in 1964-68 three-quarters had entered a union by the age of 24: 60 per cent as cohabitees, and 16 per cent had married without prior cohabitation. Out of a similar West German cohort 61 per cent had coupled by the age of 24, but only 18 per cent directly by marriage."</span></div><div style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="color: red;"><br /></span></div><div style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="color: red;">"More surprising perhaps is that the first Irish economic boom in modern history resulted in illegitimacy soaring, from 8.5 per cent in 1985 and 14.5 per cent in 1990 to 31.8 per cent in 2000, while elections and referenda have kept the Catholic prohibitions of abortion and divorce in operation...

For the town's industrial growth required the brawn of unskilled workingmen. And the Irish, most of them without skills and many without any prior exposure to the discipline of factory life, needed income. Hence, while the posted notices and newspaper advertisements which announced that "No Irish Need Apply" may have been the most overt and galling manifestations of discrimination, in Waltham they were also among the least consequential."</span><br />-- Guelman, H. M. 1973. No Irish need apply: Patterns of and responses to ethnic discrimination in the labor market.

QUOTE:<br /><span style="color: blue;"></span><br /><span style="color: blue;">"As early as 1855 Irish men were the largest group of the cartmen of New York, including those that specialized in doing city work on sanitation, landfill road projects and the like. To be a private cartman one required a license; to work for the municipal government in particular one needed good connections. Even before the massive influx of the famine Irish in 1843, the Democrat-dominated Common Council gave a large number of market licenses to Irish men, much to the chagrin of native American entrepreneurs."</span><br /><span style="background-color: white; color: black; display: inline; float: none; font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: 16px; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal;">--FROM: Bayor and Meagher 1996, The New Y0rk Irish, 96-97</span><br /><b></b><i></i><u></u><sub></sub><sup></sup><strike></strike><br /><span style="color: blue;">"As a consequence, the public sector employed a full one-third of first, second and third-generation Irish Americans in 1930 compared with just 6 percent in 1900.

Many of the city's Irish middle class worked on the public payroll, especially in the public schools, and thousands of others labored in construction jobs tied to city expenditures. For second-generation Irish-American women, jobs as schoolteachers were the most sought-after career.

<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
Oh no you say, pilgrim. Yes, I say. Why
not? Let's look at the case, then review the movie "The Black
Panther" a bit. Let's see- most know the general story outline.
Wakanda is a secretive African kingdom blessed with the magic metal
vibranium, which enables them to develop advanced technology. They
are suspicious of the outside world and "cloak" the kingdom
from outside observation- all a flyover foreign aircraft could see
for example is lush jungle, not the imposing spires of Wakanda. In
the movie, antagonist Eric Killmonger wants a more activist, militant approach-
as king he intends to ship weapons all over the globe so that
"oppressed peoples" rise up and overthrow their oppressors.
The first shipment is set to go out to spies in Hong Kong. Others
will follow around the world. Killmonger's father N'jobu had originally tried this liberation scheme, and revealed Wakanda state secrets to racist mercenary Klaw, so as to smuggle vibranium out of the kingdom for weapons-making. The Black Panther's father, T'Chaka, killed N'jobu for this betrayal, setting up Njobu's son Killmonger on a combination revenge mission/redemption of Dad's plan and pathway.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
King Tchalla rejects the Killmonger vision. He
wants to preserve Wakanda from all the horrific problems in
surrounding African countries, which implies keeping <b>out </b>refugees or
migrants from as Trump would say, those shi%$le countries. Hmm,
sounds, at least indirectly implied, like the Donald. <span style="background-color: transparent; color: red; display: inline; float: none; font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: left; text-decoration: none; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;">Check</span>. He is
against adventurism and far-flung interventionism, like the Trump.
<span style="color: red;">Check</span>. King Tchalla wants to put Wakanda first, rather than save the
world. Again, this sounds a bit like Trump who is says he is tired of America
having to be some sort of nanny or street cop to everyone else.
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: red; display: inline; float: none; font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: left; text-decoration: none; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;">Check</span>. And King Tchalla is willing to do what it takes to
eliminate disruptive "Black Lives Matter" style agitators
like Eric Killmonger. Hmm, the Trump likewise has railed against BLM
"hate" disruptions and demonstrations. <span style="background-color: transparent; color: red; display: inline; float: none; font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: left; text-decoration: none; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;">Check</span>. Oh and for
good measure, he would not be weeping if the police deal out a little
kindly "curbstone justice" to designated gangsta baddies.
When you look at it, Tchalla seems like a conservative, status quo
guy- compare his "corporate" demeanor to the fiery BLM
style "black militant" Killmonger. If Tchalla went to
certain venues, he would be staying at one of the upscale Trump
Properties no? And why not? Things have changed and said properties
no longer banish black peoples from the premises. And finally, both
Tchalla and Trump are rich guys who don't do much for the struggling
or poor. <span style="background-color: transparent; color: red; display: inline; float: none; font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: left; text-decoration: none; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;">Check</span>.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
So there you have it pilgrim, Tchalla
and the Trump.</div>

will badly influence black people, and divert them from depressing
black realities such as Haiti and Zimbabwe. Shocking.. Oh you
pathetic bleks. Kersey does not mention depressing white realities
like the Bosnia, the Balkans, or perennially crime-infested southern
Italy, the Holocaust, or the violent, oft drunk white Irish both in
the US and Britain. Apparently only black people have "Depressing"
histories or problems. The film will also have an evil influence too
opines Kersey. It will be introduced in skools and cause white kids
to be "ashamed" of their heritage. Geeze.. all this from a
comic book based movie? What the white kids gonna be <a href="https://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2013/06/coming-apart-can-murrays-down-with.html" target="_blank">ashamed</a> about?
That they lack white superheroes like oh, let's see, Spiderman, Hulk, Thor, Wolverine, and golden boy Captain America? Uh huh. They
gonna be sad because they don't have the super-cool (but fictional)
vibranium technology? Right... And could it be that all these cool white super heroes <span id="goog_1092043403"></span><a href="https://www.blogger.com/">divert</a> <span id="goog_1092043404"></span>the attention of white people from <span style="color: #38761d;"><a href="https://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2013/06/coming-apart-can-murrays-down-with.html" target="_blank">depressing realities</a>?</span><br />
<span style="color: #38761d;"></span><br />
Now I don't recall most white kids having any substantial or long-term "guilt" attacks during the "blaxploitation" era
on into the late 1970s with the popular "Shaft" or "Super
Fly" films and numerous others that were much more heavy on
black pride and militance, during an era with plenty of school
curricula introducing black studies, etc etc including "Black
History Month." Where were the legions of white kids cringing in
"shame"? Yes to be sure ,depressing things like genocide,
lynching, harsh worker exploitation, and massive theft of Indian land
happened, but most of that is just quickly glided over as boring
"content" to be covered and checked off in an already
overstuffed curricula. Once that particular "content area"
is covered, alleged "guilt" (if any) is rather thin..
Academic studies of the same circa the early 1970s couldn't find much
<a href="http://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2016/05/a-review-wealth-poverty-and-politics.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: purple;">"white guilt" </span></a>among young whites back in the day. Same
pattern today.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
Fast forward to the "rap"
era. Where are these legions of psychologically "crippled" white kids
right-wing fear-mongers invoke again and again? Even the wannabe
"wiggers" just like the beat, the style, and the
disapproving grimace on Mom and Dad's face at the tenth rendition of
white rap superstar Eminem' is played. At the end of the day they go
to schools full of thin "Black History Month" activities,
salute the US flag, and enjoy comfortable suburban lives. The more
"ashamed" among them may take up Nascar. And speaking of
Emimen, what's with those "reload" and gunshot sounds in the
background of his song "Go To Sleep"? Another school being
"taken out" by allegedly more virtuous white people?

<b>A second coming and new fabulous outfits? </b>On
the liberal side of the fence, there is so much commentary, its a
veritable ocean- Slate, Salon, Esquire, Daily Beast etc etc. For some
liberals the "Black Panther" movie was greeted like some
sort of epiphany, a veritable Second Coming of Abraham, Martin, Bobby
and John.. Cue musics.. Some taken in by the hype
were even buying new outfits to go to the grand opening. A Time Magazine reviewer <span style="color: purple;"><a href="http://time.com/5133882/black-panther-review/" target="_blank">wrote</a> </span>that the film is about <i>“the revolutionary power of Black Panther.“</i> Another Time reviewer, doubles down, writing that Wakanda is “<i>what America looks like when it’s allowed to be its truest, freest self.</i> ” Wow. Really? So America would be a tropical, hereditary monarchy where regime change is by lethal single combat? Scratch head.<br />
The queer, gay Afro-punk, and certain other black subcultures seem overjoyed by the
movie. And why not? They are part of the cultural picture, and will appropriate what they want to. In the contemporary print comic, various lesbian
contacts between members of the all-female bodyguard force, the Dora
Milaje are depicted or hinted at. Indeed, the film, did have a
lesbian styled scene but it was <span style="color: purple;"><a href="https://www.blogger.com/(https://www.pinknews.co.uk/2018/02/12/black-panther-screenwriter-opens-up-about-the-films-deleted-lesbian-romance" target="_blank">deleted</a> </span>for the final cut, a decision deplored by various gay and lesbian groups and commentators. For example one critique complained about ".<i>. the engineered disappearance of Black queers in BP,
and the concurrent insistent reproduction of stale forms of
heteropatriarchy..</i>" </div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
Yah. But then huge turns of pressure are being ratcheted up for more gay depictions in movies and other popular culture media, a mainstreaming trend. Perhaps future Black Panther movies
will continue to push the queer trend for the black side of town. Its a
great way to desensitize young people to certain traditional values and lead them
along the path, using popular movies as a vehicle. So far Disney has used a "pinkwashing" strategy, seemingly friendly and progressive with little gestures, but cautious about offending mainstream audiences. Marvel has walked back the lesbian thing a bit, saying that its only<span style="color: purple;"> <a href="https://www.vanityfair.com/hollywood/2017/04/black-panther-gay-danai-gurira" target="_blank">gal pals</a></span> in view. Other critics are miffed that Marvel did not depict a <a href="https://io9.gizmodo.com/thor-ragnaroks-valkyrie-shows-how-far-weve-got-to-go-f-1820188880" target="_blank"><span style="color: purple;">bisexual Valkyrie</span></a> in Thor, <i>Ragnarok</i>. Interestingly Valkyrie was played by a black woman in <i>Ragnarok</i>, a shrewd strategy for increasing acceptance, since potential negative feedback can be blamed on racism. But in any event, the print comic will be incorporating a new title called World of Wakanda with gay lead characters in new stories developed by aptly black feminist writer, Roxanne Gay.<br />
<br />
One interesting angle: perhaps "Wakanda" was hyped so much because it seemed to finally give gay-themed blackness or black gays some greater media visibility, and Wakanda seems to provide a (fictional) "safe place" for gay coloreds. A common complaint of this group is of a white gay culture that dismisses or ignores gays of color, a pattern that extends into gay business establishments apparently, where blacks may be asked for 2 or 3 forms of ID, (a way to discourage them) while whites are waved through. The other common complaint is being commodified as an object, or being ignored and made to feel invisible. As one scholarly analysis (Han 2007) puts it- QUOTE:<br />

<span style="color: blue;">"Sometimes racism in the gay community takes on more explicit forms. Like racism everywhere, these forms tend to operate with the goal of excluding, in this case, men of color from gay institutions. Perhaps the most notorious has been the events surrounding Badlands, a popular bar in the Castro district in San Francisco. In the summer of 2004, Badlands became the site of weekly picketing after a group of racially diverse Bay Area residents filed a complaint with the San Francisco Human Rights Commission, the San Francisco Entertainment Commission, the California Department of Fair Employment and Housing, and the state Alcoholic Beverage Control Department claiming racial discrimination at the bar. Among the complaints were that not only was the owner practising job discrimination at the bar but also that non-white customers were being either turned away at the door or were being expunged from the bar. According to complainants, people of color were routinely denied employment and promotional opportunities and entrance into the establishment. Most obvious incidents were the fact that black men were required to provide two forms of I.D. at the door while white men were required to only show one... "</span><br />

<span style="color: blue;">"Even the most perfunctory glance through gay publications exposes the paucity of non-white gay images. It’s almost as if no gay men of color exist outside of fantasy cruises to Jamaica, Puerto Rico, or the ‘Orient’. And even then, they exist only to fulfill the sexual fantasies of gay white men. ‘Exotic’ vacations to far away places are marketed to rich white men and poor colored bodies are only another consumable product easily purchased with western dollars. As such, gay men of color, whether found within western borders or conveniently waiting for white arrival in the far off corners of the globe, are nothing more than commodities for consumption.</span></div>

<b><span style="color: red;">Invisibility of gays of color (Han 2007- QUOTE:)</span></b><br />
<br />
"Not surprisingly, allusions to invisibility are common in the writings and media productions created by gay men of color. For example, in Tongues untied, black film maker Marlon Riggs had this to say about San Francisco:<br />
<br />
<i>I pretended not to notice the absence of black images in this new gay life, in bookstores, poster shops, film festivals, even my own fantasies. Something in Oz was amiss, but I tried not to notice. I was intent on my search for my reflection, love, affirmation, in eyes of blue, gray, green. Searching, I discovered something I didn’t expect, something decades of determined assimilation cannot blind me to. In this great, gay Mecca, I was an invisible man. I had no shadow, no substance, no place, no history, no reflection. (Riggs, 1989)</i><br />
<i></i><br />
<span style="color: red;">Likewise, Joseph Beam (1986) in his work, In the Life wrote:</span><br />
<i>Visibility is survival . . . It is possible to read thoroughly two or three consecutive issues of the Advocate, the national biweekly gay newsmagazine, and never encounter, in the words or images, Black gay men . . . We ain’t family. Very clearly, gay male means: White, middle-class, youthful, nautilized, and probably butch, there is no room for Black gay men within the confines of this gay pentagon. </i>(quoted in Manalansan, 1996, p. 402)<br />

But rather than try to cover every
aspect- only 2 or 3 points about the movie will be discussed here, before a final summary.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">

<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<b>1) The naive Killmonger "plan" </b><br />
Before discussing Killmonger, it should be considered that perhaps his primary purpose is to get some interesting Afro-American characters into the story mix. More on that in final words below. </div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<b></b><br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<b>Revolutionary Killmonga?</b> Michael
B. Jordan does a great job as the main villain Killmonger, and virtually steals
the show from Tchalla. His over the top alpha male vibe seems to have resonated with some viewers over against what they claim is too much feminization or Afro-punk appropriation. They may be disappointed, but nevertheless there seems to be a brisk <span style="color: purple;"><a href="https://twitter.com/search?q=%23TeamKillmonger&src=tyah" target="_blank">pro-Killmonger</a> </span>movement
online- even a hash tag for some supporters styled <b>#TeamKillmonger</b>,
with most lamenting that his radical vision was not developed more
into a truly revolutionary depiction on
film. I find such laments questionable- for
Killmonger himself, for all the character's loud, strong screen
presence, is only the latest in a long line of depictions of radical
or "militant' blacks as naïve and/or incompetent. But even a
would-be contemporary <span style="color: purple;">"<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pw4sQa2crAc" target="_blank">voice of black revolution</a></span>" doesn't
seem to have grasped the corporate manipulation- opining on Youtube that
"It doesn't matter if Killmonger's "lets give arms to the
oppressed" plan was sketchy on the details. All that matters is
that he was "doing something" to help liberate "oppressed
peoples." Give it
a good try- that's the ticket.
</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<b>A case of naivete? </b>OF course
even the most casual viewer can see the laughable naivete in
Killmonger's "plan." First, who exactly are "oppressed
people"? Let's just stick with Africa for a moment. There are a
massive number of seething conflicts between clans, ethnic groups,
religious cults and authorities etc etc, and then there are the
seething politics. All of them feel aggrieved. Would Killmonger's
super-vibranium arms (of which we see little in the movie) go to the thousands of displaced, exiled and resentful Hutu in the refugee camps of the Congo who want
another crack at a little genocidal action? How about all those
assorted ethnic conflicts now festering in country after country? How
about all the political conflicts just waiting to blow up? Multiply
the same in various corners of the globe? Oh boy, let's just insert all these super efficient Wakanda killer weapons into those festering sores and poke. "Justice" for the "oppressed" will
appear. Really?<br />
<br />
Then there are internal Wakanda folk who feel oppressed- and indeed the recent print comics have episodes of a civil war in Wakanda. Will these oppressed and aggrieved parties INSIDE Wakanda get some of those super-weapons?</div>

<i>Huey: original "Killmonger"..</i></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<i></i><br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<b>Huey P. Killmonga? </b>In the
original Marvel comic, Killmonger was a native Wakandan born in the
country before being exiled by Tchalla's father. He comes back for
revenge. In the movie, he is yet another fatherless child in an
Oakland ghetto. This is supposed to create some sort of link with the
1960s Black Panthers in Oakland, and allows a brash American
character to be inserted into the mix of what could be an otherwise
tedious depiction of African elites - complete with stilted dialog.
The "Huey Newton" style link seems a stretch but it does
serve to highlight the naivete of Killmonger's character, just as the
Black Panthers were so often naive, spending most of their resources
in legal battles with "the pigs" and "the system"
while efficient organization and their much touted "free
breakfast program" and others such small scale efforts were shortchanged. In any event, such programs only served a few score kids or
people in certain areas. They were a minor sideshow- always
subordinated to political theater. Even sadder, tens of thousands of dollars raised for the Panther or various projects went to support Huey's drug habit, according to his own lieutenant, David Hilliard. And alas, even former "Minister of Information" Eldridge Cleaver, ended his days addicted to crack, according to ex Panther <a href="http://www.nathanielturner.com/myfriendthedevilmemoir.htm" target="_blank">Marvin X</a>, himself an author, poet and contributor to the Black Arts Movement.<br />
<br />
One only has to read the biography
of an ex-Panther like David Hilliard's "<a href="https://archive.org/details/thissideofglorya00hill" target="_blank">This Side of Glory</a>"
to glimpse the ludicrous "logic" of "The Party."
Rather than build a tight, disciplined revolutionary organization
like Ho, Mao or Cabral, the Panthers were almost comical - putting
hapless "soldiers" in easily found locations for the police
to raid, conducting no-win armed confrontations with more numerous and
better armed police on the streets, and staging flashy media "events"
and stunts to "raise consciousness." Hilliard notes that
this was Huey Newton's contribution to revolutionary "strategy,"
- event staging, heavy on rhetoric and PR, but accomplishing few long-term results given the grievous expenditures in lives and resources- even as significant slices of his membership in some cities
were made up of FBI and police informants, agents and provocateurs. It is also a fact that most of the Black Panther's funding came from white people on the left, who used various Panther trials as public spectacle, but left individual members to bear the brutal costs. Once their symbolic usefulness became inconvenient for a white anti-war left that was going mainstream and anxious to shed "fringe" associations, the Panthers were eventually ditched by these same people when it became convenient, save for small marginal elements like the Weather Underground. The above being said, it must be admitted that without a doubt Huey P. Newton was a brave man, as some of his confrontations with the police show, but while his bravery is undeniable (some call him pathological), it is an open question as to the practical results he accomplished, or the tactical wisdom he demonstrated. </div>

<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<b>A bit of signaling? </b>Kilmonger's
plan also conveniently skips addressing Africa with its corrupt
strongmen, kleptocrats, and predatory governments in many parts (not
all of course). If anything, the shipment of weapons should start
right within the continent to get justice for the downtrodden masses.
But the first shipment of weapons is to Asia! Ha aha ha aha.. But let's
say other shipments of super-weapons are bound for Oakland and other
black locations in the US. What they gonna do there? Shoot "the
pigs" like Huey so often jawboned in between snorts of coke?
What's the plan after the establishment adjusts and deploys full police-military forces with countermeasures? Eat purple heart flowers?
Killmonger is supposed to be this super-smart MIT grad, Navy Seal
guy. Where’s the organization? What's the backup plan? The first priority of cats <span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; display: inline; float: none; font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: left; text-decoration: none; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;">like Mao, Ho and Stalin </span>as to build solid local and regional bases, like the base camps Ho and Giap used across the Chinese or Laotian borders, and clandestine cells and structures among the people inside their territories, boosting numbers and organization over time. This is what you do first for several years. Mao spent years building clandestine bases in remote areas, and bases embedded deep within peasant communities, until he had enough land controlled and manpower to make a move on Generalissimo Chiang Kai Shek. This is Revolution 101.<br />
<br />
Killmonger's father N'Jobu apparently wanted to start arming oppressed peoples in Oakland California. As he says in the movie:<br />
<div class="quote">
<dl><dd><span title="Source: Black Panther (film)"><i>"I observed for as
long as I could. Their leaders have been assassinated. Communities
flooded with drugs and weapons. They are overly policed and
incarcerated. All over the planet our people suffer because they don't
have the tools to fight back. With <a href="http://marvelcinematicuniverse.wikia.com/wiki/Vibranium" title="Vibranium">Vibranium</a> weapons they can overthrow every country and <a href="http://marvelcinematicuniverse.wikia.com/wiki/Wakanda" title="Wakanda">Wakanda</a> can rule them all the right way."</i></span>
</dd><dd>―N'Jobu to <a href="http://marvelcinematicuniverse.wikia.com/wiki/T%27Chaka" title="T'Chaka">T'Chaka</a><span class="noprint"><sup><a href="http://marvelcinematicuniverse.wikia.com/wiki/Black_Panther_(film)" title="Black Panther (film)">[src]</a></sup></span></dd></dl>
</div>
OK but strangely missing from the above is one of the most oppressive forces on black communities, black criminals and street gangs. The same pattern also appears in the 1960s Panther "Ten Point Program" which among other things, called for the release of all blacks from prison. It sounds cool, and great for black criminals, but when do their black victims get justice? And since settling of old scores, and competing visions among groups is part and parcel of most revolutions, what happens when assorted Crips, Bloods and other competing "gangbangas" get their hands on the super-weaponry?<br />
<br />
A truly
intriguing, and more realistic plot twist would be Killmonger actually having a useful
scheme, like starting to build a larger land and population base by dominating other countries near to tiny Wakanda, and kicking some regional ass before far flung adventurism. In the print comic, and animated TV series, the neighboring
"Niganda" (chew on that name pilgrim) was a troublesome
corrupt place in stark contrast with Wakanda. It would have been a
perfect foil, but it makes no appearance in this movie.<br />
<span style="color: red;"><br /></span><span style="color: red;">The N'jobu/Killmonger actual
"plan" (or rather non-plan) in the movie is so dubious that
one wonders what the black director of this movie is doing by passing
off this stale trope of the naive militant. What perchance he is
"signaling"?</span> Of course it could be argued that movies are
filled with naive plotters planning the impossible, and being foiled
by the heroic protagonists. </div>

<b>2. Who’s handling whom?<br /><br /></b></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
At the very end, the corporate man
Tchalla addresses the United Nations in flowery prose. A smiling CIA
agent looks on approvingly. One cannot escape the feeling that
Tchalla is being "handled" by someone else. And indeed, in
the 1990s print comic, white guy <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Everett_K._Ross" target="_blank"><span style="color: purple;">Everett Ross</span></a> is a close confidante
of King Tchalla, who even serves as the king's regent. Hmm, a CIA agent as regent of an
African kingdom? Talk about "handlers".. a point made even more ironic by negative CIA involvement in Africa- in the Congo, in collaboration with the South African apartheid regime, and in various other destabilization and disinformation campaigns,<br /><br />Nevertheless, Agent Ross plays a
heroic role in the movie- stopping the shipment of vibranium weapons
outside the country. Despite life threatening injuries the white guy
gets healed and becomes the hero. But the radical black guy,
Killmonger, is killed off by another black man. Sweet.. In the Marvel Universe Tchalla is a helper of the globalist order. He gives Iron Man (Tony Stark) and Cap America vibranium for various weapons. He shows up when called by the Avengers and so on. In the print comic Killmonger is apparently killed, yet in various ways is brought back. I hope he is brought back- Killmonger makes a great villain, but this time, give him a credible world domination plan will ya?</div>

<b>3) Then there is the corporate
Tchalla.</b></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<b>Mr. Corporate. </b>He is certainly
competent, and his role stays somewhat true to the comic. As king for
example, it simply won't do for him to go around in a hoodie, and
using phrases like "y'all". He has to keep that
African-accented proper English. Thus of necessity there will be some
stiffness. He can't get away with many of the silly wisecracks the
free-roaming Thor or Iron Man get away with. The female character -
his sister- Shuri- is there to provide comic relief. This works to
point. But in the print comic Black Panther was a walking ball of
testosterone. In the movie he seems more carefully controlled. Women
are given a much more prominent place in the movie than in the comic-
prominent in military and science. His bodyguard is all female (this
did not exist in the original Panther comics) including commanding
general of the military. Its a girl power thing, and it works to some
extent, although some feminist complain about how "patriarchy"
still appears in the film. Well yes, its a comic book tale about a
male king with a still traditional kingdom to run and defend.
Deal with it.<br />
Other apparent "feminists" re
<b>#TeamKillmonger, </b>appear distressed that Killmonger killed women
in the movie- members of the bodyguard. Well cry me a river. The
bodyguard are military personnel- they will take casualties in
battle. Equal privilege to serve, equal risk and sacrifice when
engaging in combat. And said complainer had nothing to say when the
female bodyguards rack up a body count of several men in the movie.
That's OK you see- but heaven forbid when a female dies. Roll eyes..

<b>Gee, more social services for black
folk Mr Tech?</b> One of the most laughable parts of the movie is
near the end, where Tchalla, a billionaire, decides to buy some old
buildings in Oakland to open various rec/youth center. Really? You are a
billionaire, high tech king and all you can do to help black people
is open another semi boys and girls club in the hood? Hell present youth programs have enough <span style="color: purple;"><a href="https://www.csmonitor.com/1998/1223/122398.feat.feat.5.html" target="_blank">trouble</a> </span>attracting kids, many of whom are not thrilled about structured programs, alongside the usual problems of attracting youth once they hit the teen years. On top of that, some programs in place are already seeing male alienation due to issues associated with <a href="https://educationnorthwest.org/sites/default/files/resources/bulletin_male_recruitment.pdf" target="_blank"><span style="color: purple;">feminization</span></a>. In essence Tchalla becomes a smiling neoliberal non-profit manager. The book, <a href="https://www.dukeupress.edu/the-revolution-will-not-be-funded" target="_blank">The Revolution will Not be funded</a>, has excellent analysis on elites use of non-profits in control, co-optation and diversionary dead-ends in communities of color. Meanwhile, real wealth, skills and assets are being consolidated elsewhere. The ending has an eerie parallel with some 1960s venues: the liquidation of "irresponsible militant elements" followed by "cooling off programs" managed by a corporate type comprador class.<br />
<br />
Why not be different? What about a factory or network of makerspaces using some of that vibranium technology that can provide solid jobs
for hundreds of area residents? You don't have to reveal your secrets- you can run assembly facilities using prepackaged components for example, in addition to more independent creative design projects. Or direct skill training
programs in technology, medical etc etc for promising kids that
don't have all the formal credentials, helping to end-run the
bureaucracies and gatekeepers that stymie their opportunities? I
mean, do you really need "Algebra 2" to get into nursing
school or law enforcement, or is that just another dodge to keel-haul
students through another semester, so the school tops off its revenue, and banks double down on the debt young people are saddled with?
Decent technical skills are built every day by the regular US
military- taking low-end young men and women and making them useful,
without a lot of the top-heaviness that may have little relevance to
the skill being taught. Indeed one study suggests that the much hyped "<a href="https://www.vox.com/2019/1/7/18166951/skills-gap-modestino-shoag-ballance" target="_blank">skills gap</a>" is bogus, a partial product of employers demanding excessive qualifications. </div>

Even more seemingly illogical is the fact that
Wakanda chooses Oakland, USA, where there is no shortage of social
services, or food, or transportation, etc. to do "outreach,"
rather than Africa where needs are much greater, where thousands of
people are actually starving, where hundreds of thousands languish in
refugee zones or camps. Yet you gonna go to Oakland to do youth
center basketball? This in principle is exactly what some
neoliberals of the globalist establishment would do- fob off the
negroes with the chump change of social services, or nice rhetoric of
"African Renaissances" which barely scratch the wealth of
elites, and ensure favored rent-seeking bureaucracies get paid. It
looks and sounds so progressive, so cool, so Mandela-like. But it's
chump change. A truly interesting scenario would have been not the
foolishness of Killmonger, but a Wakanda that began to
export some of the allegedly "advanced" technology -
putting it to work to truly help the poor, not via more social
services, but in agriculture, industry, technology and
transportation. Imagine microscopic grains of vibranium mated to
solar cells to produce small, cheap motors- good for everything from
powering well pumps, to small farm machinery, to generating
electrical power, to powering clean automobiles, quality cellphones, web servers, or
small factory looms and gearing.

<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
An expansive effort like this, putting
real dollars and tech "on the street," in the hands of the poorest
people, would have been a truly significant development. But what do
we get? Exactly what some affluent Silicon Valley liberals Western-based NGO rent-seekers, or native elites would expect- a few
beads tossed to the ghetto or rural natives, while the vast bulk of the
resources are siphoned off for the already well-off. The implication of this is all too true in the real world: the black kids get social services and self-esteem, but the white
and Asian kids move ahead elsewhere with science, math,
engineering, tech, medical etc... Couldn’t the black director do
better than this? This "NGO ending" is symptomatic of
some of the problems with this movie.<br />

Note I do not criticize a cautious "opening up" approach by Wakanda in principle. It is better than the "militancy" of Killmonger- which is "the message" the film creators want us to "get" right? Wakanda in a way is a bit like real-world Switzerland- sitting on a mound of wealth, and playing everybody for a profit. The real Switzerland of course had no problem receiving and profiting from the stolen goods and looted wealth of Nazi victims all over Europe, including Jewish Holocaust victims during the Ww2 era. Wakanda is different on that count to be sure. Still, we don't expect Switzerland to solve all the problems of white people. So why should Wakanda be this messianic hope for blacks?<br />

"revolutionary" Panther is- whether in terms of style or "message" is just hype- the ending
message is a conservative one, and Tchalla is another cog in the globalist order. It could also be argued that the "NGO ending" was inevitable, and in terms of marketing the "Oakland" tie-in is not so illogical at all. For the Black Panther franchise to continue its prominent success, and maintain faith with the American fan base, it certainly needs hip, black Anglo-American "urban" protagonists or antagonists or tie-ins. <span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; display: inline; float: none; font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: left; text-decoration: none; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;">Perhaps Marvel's fan base of still mostly white males would not have been too enthusiastic about stilted "Afrilish" dialog, so-called "masculine looking" female bodyguards, and exotic outfits of the African Wakanda. A dose of American hipness, best embodied in the many black rappers whose sales are heavy with white patronage, was needed to balance potential negatives. Hence we have Killmonger and his semi-trash talking "urban" hip-hop style. That being established, Disney/Marvel needed some way to link him into the Wakanda universe, hence his "militant/revolutionary" persona. Maybe it is marketing after all.</span></span><br />

But why are we surprised? To get his
movie made the director has to play ball with the Hollywood
establishment and produce what they want him to produce. The surprise is how so many people have lapped up this movie as something so profound or meaningful.. I mean, it is curious but telling, that neither Killmonger or Tchalla's "outreach" actions do much for African people desperately needing help. Tens of thousands languish in refugee camps, or in utter destitution and starvation, or in poverty. Yet Killmonger gonna do war and violence with the "super-weapons" for all disgruntled groups with the first shipment to Asia (ROFL) and Tchalla gonna do youth basketball in Oakland. Really?</span></div>

<b>SUMMARY- Bottom line- "Black Panther" is
nothing special, but hey, everybody got paid</b></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
I rate the flick a "3" out of 5- having good individual performances by most of
the cast. The characterization of the major players sparkles, from Killmonger to Shuri. Even Klaw throws in some fun, rather than play a standard grim-faced baddie. The outfits are certainly nice. However the special effects seem mediocre. The early "flyover"
scene is routine, a spacy craft moving over land and water- like old
cutscenes from video games of the early 2000s. Fight scenes benefit from the eye-catching waterfall location, and are adequate, but nothing exceptional. The car chase scene is not bad, but about average these days- a few flips and crashes, some jumps from car to car. Same
with the vibranium ore trains- colorful but nothing to write home
about. The two CGI armored rhinos in the melee fight are an interesting special effect,
but their cgi is rather obvious, and they make a too brief appearance to be meaningful (even then one gets killed off easily), and they don't seem to fit a
hand to hand battle.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">And</span> <span style="color: red;">where is the supposed super-duper Wakandan weaponry all the fuss is about? <span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; display: inline; float: none; font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: left; text-decoration: none; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;">Shuri's lab is thin on
showing much of the gee-whiz Wakandan technology. True, there is the form-fitting Panther
battle suit that absorbs external hits but it is a passive mechanism, and without any attached cool gadgets. The girly kimoyo beads are cute and offer 3D holograms for communication, but its output is small flickering images- nothing special considering the sharp 2D Video Telephone feeds and images we now get today PLUS attached data, downloads, cloud storage and links in our high-end smart phones. The same pattern appears in <i>Avengers- Infinity Wars.</i> The main Wakanda tech is passive- force fields. Wakandan armies go into battle with spears, whereas all the non-Wakandans have the cool high-tech stuff- from Hulkbuster suits, to flying mech battle armor. Even Bucky has a high powered rifle that the Racoon wants to buy, with which he mows down alien baddies. Why not do something interesting like giving the Wakandan troops powerful sonic-type weapons, since vibranium works on the principle of vibrational frequencies? </span></span>And the inner workings of Wakanda are strangely thin once one gets beyond the royal palace walls. What economy sustains the skyscrapers and high tech facilities? Who keeps the ore trains running? On the flipside of course it could be rejoined that Dr Doom's Kingdom of Latveria is not exactly bursting with inner revelations either. Oh well, the sequel may tell us more.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
All in all, the movie seems a mediocre
vehicle as far as special effects, action and certain plot threads. I really can't
see how this flick took 200 million dollars to make, when there are
cheaper films with better special effects and just as tight or
tighter pacing and plot. I have always felt that some of the Marvel
Cinematic Universe (MCU) films have a too bloated, top-heavy feel.
Panther, to its credit, did not try to gratuitously shoehorn in a
truckload of other MCU characters. The gross take worldwide has
exceeded 1.2 billion according to websites that <a href="https://www.the-numbers.com/movie/budgets/all" target="_blank"><span style="color: purple;">track such things</span></a>- so
assuming another 150 million for marketing and ads, the movie should
be turning a profit. Trump would love that ending.</div>

It reviewed hundreds of court cases and interviewed dozens of people who filed EEOC claims, which are made under penalty of perjury. What emerged is a picture of a system that routinely fails workers. Complaint data obtained from the EEOC for fiscal years 2010 through 2017 — a rare window into a largely obscured problem in America’s workplaces — shows that the agency closes most cases without concluding whether discrimination occurred. Sometimes, workers’ lawyers say, an EEOC investigation involves no more than asking the employer for a response..</span><br /><span style="color: blue;">A key part of the issue, according to experts and former EEOC employees, is that the agency doesn’t have the resources for its mammoth task. It has a smaller budget today than it did in 1980, adjusted for inflation, and 42 percent less staff. At the same time, the country’s labor force increased about 50 percent, to 160 million... The EEOC, in short, can’t come close to fulfilling the mission Congress gave it more than 50 years ago. The agency was the Civil Rights Act’s attempt to eradicate job discrimination from a nation plagued with it, but it’s never had the money and support to do it."<br /><span style="background-color: white; color: #000025; display: inline; float: none; font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: 13.33px; font-variant-caps: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal;">https://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/2019/2/28/18241973/workplace-discrimination-cpi-investigation-eeoc</span><b></b><i></i><u></u><sub></sub><sup></sup><strike></strike></span></div><div><span style="color: blue;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #000025; display: inline; float: none; font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: 13.33px; font-variant-caps: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal;"><br /></span></span></div></div>

contemporary forms of overt, subtle and implicit bias. Below is an inexhaustive

2017, Laquila Group Inc., a Brooklyn-based construction company, paid $625,000
into a class settlement fund and took measures to eliminate race bias and
retaliation against black construction laborers. In its lawsuit, EEOC alleged
that Laquila engaged in systemic discrimination against black employees as a
class by subjecting them to racial harassment, including referring to them
using the N-word, "gorilla," and similar epithets. The Commission
also alleged that the company fired an employee who complained about the
harassment. The consent decree also requires Laquila to set up a hotline for
employees to report illegal discrimination, provide anti-discrimination
training to its managers, adopt revised anti-discrimination policies and
employee complaint procedures and report all worker harassment and retaliation
complaints to the EEOC for the 42-month duration of the agreement. EEOC v. The

November 2017, after an extensive five-year, complicated systemic investigation
and settlement efforts, the EEOC reached an agreement with Lone Star Community
College covering recruitment, hiring and mentoring of African-American and
Hispanic applicants and employees. The terms of the agreement were designed to
enhance the College's commitment to the recruitment of African-American and
Hispanics and to engage in meaningful monitoring of the College's efforts to
reach its recruitment and hiring goals. The agreement included some novel
relief, such as: implementation of a new applicant tracking system;
establishing an advisory committee focused on the recruitment, development and
retention of minority groups; hiring of recruitment firms; developing new
interview protocol training; establishing a mentoring program for recently
hired minority employees; and updating job descriptions for all college manager
positions to require as a job component the diversity of its workforce.</span></div>

August 2017, Ford Motor Company agreed to pay nearly $10.125 million to settle
sex and race harassment investigation by the EEOC at two Ford plants in Chicago
area. In its investigation, the EEOC found reasonable cause to believe that
personnel at two Ford facilities in the Chicago area, the Chicago Assembly
Plant and the Chicago Stamping Plant, had subjected female and African-American
employees to sexual and racial harassment. The EEOC also found that the company
retaliated against employees who complained about the harassment or
discrimination. In addition to the monetary relief, the conciliation agreement
provides ensures that during the next five years, Ford will conduct regular
training at the two Chicago-area facilities; continue to disseminate its
anti-harassment and anti-discrimination policies and procedures to employees
and new hires; report to EEOC regarding complaints of harassment and/or related
discrimination; and monitor its workforce regarding issues of alleged sexual or
racial harassment and related discrimination.</span></div>

June 2017, the EEOC investigated a restaurant operating over 100 facilities in
the Eastern U.S. involving issues of hiring discrimination against African
Americans. The restaurant agreed to pay $9.6 million to class members as part
of a conciliation agreement. Additionally, the restaurant will overhaul its
hiring procedures and has agreed to institute practices aimed at meeting hiring
targets consistent with the labor market in each of the locations in which it
has facilities. The new hiring procedures include implementation of an
extensive applicant tracking system that will better enable the EEOC and the
company to assess whether the company is meeting the targeted hiring levels.
The restaurant will also provide an annual report to EEOC detailing the
company's efforts in complying with the agreement and its objectives over the
term of the five-year agreement, including detailed hiring assessments for each
facility covered by the agreement.</span></div>

discrimination lawsuit brought by the EEOC against 13 restaurants in the
Chicago area. The chain was charged with refusing to hire African-American
applicants and having managers who used racial slurs to refer to
African-Americans. The monetary award will be paid to African-American
applicants who were denied jobs. Pursuant to a consent decree, the chain also
agreed to hiring goals with the aim of having 11 percent of its future workforce
be African American. Rosebud is also required to recruit African-American
applicants as well as train employees and managers about race discrimination.

harassment filed with the EEOC. An investigation by the EEOC's Minneapolis Area
Office revealed that the mattress and box spring manufacturing company in St.
Paul, Minn. subjected its Black and Hispanic employees to severe racial
harassment in the form of KKK hoods, nooses, and racial slurs and jokes. The

The EEOC alleged that the
Defendants, a health care management system and nursing home discriminated
against African employees, specifically employees from Ethiopia and Sudan, when
it terminated four personal care providers all on the same day, allegedly for
failing to pass a newly instituted written exam. The EEOC brought disparate
impact and treatment claims based on race and national origin, and a
retaliation claim for a white supervisor who stood up for the African workers
and was fired several months before the test was instituted. Defendants moved
for dismissal arguing (1) Africa is not a nation and so cannot serve as the
basis of a national origin claim, (2) EEOC failed to allege any shared cultural
or linguistic characteristics between the aggrieved individuals so they could
not constitute a protected class; and (3) the EEOC's retaliation claim must be
dismissed because EEOC failed to allege protected activity or the Defendants
had knowledge of the white supervisor's motivations. The Magistrate Judge
recommended that the motion be denied in total. EEOC v. Columbine Health Sys.

June 2016, the EEOC obtained a $350,000 settlement in its race discrimination
lawsuit against defendant FAPS, Inc., a company located at Port Newark, N.J.,
involved in the processing for final sale of shipped automobiles. In this case,
the Commission alleged that the company engaged in a pattern-or-practice of
race discrimination by relying on word-of-mouth hiring which resulted in a
predominantly white workforce despite the substantial African-American
available workforce in the Newark area. The agency further alleged that FAPS
refused to hire qualified African-American candidates, including by telling
them that no positions were available when in fact FAPS was hiring. Finally,
the EEOC alleged that FAPS' employment application contained improper pre-employment
medical inquiries in violation of the ADA. Besides the monetary compensation,
the five year consent decree requires FAPS to meet substantial hiring goals for
African-Americans; give hiring priority to rejected class members who are
interested in working at the company; use recruiting methods designed to
increase the African-American applicant pool; and hire an EEO coordinator to

discrimination claims against the local union. Pursuant to the settlement, it

sheet metal journeypersons in northern New Jersey, allegedly discriminated

October 2015, a federal judge held that the operators of an Indianapolis
Hampton Inn in contempt for failing to comply with five different conditions
settling the EEOC's class race discrimination and retaliation lawsuit against
the companies. The judge faulted Noble Management LLC and New Indianapolis
Hotels for failing to: (1) properly post notices; (2) properly train management
employees; (3) keep employment records; (4) institute a new hiring procedure
for housekeeping employees; and (5) reinstate three former housekeeping
employees. The judge also faulted Noble and New Indianapolis Hotels for comingling
of medical records in employee personnel files. As background, the EEOC filed
suit against operators New Indianapolis Hotels LLC and Noble Management LLC in
September 2010, alleging that their Hampton Inn fired African-American
housekeepers because of their race and in retaliation for complaints about race
discrimination. The agency also charged that the hotel paid lower wages to
Black housekeepers, excluded Black housekeeping applicants on a systemic basis,
and failed to maintain records required by law in violation of Title </span><st1:stockticker><span lang="EN" style="font-family: "calibri"; line-height: 115%; margin: 0px;">VII</span></st1:stockticker><span lang="EN" style="font-family: "calibri"; line-height: 115%; margin: 0px;">. In September 2012, the judge
entered a five-year consent decree resolving the EEOC's litigation against the
hotel operators. The decree provided $355,000 in monetary relief to
approximately 75 African-American former housekeeping employees and applicants
and required training, notice posting, reinstatement of three former
housekeeping employees, a new hiring procedure for housekeeping employees and
ordered that the defendants maintain employment-related records. </span></div>

enjoined the operators from race discrimination and retaliation in the future.
In March 2014, following the filing of the EEOC's contempt motion, Judge
Lawrence ruled that the defendants violated the terms of the 2012 decree and
ordered Defendants to pay more than $50,000 in back wages to the three former
housekeepers whose reinstatement was delayed. Defendants were also ordered to:
(1) provide monthly reporting to the EEOC on compliance with the new hiring
procedure, recordkeeping and posting; (2) pay fines for late reporting; (3)
allow random inspections by the EEOC subject to a fine, for failure to grant
access; (4) pay fines for failure to post, destroying records or failing to
distribute employment applications; (5) provide EEOC with any requested employment
records within 15 days of a request; (6) cease comingling medical records; and
(7) train management employees. The posting and training provisions of the
Decree were also extended by two years. In November 2015, the judge awarded
$50,515 in fees and $6,733.76 in costs to the EEOC because the "Defendants

September 2015, BMW Manufacturing Co. settled for $1.6 million and other relief
an EEOC lawsuit alleging that the company's criminal background check policy
disproportionately affects black logistics workers at a South Carolina plant.
Specifically, the EEOC alleged that after learning the results of the criminal
background checks around July 2008, BMW denied plant access to 88 logistics
employees, resulting in their termination from the previous logistics provider
and denial of hire by the new logistics services provider for work at BMW. Of
those 88 employees, 70 were Black. Some of the logistics employees had been
employed at BMW for several years, working for the various logistics services
providers utilized by BMW since the opening of the plant in 1994. Under the
terms of a consent decree signed by Judge Henry M. Herlong of the U.S. District
Court for the District of South Carolina, the $1.6 million will be shared by 56
known claimants and other black applicants the EEOC said were shut out of BMW's
Spartanburg, S.C., plant when the company switched to a new logistics
contractor. In addition to the monetary relief, the company will provide each
claimant who wishes to return to the facility an opportunity to apply for a
logistics position. BMW will also notify other applicants who have previously
expressed interest in a logistics position at the facility of their right to
apply for work, the decree states. BMW has implemented a new criminal
background check policy and will continue to operate under that policy
throughout the three-year term of the decree. The company is expressly enjoined
from "utilizing the criminal background check guidelines" challenged
by the EEOC in its lawsuit, the decree states. The agreement also imposes on
BMW notice-posting, training, record-keeping, reporting and other requirements.

November 2012, a federal court ordered Caldwell Freight Lines, a now defunct
company, to pay $120,000 to settle a race discrimination complaint stemming
from its alleged refusal to hire Black applicants to work on its loading dock
even though it is no longer in business. According to the EEOC's lawsuit, 51
African American applicants sought work with Caldwell Freight and none was
hired even though many had previous dock experience and were qualified for the
positions. An EEOC investigation revealed that the company hired no Black dock
workers during the period studied and that one high-level manager allegedly
said he "didn't want any [B]lacks on the dock." Under the terms of
the consent decree, if the company resumes operations, it will have to
implement an anti-discrimination policy and report to the EEOC all
discrimination complaints and information regarding its hiring practices during
the term of the decree. EEOC v. Caldwell Freight Lines, Case No. 5:11CV00134

October 2012, a federal district court in Texas ordered AA Foundries Inc. to
take specific measures to prevent racial harassment of Black employees at its
San Antonio plant following a $200,000 jury verdict finding the company liable
for race discrimination under Title VII. According to the EEOC, evidence at
trial indicated that a White supervisor used "the N word" in
reference to Black employees, called male Black employees "motherfucking
boys," posted racially tinged materials in an employee break room, and
accused Black employees of "always stealing and wanting welfare."
After several employees filed racial harassment charges with the EEOC, a noose
was displayed in the workplace. When some employees complained, the supervisor
allegedly replied the noose was "no big deal" and that workers who
complained were "too sensitive." Additionally, at trial, he also
admitted it did not bother him to hear racially derogatory language in the
workplace. In a judgment entered Oct. 9, the district court upheld the jury
verdict that AA Foundries must pay punitive damages of $100,000 to former
employee Christopher Strickland, $60,000 to former employee Leroy Beal, and
$40,000 to former employee Kenneth Bacon. Because trial evidence also showed
that AA Foundries lacked effective internal procedures to handle discrimination
complaints, it must conduct at least one hour of equal employment opportunity
training for all employees within 60 days of the court's Oct. 9 order. The
company must distribute copies of its revised written anti-harassment policy to
all current and future employees and post the policy in the break room of its
San Antonio manufacturing facility. Every employee shall be notified of the
procedure for initiating racial harassment or other bias complaints, including
notice of their right to file EEOC charges if the company does not resolve
their complaint. EEOC v. AA Foundries Inc., No. 11-792 (W.D. Tex. judgment and

"niggers," East Indian drivers as "Taliban" and "camel
jockeys," and a Latino manager as a "spic." EEOC also charged
Scully gave non-White drivers less favorable job assignments than their White

August 2012, a Tampa, Fla.-based environmental services company agreed to
settle a race discrimination and harassment case brought by the EEOC and eleven
intervening plaintiffs for $2,750,000 and other relief. In the lawsuit, EEOC
alleged that the harassment of African American employees included multiple
displays of nooses, the repeated use of the "N-word," and physical
threats. The EEOC also claimed that four White employees were harassed by their
White co-workers because they associated with African-American employees. Two
African-American employees also alleged they were fired because of their race
and two White employees asserted they were fired for engaging in protected
activity and in retaliation for associating with African-American employees. At
summary judgment, the district court denied in part the company's motion,
stating that the company ignored both the extreme symbolism of a noose and that
a reasonable jury could conclude that the worksite had at least some racial
tension given the other nooses, threats, and racial epithets that each
African-American employee experienced, and that the noose was intended to
intimidate all African-Americans. The court also found that a reasonable jury
could decide that Defendant failed to exercise reasonable care to prevent or
remedy the harassment since it did not distribute its written policy forbidding
racial harassment to its employees, post it at the job-site, or train the
employees about what constitutes harassment and how to report it. </span></div>

<span lang="EN" style="font-family: "calibri"; line-height: 115%; margin: 0px;">The court, however, determined that Defendant
was entitled to summary judgment on the hostile work environment claims brought
on behalf of the White employees because injury must be personal and thus a
White employee cannot sue for harassment of African-American employees that the
White employee happened to see. Lastly, intervening Plaintiff provided direct
evidence that the supervisor who fired him did so because of his race (through
the supervisor's comment that he could get rid of "that . . . nigger. 2011

June 2012, Yellow Transportation Inc. and YRC Inc. agreed to settle for $11
million an EEOC suit alleging that the trucking companies permitted the racial
harassment of Black employees at a now-closed Chicago Ridge, Ill., facility.
The proposed consent decree would settle both EEOC's suit and a private suit
filed in 2008 by 14 Black employees under the Civil Rights Act of 1866 (42
U.S.C. § 1981), which were consolidated for purposes of settlement. In its
complaint, the EEOC claimed that Black employees at the Chicago Ridge facility,
which closed in 2009, were subjected to multiple incidents of hangman's nooses
and racist graffiti, comments, and cartoons. EEOC claimed that Yellow and YRC
also subjected Black employees to harsher discipline and closer scrutiny than
their White counterparts and gave Black employees more difficult and
time-consuming work assignments. Although numerous Black employees complained
about these conditions, Yellow and YRC failed to act to correct the problems,

discrimination in hiring against Rosebud Restaurants, the U.S. Equal Employment
Opportunity Commission (EEOC) announced today. In its complaint, the EEOC
charged that the Chicago-area Italian restaurant chain violated federal civil
rights laws by refusing to hire African-Americans because of their race. The
company's motion to dismiss argued that the EEOC's complaint should be
dismissed because it did not identify the victims of the alleged hiring
discrimination. the court rejected that argument, concluding that the EEOC's

June 2013, the EEOC and J.B. Hunt Transport Inc. settled a race discrimination
charge alleging the nationwide transportation company engaged in unlawful race
discrimination by rejecting a Black truck driver applicant because of a prior
criminal conviction unrelated to his prospective job duties. The settlement
follows conciliation of an EEOC charge under Title VII of the 1964 Civil Rights
Act over claims that an African-American job candidate was denied a truck
driver position at a J.B. Hunt facility in San Bernardino, Calif., in 2009
based on a criminal conviction record, which the EEOC contends was unrelated to
the duties of the job. The federal agency also reviewed the company's broader
policy with respect to the hiring of job applicants with conviction records.
Blanket prohibitions are not in accordance with the agency's policy guidance on
the subject, which was reissued on April 25, 2010. The EEOC's guidance
recommends evaluating: the nature and gravity of the offense or conduct; the
time that has passed since the conviction and/or completion of the sentence;
and the nature of the job sought prior to disqualifying a candidate with such a
record. J.B. Hunt also reached a private settlement with the alleged
discrimination victim, who filed an EEOC charge after being denied a job at
J.B. Hunt's San Bernardino, Calif., facility in 2009. As part of a five-year
conciliation agreement, J.B. Hunt agreed to review and, if necessary, revise
its hiring and selection policies to comply with EEOC's April 2012 enforcement
guidance regarding employers' use of arrest and conviction records. The EEOC
will monitor compliance with the conciliation agreement. The EEOC entered into

Pro stores nationwide and that managers at Bass Pro stores in the Houston area,
in Louisiana, and elsewhere made overtly racially derogatory remarks

$140,000 against a Mississippi U-Haul company. The company was accused of
discriminating on the basis of race when it hired the son of a selecting
official rather than a veteran African American manager, to serve as the
company's marketing company president. The Black manager had worked for U-Haul
for ten years as a reservation manager, assistant manager, general manager,
area field manager and field relief manager, and held a bachelor's degree in
business manage¬ment as well as having received various awards for performance.
The company, however, altered the job's requirements and hired the executive's
son who lacked a college degree and had scanty experience compared with the
Black manager. The manager complained and the company disciplined and fired
him. The company has agreed to adopt an online employee handbook and other
documents spelling out company policies and practices; to post all vacancies
for marketing company president; to provide training on discrimination and
retaliation to all board members; and to provide periodic reports to the EEOC.

December 2010, a company which provides in-home care certified nursing
assistants (CNAs) and non-CNAs to seniors in Anne Arundel County and Howard
County, Maryland agreed to settle claims alleging that it discriminated based
on race in assigning caregivers. According to the EEOC's lawsuit, the company
coded the preferences of clients who requested White caregivers, and made
assignments based on the preferences. For example, "circle dots"
referred to the clients that preferred Caucasian caregivers. The facility
claimed that it ceased the coding practice in 2008, but admitted that it
continued to take client racial preferences into account in making caregiver
assignments. The 5-year consent decree provides $150,000 in compensatory damages
to be distributed to claimants (defined as all caregivers employed by defendant
from October 2007 through entry of the decree) in amounts determined by EEOC
based on length of service and employment status. The decree enjoins the
company from racial coding and prohibits race-based caregiver assignments. The
injunction survives the decree. Where a client indicates a preference not to
have a caregiver of a certain race, and there is a risk that the client will
become violent, the facility will notify the caregiver, who can choose to
refuse the assignment. The company also will provide 2 hours of training
annually to recruiters and HR personnel on Title VII, with a special emphasis

terms of a consent decree to settle an EEOC lawsuit alleging the Georgia farm
favored foreign-born employees over African American and Caucasian domestic
workers in employment. Specifically, the suit alleged that Baker Farms gave
American-born workers fewer hours and tasks compared with the foreign-born
workers and discharged U.S.-born white and African-American employees based on
their race or national origin. The lawsuit also alleged that Baker Farms
segregated work crews by national origin and race. The U.S.-born employees were
allegedly subjected to tougher production standards and sent home early on days
in which the foreign-born workers continued to work. The settlement requires
Baker Farms to stop discriminatory practices on the basis of national origin or

nationals who receive a visa to fill temporary agricultural jobs, without first
considering American workers and institute a formal anti-discrimination policy
by Aug. 1, in addition to the monetary relief. The two-year consent decree also

judgment on the Commission's race segregation claim brought pursuant to 42
U.S.C. § 2000e-2(a)(2), Title VII's subsection prohibiting the limiting,
classifying, or segregating of employees based on a protected trait. The court
"assume[d] for the sake of argument" that the evidence created a
material factual dispute about whether AutoZone intentionally segregated its
Black employee Kevin Stuckey because of his race when it transferred him out of
a predominantly Hispanic-staffed store. But it concluded that a jury would not
find the lateral transfer had adversely affected Stuckey's employment since he
suffered no reduction in pay, benefits, or responsibilities and it did not
"alter his conditions of employment in a detrimental way."
Nonetheless, the court rejected AutoZone's argument, accepted by the district
court below, that the absence of an "adverse employment action"
defeats a claim under § 2000e-2(a)(2). It ruled that 42 U.S.C. § 2000e-2(a)(2)
requires only that the transfer had a "tendency to deprive a person of
employment opportunities," but concluded that there was "[n]o

Department of Defense (Agency) had discriminated against Complainant when it
did not select him for an Assistant Special Agent in Charge position. Following
a hearing, the AJ found that the Agency failed to articulate a legitimate,
nondiscriminatory reason for Complainant's non-selection. While the Agency
asserted that Complainant was not promoted because he did not pass an annual
physical fitness exam, Agency managers testified that the supervisory position
would involve more administrative work than Complainant's position and there
would not be a substantial change in the physical requirements. Further, the AJ
noted that the selection criteria was changed for one candidate who did not
meet the requirements but not for Complainant. Complainant also stated that the
Director, who was extensively involved in the selection yet did not testify at
the hearing, made several comments that revealed a discriminatory intent. The
AJ questioned the Director's credibility, finding that there were considerable
gaps in the Director's statements. The Commission affirmed the AJ's findings on
appeal, and noted that even if the Agency met its burden of providing a
legitimate reason for Complainant's non-selection, the evidence supported a
finding of pretext. Specifically, Complainant was considered the best candidate
by his second-level supervisor, and the record showed that Complainant was
better qualified than the selectee. The Agency was ordered, among other things,
to place Complainant into the position or a similar position, with appropriate
back pay and benefits, and pay him proven compensatory damages. Kenny C. v.

March 2010, the EEOC upheld an Administrative Judge's determination that a
federal agency discriminated against a Black employee on the basis of race when
it terminated the complainant's participation in a training program. The record
showed that complainant was not rated as "marginal" and that the
Manager who made the decision to terminate complainant conceded that
complainant passed all required tests. Further, the Manger did not consult with
the instructors before making the decision, but instead relied upon one
individual who was clearly hostile toward complainant and who the AJ found was
not credible. Additionally, the environment was not favorable to Black
recruits. Two witnesses testified that they heard someone remark "one down
and two to go" when complainant turned in his equipment following his
termination. At that time, there were only three Black students in the
31-person class. One week before the class was to graduate, the third and last
Black student was removed from the program. The record also revealed that it
was the agency's policy to afford remedial training and an opportunity to correct
behavior before removing candidates from the training program. The record
indicated that the policy was followed with respect to White comparatives, but
was not followed in complainant's case. The agency was ordered to, among other
things, offer complainant reinstatement into the next training program, with
back pay. Thalamus Jones v. United States Department of Energy, EEOC Appeal No.

June 2009, the EEOC overturned an AJ's finding of no discrimination in a Title
VII race discrimination case. Complainant alleged he was discriminated against
on the bases of race (African-American) and retaliation when he was not
selected for an of four vacant Risk Management Specialist positions.
Complainant applied for the position, was rated as qualified, interviewed for
the position, and was not selected. All four of the selectees were White. The
agency found no discrimination and complainant appealed. The Commission found
that the agency failed to provide a legitimate, non-discriminatory reason for the
non-selection. The agency stated that the selectees were chosen because their
skills and qualifications fit the agency's needs. The Commission found that the
agency's reasons were not sufficiently clear so that complainant could be given
a fair opportunity to rebut such reasons. The Commission also noted that the
agency did not produce any rating sheets from the interview panel, and that
complainant appeared to possess similar qualifications to the other selectees.
Thus, the Commission found that the prima facie case and complainant's
qualifications, combined with the agency's failure to provide a legitimate,
nondiscriminatory reason for complainant's non-selection, warranted a finding
of race discrimination. Because of this finding, the decision found it
unnecessary to address the basis of retaliation. As remedies, the agency was
ordered to place complainant into the Risk Management Specialist position with
back pay and consideration of compensatory damages, EEO training to responsible
agency officials, consideration of discipline for responsible agency officials,
attorneys fees order, and posting notice. Frazier v. United States Department

July 2007, the Sixth Circuit agreed in part with EEOC's amicus argument that a
district court improperly granted summary judgment against a Black
rehabilitation aide because she presented sufficient evidence - whether
categorized as "direct" or "circumstantial" - that race was
a factor motivating her employer's decision not to promote her. This evidence
included a White manager's statement that if the Black recommending official
hired the Black aide based on her the strength of her interview and her
demonstrated ability to interact and work one-on-one with clients, "people
are going to think" nonetheless that she was selected "because she
was Black." The manager hired a White candidate with more seniority. On
appeal, the circuit court decided that "the subject of race was improperly
introduced into the selection process and used as a consideration in [the] hiring
decision" and that the manager's decision was motivated by the aide's race
and not the selectee's experience or seniority. The court then reversed summary
judgment and remanded the case for trial. Brewer v. Cedar Lake Lodge, Inc., No.

their termination was coupled with race-based comments by a management
official; . provided lesser job opportunities to American workers by assigning
them to pick vegetables in fields which had already been picked by foreign

counterparts; and regularly subjected American workers to different terms and
conditions of employment, including delayed starting times and early stop
times, or denied the opportunity to work at all, while Mexican workers were

November 2009, a nationwide supplier of office products and services entered
into an 18-month consent decree, agreeing to pay $80,000 to an African American
account manager who EEOC alleged was denied appropriate wages because of his
race. According to EEOC's lawsuit, the complainant was hired as a junior
account manager in the supplier's Baton Rouge, Louisiana office with an annual
salary of $32,500, plus commissions. At the time of his hire, complainant was
told that after 6 to 8 months, he would be promoted to account manager with an
increase in his base salary. The supplier promoted complainant, but did not
increase his base salary. The salary of the complainant, the only African
American account manager in his region, was never increased despite good
performance or even when he assumed the accounts of two White employees who
left the company. The complainant resigned and was replaced by a White junior
account manager who earned a higher base salary than complainant had ever
earned as an account manager. Under the decree, the supplier will provide
web-based training to all employees at its Baton Rouge and Harahan, Louisiana
offices on Title </span><st1:stockticker><span lang="EN" style="font-family: "calibri"; line-height: 115%; margin: 0px;">VII</span></st1:stockticker><span lang="EN" style="font-family: "calibri"; line-height: 115%; margin: 0px;"> and defendant's antidiscrimination policies and complaint reporting

the EEOC's race discrimination case against a northern Arizona hospital. EEOC
had alleged that the hospital, which served parts of the Navaho Nation, paid

as "terrorists" and "crooks." Additionally, he complained
about plaintiff's request for a three-month maternity leave and refused to
transfer back her job duties when she returned to work. By failing to address
numerous comments that were open to a racially motivated interpretation, and by
circumscribing its analysis to just one comment without reviewing the totality

and retaliation lawsuit. The EEOC filed suit against the company in September
2010, charging that the company subjected Antonio and Joby Bratcher and a class
of African-American employees to racial harassment and retaliation. In a ruling
last year, Judge Dale A. Kimball found that the Bratchers and class member
James Buie were subjected to an objectively hostile work environment based on
race. The court observed that the site superintendent, Paul E. Facer, referred
to the African-American employees as "n----rs" or a variation of that
word almost every time he spoke to them. Other Holmes employees used the term
"n----r-rigging" while working there, and racist graffiti was evident
both inside and outside portable toilets on the work site. In addition to the
monetary relief, Holmes also committed to implement several affirmative steps
to prevent and address race-based conduct on the worksite. These measures
include: a comprehensive training regimen on discrimination (including racial
discrimination and harassment); discussions of harassment in work site meetings

1964 when it did nothing to stop a White male co-worker at a Whirlpool plant in
LaVergne, Tenn., from harassing an African-American female employee because of
her race and sex. The abuse lasted for two months and escalated when the
co-worker physically assaulted the Black employee and inflicted serious
permanent injuries. During a four-day bench trial, the court heard evidence
that the employee repeatedly reported offensive verbal conduct and gestures by
the co-worker to Whirlpool management before she was violently assaulted,
without any corrective action by the company. The trial also established that
the employee suffered devastating permanent mental injuries that will prevent
her from working again as a result of the assault. At the conclusion of the
bench trial, the judge entered a final judgment and awarded the employee a
total of $1,073,261 in back pay, front pay and compensatory damages on December
21, 2009. Whirlpool filed a motion to alter or amend the judgment on January
15, 2010 which the district court denied on March 31, 2011. On April 26, 2011,
Whirlpool appealed the judgment to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth
Circuit. The company withdrew its appeal on June 11, 2012 and agreed settle the
case with the EEOC and plaintiff intervener for $1 million and court costs. The
plant where the discrimination occurred had closed during the litigation

trucking company were subjected to a racially hostile work environment and
awarded them $200,000 in damages. The jury also found that one employee was

complaint filed in June 2011, EEOC alleged that, from at least May 2007 through
June 2008, one Black employee was subjected to derogatory and threatening
comments based on his race by his supervisor and co-workers, and that a
coworker mechanic displayed a noose and asked him if he wanted to "hang
from our family tree." EEOC also alleged that the mechanic also repeatedly
and regularly called the employee "nigger" and "Tyrone," a
term the co-worker used to refer to unknown black individuals. Evidence also
revealed that A.C. Widenhouse's general manager and the employee's supervisor
also regularly made racial comments and used racial slurs, such as asking him
if he would be the coon in a "coon hunt" and alerting him that if one
of his daughters brought home a Black man, he would kill them both. The
employee also frequently heard other co-workers use racial slurs such as
"nigger" and "monkey" over the radio when communicating
with each other. The second Black employee testified that, when he was hired in
2005, he was the company's only African American and was told he was the
"token black." The general manager also talked about a noose and
having "friends" visit in the middle of the night as threats to
Floyd. Both employees reported the racial harassment, but company supervisors

It also decided, however, that a jury must determine if the three Black
plaintiffs found the workplace subjectively offensive because, although their
repeated complaints indicate they were offended, a jury must resolve factual
issues raised by some co-workers' testimony that the plaintiffs actually did
not seem bothered by the harasser's conduct. Ruling on EEOC's motion for
partial summary judgment, the court said the company's admissions that site
superintendent/project manager referred to three Black plaintiff-intervenors as
"nigger" or "nigga" on a near-daily basis and told racial
jokes using those terms and other offensive epithets establishes an objective
racially hostile work environment. The court said the undisputed evidence also
indicated that human resources manager told the company's employees during a
safety meeting not to "nigger rig their jobs"; that company
management was aware the worksite's portable toilets were covered with racist
graffiti; and that other White supervisors and employees routinely used racial
epithets, including an incident where a White supervisor commented regarding
rap music being played in a van transporting employees to the worksite,
"I'm not listening to this nigger jig." When confronted by a Black
employee about the comment, the White supervisor allegedly replied: "I can

district court's decision granting summary judgment to defendant Whirlpool
Corporation in a racial hostile work environment case in which the EEOC
participated as amicus curiae. The alleged racial harassment largely involved a
serial harasser who continually used racial slurs, including various
permutations on "nigger," made references to the Ku Klux Klan openly
and on a daily basis, and left a threatening message on a coworker's husband's
answering machine. Other racially hostile incidents included White coworkers
displaying the Confederate flag on their clothing and tow motors, threatening
racial violence, making repeated references to the KKK and the n-word, telling
of racist jokes, remarking that they wished they had a "James Earl Ray
Day" as a holiday, and "laughing and talking about the Black guy that
got drugged [sic] behind a truck in Texas[,] … saying he probably deserved
it." Several of the Black plaintiffs also testified about the presence of

manager who terminated her. The Commission argued that, contrary to the
district court's requirement that the plaintiff needed to identify comparators
or a replacement to establish a prima facie case, the discriminatory comments
were direct evidence of animus and sufficient to establish a prima facie case
of discrimination as well as raise triable issues of pretext sufficient to

of discrimination sufficient to defeat summary judgment. Kilgore v. Trussville

employee was available as a comparator, complainant established a prima facie
case of discrimination by creating an inference of race and color
discrimination. Further, the Commission found that the agency failed to provide
a legitimate, nondiscriminatory reason for terminating complainant because the

company discharged a traffic clerk in a Colorado warehouse, based on his race (Black)
and in retaliation for complaining about discrimination. The traffic clerk
asserted that, prior to his discharge, his coworker, a White woman, expounded
on her view that African Americans are more athletic than Whites because they
were inbred as slaves and have an extra muscle in their legs, that she was
afraid to be around certain people of color, and that a customer was entitled

two Black employee witnesses and fired the clerk in part for the hood and cross
comment he made. Neither the White coworker nor the supervisors who witnessed
the racial incidents were disciplined. The 3-year consent decree enjoins

June 2015, Pioneer Hotel, Inc. in Laughlin, Nevada agreed to pay $150,000 and
furnish other relief to settle a national origin and color discrimination
lawsuit filed by the EEOC. The EEOC charged that a class of Latino and/or
brown-skinned workers was subjected to a barrage of highly offensive and
derogatory comments about their national origin and/or skin color since at
least 2006. Housekeeping and security department staffers in particular were
constantly the targets of slurs by several supervisors and co-workers. In
addition, the EEOC asserted that Latino / brown-skinned workers were told not to
speak Spanish during their break times. Pioneer failed to stop and rectify the
harassment and discrimination despite repeated complaints by the Latino /
brown-skinned workers. Pioneer entered into a four-year consent decree that
prohibits Pioneer from creating, facilitating or permitting a hostile work

March 2012, a Fairfax County, Va.-based stone contracting company agreed to pay
$40,000 and furnish other significant relief to settle an EEOC lawsuit alleging
national origin, religion and color discrimination. According to the EEOC's
suit, an estimator and assistant project manager was subjected to derogatory
comments from his supervisors, project manager and the company's owner on the
basis of his national origin (Pakistani), religion (Islam), and color (brown).
The lawsuit indicated that the comments occurred almost daily and included
things like telling the estimator he was the same color as human feces. The
lawsuit also alleged that the estimator was told that his religion (Islam), was
"f---ing backwards," and "f---ing crazy," and was asked why
Muslims are such "monkeys." Pursuant to the three-year consent decree
enjoining the company from engaging in any further discrimination against any
person on the basis of color, national origin, or religion, the contracting
company also agreed to redistribute the company's anti-harassment policy to

Complainant discussed her experience as Acting Division Secretary in her KSA
responses, and, contrary to the Agency's assertion, made numerous references to

predominantly White neighborhood and that she should change her dark skin color
if she wanted to work in the area. EEOC asserted that the supervisor also
allegedly told her that she really should be working in Harlem with her dark
skin color and threatened to terminate her if she did not accept a demotion and
a transfer to the Harlem store. The employee also was subjected to national
origin discrimination based on her name and accent when the district supervisor
allegedly excluded the employee from staff meetings because he said the other
employees could not understand her accent and asked her to change her name
because the customers could not pronounce it. The consent decree enjoins the

charge of race harassment filed with the EEOC. A former attorney for the County
of Kauai's Office of the Prosecuting Attorney, who is Caucasian, alleged that
she was harassed due to her race by a top-level manager. The manager allegedly
made continually disparaging comments to the former attorney, saying that she
needed to assimilate more into the local culture and break up with her
boyfriend at the time, also White, in favor of a local boy. The EEOC ultimately
found reasonable cause to believe that the county violated Title VII of the
Civil Rights Act of 1964 for the harassment to which the former attorney was
subjected. Following the determination, the County of Kauai entered into an
over two-year conciliation agreement with the EEOC and the alleged victim.
Aside from the monetary relief, the county agreed to establish policies and
complaint procedures dealing with discrimination and harassment in the

coroner, who is African American. Among other reasons for removal, the coroner
testified that he disagreed with Linehan's attempts to discipline certain
subordinate employees. The Court decided that there was substantial evidence to
support the Commission's determination that the coroner's reasons for Linehan's
demotion and subsequent termination were pretextual. In its view, the coroner's
"lack of credibility, combined with his stated preference for employing
African-Americans and his actions taken in furtherance of that goal, was
sufficient for the EEOC to find that Linehan was subjected to race
discrimination." However, the court vacated the $200,000 compensatory

December 2016, the EEOC affirmed the Administrative Judge's (AJ) finding of
race and age discrimination involving a 47-year old Black applicant. Following
a hearing, the AJ found that the U.S. Department of Agriculture (Agency)
discriminated against Complainant on the bases of race and age when it did not
select him for a Contracting Officer position. The AJ determined that
Complainant's qualifications were plainly superior to the Selectee's
qualifications in that Complainant had more years of contracting experience,
had contracting experience involving more complex matters and higher monetary
amounts, and had more years of supervisory experience. The AJ also found that
the Selecting Official's testimony about the Selectee's qualifications was not
credible and was not supported by the documentation in the record. On appeal,
the Commission concluded that the AJ's finding was supported by substantial
evidence, and agreed with the AJ that the Agency's legitimate,
nondiscriminatory reason for not selecting Complainant was a pretext for race
and age discrimination. While the Agency asserted that the Selecting Official's
selection history precluded a finding of discrimination, the Commission stated
that selection history is not controlling, and the AJ reasonably relied upon
Complainant's prior performance appraisal as an indicator of his performance.
Further, the AJ was entitled to draw a reasonable inference from the fact that
the Selecting Official did not contact Complainant's supervisor despite having
contacted the Selectee's most recent supervisor. The Agency was ordered, among
other things, to offer Complainant the position, pay him appropriate back pay

lawsuit alleged that that Wells Fargo Financial failed to promote a highly

race. The loan processor applied for a promotion but was passed over for five
lesser qualified Caucasian women aged between 23 and 30 who were based in
various other branch offices, even though the processor had the best
combination of relevant, objective scores that measured productivity, was
"loan processor of the year" for 2007, the year immediately preceding

to a 50-year-old White male used car salesperson (Robinson) and a 50-year-old
African American male used car salesperson (Cotton). EEOC alleged that an
African American male sales supervisor subjected Cotton to derogatory comments
about his age and made sexual advances towards him. The supervisor also
allegedly threatened Robinson, that he would "get back at" him for
the "terrible things whites had done to blacks" in the past and
allegedly berated him for being "too old" for the job and
"washed up" in the industry. Robinson reported the misconduct to
several managers, but rather than taking corrective action, the director of
used cars joined in the harassing conduct. Robinson later transferred to a
lower-paid sales position to avoid the sales supervisor, but the sales
supervisor ultimately transferred to a position in finance where he was
responsible for approving paperwork on all sales, and he refused to process any
of Robinson's sales transactions, causing Robinson to resign the same month.

postal workers were routinely assigned to "the Box," as it was

not confidential, certain employees were never interviewed, the harassment was
not reported to the corporate office, critical corroborating evidence was lost,

September 2004, an AJ determined that a Black male complainant was subjected to
race discrimination when he was not selected for an EEO Specialist (Mediator)
position despite having performed the duties of the position in the area in
which he applied. Testimony in the record showed that the approving official
was biased against those of complainant's race, particularly males. In
addition, it was suspected that none of the seven members of complainant's race
who had been performing the Mediator duties were selected for the position,
while the one individual outside of complainant's race was chosen. See

Norman Park, Ga., has agreed to pay $500,000 to a class of American seasonal
workers - many of them African-American - who, the EEOC alleged, were subjected
to discrimination based on their national origin and/or race. The EEOC's suit
had charged that the company unlawfully engaged in a pattern or practice of
discrimination against American workers by firing virtually all American
workers while retaining workers from Mexico during the 2009, 2010 and 2011 growing
seasons. The agency also alleged that Hamilton Growers fired at least 16
African-American workers in 2009 based on race and/or national origin as their
termination was coupled with race-based comments by a management official.
Additionally, the lawsuit charged that Hamilton Growers provided lesser job
opportunities to American workers by assigning them to pick vegetables in
fields which had already been picked by foreign workers, which resulted in
Americans earning less pay than their Mexican counterparts. Pursuant to the
consent decree settling the suit, the Hamilton Growers will exercise good faith
in hiring and retaining qualified workers of American national origin and
African-American workers for all farm work positions, including supervisory
positions. Hamilton Growers will also implement non-discriminatory hiring
measures, which include targeted recruitment and advertising, appointment of a
compliance official, and training for positive equal employment opportunity
management practices. The company has also pledged, among other things, to
create a termination appeal process; extend rehire offers to aggrieved
individuals from the 2009-2012 growing seasons; provide transportation for
American workers which is essential to viable employment in that part of the
country; and limit contact between the alleged discriminating management
officials and American workers. The decree also provides for posting
anti-discrimination notices, record-keeping and reporting to the EEOC. EEOC v.

March 2013, a not-for-profit developer of real estate, offices, and facilities
around Grand Central Terminal in New York City paid $135,000 to settle a
lawsuit filed by EEOC. The EEOC's lawsuit asserted that a non-Rastafarian security
officer threatened to shoot a group of Rastafarian officers. When the
Rastafarians complained, a white security supervisor made light of the physical
threat and implied the Rastafarians were at fault. One Rastafarian security
officer objected to the supervisor's reaction and complained that he heard the
supervisor had referred to the Rastafarians by the "N-word." The
Rastafarian security officer immediately contacted EEOC about the incident. The
EEOC had previously sued the developer for failing to accommodate the religious
beliefs of four Rastafarian employees who needed modifications to its dress
code. That lawsuit was resolved by a 2009 consent decree which prohibited Grand
Central Partnership from retaliating against Rastafarian security officers for
their participation in the lawsuit, but the developer's current conduct
constituted a breach of the earlier consent decree. In addition to the monetary
relief, the new consent decree requires the developer to conduct extensive
training on investigating discrimination complaints, including methods for
proper documentation and unbiased assessment of witness credibility. The decree
also requires developer to regularly report to EEOC about any further
complaints of religious discrimination or retaliation. EEOC v. Grand Central

EEOC alleged that the company failed to accommodate the Muslim workers' religious
beliefs by hindering their prayer breaks and Ramadan observances, and that
supervisors and co-workers harassed the Somali workers by uttering vulgar
epithets and throwing bones, meat, and blood at them. In September 2008, the
company locked out, suspended, and ultimately fired Somali Muslim employees in
Greeley who had walked outside the plant to break their Ramadan fasts, EEOC
alleged. The company claimed the entire case should be dismissed either because
EEOC failed to join the relevant local union, which the company believed was a
necessary party to the litigation, EEOC failed to conciliate the discrimination
charges, and the plaintiff-intervenors failed to exhaust their administrative
remedies. The court rejected the first two arguments, and issued a mixed ruling

areas identified by the Selecting Official, and that the Selectee's application
failed to establish relevant experience in two areas. In addition, one of the
individuals on the interview panel stated that the Selectee was not completely
qualified for the position. The Agency also appeared to have violated its Merit
Promotion Plan by having a lower-level employee participate in the interview
panel. Therefore, the Commission found that Complainant established that the
Agency's stated reasons for her non-selection were a pretext for race and sex
discrimination. The Agency was ordered, among other things, to offer
Complainant the position or a substantially similar position, and pay her
appropriate back pay, interest, and benefits. Shayna P. v. Dep't of Homeland

case in which the EEOC participated as amicus curiae. According to the lawsuit,
three White workers at the Whirlpool plant in LaVergne, Tennessee, witnessed
numerous instances of racial hostility and slurs directed at their Black
coworkers. Because they maintained friendly relationships with, and engaged in
various acts of advocacy on behalf of, their Black coworkers, they became
targets of various threats and harassment by other White employees who were
responsible for the racial hostility directed against their Black colleagues.
The hostile conduct ranged from "cold shoulder" type behavior to the
use of the term "nigger lover," references to the KKK, and direct
threats on their lives, as well as being told to "stay with their own
kind." The Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals affirmed in part, reversed in

were subjected to a racially hostile work environment based on their

Commission as amicus curiae, the court of appeals held that there is no
prerequisite degree or type of association between two individuals of different
races in order to state a claim for associational discrimination or harassment,
so long as the plaintiff can show that she was discriminated against because of
her association with a person of a different race. The court of appeals also
held that no particular degree or type of advocacy on behalf of individuals of
a different race is required to state an associational discrimination claim
based on this theory, again, so long as a plaintiff can show that she was
discriminated against based on her advocacy on behalf of such individuals.

subjected to discriminatory harassment while in Iraq on the basis of his race
(African-American) when, among other things, the word "DAN" was used
by a coworker, which he learned meant "Dumb Ass Nigger," and
management took no action. The evidence of record established, however, that
the "DAN" comment was unlikely used in complainant's presence as he
could not recall who said it and he conceded it was not directed at him. He
also said he did not know what it meant until another employee told him and did
not report the comment to management. Instead, another employee informed
complainant's supervisor about the comment, and the supervisor promptly looked
into the matter. When the supervisor was unable to establish who made the
comment, he convened all the welders and threatened disciplinary action if the
term was used again. There was no evidence that the term or any other racial
epithet was used after this meeting. Battle v. McHugh, 2011 EEOPUB LEXIS 1063,

$1 million settlement of national origin discrimination case in which 48 Thai

White employee who is discharged because his child is biracial is discriminated
against on the basis of his race, even though the root animus for the
discrimination is a prejudice against the biracial child" because
"the essence of the alleged discrimination . . . is the contrast in
races." Tetro v. Elliott Popham Pontiac, Oldsmobile, Buick, & GMC
Trucks, Inc., 173 F.3d 988, 994-95 (6th Cir. 1999) (holding employee stated a
claim under Title VII when he alleged that company owner discriminated against
him after his biracial child visited him at work).</span></div>

<b>Not "our kind of people" …</b></div>
<br />
<b><u>UPDATE:</u></b> The recent "pay to play" <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/feds-uncover-massive-college-entrance-exam-cheating-plot-n982136" target="_blank">admissions scandal </a>where well-connected white folk made fraudulent applications, slipped bribes and did other shenanigans to get their kids into high-end universities highlights one of the reasons harder-working and smarter Asians are not getting the rewards they deserve. It also reinforces in part, the point below made about the privileged and the well-connected and the 15-30% admitted as "legacy" admissions in some elite institutions. The usual hypocritical suspects have taken to blaming "the liberals", but right-wingers do this kind of manipulation and influence buying all the time. A bunch of corporate fat cats are also under investigation. Maybe we should call this one "legacy cash" or <a href="http://nymag.com/intelligencer/2019/03/college-admissions-bribery-scandal-felicity-huffman-loughlin-analysis-explained.html" target="_blank">legacy privilege?</a><br />
But anyway...<br />
<br />
A recent class-action <a href="http://infoproc.blogspot.com/2018/06/harvard-office-of-institutional.html" target="_blank">lawsuit</a> representing some 16,000 Asian students charges that Harvard University used a semi-secret "rating" system that pegged Asian students lower on desirable personality traits. Apparently those durn Asians were not sufficiently high on "likability", and "positive personality" among other things. These lower ratings decreased Asian chances at admission to the elite school. Less Asian admissions of course means more whites. Sweet! Even more interesting, an earlier internal review of its admissions conducted by Harvard found anti-Asian bias, but Harvard swept the findings under the rug and did not act on them. Note the graph below- at top braniac school CalTech, which goes strictly by merit, Asian enrollments rise steadily, but in the socially prestigious Ivy League universities, they keep dropping.<br />

This lawsuit confirms the suspicions of many - that white people have been, and are using "informal" or hidden quotas and "caps" to keep out Asian competition, and at the same time, pushing blacks out front as scapegoats and propaganda diversions on long hollowed-out policies of "affirmative action." But the specific white quotas are only the tip of the iceberg. While lecturing about "merit," whites lock in further advantage by the widespread use of "legacy", "specialty" and "cash-connection" admissions- sons and daughters of white alumni, or those with enough cash connections, get special preferences- including a lower bar for admissions. Its another great way of keeping out those hard-working Asians who rely precisely on "merit" and not "likability" and "personality" to build up admission points.<br />
<br />
A large population of white "victim card" players has arisen attributing many of their failures to alleged "quotas" and "affirmative action." Such faultless folk, deploying a web of denial, distortion and deception, now find increasing representation in some of the <a href="http://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2015/09/guilt2-media-collaborates-with-guilt.html" target="_blank">young white population as we have seen previously</a>, even though they well know that <br />
<div>
<ul>
<li>(a) Black gains on most fronts are not the products of "Affirmative action." For example most blacks had already pulled themselves above the poverty line prior to the AA quotas of the 1970s, and black expansion in higher education is a product of things like the GI Bill, and general federal aid to ALL students not "quotas." (Sowell 1981, 1983, 2004).</li>
<li>(b) Remedial "quotas" came about first at the behest of white unions whose members were discriminated against because of union membership (Sowell 1975, op cit).They were not "invented for black people." In fact, white quotas, formal and informal, remained strongly in force well into the 1970s. It was after the civil rights victories of the mid and late 1960s that additional hard scrutiny began to be applied to white workforces, and an exasperated Nixon and his Secretary of Labor George Schulz, used that well established remedy because of white intransigence in allowing blacks fair job opportunities. Hence Nixon's "Philadelphia Plan" had to strong-arm racist unions living well off federal contracts to comply with new civil rights laws and remedy biased practices (<em>Yuli 2006. Richard Nixon and the Rise of Affirmative Action</em>). <br />General social histories of the era also note the same; wearied of their racism, and cynically prolonged negotiations, Schulz simply ordered the white dominated unions to enroll a certain number of blacks or face a cut-off of the federal gravy train. Local courts got in on the act as they forced open cosy white job protection rackets in police forces, fire departments, civil service agencies, hospitals, colleges, unions, construction firms etc.. (<em>David Frum, 2008. How We Got Here: The 70's: The decade that brought you modern life.. 240-248</em>)</li>
<li>(c) "AA quotas" in education are primarily a phenomenon at elite or "flagship" colleges and universities
(<em>Sanders 2008. Mismatch</em>), and even here, the black percentage has been hovering at around 5-6% of the <b>last 30 years</b>- and some of that percentage is in place without needing any "quotas." Similarly Black students going to dull boring State U generally do not need any "quotas" to gain admission. But banging the drum about 'quotas' gives an excellent excuse for white "victim card" slackers who cannot cut the mustard </li>
<li>(d) The primary beneficiary of "quotas" are white, specifically <a href="http://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2011/04/affirmative-action-primary.html" target="_blank">white women</a>. (Sowell 1975, Rai et al 2000, Ore 2005, Pincus 2010, Fletcher and Crosby 2012, etc)</li>
</ul>
</div>
Said white victim card players however run into a propaganda "problem" when it comes to Asians, because: (a) Asians cannot be simply scapegoated like blacks, and (b) Asians clearly outperform whites on many counts. The "two-track" solution is to "blame the blacks" up front, and quietly undercut the Asians on the back end.<br />

<br />
This reality is well detailed in books like Pulitzer-prize winning journalist Daniel Golden's The Price of Admissions, which shows that "<b><span style="color: red;">Asian American students [are held] to a higher standard than whites; comply with Title IX by giving scholarships to rich women in “patrician sports” like horseback riding, squash, and crew; and repay congressmen for favors by admitting their children. He also reveals that Harvard maintains a “Z-list” for well-connected but underqualified students, who are quietly admitted on the condition that they wait a year to enroll</span></b>."<br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><a href="https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/68794/the-price-of-admission-by-daniel-golden/9781400097975/">https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/68794/the-price-of-admission-by-daniel-golden/9781400097975/</a></span><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
In the meantime, a torrent of deceptive propaganda fills popular white culture about all the alleged blacks "swamping" white people out of university admissions due to "quotas." But while black admissions (IF using quotas) are less than 7% overall as far as top ranked or "prestige" campuses (where most of the 'affirmative action' battles are), Golden's data shows whites reaping up to 30% of special favor admissions. The share of black freshmen at elite schools is virtually unchanged
since 1980 according to a detailed NY times <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2017/08/24/us/affirmative-action.html" target="_blank">study</a> drawing on data available from the National Center for Education Statistics. Black students are just 6 percent of freshmen but 15 percent
of college-age Americans. Thus for almost 40 years, even after rising black school performances and numbers of students attending college, the percentage of blacks overall has barely budged despite hysterical "black plague" claims. Other data back this up, showing the percentage of blacks in the prestigious Ivy League to weigh in at a mere 7%, some of whom do not need quotas.<br />
<br />
Such statistics wax and wane over different surveys but the average holds roughly the same- higher one year, lower the next, an important detail to remember when confronted by cherry-picked years held up as gospel by assorted propagandists. It should also be noted that gains in the number of first-year Black students
at some universities may be due to overall <span style="color: red;">increases in the size of the
first-year class and not necessarily due to a higher percentage of Black
first-year students.</span> Thus a higher percent of incoming black students in Year X may simply be a reflection of a bigger pool of students overall being admitted in that year, not "quotas."<br />
<br />
It should be noted too that the Asian "caps" are happening in "liberal" venues- from "progressive" California to Harvard and the Ivy League above. Some of this is candidly admitted by conservative businessmen and politicians such as Ron Unz, whose own <a href="http://www.unz.com/runz/asian-quotas-in-the-ivy-league-we-see-nothing/" target="_blank">research</a> exhaustively documents anti-Asian discrimination. Unz's data brought about some howls of right wing protest for exposing the deceptive game, along with liberal denials or strategic silence. There is some question as to Unz's claims about excessive Jewish dominance, given that Jews are well represented on the "merit" track, over and above any legacy type admissions, nevertheless his work does provide a good insight on the falsehoods of assorted race baiters playing the "black menace" card. And according to a U.S. Office of Civil Rights Compliance Review, alumni/legacy children admitted to Harvard scored 35 points below the mean for all freshmen (<i>Synnott 2010. "The Half-Opened Door"</i>). What this means is that a large number of whites who would not make the cut under a normal regime of "merit," STILL gain admission, and those white performances are below some blacks who are admitted under preferences. Yet the scapegoats pushed out front to take the heat for "unfairness" are, again, the blacks. </div>

<span style="color: red;"><br /></span><span style="color: red;">Harvard consistently rated Asian-American applicants lower than others on traits like “positive personality,” likability, courage, kindness and being “widely respected,” according to an analysis of more than 160,000 student records filed Friday by a group representing Asian-American students in a lawsuit against the university.</span><span style="color: red;"><br /></span><span style="color: red;"><br /></span><span style="color: red;">Asian-Americans scored higher than applicants of any other racial or ethnic group on admissions measures like test scores, grades and extracurricular activities, according to the analysis commissioned by a group that opposes all race-based admissions criteria.

(HADLEY GREEN / The New York Times file photo)</span><span style="color: red;"><br /></span><span style="color: red;"><br /></span><span style="color: red;">The court documents, filed in federal court in Boston, also showed that Harvard conducted an internal investigation into its admissions policies in 2013 and found a bias against Asian-American applicants. But Harvard never made the findings public or acted on them.</span><span style="color: red;"><br /></span><span style="color: red;"><br /></span><span style="color: red;">The documents came out as part of a lawsuit charging Harvard with systematically discriminating against Asian-Americans, in violation of civil rights law. The suit, brought by Students for Fair Admissions, says Harvard imposes what is in effect a soft quota of “racial balancing.” This keeps the number of Asian-Americans artificially low, while advancing less qualified white, black and Hispanic applicants, the plaintiffs contend.</span><span style="color: red;"><br /></span><span style="color: red;"><br /></span><span style="color: red;">“It turns out that the suspicions of Asian-American alumni, students and applicants were right all along,” Students for Fair Admissions said in a court document. “Harvard today engages in the same kind of discrimination and stereotyping that it used to justify quotas on Jewish applicants in the 1920s and 1930s.”</span><span style="color: red;"><br /></span><span style="color: red;"><br /></span><span style="color: red;">Harvard disagreed Friday, saying that its own expert analysis showed no discrimination and that seeking diversity is a valuable part of student selection. The university lashed out at the founder of Students for Fair Admissions, Edward Blum, accusing him of using Harvard to replay a previous challenge to affirmative action in college admissions, Fisher v. the University of Texas at Austin. The Supreme Court ruled that race could be used as one of many factors in admissions.</span><span style="color: red;"><br /></span><span style="color: red;"><br /></span><span style="color: red;">“Thorough and comprehensive analysis of the data and evidence makes clear that Harvard College does not discriminate against applicants from any group, including Asian-Americans, whose rate of admission has grown 29 per cent over the last decade,” Harvard said in a statement. “Mr. Blum and his organization’s incomplete and misleading data analysis paint a dangerously inaccurate picture of Harvard College’s whole-person admissions process by omitting critical data and information factors.”</span><br />

<b><span style="color: red;">The lawsuit also confirms what has long been </span></b><b><span style="color: blue;"><a href="http://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2014/06/elite-white-universities-discriminate.html" target="_blank">argued</a></span></b><b><span style="color: red;"> on this blog- QUOTE:</span></b><br />
<br />
<b>A hard look at the patterns above helps explain the mystery of why white universities would SEEMINGLY "hurt" white student admissions with so-called "quotas for blacks" and other non-Asian minorities. Assorted "HBD" types explain it all as evil "liberal do-goodism" and "white guilt" or "self-hate." But a true "race realist" understands the REAL white game. </b><br />
<b><br /></b>
<b>While knee-jerk head count admissions may have begun as a "response" to ghetto unrest and activism in the 1960/ 1970s, those times are long gone, and in any event were closely controlled and limited. White people today are not doing it out of the goodness of their hearts. The so-called "quotas for blacks" are a smokescreen whites may be using to LIMIT ASIAN NUMBERS, via admission formulas that allow whites to gain slots on things other than strict test scores.</b> <br />
<br />
For example, lets say you get extra points for "community service" or "civic engagement." While all those Asian kids are grinding away and going to cram schools solely for the best test score number, the extra points given for "civic engagement" will favor whites, who typically, on the average, can show more of such extracurricular activity. These extra point can tip an admission slot towards a more "well rounded" white candidate, beating out the Asian with a higher number. "Community service" might be only one such "tipping" factor. <a href="http://www.nacacnet.org/studentinfo/articles/Pages/Factors-in-the-Admission-Decision.aspx" target="_blank">There are other factors that weigh in college admissions</a>- including Essay writing, Teacher recommendation, Counselor recommendation, Class rank, Portfolio, Extracurricular activities, Work and so on. These factors have helped SOME black candidates build up enough points for admission, but they <b>ALSO work in favor of whites to cut back on Asian slots</b>. <div>Think about it. Why would white people be so incredibly generous as to hurt their own via this wave of "black quotas" alleged by assorted right wingers? They aren't- for 3 reasons:<br />
<br />
<b>1) The number of black students admitted under quotas is small and AA quotas have been carefully controlled and limited since the 1970s eg. Bakke.</b> <a href="http://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2014/01/the-affirmatve-action-propaganda.html" target="_blank">As noted in earlier posts,</a> there is no vast horde of blacks on campus due to "quotas" and quotas are primarily operative on high-end campuses with very few minorities. (Gurin et al 2003. How does Racial/Ethnic Diversity Promote Education? WJBS. 27:1) found that affirmative action exists primarily in highly selective colleges that barely have more than 8-10% black students. Such campuses are not where the vast majority, the OTHER 90-92% of black students attend. The famous Hopwood decision of the late 1990s showed that in 1996-97- right before the AA ban by the court, Black enrollments weighed in at an allegedly "massive" 4.7%, of the total enrollment at the elite Texas Law school- hardly the huge wave "swamping white people" assorted propagandists would have us to believe.
And keep in mind that not all blacks admitted to these schools needed quotas. In short, as far as college education overall, affirmative action is a minor player for blacks. As far as teachers, affirmative action has been a rather small player there too:<br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: 12pt;"><i><span style="color: blue;">"The catastrophic scenarios conjured by the
neo-conservatives and the [Jewish] agencies never came to pass. In fact between
1968 and 1973, blacks' share of total university faculty jobs grew from 2.2 to
2.9 percent; with historically black colleges and universities removed from the
calculations, blacks made up only 0.9 percent of the professoriate. Over the
next twenty years, black representation among full-time faculty members grew
only .05 percent."</span></i></span><br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>2) Admission "point" systems allegedly "helping only" blacks are MORE helping whites,</b> by enabling them to bypass and squeeze ahead of Asians who may post better raw numbers. Unz's analysis suggests that certain elite institutions can manipulate a variety of factors, not because of "guilt" or "self-hate" but to help whites edge out the Asian competition- you know- via that prototypical "well rounded" candidate. Translation: less "narrow" Asian grinders on campus. A similar pattern operated to screen out Jews in years past. This landscape means that it is whites themselves, for their own agendas, who have a vested interest in preserving the "special preferences" blacks are so often bashed about. Asians threaten white preferences and privilege, hence some whites embrace the same "quotas" they rail against where blacks are concerned. They just don't want it to be too openly seen, hence profitable diversions are welcome. As one scholar notes:<br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">"Ironically, Theodore Cross and Robert Bruce
Slater, among others, have contended that 'the tremendous success of
Asian students on standardized tests may save affirmative action
programs for blacks at the most selective institutions,' including
Harvard, because 'a strict merit-based admissions system would pose a
particularly serious threat to the sacrosanct system of legacy
admissions.' According to a U.S. Office of Civil Rights Compliance
Review, alumni/ae children admitted to Harvard scored 35 points below
the mean for all freshmen.. The controversy over racial preferences
involved only the most competitive 20 percent of colleges and
universities, where the number of applicants far exceeded he number of
available places, since the overwhelming majority of institutions are
not selective. Most whites denied admissions were rejected in favor of
other white applicants, not in favor of the comparatively small number
of minorities admitted."</span><br />

<br />
<br />
<b>3) Blacks can be used as front-men and scapegoats for the above- taking the heat </b>from assorted bigots, bashers and baiters. In the meantime, behind the scenes, the admission structures are manipulated to hinder or slow down the real competition- Asians. The "Fisher" affirmative action case illustrates the point. On her own merits white student Fisher failed to qualify for admission to the University of Texas. Her grades, test scores and class ranking did not make the cut. Indeed as a<a href="https://www.propublica.org/article/a-colorblind-constitution-what-abigail-fishers-affirmative-action-case-is-r" target="_blank"> Pro Publica</a> report notes: "<i>In the hundreds of pages of legal filings, Fisher's lawyers spend almost no time arguing that Fisher would have gotten into the university but for her race.</i>" But a vast propaganda campaign arose to make her the poster child victim of "the culluds." It was a sure propaganda winner- sweet white female unjustly denied her chance in life by "quotas for blacks." Fisher was denied admission but there were 47 students with lower test scores/grades that did get in based on test scores/grades and personal achievement (community service, leadership, essays etc). Of the 47 students who did get in ahead of Fisher, 42 were white, and 5 were black or Hispanic. But almost no mention was made of the 42 white students in Fishers' court filings, or most media reports. The propaganda machines seized on the minor number of blacks/hispanics to gin up a narrative of noble struggle against evil. Fisher could still have gained entrance by going to another college and then transferring after 1-2 years, but the propaganda gift was just too good for conservative public sphere intellectuals or media operatives to pass up. It is a gift that still keeps giving over a decade later.<br />

It makes for a great propaganda narrative- an enemy "Other "to focus anger on- red meat for "the faithful" to fulminate against "the liberals" and "self-hate." But that narrative is for the gullible. As Synnott 2010 below shows- for whites the real competition is Asians, and "Affirmative action" helps cut back on Asians in favor of white alumni/legacy admits. These legacy admits generally perform below regular admittees. If strict merit was used for admissions, many more white people would never make it, and more slots would be taken up by Asians.<br />
<br />
Blacks serve as diversionary flak-catchers and smokescreens. They can also be used to demonstrate white goodwill and progressivism- <span style="color: red;">hey- see we got things locked up here in favor of our own white people, but see, we are generous enough to give the culluds a few scraps.. heh.. heh.. focus on that, while we concentrate on the real action- keeping out those Asians..</span> Its a cynical , and successful propaganda formula- embraced by liberals (who can show how progressive they are) and conservatives (who can whip up "the base" against "the culluds" for "taking our slots"). Sweet!<br />
<br />
Of course its not only the gullible in the mix. Also there are cynical propagandists who know the real facts, but keep churning out distortions and "fake news" to screen the real deal- white profit and benefit. It is like the massive amounts of new government spending that went to schools during the desegregation era. Most of it was pocketed by white school regimes that quickly fired hundreds of black teachers and tore down numerous once thriving black schools - end result: more cash, more facilities and more jobs for mostly white people as the federal largesse flowed. <span style="color: red;">When the full picture is examined, and the easy propaganda narratives broken down, are white people really "hurting" themselves or helping themselves?</span><br />

The "alt-right" is sometimes conceived of as racist, sexist and homophobic, but the last category is being blurred quite a bit. Per several analyses, there is a fair amount of evidence that gays are being increasingly represented in "alt-right", and indeed, "alt-right" leaders and operatives may be using shrewd tactics- sex and camp (a species of flamboyance) - to attract young gay males. How so you ask? Well pilgrim, several web articles break it down, as shown below:<br />

<b>Is it simply another Fascism variant or the constant that the dread negro cometh?</b><br />
SLATE.com for example, describes vocal gay commenters and contributors in the Occidental Observer, "one of the most prominent white nationalist web publications," as invoking the standard bogeyman of "the Negro." Cue ominous musics.. But, says another prominent commenter, behind the dread Negro is the sinister Jew. Hmm...<br />
<br />
SLATE gives some other examples- QUOTE:<br />
<br />
<span style="color: blue;">"In his book The Homo and the Negro, O'Meara says that gay white men represent the best of what Western culture has to offer because of their "intelligence" and "beauty," and that "Negroes" represent the worst, being incapable of "achievement." Donovan calls women "whores" and "bitches," and, when a questioner on Reddit asked him his views of the Holocaust, responded, "What is this Holocaust thing? I'm drawing a blank."</span><span style="color: blue;"><br /></span><span style="color: blue;"><br /></span><span style="color: blue;">Gay men have been influenced by two white nationalist ideas: the "threat" posed by Islam and the "danger" posed by immigrants.</span><span style="color: blue;"><br /></span><span style="color: blue;"><br /></span><span style="color: blue;">Both have become influential figures in the alt-right; horribly, they are not the only gay men to respond to an olive branch lately offered by white nationalism. The opening of this movement to cisgender gay men is a radical change, "one of the biggest changes I've seen on the right in 40 years," says Chip Berlet, co-author of Right-Wing Populism in America. In the United States, unlike in Europe, out gay men have never been welcome in white supremacist groups. The Klan and neo-Nazi groups, the main previous incarnations of white hate in this country, were and still are violently anti-queer. And while a subset of openly gay men has always been conservative (or, as in all populations, casually racist), they never sought to join the racist right.</span><span style="color: blue;"><br /></span><span style="color: blue;"><br /></span><span style="color: blue;">That was before groups like NPI, Counter-Currents Publishing, and American Renaissance started putting out the welcome mat. Since around 2010, some (though by no means all) groups in the leadership of the white nationalist movement have been inviting out cis gay men to speak at their conferences, write for their magazines, and be interviewed in their journals. Donovan and O'Meara, far to the right of disgraced provocateur Milo Yiannopoulos, are the white nationalist movement's actual queer stars. But there are others in the ranks, like Douglas Pearce of the popular neofolk band Death in June. And there are many more gay men (and some trans women) who have been profoundly influenced by two white nationalist ideas: the "threat" posed by Islam and the "danger" posed by immigrants.</span><span style="color: blue;"><br /></span><span style="color: blue;"><br /></span><span style="color: blue;">Donovan tries to sugarcoat his own racist beliefs when speaking to his main fan base, gay men who like his macho looks and straight men from the "pickup artist" culture and the manosphere who are desperately trying to learn from him how to be manly. Instead, reverting to the other half of the Nazi playbook, he prefers to highlight his hatred for "effeminacy," feminism, and "weakness." A beautifully muscular man of 42 who has perfected a masculine scowl in the many photographs of himself he releases on his website and Facebook page, he functions as beefcake for the neofascist cause. He's parlayed his butch allure into a brand, earning money from a line of T-shirts and wrist guards that say things like BARBARIAN and a series of books that seek to instruct both straight and gay men in how to become more masculine and in particular, more "violent."</span><span style="color: blue;"><br /></span><span style="color: blue;"><br /></span><span style="color: blue;">One of my Facebook friends, a politically liberal gay man I'll call Frank, is a fan of Donovan's Facebook page "because of the visuals. I like his looks-I mean, he's bald with tattoos. He really exudes a lot of sex." Frank also likes that Donovan "trashes that whole gay club scene," which Frank finds conformist and alienating.</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;"><br /></span><span style="color: blue;">But when Donovan says violence, he means violence. This is not BDSM. "The ability to use violence effectively is the highest value of masters," Donovan said in a 2017 speech at a fascist think tank in Germany. "It is the primary value of those who create order, who create worlds. Violence is a golden value. Violence rules. Violence is not evil-it is elemental." Though Donovan tries to mine the latent sexiness in violence for all it's worth, he is, in fact, against consensual BDSM, condemning it in a 2010 essay as part of a long list of evils that he feels has been perpetuated by gay culture: the "extreme promiscuity, sadomasochism, transvestism, transsexuality, and flamboyant effeminacy" promoted by "the pink-haired, punk rock stepchildren of feminism," gay activists. No, it's straight-up people hurting and killing other people he's endorsing.</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;"><br /></span><span style="color: blue;">And what is all this violence for? Creating small, decentralized "homelands" in this country separated by-surprise!-race. He enthusiastically embraces an idea the alt-right calls "pan-secessionism," under which, as Donovan says in his book A Sky Without Eagles, "gangs" of white men would form "autonomous zones" for themselves and white women, where women "would not be permitted to rule or take part in … political life." The gangs would enforce racial boundary lines, because, as Donovan puts it, whites have "radically different values [and] cultures" than other people, and "loyalty requires preference. It requires discrimination."</span><br />

<br />
Sho nuff. The racist Donovan at least can be appreciated for his honesty- no mealy-mouthed code words, obfuscations and dog whistle narratives- but straight up racism, and proudly gay.
Excellent. It is good to know who you are dealing with, as Malcolm X often said.
No doubt the execrations of Jim Crow were "necessary"- just as various "alt" rightists argue that Jewish liquidation was "understandable," given Jewish "parasitism" an socio-political aggression on the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Culture_of_Critique_series" target="_blank">host body</a> of societies, among other things.<br />
<br />
The reader of course, would notice that among the most prominent faces of the movement, is the virulently anti-female and anti-feminist Milo Yiannopoulos, out of public favor now due to various scandals, but still widely referenced in the community, and hailed for his classic agent provocateur work. Milo is old news now, but a number of gays, some not as extreme as Donovan, have arisen to continue some variant of his basic methods and spiels.<br />
<br />
Another interesting thing from the above SLATE piece is who laid out the welcome mat to gay participation - it is "establishment" racialists, hereditarians and right-wingers, like American Renaissance, and indeed, in extension, as SLATE notes:<span style="color: blue;">"since around 2010, some (though by no means all) groups in the leadership of the white nationalist movement have been inviting out cis gay men to speak at their conferences, write for their magazines, and be interviewed in their journals."</span><br />

<b><br />Is it immigrants, or the dread negro? </b>SLATE also holds that:<b><br /><span style="color: blue;">"Gay men have been influenced by two white nationalist ideas: the "threat" posed by Islam and the "danger" posed by immigrants."</span></b><br />
<b></b><br />
This may be so, but only in part. The other huge part, which Slate does not go into much, is the strong streak of racism already present in some segments of the gay community. Part of this is generalized white racism that appears in people who happen to be gay, but a significant slice of the problem may originate in gay culture itself some claim, whether it be latent psychological fear of domination/penetration by the "monstrous negro" (a la the analyses of Franz Fanon- see Han 2007 below) or the beauty standards of gay culture which give short shrift to those that don't meet the white ideal. The well buttressed article by Han (2007), lays out the case in detail:<br />

<span style="color: blue;">Despite the civil rights dialogue used by the gay community, many 'gay' organizations and members of the 'gay' community continue to exclude men of color from leadership positions and 'gay' establishments, thus continuing to add to the notion that 'gay' equals 'white'. Likewise, gay men of color experience homophobia within their racial and ethnic communities. In this paper, I discuss both the subtle and the blatant forms of racial exclusion practised in the 'gay' community as well as the homophobia found in racial and ethnic communities to examine how such practices affect gay men of color, particularly their self-esteem and their emotional well-being."</span><br />
<br />
Among other things Han discusses the outright discrimination against gay men of color in bars, baths, nightclubs and other social meeting places (some of it violating the Civil Rights Act of 1964). Then there is the matter of painful personal rejection dealt out to many gays of color on top of the discrimination. Sometimes the bias is subtle. A gay black man for example might be asked for 3 or 4 forms of ID before being allowed to enter a predominantly white gay club, but if you are white, no such extra "screening" is done. The subtle aim of course is to discourage the presence of "cullud" gays, in white spaces. Now where have we seen such tactics befo' pilgrim? Says Han:<br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: red;">Gays of color as invisible or fetish objects for white consumption- <u>QUOTE</u>:</span></b><br />
<b></b><span style="color: red;"></span><br />
<span style="color: blue;">"Even the most perfunctory glance through gay publications exposes the paucity of non-white gay images. It’s almost as if no gay men of color exist outside of fantasy cruises to Jamaica, Puerto Rico, or the ‘Orient’. And even then, they exist only to fulfill the sexual fantasies of gay white men. ‘Exotic’ vacations to far away places are marketed to rich white men and poor colored bodies are only another consumable product easily purchased with western dollars. As such, gay men of color, whether found within western borders or conveniently waiting for white arrival in the far off corners of the globe, are nothing more than commodities for consumption.</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;"></span><br />
<span style="color: blue;">To do so, gay activists adapted various whitening practices to sell gay America to the heartland of America by: mirroring the whiteness of men who run powerful institutions as a strategy for winning credibility, acceptance, and integration; excluding people of color from gay institutions; selling gay as white to raise money, make a profit, and gain economic power; and daily wearing the pale protective coloring that camouflages the Social Identities 53 Downloaded by [Linnaeus University] at 00:53 10 October 2014 unquestioned assumptions and unearned privileges of gay whiteness. (Be´rube´, 2001, p. 246)</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;"></span><br />
<span style="color: blue;">Gay businesses, too, mark these borders. Bars populated by non-white clients exist merely to support white male fantasies about gay men of color are marked with appropriately fetishized names such as the Voodoo Lounge in Seattle, Papicock in New York, and Red Dragon in Los Angeles. The Blatino Bronx Factory not only marks the club as raced but also quite blatantly specifies which races they are marking. Yet gay-identified organizations with mostly, and sometimes exclusively, white clientele*both businesses and NPOs*are never marked in this way. In fact, they vehemently oppose such characterizations, arguing instead that they serve all gay people. It is never the ‘Gay White Support/Social Organization’, but rather, ‘Gay Support/Social Organization’. In doing so, the implication is that they speak for all gay people, a claim they make while ignoring certain voices. Their concerns, those of largely gay white men, become the de facto concerns for gay men of color. As such, whiteness takes center stage and it becomes synonymous with gay where gay comes to mean white and white comes to mean gay.</span><br />

<span style="color: blue;">"Sometimes racism in the gay community takes on more explicit forms. Like racism everywhere, these forms tend to operate with the goal of excluding, in this case, men of color from gay institutions. Perhaps the most notorious has been the events surrounding Badlands, a popular bar in the Castro district in San Francisco. In the summer of 2004, Badlands became the site of weekly picketing after a group of racially diverse Bay Area residents filed a complaint with the San Francisco Human Rights Commission, the San Francisco Entertainment Commission, the California Department of Fair Employment and Housing, and the state Alcoholic Beverage Control Department claming racial discrimination at the bar. Among the complaints were that not only was the owner practising job discrimination at the bar but also that non-white customers were being either turned away at the door or were being expunged from the bar. According to complainants, people of color were routinely denied employment and promotional opportunities and entrance into the establishment. Most obvious incidents were the fact that black men were required to provide two forms of I.D. at the door while white men were required to only show one... "</span><br />

<b><span style="color: red;">Invisibility of gays of color (Han 2007- QUOTE:)</span></b><br />
<br />
"Not surprisingly, allusions to invisibility are common in the writings and media productions created by gay men of color. For example, in Tongues untied, black film maker Marlon Riggs had this to say about San Francisco:<br />
<br />
<i>I pretended not to notice the absence of black images in this new gay life, in bookstores, poster shops, film festivals, even my own fantasies. Something in Oz was amiss, but I tried not to notice. I was intent on my search for my reflection, love, affirmation, in eyes of blue, gray, green. Searching, I discovered something I didn’t expect, something decades of determined assimilation cannot blind me to. In this great, gay Mecca, I was an invisible man. I had no shadow, no substance, no place, no history, no reflection. (Riggs, 1989)</i><br />
<i></i><br />
<span style="color: red;">Likewise, Joseph Beam (1986) in his work, In the Life wrote:</span><br />
<i>Visibility is survival . . . It is possible to read thoroughly two or three consecutive issues of the Advocate, the national biweekly gay newsmagazine, and never encounter, in the words or images, Black gay men . . . We ain’t family. Very clearly, gay male means: White, middle-class, youthful, nautilized, and probably butch, there is no room for Black gay men within the confines of this gay pentagon. </i>(quoted in Manalansan, 1996, p. 402)<br />

<b>The other part of the embed, is a long-standing hostility to Christianity in some segments of gay culture, since Christianity calls numerous parts of that culture into question. </b>As the book on the "alt-right" "Kill All Normies" details, the attack-smear-troll culture of said "alt-right" has little respect for Christianity or soft Christian values, something some churches in their focus on happy-clappy, no offence, prosperity-preaching, reinvention-of-me "ministries" seem to not want to address in any detail. And why bother with foundational values anymore? Several churches have already accommodated themselves to the new realities, and gay priest, prophet and preacher alike stride prayerfully (and moderately) into the brave new world, with its "autonomous zones".<br />
<br />
<b>The transgressive-subversive sensibility- no stranger to either gay culture or the alt-right. </b><br />
As one author notes:<br />
<br />
<span style="color: blue;">"Paglia argued that de Sade's devaluing of the procreative female body, and his preoccupation with heterosexual and homosexual sodomy, also shared by chan culture, were not merely the product of a homosexual impulse, as argued by feminist Simone de Beauvoir, but a 'protest against relentlessly overabundant procreative nature'. .. That the transgressive values of de Sade could be taken up by a culture of misogyny and characterized an online anti-feminist movement that rejected traditional church-going conservatism should also not be a surprise. The Blakean motto adopted by the Surrealists, 'Sooner murder an infant in its cradle than nurse unacted desires', dominance as sexual 'sovereignty' and the freeing of the id from the constraints of the conscience have all descended from this transgressive tradition.<br /><br />Just as Nietzsche appealed to the Nazis as a way to formulate a right-wing anti-moralism, it is precisely the transgressive sensibility that is used to excuse and rationalize the utter dehumanization of women and ethnic minorities in the alt-right online sphere now. The culture of transgression they have produced liberates their conscience from having to take seriously the potential human cost of breaking the taboo against racial politics that has held since WWII. The Sadean transgressive element of the 60s, condemned by conservatives for decades as the very heart of the destruction of civilization, the degenerate and the nihilistic, is not being challenged by the emergence of this new online right. Instead, the emergence of this new online right is the full coming to fruition of the transgressive anti-moral style,."</span><span style="color: red;">--Angela Nagle- Kill All Normies, pg 53-54</span><br />

<b>New opportunities in today's youth culture</b><br />
<br />
Some find the above developments shocking but it could be argued that it is unrealistic to expect some folk who happen to be gay to not grasp new opportunities in today's dynamic web-driven culture, particularly among web-attuned youth. After all, Gay-Lesbian-Transgender clubs on high school campuses can use fellow teens to tap into that youth culture to promote recruitment and education much more effectively than old style lectures by a previous generation. Likewise the dynamic surge of the gamer and trolling culture has struck a chord with many alienated young males, easily susceptible to the right propaganda package, and opening up new recruitment opportunities. Given these trends, there are some who see gays as adding value to the "alt-right" movement, particularly given their "taboo-busting" style and sensibility. They can say racist, sexist and anti-religious things the "squares" are hesitant to say in public, an ability enhanced by the anonymous trolling opportunities of the Internet. Says one "alt-right" media leader- Quote:<br />
<br />
<span style="color: blue;">"I think gays can be particularly useful to the alt-right," Alternative Right editor Colin Liddell told me. "Our movement is a revolutionary and taboo-busting movement, and gays have the right 'psychological equipment' for that. And, because of their lack of immediate family, gays often have a stronger feeling for their 'wider family.' The left has successfully displaced this sentiment to the fake 'gay community' or to leftist causes in general, but the true wider family for gays is their particular tribal or ethnic group."</span><br />

<b>The impatient new generation</b><br />
<b></b><br />
<span style="color: red;">Is it immigration or other things?</span> It is not merely a question of immigration and Islam. This racist streak is deeply embedded in some parts of gay culture, or among a significant number of gays. This does not mean gays are "more racist" than other people, far from it, just that there is enough fertile ground for the alt-right to draw from, when the total picture is examined.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">Why does the new generation need to genuflect to the old verities?</span><br />
Likewise the classic pattern of gays tending to support more liberal causes no longer holds true in the age of "alt" rightism. When gays needed strong civils rights support and frameworks this pattern held. But while work remains to be done, recent victories as far as same-sex marriage and growing societal acceptance in everything from schools to corporate leave policies means that a younger generation no longer sees the same need for progressivism. Indeed they may find such old school concerns positively boring, and less than compelling in today's free-for-all, sex obsessed online trolling culture. The new gay generation may indeed yawn at issues like same-sex marriage. Get excited over what? The old ball-and-chair in newer, more fabulous clothing? In some areas a majority of gays even support right-wing candidates that, on the surface, are not friendly to classical gay causes. <a href="http://www.slate.com/blogs/outward/2017/06/05/how_alt_right_leaders_jack_donovan_and_james_o_meara_attract_gay_men_to.html" target="_blank">As Salon notes</a>:<br />
<br />
<span style="color: blue;">"In Holland, France, Germany, and Sweden, white nationalists have deliberately used LGBTQ people and Muslims as a wedge against one another. Polls show that over one third of French gay men supported Le Pen in the recent election despite her promise to end same-sex marriage, and in Germany, the far-right AfD recently tapped an out lesbian banker to run for chancellor.</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: blue;">"The AfD is even more hostile to actual pro-gay policies than France's National Front is.) Sweden's fascist party organized an LGBTQ pride parade through Muslim neighborhoods, and of course, in Holland, Pim Fortuyn and later Geert Wilders tried to make "Islam" synonymous with "hatred of gays." Their ultimate goal was to make hatred of immigrants "progressive."</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;">Bringing queer people in, in both Europe and America, is a way to grow the neo-fascist movement. It is also a way to court millennials, who are consistently supportive of gay rights even when they swing conservative on other issues. It's a testament to the fact that, in some ways, the queer movement has already won the battle for public opinion. The far right could not beat us, so they decided to join us—in the most superficial way possible. Ultimately, it's a form of pinkwashing, which YourDictionary defines as “the practice of representing something … as gay-friendly in order to soften or downplay aspects of its reputation considered negative.” How could Le Pen, or Wilders, or other open racists be so bad when they like queer people?</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: blue;">There is another potential benefit: If white supremacists can equate "Muslims" with attacks on LGBTQ people—and women—they might be able to attract liberals and moderates into a kind of anti-immigrant "big tent." This would complement their effort to portray racism as “pro-worker.” </span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">The "Muslim menace" also has other benefits- the inevitable racial tie-in.</span> One of the most uncompromising opponents of racism and certain gay issues is of course the Black Muslim leader Louis Farrakhan- though the aging helmsman will likely vanish from the scene in a few years. By playing on "menacing Muslims," the old racial bogeyman can be put into play yet again- a gift that just keeps on giving. There are short-term recruitment benefits to be gained from this angle. But Farrakhan, like his predecessor Elijah Muhammed always under government surveillance, was always careful to keep his organization on a tight leash, whatever his fiery pronouncements. And while no friend of the gay lifestyle, he did not make demonization of gays a major part of his program, rather in general, seeing black gays as unfortunate victims of white exploitation and degeneracy.<br />
<br />
Even more uncompromising and less restrained than Farrakhan however, was the now deceased, hardline black nationalist Kahlid Muhammed, of the New Black Panther Party (NBPP) , whom even Farrakhan banished from his organization. The post Muhammed NBPP ironically, while still suspicious, is somewhat more accepting of gays, if only as a recognition of today's realities, and are willing to enter into tactical coalitions with them depending on the issue. But even they, while still visible, have been generally marginalized in the media, and among some blacks turned off by its portrayed anti-Semitic or "incendiary" rhetoric. However the continued growth of the gay and non-gay "alt-right," many of whom as noted above speak of violence, and who troll vicious 24/7 anti-black smears and propaganda across the web, has made many blacks feel under siege. This provides an inevitable incentive for said blacks to take another look at alternatives like the NBPP, or more radical than the NBPP, as a self-defense, counter-mobilization , "push-back" response. As can be imagined, the potential for racial discord is more than heightened if these trends start gather steam. Continual racial bile, turmoil and discord of course is one objectives of the "alt-right." The "muslim menace" provides a two-fer towards this end. Ironically, some polls show that today's Muslims in America are LESS opposed to gays than such primary white Evangelicals or Mormons (<a href="http://www.pewforum.org/2015/11/03/chapter-4-social-and-political-attitudes/" target="_blank">Pew Research 2015</a>).<br />

The question might be not that so many gays are now on board, but rather what took the pattern so long to manifest itself in a definite public way.</span><b></b><i></i><u></u><sub></sub><sup></sup><strike></strike><br />
<br />
<b>Just to make it clear.</b> This post makes no claim that a massive segment of the gay population is joining the "alt-right," nor is any claim made that contradicts the basic gay socio-political pattern of more general support for liberal/progressive causes, and a relatively more favorable record towards civil rights etc, especially since such supports aids gay civil rights and acceptance. This is much more than in most "alt" communities, where some individuals troll anti-gay material. And no there is no mass migration of gays to the old white nationalist and Ku Kluxer battle lines. Rather, the central point is the clear representation of a growing and significant number of gays in the "alt-right" and the active courting of them by some leaders of that movement.<br />
<br />
And again to be clear, it should be definitely pointed out that some gay organizations recognize some of these problems on race, and are actively working to overcome them and raise awareness, like the "And Castro For All" group which arose in response to widespread instances of racial discrimination against gay men of color, both by individual white gays and in many venues of San Francisco's famous gay-friendly Castro District. More power to them for fighting unfairness and injustice. They have some heavy lifting to do.<br />

<br />
<b>Now for five last questions or issues:</b> <br />
<br />
<b>1) Could envy of Jewish prosperity be part of the mix in the alt-right transition? </b>It should be the opposite in theory - after all, Jews have been favorable towards liberalism and gay rights, including <a href="https://www.timesofisrael.com/us-jews-among-the-most-supportive-of-gay-marriage/" target="_blank">heavy gay marriage support</a>, and are relatively well educated, like gays, on AVERAGE. And given the anti-gay critique, and anti-Jewish antipathy in many Islamic quarters, shouldn't gays and Jews (and yes some Jews are gay) be natural allies? So it would seem, but there is a logical argument to be made for the increasing movement of young males and gay males towards the lure of the alt-right. Given the well documented pattern of male decline or perceived decline and female advance, (see book above), disaffected white males see the relative prosperity and favorable socio-economic position of Jews -who contrary to the general trend, appear to be moving ahead, not falling behind. Thus philosophies such as that of <span style="color: #cc0000;"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Culture_of_Critique_series" target="_blank">Professor Kevin Macdonald</a>,</span> an academic lionized and embraced by the "alt-right" calling for heavy taxation on Jews and restrictions on their occupations, are increasingly attractive, particularly if said Jews can be portrayed as part of the effete "liberal elite."<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>2) Why the RELATIVE Trump administration silence when it comes to various controversies that can be taken as anti-gay? </b>Aside from some kerfluffles over a limited issue, such as the transgender soldier matter, the Trump regime seems to have gone out of its way to keep gays sweet, unlike the sometimes gratuitous public controversies and baiting involving blacks, which seem so much to pump up "the base." Indeed, Trump alone among Republican candidates has waved Rainbow flags around on stage, pledges to protect LGBT folk from hateful ideologies, endorses transgender Caitlyn Jenner's use of restrooms on his properties, has received the backing of prominent gays like Peter Thiel, and refuses to expend much political capital on, or call for, rollbacks to gay marriage.<br />
<br />
New Supreme Court appointee Brett Kavanaugh and his supporters were muted as far as any talk about "rollback" to gay marriage. There seems to be a quiet white consensus, both on the left and the right, to not stir up the issue too much. In general, white America does not seem to make as much fuss about gay marriage involving mostly white people, compared to the feelings (oft hidden) generated by heterosexual black-white IR unions or hookups, relatively speaking. After all, as many conservatives softly aver, same-sex unions are now "the law of the land," and in Caifornia's famous Prop 8 vote in 2008, a slim majority of white voters opposed a gay marriage ban, while most blacks supported it. The religious right too while still concerned about the issue is not as vocal as it once was, and having hitched its wagon to Trumpism, has nowhere else to go. Its leaders must play along with the new order.<br />
<br />
OK, you say, but since a majority of gays voted for Hilary aren't they ripe for similar baiting like blacks? Why hasn't it happened to the same extent? Could it be a matter of bait tactics being deployed where they would be most profitable in ginning up "the base" - which of course means heavy on the black bait Bubba, while going easy on a gay-tinged "silent supporter" base segment?<br />
<strong><span style="color: red;">Kid gloves for gays, the backhand for blacks, </span></strong>so to speak?<br />

<b>3) Could sexual frustration and feelings of inadequacy on the part of some white males play a part fueling the move towards the 'alt-right'?</b> The "alt-right" sphere is rife with feelings of sexual frustration and inadequacy, as its lust-filled denizens lament their inability to get the female they think they "deserve." <span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; display: inline; float: none; font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: left; text-decoration: none; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;">These felt inadequacies often play out in the snarling resentment towards females, and enhance both the gay line and the alt line.</span><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; display: inline; float: none; font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: left; text-decoration: none; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;"> </span>As Angela Nagle in the book Kill All Normies" explains:<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<span style="color: blue;">"One of the dominant and consistent preoccupations running through the forum culture of the manosphere is the idea of beta and alpha males. They discuss how women prefer alpha males and either cynically use or completely ignore beta males, by which they mean low-ranking males in the stark and vicious social hierarchy through which they interpret all human interaction. Some follow the pickup artistry of bloggers like Roosh V in order to rise from a ‘nice guy’ beta to a sexually successful alpha. Roosh (aka Daryush Valizadeh) began as a pickup artist, later self-described as a neo-masculinist and flirted with the hard alt-right, who he would have found common ground with in their shared belief that feminism is a major cause of civilizational decline. He positively reviewed alt-right writer Kevin MacDonald’s The Culture of Critiques and titled it, ‘The Damaging Effects Of Jewish Intellectualism And Activism On Western Culture’ pg 115-117</span></blockquote>
<span style="color: red;">The gay part of the frustration equation</span> strips away much of the time-consuming courting rituals and kowtowing that seems to give women so much perceived power, and frees the young white male to satisfy his lust for flesh relatively quickly and cheaply (voluntary participants in a promiscuous gay club are much cheaper than prostitutes for example) if a warm body is desired. And while despising female power, at the same time the beauty and attractiveness of the female must be appropriated by some males to recreate the desires perceived as denied to them in real life. Thus some take on "female" roles to carry this lust forward. The same appropriation of female beauty and attractiveness manifests itself in some aspects of the "transgender" equation. Felt inadequacy is also a product of the relative success of women in school and the workplace, and the decline of men in these venues, partly though their own lack of effort in competing with women.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">The "alt-right" part of the equation</span>, enables a powerless white lamer in real life, to be a giant in the virtual world, terrorizing and shocking resented females and "normies" and fulfilling an otherwise limited moral existence with a noble mission in company with similar comrades- to be guardian and protector of white civilization itself. Ironically, the very behavior of many "defenders of white civ" seems rather to undermine many aspects - from their deep dependence on and obsession with pornography, constant disparagement of women, and continual mocking of "weakling" family values, brotherhood, do-unto-others-as-yourself kindness, fair treatment and justice and so on, espoused by many Christians. All such is for "the weak." As the discerning reader will note- their "defense of civ" approach has a familiar 1930s and 40s echo to it..<br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">And there is a neat racial tie-in both ways.</span> The latent fear (or fantasy) of monstrous negro penetration lurks in the dark background, related the persistence of the bestial negro or "black thug" stock figures exploited in manufactured fantasy, and today's relentless pornography. With this one can add the fear and envy of negro sexual prowess and perceived "cool" (such as among athletes and musicians) on the front end. On another level, one can throw in personal repugnance against an "other" that does not meet white ideals of beauty -see black lesbian complaints of being devalued, discounted or ignored even as far as service in public establishments- <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Talking-Black-Lesbians-African-Descent/dp/0304329657/ref=sr_1_1/140-2129434-8503337?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1526504906&sr=1-1&keywords=9780304329632" target="_blank">here for example</a>. Stir the toxic stew, and the path of racial antipathy is wide open, and easy to take for those white gays and lesbians moving to the "alt side." The alt-right transition combines all these strands, some contradictory, and gives plenty of scope to attack the resented/envied/feared/scorned Black Other. Again the above is dealing with SOME POSSIBLE items in the mix for the shift towards the alt-right. It offers no grand explanation of the motivations and activities of all individuals.<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>4) Can the misogyny of many on the alt-right serve as an effective two-way recruiting tool</b><b>- (a) into the alt-right, and (b) into the gay lifestyle at the same time? </b>First, the misogyny of many in the alt-right is well documented and might have practical benefits across the board. It can help recruit gays into the alt-right, and indeed the alt-right's one-time most famous spokesman, Milo Yiannopoulos heaps scorn on women, and of course, is himself gay. Add in the others mentioned in the Slate article, and this might be a powerful draw, just as the anti-female angle draws other young white males into the movement who are not as yet gay.<br />
<br />
Second, as the misogyny machine grinds on, new queer recruitment avenues open up, as packs of resentful young white males, unable to get the female objects of their desire, are invited to become that lust: the disguises vary - transgenderism, transvestitism, or "switch" role-playing, where they can both be the feminine object, or the masculine dominator of that object. The relentless presence of pornography meshes with the grist of the misogynist mills, and helps along the process, possibly luring more and more young white males to move to, or tentatively "experiment" on the slippery slope of the queer side. And none of the above need be a binary homosexual versus non homosexual model. The "transition" process is more effective if it works undercover, in different guises, along a continuum of obfuscation and corruption. Sounds like a favorable environment in many ways eh?<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>5) Finally in the hoped for gay white nationalist "autonomous zones" nirvana above, white women would seem to be second-class citizens </b>with very little power, except as fulfilling the roles they are ordered to take. It seems though, that the designers of this affluent racial paradise forgot about gay women, who I don't think will be content with being mere "Aryan" handmaids, like the idealized passive "Frau" of the Third Reich, minus the breeding responsibilities.. Since they cannot be expected (at least in theory) to be strength-through-joy breeding machines, what's in it for white gay women, or gay white feminists except the initial racial bashing/black devaluation angle as they stand by their righteously racist "alt-right" man? Also will there be a place for the "effete" elements in the "new order"- those "pink-haired, punk rock stepchildren of feminism" per above?<br />
<br />
More to come as these and other angles are explored..<br />

It has become an article of faith in some quarters that racial discrimination in employment, housing and consumer markets was eliminated or has been/was massively reduced by passage of such laws as the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Any remaining discrimination is actually "reverse discrimination" against white men and <span style="color: red;"><a href="http://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2011/04/affirmative-action-primary.html" target="_blank">women</a> </span>via<span style="color: red;"> "</span><a href="http://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2014/01/the-affirmatve-action-propaganda.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: red;">affirmative action</span></a><span style="color: red;"> (AA) </span><a href="http://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2014/05/the-affirmative-action-propaganda.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: red;">quotas</span></a><span style="color: red;">"</span>, who have been wrongly made to feel "<a href="http://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2015/08/how-obama-plays-upon-white-guilt-hilary.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: red;">white guilt</span></a>" about things they had nothing to do with.

Part 1 of our exploration looks at scholarly data, not random rants and fulminations off the web. Part 2 of the discussion looks at some conservative and libertarian responses.<br />

It reviewed hundreds of court cases and interviewed dozens of people who filed EEOC claims, which are made under penalty of perjury. What emerged is a picture of a system that routinely fails workers. Complaint data obtained from the EEOC for fiscal years 2010 through 2017 — a rare window into a largely obscured problem in America’s workplaces — shows that the agency closes most cases without concluding whether discrimination occurred. Sometimes, workers’ lawyers say, an EEOC investigation involves no more than asking the employer for a response..</span><br /><span style="color: blue;">A key part of the issue, according to experts and former EEOC employees, is that the agency doesn’t have the resources for its mammoth task.

Their struggle was dismissed and distorted as a "black giveaway" by right-wing media operatives, when in fact, in an exceedingly complicated case involving tens of thousands, the black farmers as a whole saw minimal amounts (what's $50,000 per head for example, when one farm combine may cost $300,000, or debt service might cost $10,000 per month), or no compensation at all.

This passive nullification, voicing agreement with equal rights while continuing or intensifying discrimination, did not rely on antebellum intellectual arguments or confrontations but instead thrived silently in the offices of biased employees. Phone calls and conversations at segregated meetings and conventions left no racist fingerprints, but the accretion of prejudice festered and ultimately grew into a plan to eliminate minority, women, and small farmers by preventing their sharing equally in federal programs. Despite overwhelming evidence of discrimination, incompetence, and falsehoods in many offices, the USDA never cut off funds to those offices, and apparently no white person was fired and few were even relocated or reprimanded.”</span></div><div><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span>--Pete Daniel 2015.

"<b>Employment </b><br />
<br />
"Although there have been some remarkable gains in the labor force status of racial minorities, significant disparities remain. African Americans are twice as likely to be unemployed as whites (Hispanics are only marginally so), and the wages of both blacks and Hispanics continue to lag well behind those of whites (author’s analysis of Current Population Survey, 2006). A long line of research has examined the degree to which discrimination plays a role in shaping contemporary labor market disparities. Experimental audit studies focusing on hiring decisions have consistently found strong evidence of racial discrimination, with estimates of white preference ranging from 50% to 240% (Cross et al. 1989, Turner et al. 1991, Fix & Struyk 1993, Bendick et al. 1994; see Pager 2007a for a review). For example, in a study by Bertrand & Mullainathan (2004), the researchers mailed equivalent resumes to employers in Boston and Chicago using racially identifiable names to signal race (for example, names like Jamal and Lakisha signaled African Americans, while Brad and Emily were associated with whites).2 White names triggered a callback rate that was 50% higher than that of equally qualified black applicants. Further, their study indicated that improving the qualifications of applicants benefited white applicants but not blacks, thus leading to a wider racial gap in response rates for those with higher skill. Statistical studies of employment outcomes likewise reveal large racial disparities unaccounted for by observed human capital characteristics.<br />
<br />
Tomaskovic-Devey et al. (2005) present evidence from a fixed-effects model indicating that black men spend significantly more time searching for work, acquire less work experience, and experience less stable employment than do whites with otherwise equivalent characteristics. Wilson et al. (1995) find that, controlling for age, education, urban location, and occupation, black male high school graduates are 70% more likely to experience involuntary unemployment than whites with similar characteristics and that this disparity increases among those with higher levels of education. At more aggregate levels, research points to the persistence of occupational segregation, with racial minorities concentrated in jobs with lower levels of stability and authority and with fewer opportunities for advancement (Parcel & Mueller 1983, Smith 2002). Of course, these residual estimates cannot control for all relevant factors, such as motivation, effort, access to useful social networks, and other factors that may produce disparities in the absence of direct discrimination. Nevertheless, these estimates suggest that blacks and whites with observably similar human capital characteristics experience markedly different employment outcomes.."<br />

<b>"Housing </b><br />
<br />
Residential segregation by race remains a salient feature of contemporary American cities. Indeed, African Americans were as segregated from whites in 1990 as they had been at the start of the twentieth century, and levels of segregation appear unaffected by rising socioeconomic status (Massey & Denton 1993). Although segregation appears to have modestly decreased between 1980 and 2000 (Logan et al. 2004), blacks (and to a lesser extent other minority groups) continue to experience patterns of residential placement markedly different from whites. The degree to which discrimination contributes to racial disparities in housing has been a major preoccupation of social scientists and federal housing agents (Charles 2003).<br />
<br />
The vast majority of the work on discrimination in housing utilizes experimental audit data. For example, between 2000 and 2002 the Department of Housing and Urban Development conducted an extensive series of audits measuring housing discrimination against blacks, Latinos, Asians, and Native Americans, including nearly 5500 paired tests in nearly 30 metropolitan areas [see Turner et al. (2002),Turner&Ross (2003a); see also Hakken (1979), Feins & Bratt (1983), Yinger (1986), Roychoudhury & Goodman (1992, 1996) for additional, single-city audits of housing discrimination].<br />
<br />
The study results reveal bias across multiple dimensions, with blacks experiencing consistent adverse treatment in roughly one in five housing searches and Hispanics experiencing consistent adverse treatment in roughly one out of four housing searches (both rental and sales).3 Measured discrimination took the form of less information offered about units, fewer opportunities to view units, and, in the case of home buyers, less assistance with financing and steering into less wealthy communities and neighborhoods with a higher proportion of minority residents.<br />
<br />
Generally, the results of the 2000 Housing Discrimination Study indicate that aggregate levels of discrimination against blacks declined modestly in both rentals and sales since 1989 (although levels of racial steering increased). Discrimination against Hispanics in housing sales declined, although Hispanics experienced increasing levels of discrimination in rental markets.<br />
<br />
Other research using telephone audits further points to a gender and class dimension of racial discrimination in which black women and/or blacks who speak in a manner associated with a lower-class upbringing suffer greater discrimination than black men and/or those signaling a middle-class upbringing (Massey & Lundy 2001, Purnell et al. 1999). Context also matters in the distribution of discrimination events (Fischer & Massey 2004). Turner & Ross (2005) report that segregation and class steering of blacks occurs most often when either the housing or the office of the real estate agent is in a predominantly white neighborhood. Multi-city audits likewise suggest that the incidence of discrimination varies substantially across metropolitan contexts (Turner et al. 2002).<br />
<br />
Moving beyond evidence of exclusionary treatment, Roscigno and colleagues (2007) provide evidence of the various forms of housing discrimination that can extend well beyond the point of purchase (or rental agreement). Examples from a sample of discrimination claims filed with the Civil Rights Commission of Ohio point to the failure of landlords to provide adequate maintenance for housing units, to harassment or physical threats by managers or neighbors, and to the unequal enforcement of a residential association’s rules. Overall, the available evidence suggests that discrimination in rental and housing markets remains pervasive. Although there are some promising signs of change, the frequency with which racial minorities experience differential treatment in housing searches suggests that discrimination remains an important barrier to residential opportunities."<br />

<br />As one study succinctly puts it as to housing policy:<div><br /></div><div><span style="color: red;">"Literally, those authorized to make loans at banks would draw on a map a red line around a black community, and no one inside that red line could get a loan. Until 1949 the FHA also encouraged the use of restrictive covenants banning African Americans from given neighborhoods and refused to insure mortgages in integrated neighborhoods. Thanks to the FHA, no bank would insure loans in the ghetto, and few African Americans could live outside it.

<b>"Credit Markets</b><br />
<br />
Whites possess roughly 12 times the wealth of African Americans; in fact, whites near the bottom of the income distribution possess more wealth than blacks near the top of the income distribution (Oliver & Shapiro 1997, p. 86). Given that home ownership is one of the most significant sources of wealth accumulation, patterns that affect the value and viability of home ownership will have an impact on wealth disparities overall. Accordingly, the majority of work on discrimination in credit markets focuses on the specific case of mortgages. Available evidence suggests that blacks and Hispanics face higher rejection rates and less favorable terms in securing mortgages than do whites with similar credit characteristics (Ross & Yinger 1999). Oliver & Shapiro (1997, p. 142) report that blacks pay more than 0.5% higher interest rates on home mortgages than do whites and that this difference persists with controls for income level, date of purchase, and age of buyer.<br />
<br />
The most prominent study of the effect of race on rejection rates for mortgage loans is by Munnell et al. (1996), which uses 1991 Home Mortgage Disclosure Act data supplemented by data from the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston, including individual applicants’ financial, employment, and property background variables that lenders use to calculate the applicants’ probability of default. Accounting for a range of variables linked to risk of default, cost of default, loan characteristics, and personal and neighborhood characteristics, they find that black and Hispanic applications were 82% more likely to be rejected than were those from similar whites. Critics argued that the study was flawed on the basis of the quality of the data collected (Horne 1994), model specification problems (Glennon & Stengel 1994), omitted variables (Zandi 1993, Liebowitz 1993, Horne 1994, Day & Liebowitz 1996), and endogenous explanatory variables (see Ross&Yinger 1999 for a full explication of the opposition), although rejoinders suggest that the race results are affected little by these modifications (Ross & Yinger 1999; S.L. Ross&G.M.B.Tootell, unpublished manuscript).<br />
<br />
Audit research corroborates evidence of mortgage discrimination, finding that black testers are less likely to receive a quote for a loan than are white testers and that they are given less time with the loan officer, are quoted higher interest rates, and are given less coaching and less information than are comparable white applicants (for a review, see Ross&Yinger 2002).<br />
<br />
In addition to investigating the race of the applicant, researchers have investigated the extent to which the race of the neighborhood affects lending decisions, otherwise known as redlining. Although redlining is a well-documented factor in the origins of contemporary racial residential segregation (see Massey & Denton 1993), studies after the 1974 Equal Credit Opportunity Act, which outlawed redlining, and since the 1977 Community Reinvestment Act, which made illegal having a smaller pool of mortgage funds available in minority neighborhoods than in similar white neighborhoods, find little evidence of its persistence (Benston & Horsky 1991, Schafer & Ladd 1981, Munnell et al. 1996). This conclusion depends in part, however, on one’s definition of neighborhood-based discrimination. Ross & Yinger (1999) distinguish between process-based and outcome based redlining, with process-based redlining referring to “whether the probability that a loan application is denied is higher in minority neighborhoods than in white neighborhoods, all else equal” whereas outcome-based redlining refers to smaller amounts of mortgage funding available to minority neighborhoods relative to comparable white neighborhoods. Although evidence on both types of redlining is mixed, several studies indicate that, controlling for demand, poor and/or minority neighborhoods have reduced access to mortgage funding, particularly from mainstream lenders (Phillips-Patrick & Rossi 1996, Siskin & Cupingood 1996; see also Ladd 1998 for methodological issues in measuring redlining).<br />
<br />
As a final concern, competition and deregulation of the banking industry have led to greater variability in conditions of loans, prompting the label of the “new inequality” in lending (Williams et al. 2005, Holloway 1998). Rather than focusing on rejection rates, these researchers focus on the terms and conditions of loans, in particular whether a loan is favorable or subprime (Williams et al. 2005, Apgar & Calder 2005, Squires 2003). Immergluck & Wiles (1999) have called this the “dual mortgage market” in which prime lending is given to higher income and white areas, while subprime and predatory lending is concentrated in lower-income and minority communities (see also Dymski 2006, pp. 232–36). Williams et al. (2005), examining changes between 1993 and 2000, find rapid gains in loans to underserved markets from specialized lenders: 78% of the increase in lending to minority neighborhoods was from subprime lenders, and 72% of the increase in refinance lending to blacks was from subprime lenders. Further, the authors find that “even at the highest income level, blacks are almost three times as likely to get their loans from a subprime lender as are others” (p. 197; see also Calem et al. 2004). Although the disproportionate rise of subprime lending in minority communities is not solely the result of discrimination, some evidence suggests that in certain cases explicit racial targeting may be at work. In two audit studies in which creditworthy testers approached subprime lenders, whites were more likely to be referred to the lenders’ prime borrowing division than were similar black applicants (see Williams et al. 2005). Further, subprime lenders quoted the black applicants very high rates, fees, and closing costs that were not correlated with risk (Williams et al. 2005).4<br />
<br />
Not all evidence associated with credit market discrimination is bad news. Indeed, between 1989 and 2000 the number of mortgage loans to blacks and Hispanics nationwide increased 60%, compared with 16% for whites, suggesting that some convergence is taking place (Turner et al. 2002). Nevertheless, the evidence indicates that blacks and Hispanics continue to face higher rejection rates and receive less favorable terms than whites of equal credit risk."<br />

Pager and Shepard have much more to discuss, including consumer credit discrimination, but you get the picture from the snippets above, which many seem intent on denying, or minimizing - namely, that racial discrimination in employment, housing and credit markets is alive and well. <br />
<br />
<span style="color: blue;">Pager and Shepard also note the continuing impact of white preferential "word of mouth" and other social networks, and the continuing effect of past discrimination in suppressing black opportunity, wealth and other things.</span> This past cannot be simply airbrushed away as a factor in the current era. <br />
<b>Quote:</b><br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">"Indeed, many organizational policies or procedures can impose disparate impact along racial lines with little direct influence from individual decision makers. The case of networks represents one important example... given high levels of social segregation (e.g., McPherson et al. 2001), the use of referrals is likely to reproduce the existing racial composition of the company and to exclude members of those groups not already well represented (Braddock & McPartland 1987). In an analysis of noncollege jobs, controlling for spatial segregation, occupational segregation, city, and firm size, Mouw (2002) finds that the use of employee referrals in predominantly white firms reduces the probability of a black hire by nearly 75% relative to the use of newspaper ads."<br /><br />"The origins of contemporary racial wealth disparities, for example, have well-established links to historical practices of redlining, housing covenants, racially targeted federal housing policies, and other forms of active discrimination within housing and lending markets (e.g., Massey & Denton 1993). Setting aside evidence of continuing discrimination in each of these domains, these historical practices themselves are sufficient to maintain extraordinarily high levels of wealth inequality through the intergenerational transition of advantage (the ability to invest in good neighborhoods, good schools, college, housing assistance for adult children, etc.) (Oliver & Shapiro 1997). According to Conley (1999), even if we were to eliminate all contemporary forms of discrimination, huge racial wealth disparities would persist, which in turn underlie racial inequalities in schooling, employment, and other social domains (see also Lieberson & Fuguitt 1967). Recent work based on formal modeling suggests that the effects of past discrimination, particularly as mediated by ongoing forms of social segregation, are likely to persist well into the future, even in the absence of ongoing discrimination (see Bowles et al. 2007, Lundberg & Startz 1998). These historical sources of discrimination may become further relevant, not only in their perpetuation of present-day inequalities, but also through their reinforcement of contemporary forms of stereotypes and discrimination."</span><br />

<b><span style="color: blue;">Cumulative effects of discrimination and ostensible "race neutrality</span></b>." Supposedly "race neutral" policies or practices may also perpetuate effects of discrimination by locking in the privileges and advantages gained from past discrimination. Barring blacks from decent housing markets and land purchases for generations for example, locks in the advantages gained by whites over those generations, and will produce people substantially locked out of the major source of wealth in the United States- home ownership, or out of jobs that are much easer to find, and to get to from once "off limits" white suburban locations. Discrimination can have accumulative effects. For example routing women to certain jobs at career entry will produce disparities in pay, promotions, income etc, years later down the road. Passage of a few laws, or declarations of a level playing field, will not magically erase these cumulative effects- some built up over generations. As Pager and Shepard further note:<br />
<b><span style="color: red;">QUOTE:</span></b>
<br />
<span style="color: red;">"These examples point to contexts in which ostensibly race-neutral policies can structure and reinforce existing social inequalities. According to Omi & Winant (1994), “through policies which are explicitly or implicitly racial, state institutions organize and enforce the racial politics of everyday life. For example, they enforce racial (non)discrimination policies, which they administer, arbitrate, and encode in law. They organize racial identities by means of education, family law, and the procedures for punishment, treatment, and surveillance of the criminal, deviant and ill” (p. 83). Even without any willful intent, policies can play an active role in designating the beneficiaries and victims of a particular system of resource allocation, with important implications for enduring racial inequalities.<br /><br /><br />Accumulation of disadvantage. This third category of structural discrimination draws our attention to how the effects of discrimination in one domain or at one point in time may have consequences for a broader range of outcomes. Through spillover effects across domains, processes of cumulative (dis)advantage across the life course, and feedback effects, the effects of 9The case of drug policy and enforcement is one area for which evidence of direct racial discrimination is stronger (see Beckett et al. 2005, Tonry 1995). discrimination can intensify and, in some cases, become self-sustaining. Although traditional measures of discrimination focus on individual decision points (e.g., the decision to hire, to rent, to offer a loan), the effects of these decisions may extend into other relevant domains. Discrimination in credit markets, for example, contributes to higher rates of loan default, with negative implications for minority entrepreneurship, home ownership, and wealth accumulation (Oliver & Shapiro 1997). Discrimination in housing markets contributes to residential segregation, which is associated with concentrated disadvantage (Massey & Denton 1993), poor health outcomes ( Williams 2004), and limited educational and employment opportunities (Massey & Fischer 2006, Fernandez & Su 2004). <br /><br />Single point estimates of discrimination within a particular domain may substantially underestimate the cumulative effects of discrimination over time and the ways in which discrimination in one domain can trigger disadvantage in many others. In addition to linkages across domains, the effects of discrimination may likewise span forward in time, with the cumulative impact of discrimination magnifying initial effects. Blau & Ferber (1987), for example, point to how the channeling of men and women into different job types at career entry “will virtually ensure sex differences in productivity, promotion opportunities, and pay” (p. 51). Small differences in starting points can have large effects over the life course (and across generations), even in the absence of continuing discrimination [for a rich discussion of cumulative (dis)advantage, see DiPrete & Eirich (2006)]."</span><br />

To the extent that there is racial discrimination in the labor market, we would expect that African Americans and Latinos with the darkest and most nonEuropean phenotype would obtain lower income, employment, and occupational status than African Americans or Latinos with the lightest and most European phenotype.

Hill found that mulattoes have more than two-and-ahalf times greater odds of attaining a white-collar job than blacks do.

<b>Does this mean that racial discrimination, past and present, is the ONLY factor at play in a given situation? Not at all, and few credible scholars or journalists or informed laymen are "ignoring" other factors, as the standard strawman and denialist party line claims. Part 2 of our topic or post will looks at some conservative responses- in particular a tendency to mysteriously skip over the reality of discrimination, or the efficacy of the Civil Rights era in combating such discrimination. </b>"Conservative" responses it should be noted do not necessarily equate with members of the Republican Party, as the many racist, racialist or denialist responses from people self-identifying as Democrats illustrates. Richard Nixon's famous "Philadelphia Plan" in the 1970s heavily affected mostly Democrat-voting unions for example, who freely discriminated against blacks, and likewise, ML King found some of his strongest opposition in the North from white Democrats in "liberal" Chicago and other allegedly more "progressive" venues. The discrimination appraisal incident noted above comes from "liberal" Northern California.<br />

<b><span style="color: blue;">A pattern of strangely missing analysis and data shows up in discussions of discrimination by libertarians and conservatives. One prominent example is Thomas Sowell in his recent books Intellectuals and Race (2013) and Wealth and Poverty: An International Perspective. </span></b>He frames a good part of his discussion of discrimination for example to say that race may not be the only factor that causes discrimination, and gives several factors. But is this blinding insight anything new? What serious people for example, "ignore" the fact, that say, people in urban areas, generally make higher wages than people in rural areas? Yes people vary for different causes, but that does not mean racial discrimination is absent, or that it is insignificant, nor does it mean that claimants to racial discrimination have no burden of proof on their shoulders- far from it- they carry a heavy burden. Sowell, like some other libertarians and conservatives, also has little in the book to say about the impact of the Civil Rights Act of 1964- an interesting omission since a number of conservative public intellectuals like <b><span style="color: red;"><a href="http://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2014/01/we-need-rational-racism-proponent.html" target="_blank">Dinesh D'souza</a><a href="http://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2014/01/we-need-rational-racism-proponent.html" target="_blank"> </a></span></b>attempt to poo-poo the Civil Rights Act of 1964, want to repeal it, or attempt to dismiss its importance by claiming it has been rendered "null" or ineffective because (a) blacks are "disillusioned" since instant racial nirvana did not happen, or (b) liberals "<a href="http://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2016/05/a-review-wealth-poverty-and-politics.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: red;"><b>abandoned</b></span></a>" color blindness in favor of "quotas and collectivism", or that (c) private individuals or companies were wrongly targeted for anti-discrimination measures rather than government (D'souza- The End of Racism: 170-184). Some of the same arguments are made by white racialist hereditarian Jared Taylor in his numerous writings such as the book "White Identity."<br />
<br />
But such claims are dubious as detailed in <b><span style="color: red;"><a href="http://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2012/05/7-reasons-libertarians-may-be-wrong.html" target="_blank">previous posts</a>.</span></b> Few blacks expected any instant racial nirvana. In media interviews for example, even the prototypical progressive "dreamer" Martin Luther King struck a note of grim realism at the slow pace of change in the face of white resistance- noting that mere passage of laws would not win all battles. Said King, it was relatively easy for white America to allow desegregated restaurant or bus seating, (after well nigh a decade of turmoil and struggle), but when it came to SUBSTANTIAL issues that govern wealth, poverty, housing, jobs, schools, access to opportunity etc, white America, was not in a hurry. King came to realize that his "I have a Dream" speech served white America well, with its optimistic gloss. The Kennedy Administration loved it. And it played well to international audiences who wondered about white America's claims to moral leadership and democracy, while a significant slice of Americans who happened to be black, could get neither democracy or fair treatment. But behind the flowery phrases, grim struggle remained. King is worth quoting:<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<span style="color: red;"><span style="color: #cc0000;"> "Now I’m not one to lose hope; I keep on hoping. I still have faith in the future. But I’ve had to analyze many things over the last few years and I would say over the last few months I’ve gone through a lot of soul-searching and agonizing moments and I’ve come to see that, uh, that we have many more difficult days ahead and some of the old optimism was a little bit superficial.. I think that the biggest problem now is that we got our gains over the last 12 years at bargain rates, so to speak. It didn’t cost the nation anything.. but we can’t get rid of slums and poverty without it costing the nation something.</span><span style="color: #cc0000;">" -</span></span><span style="color: #444444;"><span style="color: #cc0000;">-<b>(Martin Luther King, Jr. interview by Sander Vanocur- NBC - 1967 - https://mackenzian.com/blog/2014/09/29/transcript-realism-and-nonviolence)</b></span></span><span style="color: #cc0000;"><b><br /></b></span></blockquote>
But for all that, Black Americans overwhelmingly welcomed the protections and relief gained by the "Big Three" of civil rights- The Civil Rights Act of 1964, The Voting Rights Act of 1965, and the Civil Rights-Open Housing law of 1968. The Civil Rights Act of 1964 was the most prominent, and blacks and progressive whites, including independent thinking conservatives, embraced it. Contrary to claims of racialist hereditarians, for blacks desegregation was not a "problem" or "failure", but rather often HOW desegregation was implemented by whites in <i>certain areas</i>- such as malicious white closing of good black schools and firing of black teachers, coaches and administrators. And while there have been some abuses, the post civil rights era is not simply a question of "liberals" "abandoning" "colorblindness" as right wing spin like that put forth by <a href="http://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2016/05/a-review-wealth-poverty-and-politics.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: red;"><b>Shelby Steele </b></span></a>would have it.<br />
<br />
For one thing, it took years of hard litigation, political lobbying and voting, administrative arm-twisting (such as threatening to withhold federal funds from Jim Crow hospitals) and even follow-up street protests to make good the "colorblind" provisions of the CRA. Indeed the post-CRA years saw stubborn battles by many whites to delay or nullify those provisions. It was those stubborn battles that forced the use of things like "affirmative action" by courts, and even exasperated Republican presidents. The notion that all was suddenly "colorblind" on the part of white America after 1964 is cynical deception and propaganda. It took until 1988, some 20 years AFTER the Open Housing Act of 1968 for strong enforcement provisions to be enacted and implemented to combat housing discrimination. In took almost until 1990, some 26 years AFTER the Civil Rights Act of 1964 for state governments like the Alabama State Police to finally begin hiring qualified blacks in meaningful numbers, and even this was due to a court decision where a federal judge, tired of white stonewalling, simply ordered the hiring of qualified blacks, including those who had been turned away for years. This was an ugly solution, but the judge had before given YEARS of leeway for white administrators to voluntarily recruit qualified blacks. Quote:<br />
<span style="color: blue;">"Take the example of Alabama. In the late 1960s, a federal court found that only 27 out of the state’s 3,000 clerical and managerial employees were African American. Federal Judge Frank Johnson ordered extensive recruiting of blacks, as well as the hiring of the few specifically identified blacks who could prove they were victims of discrimination. Nothing happened. Another suit was filed, this time just against the state police, and this time a 50 percent hiring quota was imposed, until blacks reached 25 percent of the force. As a result, Alabama’s state police quickly became the most thoroughly integrated state police force in the country.”*</span><br />
--William Shaw. 2010. Business Ethics 2010, p 404<br />
<br />Scholar Joseph Crespino's book (<i>Joseph Crespino. 2008. In Search of Another Country- Mississippi and the Conservative Counterrevolution</i>) details the strategy of much of the white south after the passage of civil rights laws- a move from OPEN racism and sandbagging of blacks to a subtle web of "neutral" barriers and blockages, that eschewed open racialism in favor of noble sounding colorblind barriers. If you want to blokcade black employment for example, the new game avoided posting armed guards to stop blacks from filing job applications (as happened in some auto plants- Gavin Wright 2013- "Sharing The Prize"), nor do white union bosses need to mobilize white workers to go on strike if a few blacks are hired (as happened several times during WW2 and elsewhere), you simply manipulate existing or new rules behind the scenes, such as "word of mouth" advertising for new jobs or impossibly short application deadlines, where only white candidates get "the word." Presto-a "negro-free" applicant pool.. Or, as in the case of the the public utility Duke Power (Griggs vs Duke), you implement "new qualifications" for particular jobs where none such had existed before. Since white workers would have better educations, many negro applicants who could have well done the job before the new "qualifications", simply "disappear." Crespino is focused more on the state level and national links, but such things on the ground level fit neatly into the larger pattern of white manipulation. Race is not the only factor in subsequent changes after the 1960s civil rights era, as noted in Crespino's balanced analysis, but it is a dominant one. <div>https://ir.una.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1044&context=nahr<div><div><br />

<br />
Furthermore announcing "colorblindness" meant little when years of embedded an consolidated white advantage, oft built unfairly at the expense of blacks, was simply entrenched and left in place. For example telling black railroad workers held back for decades that: <span style="color: red;">"oh, we are now colorblind. We have shifted the goalposts by the way, so remain in your lower level slots as you have for years, and one day you may be moved up without regard to color,"</span> is a rather hollow "victory" for "colorblindness." As shown in the Griggs case, it was only after civil rights legislation was passed that the white employer suddenly found "colorblind religion," and then it cunningly moved to still entrench white advantage, by grandfathering white incumbents into the slots they had enjoyed for years while freezing out black workers. CRA enforcement efforts sought and gained TANGIBLE relief for those long mistreated workers. In short enforcement in the name of colorblindness, required tangible <i>results</i>, not mere platitudes. Have there been abuses or overly-hasty use of things like targets and goals when candidate pools were not substantial for example? Certainly. But the claim of "color blindness" being "abandoned" because hard-nosed enforcement mechanisms were at times necessary rings hollow when the total picture is considered.<br />
<br />
It should also be noted that the primary beneficiaries of such measures are<b><a href="https://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2011/04/affirmative-action-primary.html" target="_blank"> white women</a></b>, a fact hidden by a barrage of continual propaganda smoke-screening to make blacks serve as "unqualified" or "undeserving" scapegoats.<br />
<br />
"Make-whole"measures for those suffering discrimination are nothing unusual, nor are then an argument for unfettered head count quotas far removed from those who have suffered discrimination directly. <a href="http://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2013/09/affirmative-action-as-term-appears-in.html" target="_blank">White union members</a> gained tangible relief- such as reinstatement or promotion when discrimination on the basis of union membership was made illegal. And few charged that capitalism had been "abandoned" as a result. Its only when a black man shows up looking for the same, that some right-wingers, and liberals, suddenly discover the noble rhetoric of "colorblindness." Indeed as credible historians show (see Taylor Branch's Trilogy on the Civil Rights years such as "At Canaan's Edge for example, or Crespino 2008 above) "colorblindness" rhetoric was an explicit strategy used by segregationists to continue business as usual and route blacks to the back of the opportunity line- chiefly by locking in years of white advantage, while mouthing soothing platitudes about "race neutrality" or "we don't see color." See discussions of court case, Griggs vs Duke for example in previous <a href="http://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2017/07/sowell-liberal-intellectuals-and-hard.html" target="_blank">posts</a>. <br />

<br />
<span style="color: blue;"><b>Sacred private cows</b></span>: Ironically, popular libertarian and right wing intellectuals and pundits like Dinesh D'souza, while mouthing platitudes about colorblindness, would actually REPEAL key parts of the Civil Rights Act of 1964- which, if implemented would BRING BACK legalized color discrimination. QUOTE: <span style="color: red;"> "Am I calling for a repeal of the Civil Rights Act of 1964? Actually, yes. The law should be changed so that its nondiscrimination provisions apply only to government."</span> (Dsouza, 1996. The End of Racism, p 544). Black women thrown off private buses for sitting in the "wrong" seat? Shrug.. Its private, so all is OK. Black railroadmen murdered for working at the "wrong" "white only" jobs at private employer? Oh well, too bad.. let the negroes find jobs at other private employers- why worry about it? Private unions working on government contracts (meaning government funding) still blocking and discriminating against black workers? So what if black taxpayer dollars are going to white unions or other private entities hurting black efforts and opportunities? Hey. No worries- after all unions are private entities. Black people routed to run down ghetto areas by private white realtors, or denied loans by private white banks, or bounced from their seats by private airlines to make room for white passengers? Chuh! That's OK, cuz its all PRIVATE discrimination. Heavens if government got involved. This would still be America for blacks if D'souza's "colorblind" model is followed.</div><div>
<br />Another debunking to the libertarian argument that private entities should not be prosecuted or scrutinized for racial discrimination, is that Jim Crow race discrimination was put in place by PRIVATE entities in the first place, right after the civil war. Many segregation practices on street cars for example, were put in place WITHOUT any government mandate to do so. Segregation also occurred in the supposedly more "enlightened" North. The abolitionist Frederick Douglas for example was assaulted and beaten by whites in the "liberal" north when he dared ride on streetcars with the good white folk. And when government mandates were imposed, this was done at the behest of white consumers and clientele, expressing their preference to hold back blacks, via the political process.</div><div><br /></div><div>The landmark "Civil Rights Cases" of 1883, in which the US Supreme Court invalidated the Civil Rights Act of 1875, with its provisions for non-discrimination in public accommodations is an excellent illustration. Black plaintiffs often brought suit not against "government bureaucrats" but against PRIVATE white owned businesses: hotels, theaters, transit companies etc that had excluded them from "white only" facilities. Often these facilities, controlled by whites, were the only viable way to get transportation, or lodgings or to do business. It was not merely a matter of "choosing" to "avoid" them. Viable black alternatives were not allowed or were sandbagged. The white business owners contended in court that they were simply exercising their private property rights to discriminate against negroes, despite the Civil Rights Act of 1875, and argued that the Act should be invalidated. The white court overwhelmingly agreed in an 8-1 decision, and stripped blacks of these civil rights protections enacted by Congress in 1875. This set the stage for state and local regimes to enact a slew of "official" Jim Crow laws. As the years passed. the same court drove home the final nail of white privilege and advantage, and declared segregated "separate but equal" the official law of the land in Plessy vs Ferguson. </div><div>This decision, which scholar Randall Kennedy calls "a unique brand of American corruption and hypocrisy," relegated blacks to over half a century of legal second class citizenship, and paved the way for almost a century of unrest and turmoil, including weakening of America's credibility overseas during the Cold War, on the civil rights issue. Justice Harlan dissented from Plessy's majority, noting among other things that the private white companies like railroads were common carriers that had an obligation to serve all the public equally. But the decision allowed them to flout even such minimal standards, and implement the corrupt adjustments of Jim Crow where blacks were indeed served separately, but never equally. </div><div><br /></div><div>In real estate sales, private white entities used "restrictive covenants" without any government prompting to lock blacks out of property markets. Such restrictive covenants at one time covered almost half of all new housing construction in the US. PRIVATE real estate agents, mortgage brokers and banks also did quite nicely in racial discrimination, earning premium rents and prices on third-tier rundown properties that they "steered" blacks to. The blacks had nowhere else to go of course, restrictive covenants sandbagged them into "negro zones" chock full of toxic waste dumps, noisy industrial plants or railroad marshalling yards, floodplains and even even cemeteries. To get any kind of relief, blacks, and the law, had to confront PRIVATE white entities. </div><div><br /></div><div>All the above has been well known for over a century, and was put in place by PRIVATE white individuals, groups and enterprises, before any substantial "bad" government got involved. The libertarian notion that "private" white entities should be exempt from from anti-discrimination measures or enforcement is either profoundly ignorant, or a cynical propaganda exercise. Of course when the restrictions above did not work, PRIVATE alternatives were at hand. There were rock and firebomb throwing members of white "civic" associations seeking to exclude "the negro" from "reserved" areas, as well as your standard KKK cross-burner, bomber and thug. These too are/were private entities, not "government bureaucrats". </div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjjcwAt7lxWgaBUy2urUAEtBjttOf_SUwkq-yu_QbsTs3aHuAoxW0-Xnqnw8WAheMw5hQUamN_hUjS5YEABZBlz4K69dOJ7gzpxIHDp0wR5ptqsPsxqEGsyibnRj7ZQxJCgf8CYd_jNvyNj/s390/levittown_victims_riot_integration.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="318" data-original-width="390" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjjcwAt7lxWgaBUy2urUAEtBjttOf_SUwkq-yu_QbsTs3aHuAoxW0-Xnqnw8WAheMw5hQUamN_hUjS5YEABZBlz4K69dOJ7gzpxIHDp0wR5ptqsPsxqEGsyibnRj7ZQxJCgf8CYd_jNvyNj/s320/levittown_victims_riot_integration.jpg" width="320" /></a><br /><b><span style="color: red;">"Babe, how lucky we are to have PRIVATE groups or corporate entities attacking our<br />home or denying us loans rather than those "oppressive" government bureaucrats.</span></b></div><br /><div><br /></div><div> "Mere" private discrimination also has damaging spillover effects. Sending black people to the back of the bus for example or excluding them from restaurants sends a message that blacks are not worthy of citizenship- stoking a poisonous resentment and bitterness that still has not dissipated in America. Black troops during WW2 for example, sometimes watched in astonishment as white German prisoners (POWs), fresh off battlefields killing Americans, were allowed access to restaurants, facilities, stores etc and even US Military PXes that excluded US citizens, who happened to be black. And such treatment on into the Cold War era had a negative impact on US credibility and foreign policy during the 1950s ad 1960, as credible scholars show. See Mary Dudziak's book- <i>Cold War Civil Rights</i> (2000).</div><div>
<br />
But discrimination was not merely a "feeling" or "mere" personal preference as to restaurants, or mode of transport. Black women for example were routinely insulted, manhandled and mistreated on transportation in many parts of America. It is no accident that the arrest of Claudette Colvin and more particularly Rosa Parks, (both women) sparked the famous Montgomery Bus Boycott, culmination of years of resentment. And the same city buses that served a mostly black ridership did not hire black bus drivers. In his biography, Thomas Sowell, who spent most of his life safely up north beginning as a teenager when he moved there, and benefitting from pro-civil rights actions measures such as Truman's historic 1948 Desegregation of the Armed Forces, ducks and avoids substantive discussion of such grim realities of segregation by trying to portray segregation as mostly a matter of avoiding "restaurants run by rednecks" - a variant of the poo-poo approach used by many white libertarians. But it was a lot more than "mere" "inconvenience." It was ill-treatment, insult, and violent assault. On the housing front, routing blacks to the worse properties not only means worse physical deterioration, but that they do not have access to decent schools or jobs (increasingly shifted to the suburbs as major road constructions destroyed or disrupted older urban neighborhoods), and thus have less chance to acquire the major source of wealth in contemporary America- home ownership. It also means blacks will pay higher prices for things like substandard housing, a fact exploited by whites in creating systems of housing segregation, many of them deliberately constructed, as Richard Rothstein documents in his book <a href="http://www.epi.org/publication/the-color-of-law-a-forgotten-history-of-how-our-government-segregated-america/" target="_blank">The Color of Law </a> (2017) <br />
<br />
And unlike the misinformed (or deceptive) D'souza's claim, private individuals and entities were not the "wrong" target of civil rights enforcement or activism. While millions of private entities may have more flexibility in discrimination, because of their sheer number (compared to governments), they also represent among the severest and most pernicious agents in America's racial apartheid system. In fact, PRIVATE individuals and entities constantly invoked and used the power of government, to carry out THEIR private discriminatory agendas. In the brutal realities of race, government agency and action are not only captured by private interests, but at times are often indistinguishable. The notion that "private" discrimination is somehow OK and that it can be separated from similar government action is not only laughably naïve on the part of some, but cynically deceptive as well, on the part of others. </div><div>Examples are legion- from white unions that used government power to sandbag blacks into poorly paying "negro jobs," to the kangaroo courts and corrupt law enforcement that railroaded thousands of black men and women on bogus or trumped up charges- who were then "leased out" to private employers in a <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slavery_by_Another_Name" target="_blank">system of semi-slavery for decades</a>. In terms of civil rights however, it made little difference. Both government AND private entities worked hand in hand to oppress and discriminate- BOTH had to be tackled. The notion that private discrimination should be left alone, and only government touched is sheer nonsense, not only as far as principle, but because private entities were/are the BIGGEST agents of discrimination in aggregate, and far from being distant from government, were and are the most vocal advocates of insisting that government discriminate on THEIR BEHALF.<br />
<br />
The fact that some right wing conservatives like D'souza would exempt private discriminators, shows their true colors. ML King's famous Birmingham Campaign etc, was targeted heavily against PRIVATE entities for very good reasons. Furthermore, when government actually mandated non-discriminatory "colorblindness," it is precisely numerous PRIVATE individuals or entities that rejected any such government action. The private people wanted to CONTINUE discriminating. In the North for example, state level civil rights laws were routinely flouted in education, private housing, and accommodations and services by private entities who were licensed to supposedly serve the general public. Books such as Martha Biondi's <i>To Stand and Fight: The Struggle for Civil Rights in New York</i> (2003) detail the <a href="http://www.hup.harvard.edu/catalog.php?isbn=9780674019829&content=reviews" target="_blank">sometimes dismal picture</a> in the supposedly more "liberal" North.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">Discriminators, north and south ran a game of "NON colorblindness," precisely on the basis of PRIVATE PROPERTY RIGHTS, to discriminate, and routinely claimed government could and should do nothing about segregation because it was PRIVATE parties who discriminated.<span style="color: black;"> Private white parties said</span>: "We private people can't do anything about discrimination- its up to government." <span style="color: black;">On the other side of the game loop, government parties would say,</span> "we can't do anything about discrimination because its private." </span>
<span style="color: red;">It was a perfect circular, cynical delaying tactic, serving as a classic excuse for whites to do nothing about America's apartheid state. </span>In the meantime, America's image took severe damage overseas because of that apartheid state, and poisonous spillover effects festered internally to be manifested over generations. So where does the facile D'souza get his claim about "wrongly" targeting private parties for civil rights enforcement or activism? Stifle laughter...<br />

<b><span style="color: blue;"><span style="font-size: large;">The missing Civil Rights Act.</span> </span></b><br />
As noted above re his books, libertarian author Thomas Sowell has been often critical of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Nothing wrong with a critique but Sowell's problem is that he often delivers a distorted critique- setting up a <b>strawman</b> of false premises that can then be "rebutted" later. His biography lays out his reasoning as follows:<br />
<br />
<span style="color: blue;">"These were historic times for civil rights and for racial issues in general. While I welcomed the dismantling of the old Jim Crow laws in the South, I was increasingly disenchanted with the Utopianism which I had first noted back on the day when the Supreme Court announced its decision in Brown v. Board of Education. The idea seemed to be that white people’s sins were all that stood between us and economic and social parity throughout American society. The enormous amount of internal change needed within the black community—in education, skills and attitudes—seemed wholly un-noticed, as people rhapsodized about the brave new world to come, if and when white people became less sinful, courtesy of the federal government. Neither whites nor blacks had run out of room for improvement, but I expected no dramatic change in the relative economic positions of the races as a result of civil rights laws. Civil rights were important in and of themselves, and we should have equality before the law as a matter of justice."</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: blue;">But to expect civil rights to solve our economic and social problems was barking up the wrong tree, it seemed to me. When the Civil Rights Act of 1964 became a big political issue, my hope was that it would pass without any crippling amendments, not only for its own sake, but also in order that we could turn our attention away from such distractions and toward our own self-development as a people. In February 1964, I wrote to a friend: </span><br />
<span style="color: blue;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: blue;">'Perhaps if the omnibus civil rights bill goes through Congress undiluted, the bitter anti-climax that is sure to follow may provoke some real thought in quarters where slogans and labels hold sway at the moment.'</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: blue;">Although the Civil Rights Act of 1964 wrought dramatic legal and political changes across the South, its economic consequences were in fact a bitter anti-climax. Economic progress continued, but at no faster pace than in the past. Additional blacks entered professional and other high-level positions in the five years following passage of the Civil Rights Act—but these additions were fewer than in the five years preceding passage of the Act.

<br />
<br />
<br />Had the above laid out some <b><u>detailed </u></b>reasons as to why the CRA was "bad" it might have had the beginnings, arguably, of a conservative critique of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. But typical of Sowell's cherry-pick and strawman approaches, there are several distortions. Seven points come to mind:<br />
<br />
1) First, Sowell is ether ignorant of, or misrepresents data on black progress. He says:<br />
<br />
<span style="color: blue;"><i>"Additional blacks entered professional and other high-level positions in the five years following passage of the Civil Rights Act—but these additions were fewer than in the five years preceding passage of the Act. " </i></span>--Sowell, A Personal Odyssey p 268-269<br />
<br />
It is interesting that Sowell gives no supporting evidence to back this statement. But hard empirical data by other scholars shows the claim to be shaky. As scholars Devey and Stainback note:<br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">"Even more striking is the rapid increase in white women’s access to managerial jobs after 1971. White women move from being underrepresented in managerial jobs by 70 percent to being underrepresented by only 12 percent at the turn of the century. While they have not yet reached parity, white women have made remarkable and consistent gains. Black males also have made gains in private sector managerial employment, although their advances are not as dramatic or consistent. Black males were barely represented among managers in this EEOC reporting sample in 1966, being underrepresented by 90 percent relative to their employment in the sector. They made sustained improvements through 1983, although they were still substantially underrepresented at –54 percent of their general labor market employment. No further progress was made through the 1980s, but progress began again across the 1990s."</span><br />
<br />
<b><i>[FROM: --Donald Tomaskovic-Devey and Kevin Stainback. 2007. Discrimination and Desegregation: Equal Opportunity Progress in U.S. Private Sector Workplaces since the Civil Rights Act. Ann Amer Academ PolSci 609:49-84]</i></b><br />
<br />
The astute reader will notice that the biggest beneficiary from the Civil Rights Act is white women, but that the blacks though still substantially underrepresented, did make measurable progress better than before the Act, for the managerial level jobs, debunking Sowell's claim. Other scholars noted below also show the same pattern of black gains after the Civil Rights Act. The Act did not "cause" ALL the gain- no one piece of legislation can claim that- but it did aid the large pool of qualified blacks who had been frozen out of the market before the Act. This pool of people is somewhat analogous to black baseball players before Jackie Robinson's era- more than qualified, and in some cases better qualified than whites, and/or more competitive,, but still locked out of the game by white racism and protectionism, despite a lot of hypocritical talk about "merit" and "free markets."<br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">2) Second, most blacks had no "utopian" illusions</span> that the mere passage of the bill would erase centuries of disadvantage and/or Jim Crow. In fact even ML King had no such illusions. To be sure, <i>somewhere</i> among some 20-25 million blacks there were some "utopianists" but both "responsible" civil rights leadership and surging "black nationalists" saw passage of the bill as only on step in a long process that had much more struggle to come. Neither Malcolm X (who mocked the bill as a fraud given white America's racism) or Stokely Carmichael are on record with any "utopian" visions, nor are people like the era's NAACP leader Roy Wilkins. See also the interview with ML King quoted above in 1967 which specifically disavows "utopianism."<br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">3) The third distortion is Sowell's progress indicators. He says he expected no dramatic change in the relative economic position between blacks and whites as a result of the Act. OK, but who credible expected</span> that massive economic advantages accrued by whites over blacks during 200 years of slavery and 100 years of Jim Crow would be magically erased by a law on paper 1964? Or a 5 year span between 1964 and 1969? As already shown above, few credible civil rights leaders held such notions, nor most likely most serious competing black nationalist/militant leaders, or even most ordinary black citizens on the street. Hopeful yes. Expecting instant nirvana? Hardly.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">4) Sowell then tries a 4th distortion as already seen above, claiming "bitter" economic consequences after the Act, that whatever legal or political changes gained, would </span><span style="color: red;">yield only "bitter" economic fruit.</span> Far from yielding "bitter" fruit however, the Civil Rights Act can be credited with rather beautiful blooms as huge swathes of opportunities were opened up for blacks. See the hard data above but also below by Gavin Wright and others for example, particularly in the South, refuting Sowell's attempt to confine Civil rights progress to only the legal and political spheres. Much of this hard data was around at the time or before Sowell's book, so he has no excuse for not dealing with it, except, in an all too common pattern, he avoid evidence contrary to his ideological theme, or resorts to cherry picked factoids or anecdotes-some of only limited relevance, scope or context.<br />
<br />
It is also curious that Sowell chooses such a short time period to measure his alleged "bitter" fruit. His standard pattern is again revealing- he cherry picks his method of measuring the impact of the Civil Rights Act- making comparisons to 5 years before, with five years after. But why a mere 5 years before/after comparison given 100 years of Jim Crow? So in 5 years, the massive black disadvantages in education, employment etc imposed by whites was supposed to magically disappear? How is that even remotely supposed to be possible in the real world? Here again is the distorted strawman aspect of Sowell's work. By selecting a crude and short 5 year "before and after" comparison, the progress made can be obfuscated and downplayed. But some of the data in Sowell's own work shows the flaws in his argument. For example in an earlier book: "Civil Rights, Rhetoric or Reality," he points out that single continuously working black women had achieved wage parity with white women by 1969. How would this be possible under his alleged "bitter" fruit scenario of empty gains after the Act?<br />
<br />
And assuming his before/after comparison is correct for the sake of argument, there were a number of factors that pulled black men out of the immediate workforce in the five years directly after the law, such as the Vietnam War which in the main began in 1965 for the US. And what about those black men leaving the Vietnam era army AFTER 1965 with their GI Bil education benefits, and VA housing loan benefits (still dogged by the discriminatory "redlining" policies of the federal government) in hand who began a new working life? Five years after 1964 is not enough time to fairly gauge how they fared in moving up into professional jobs given that such jobs need education and often years of experience. In fact, a black veteran taking 3-4 years out of the workforce to use his GI Bill benefits to get that education would NOT be counted in Sowell's magical professionals/high level category. One can see the disingenuousness of Sowell' selection of a 5-year "after" comparison- by choosing a brief 5 year span, he can, again obfuscate and downplay the progress made.<br />

<br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">5) Sowell also conveniently skirts around the fact that civil rights "agitation" was a significant force PRIOR to 1964, that in fact, led to the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Progress made before 1964 is not ALL due to "rights agitation" - but such civil rights activism is itself, ALSO part of what stimulated progress.</span><br />
<br />
This "civil rights agitation" was active in the 1940's, and it was necessary. IN WW2 time and time again whites went on strike, sometimes violently to block blacks from getting better paying defense industry jobs even though there was a war on. During the war, a significant slice of white people put blockading black employment AHEAD of defeating Nazi Germany or the Japanese, and ahead of so-called "free markets." When black folk got jobs due to "free market" hiring, whites moved to shut it down. When war production was urgently needed whites moved to shut this down too. Why, when production was urgently needed at the front to defeat the evil Axis enemies of democracy? Why? Because black folk were finally getting a tiny piece of the action. QUOTE:<br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">"On May 24, 1943, Alabama Dry Dock employed nearly 7,000 black workers, none of them in skilled occupations. Suddenly, in compliance with a six-month-old directive from the President's Committee on Fair Employment Practice (FEPc), the once-recalcitrant company upgraded 12 blacks to welding jobs. The next morning, after the twelve men had gone home, the yard erupted. Responding to cries to "get every one of them Niggers off this island," enraged whites assaulted their black co-workers with pipes, clubs, and other weapons from their workaday world. Some blacks sus-tained serious injuries in the melee, and virtually all of them experienced hours of terror, which ended only when United States Army troops from nearby Brookley Field arrived on Pinto Island to restore order."</span> --FROM: Nelson, Bruce. 1993. Organized Labor and the Struggle for Black Equality in Mobile during World War II. The Journal of American History volume 80, issue 3<br />
<br />
or:<br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">"Many [strikes] were based on racism as whites objected to African Americans getting new jobs in defense plants. Perhaps the most shameful occurred in Baltimore, where black employees rose from 2 percent to 29 percent at a Western Electric plant in the first two years of the war.. 'twenty-two white women walked off their after one black woman was transferred into their formally all white department.' Their objection focused on integrated toilet facilities which previously had been segregated by race. When the War Labor Board ruled in favor of integration, 'about 70 percent of the company's workers' struck- a percentage that included almost all white workers both men and women.. Army troops took over the company for the first three months of 1944 -until the company gave into the white workers and re-segregated restrooms."</span> -- Doris Weatherford 2009, American women during World War 2: An Encyclopedia. pg 436<br />
<br />
<br />
Problems like this made A. Phillip Randolph threaten to lead a black March On Washington. Such a dangerous civil rights demonstration threat forced embarrassed white officials to begin opening up more defense jobs, and begin some halting anti-discrimination enforcement. After all how could they be boosting "democracy" against facism when they could not even guarantee basic decency for negroes in their own back yard, or keep war factories open? And so it went. In the 1940s it was civil rights agitation and lawsuits that helped force open defense industry jobs for blacks, and helped create the positive trend lines, including forcing southern state regimes to finally pay black teachers same as whites. It was civil rights agitation after black soldiers were attacked on buses that finally moved Truman to his landmark desegregation of the armed forces. In short, the dual pressure of war need AND civil rights activism, including the relentless filing of court cases forced changes, so that by the end of the war almost 9% of the defense industry's workers were black. (See- Black Labor and the American Legal System: Race, Work, and the Law By Herbert Hill, 1985). Thus "civil rights" did not begin at the 1964 CRA, but was an ongoing high-pressure struggle decades before, that played a significant part in moving the trend lines positively for blacks before 1964. Sowell's simplistic "before and after" comparison is designed to obfuscate this important point.<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">6) Sowell also skips over a common pattern that occurred when 1960s civil rights laws were passed. The "bitter fruit" experienced by some blacks was often a function of white INSTRANGIENCE AND OBSTRUCTIONISM when it came to IMPLEMENTATION of the law. </span>Memoirs of blacks from this era, along with numerous government reports, lawsuits, etc all testify to this, and show some demoralized blacks lamenting that whites were not willing to wholeheartedly or in good faith implement the new laws. It took more marches, protests, lawsuits, federal arm-twisting and even threats of abandoning non-violence to get whites to live up to their responsibilities. Memoirs of civil rights icon Fannie Lou Hamer for example show her not only lamenting that progress was so slow after the Civil Rights laws, but that fact of some whites, on both local and national levels, sandbagging and obstructing that progress. (See <i>The Senator and the Sharecropper- The Freedom Struggles of James O. Eastland and Fannie Lou Hamer- By Chris Myers Asch 2011</i>). Likewise histories of the famous Deacons For Defense and Justice (see<i> Lance Hill, 2006. The Deacons For Defence</i>) show bitter laments about white opposition including KKK assaults, beatings, shootings, and economic intimidation when blacks attempted to actually eat in restaurants or use local parks after 1964. It took armed self-defense and protest in some areas to eventually pressure the federal government to act and begin a tough crackdown on white terrorism, a crackdown that could have occurred years earlier. (See <i>US vs Original Knights of the <a href="https://law.justia.com/cases/federal/district-courts/FSupp/250/330/2341226/" target="_blank">KKK</a>, c 1965</i>). The FBI however was too busy with other things to be bothered with domestic terrorism, what with surveillance even of conservative groups and leaders like the NAACP's Roy Wilkins, and never deployed its huge apparatus to build cases against or hound white terrorist leaders as it did against black organizations.<br />
<br />
Even the famous Montgomery Bus Boycott, hailed precursor of the post-war civil rights era, failed to bring about substantial desegregation, for whites used both intimidation and subterfuge after the court decision, removing OPEN segregation ordinances and transferring enforcement to private bus companies whose drivers had full power, backed by the city, to regulate passenger seating. Southern cities using this manipulation, including Birmingham, could thus claim "plausible denial" when white bus drivers pushed around black passengers, including ordering them to the back of the bus. What can we do? said white officials piously.. It's a private company making private operating rules for "safety and efficiency"? Wink.. wink.. There even had to be follow-up lawsuits to get white people to live up to court rulings by white judges: (see <i>Bowman vs Birmingham Transit 1962- <a href="https://casetext.com/case/boman-v-birmingham-transit-company">https://casetext.com/case/boman-v-birmingham-transit-compan</a></i>) But this was not all. After the boycott victory the local black organization imploded as the city declared all other services would remain segregated, and white terrorists unleashed a bombing and intimidation campaign that almost killed Martin Luther King. It was only until the Civil Rights Act of 1964 that southern cities like Montgomery, or Birmingham, finally desegregated, despite well publicized protest campaigns, and even after 1964 some residual arm-twisting via protests and lawsuits was required for minimal compliance. There was thus plenty for blacks to be "bitter" about during and in the immediate post-civil rights era, but that bitterness was not merely a function of finding things too complicated to manage after removal of formal Jim Crow, but by continued white opposition, subterfuge and deception deployed to sandbag new black opportunities and rights. Sowell of course, conveniently skips this part of the story about "bitter" fruit.<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">7) Finally, Sowell is just plain wrong when how says that economic progress proceeded at no faster pace as in the past. </span>Numerous credible scholars debunk this assertion as detailed below. Indeed it is only by using the distorted "5-year comparison" that Sowell can support his shaky assertion. Other right-wingers have attempted to extend a simplistic "before/after" model into the 1970s, but the 1970s were a time of GENERAL economic decline, recession, oil embargoes and stagflation- hence of course after the booming 1960s, a "decline" would set in, but this was a GENERAL economic decline for the ENTIRE economy not any "bitter" fruit of the Civil Rights Act. Let's look at hard, detailed evidence rather than simplistic, cherry-picked methods.<br />
<br />
Civil Rights Laws had nationwide impact, but most significant, was their impact where discrimination was most severe- that is, the South. Sowell, who so often comes up with the most obscure factoids (such as suicide rates of Chinese in 1800s Cuba), carefully avoids even a basic regional comparison. Let's take a look at just one example among tens of thousands. In South Carolina for example blacks and whites were forbidden to work together in the same room or department - a nice deal for white people, who got to monopolize all the better paying, less dirty jobs in offices and factories. As one history notes:<br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">"Heller’s company provided employment to hundreds of single and married women in Greenville, mostly employed as machine operators. Like all manufacturing plants in South Carolina, the company was segregated into departments by race, a policy established by state law. Custom dictated that even Christmas parties be segregated. In 1960, a local newspaper article pictured Heller presenting awards to several black female employees. The caption noted that a company party was held “Tuesday night for its Negro employees . . . A similar party will be held for White employees Friday at the plant..” </span><br />
(--Hasia Diner 2018. Doing Business in America: A Jewish History)<br />
<br />
While the boss of the above company, Heller, made the courageous decision to desegregate restroom facilities shortly before the civil Rights Act of 1964, other employers were less inclined. It took the coming of the Civil Rights Era and its forcing open of basic equal access and treatment, to make solid, ongoing progress. The CRA of course did not act alone- other factors such as the post-war economic expansion played a part, but both worked together to measurably improve black employment, income, education, and other crucial life variables like health. <span style="color: red;">"Heckman and Payner (1989) use microdata from textile plants in South Carolina to study the effects of race on employment between 1940 and 1980, concluding that federal antidiscrimination policy resulted in a significant improvement in black economic status between 1965 and 1975." <i>(Pager and Shepard 2008) </i></span>Likewise detailed data such as Gavin Wright's Sharing the Prize (2013) illustrate the same point of significant black gains under after Civil Rights Laws, not only for things like employment, but in educational attainment, occupational status and even health. The forcing open of Jim Crow southern hospitals (through threat of withholding federal funds) for example was a boon to black health.

<br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: blue;">In addition, detailed analyses do show that the Civil Rights Movement era saw significant overall increases in black job growth and occupational status. As one scholarly study by Harvard Economics Professor Richard Freeman shows-QUOTE:</span></b><br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">"(1) Relative demand for and income of black workers were raised in the postwar period by governmental and private antidiscrimination activity following the 1964 Civil Rights Act and possibly by a general societal decline in individual and market purchases of discrimination relative to levels of productivity.<br /><br />(2) The black occupational distribution improved greatly in the 1960s as a result of the significant supply response of black workers to economic opportunities, as well as of the increased relative educational attainment of the black population. Black workers shifted occupations rapidly in response to reduced discrimination and improved opportunities.<br /><br />(3) Black women advanced more rapidly relative to their white counter-parts than black men in part because declines in discrimination have greater effects on job markets, such as those for women, where on-the-job training and cumulated experience are less important and where gross turnover of the work force is rapid. Such markets allow older as well as younger workers to take advantage of new opportunities, and, moreover, they are the special province of women..."</span><br />
<br />
and<br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">".. the federal law extends to the South, accounts for one-half of black employment and exhibits the greatest differences between black and white incomes. One indication of the extent of the federal effort in the South is the fact that two-thirds of employer-union-agency cases before the EEOC in 1970 originated there, with Texas, Florida, and Louisiana having the largest number of charges investigated."
</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: blue;">The reader should note the large gains in the South, where Civil Rights had more impact- something Sowell skips discussing substantively in multiple books. The data also shows a significant, measurable impact of Civil Rights Activity in the first 7-9 years after the CRA of 1964. QUOTE:</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">"The most important finding of Table 6 is that the post-1964 period did, in fact, witness an exceptional increase in black incomes, unaccounted for by previous trends, cyclical boom, or increased black educational attainment, and linked to civil rights activity. In regressions (1) and (4), the EEOC measure has a sizable significant coefficient, which implies that anti-discriminatory activity was responsible for increases in the black-white income ratio, from 1965 to 1971, of 15 percent for males and 27 percent for females, or 9 and 16 percentage points, respectively, from levels of about 60 percent in the early sixties."</span><br />

<span style="color: red;">And there it is- Sowell's claims refuted by hard data.</span> Sowell in his book "Wealth and Poverty" 2015 proffers the same distorted pattern as to any discussion of CONTEMPORARY discrimination against blacks. It is as if such a thing barely exists, and the main problem is "liberals" stirring up trouble. But as we have seen in <a href="http://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2015/08/how-obama-plays-upon-white-guilt-hilary.html" target="_blank">previous blog posts</a>, contemporary discrimination is very much alive and well. And contemporary studies such as Pager and Shepard 2008 above, (<i><a href="https://scholar.harvard.edu/files/pager/files/annualreview_discrimination.pdf" target="_blank">The sociology of discrimination- Racial discrimination in employment, housing, credit, consumer markets.</a></i>) illustrate this in detail, whether by careful statistical analysis, "tester" audits of employers or landlords, or studies of EEOC claims and court cases. Sowell' standard method- across many books- to poo-poo the effects of Civil Rights Laws by using a simplistic macro, national level comparison -such as income shortly before Civil Rights laws, versus income after fails. </div><div><br /><div>Note- this does not mean that a critique of naïve notions about what the Civil Rights Law could or could not do is not of value, nor does it mean that the INTERNAL work that needed to be done among blacks has received enough attention. Sure. Black nationalists and such related folk have made such arguments for 5 decades, as have a number of black liberals. But at least, if you are going to throw down a critique, put an honest one on the floor.<br />

It is difficult to say whether Affirmative Action head count QUOTA plans in the 1970s (such as in higher Education for example) had as much impact as the opening up of equal opportunities under the Civil Rights Act. AA head count Quotas and Civil Rights Equal Opportunities, while related (such as in courts requiring discriminating employers to finally start promoting women or blacks after rights legislation or cases), are not the same thing. Claiming body-count quotas to be "essential" for black advance some 3 decades after the 1970s is a shaky exercise, especially given rising black educational attainment, and economic changes. But whatever the complex mix of factors, hard data debunks some of Sowell's persistent attempts, and more directly, attempts by such right-wing public intellectuals as Dinesh Dsouza or Charles Murray, to poo-poo or dismiss civil rights legislation and policies as a significant factor in black gains in the 1960s.<br />
<br />
It should also be noted that the1964 Act was the culmination of decades long struggle with numerous small and large battles continuously fought, on multiple fronts, in the north and south. The 1940s for example saw court decisions equalizing the pay for white and black teachers. Constant agitation and threatened march disruptions, combined with labor shortages during WW2, forced open much needed employment for blacks. The 1954 Brown Decision, while it did not cause much integration over 10 years, did force the white south to begin UPGRADING and BUILDING NEW black schools, and pumping money into black education, not out of the goodness of white hearts, but so whites could AVOID the tsunami of litigation and court decisions for school integration coming down the pipeline after WW2. (Klarman 2004- From Slavery to Civil Rights). These investments did aid blacks in positioning themselves to seize better opportunities opened up by the CRA. Likewise the desegregation of the armed forces, after decades of civil rights "agitation", a courageous decision by President Harry Truman, was a boon for blacks. Even Thomas "poo-poo" Sowell who to be a photographer in the Marines which once excluded blacks' from such occupations. Further benefit was derived from the GI Bill, though such was marked by much discrimination against black veterans. All of these laid the foundation for the CRA which would not have passed without them.<br />

<b>Interestingly enough, the post-Civil Rights years, saw clear gains in not only general Black academic achievement but in IQ as well. </b>Black Americans have gained between 4 to 6 IQ points relative to non-Hispanic whites between 1972 and 2002 on 4 major tests of cognitive ability. Dickens and Flynn (2006) make no claim that their finding covers ALL tests, nor do they claim blacks have caught up with whites, and they clearly note that other instruments do not show as large a gain
(2-3 points versus 4 to 6.)
Nevertheless, depending on the test taken, gains small and large, relative to whites are real, and the range of years showing improvement covers the years of the "evils" of the welfare state as well as the "evil" affirmative action years. Yet within this period, the gains were registered. Per Dickens and FLynn QUOTE:<br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">"It is often asserted that blacks have made no IQ gains on whites, despite relative environmental gains, and that this adds credibility to the case that the black/white IQ gap has genetic origins. Until recently, there have been no adequate data to measure black IQ trends. We analyze data from nine standardization samples for four major tests of cognitive ability. These suggest that blacks have gained 5 or 6 IQ points on non-Hispanic whites between 1972 and 2002. Gains have been fairly uniform across the entire range of black cognitive ability."</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="color: blue;">The gap in employment chances between whites and African Americans leads to a huge gap in unemployment rates, even long after the recession. In May of this year, African-American millennials faced a 16.6 percent unemployment rate, compared to a 7.1 percent rate for whites of the same age range (18 to 34 years old). The study attributes the employment gap mainly to hiring discrimination, high incarceration rates for black people, and African Americans’ lack of inherited wealth from past generations due to a long history of discrimination. Less inherited wealth results in low homeownership rates and high deficits among African Americans: While a college-educated white American has an average net worth of $75,000, a college-educated black American has a net worth of less than $17,500."</span></span></div>

We argue that residential segregation created a unique niche of minority clients who were differentially marketed risky subprime loans that were in great demand for use in mortgage-backed securities that could be sold on secondary markets. We test this argument by regressing foreclosure actions in the top 100 U.S. metropolitan areas on measures of black, Hispanic, and Asian segregation while controlling for a variety of housing market conditions, including average creditworthiness, the extent of coverage under the Community Reinvestment Act, the degree of zoning regulation, and the overall rate of subprime lending. </span><br />

To isolate subprime lending as the causal mechanism through which segregation influences foreclosures, we estimate a two-stage least squares model that confirms the causal effect of black segregation on the number and rate of foreclosures across metropolitan areas. We thus conclude that segregation was an important contributing cause of the foreclosure crisis, along with overbuilding, risky lending practices, lax regulation, and the bursting of the housing price bubble."</span><br />

In the end, subprime lending not only saddled borrowers with onerous terms and unforeseen risks, but it also reinforced existing patterns of racial segregation and deepened the black-white wealth gap (Bond and Williams 2007; Friedman and Squires 2005; Williams et al. 2005). In the new regime of racial inequality, African American and Latino homeowners bore a disproportionate share of costs stemming from the bursting of the housing bubble.</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;"></span><br />
<span style="color: blue;">Compared with whites with similar credit profiles, down payment ratios, personal characteristics, and residential locations, African Americans were much more likely to receive subprime loans (Avery, Brevoort, and Canner 2007; Avery, Canner, and Cook 2005; Bocian, Ernst, and Li 2006; Pennington-Cross, Yezer, and Nichols 2000). Moreover, after controlling for background factors, black and Hispanic homeowners were significantly more likely than whites to receive loans with unfavorable terms such as prepayment penalties.. higher cost ratios.. and higher rate spreads.The racial gap in subprime lending holds across all income levels with perhaps an increase at higher income levels (Institute on Race and Poverty 2009; Williams et al. 2005).</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;"></span><br />
<span style="color: blue;">During the 1990s, the United States was increasingly characterized by a dual, racially segmented mortgage market, one that was structured by the race of borrowers and the racial composition of neighborhoods (Apgar and Calder 2005; Stuart 2003; U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development 2000). Controlling for neighborhood characteristics, the incidence of subprime lending was significantly greater among black and Hispanic borrowers (Calem, Hershaff, and Wachter 2004) and among people who had not gone to college (Manti, Raca, and Zorn 2004). As a result, from 1993 to 2000, the share of subprime mortgages going to households in minority neighborhoods rose from 2 to 18 percent (Williams et al. 2005). The rise of racially targeted subprime lending destabilized minority neighborhoods by increasing turnover (Gerardi and Willen 2008), and the destabilizing effects on homeownership did not remain confined to minority neighborhoods, but spilled over into adjacent white and mixed neighborhoods (Schuetz et al. 2008).</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;"></span><br />
<span style="color: blue;"> National evidence from a longitudinal study of homeowners from 1999 to 2005 shows that the racial gap in homeownership exit rates widened in a way that cannot be explained by social, economic, or financial factors that historically accounted for black-white differentials (Turner and Smith 2009). The coincidence of the peak in subprime lending with the inexplicable decline in the stability of black home ownership and exit rates offers compelling evidence that segregation and the new face of unequal lending combined to undermine black residential stability and erode any accumulated wealth (Shapiro et al. 2010)"<br />--Jacob Rugh, Dougls Massey 2010.

<b>Summary and bottom line</b><br />
<br />
America is no longer the open apartheid state it was in the past, and in many ways has changed for the better. But contrary to numerous popular narratives, this post shows that serious, credible scholars document the clear existence of racial discrimination in housing, employment, credit and consumer markets, a pattern dishonestly denied, dismissed or downplayed by right-wing and libertarian pundits and intellectuals. This state of things is important to remember in an era of fake news, where a vast propaganda effort is underway to distort and lie about what is actually happening on the ground now, and what actually happened in the past. Part of the propaganda barrage is that whites somehow are "victims" that are so good and virtuous - lacking racial consciousness or bias, while the evil minorities take advantage of them. This is the bogus propaganda spiel of white nationalists like Jared Taylor for example, and other sympathizers. Why just look at the "giveways" of "<a href="http://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2014/01/the-affirmatve-action-propaganda.html" target="_blank">affirmative action</a>" to the culluds - oh and never mind that the <a href="http://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2011/04/affirmative-action-primary.html" target="_blank">primary beneficiaries of "affirmative action" are white women</a>, or that the main beneficiaries of preferential treatment in college admissions are white legacy/alumni types.<br />
<br />
Authors like Taylor elsewhere contradict their own arguments. He commends whites for separating themselves from blacks, commends discrimination in favor of whites in housing, jobs etc, then turns around and laments that whites lack "racial consciousness" or "identity" per his book "White Identity." But this is nonsense. <span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: 11pt;">If white people are still so racially sensitive
as to segregate off themselves, and favor their own people in housing, jobs and social contact, then how can they have no racial "consciousness?" </span> This is the cynical, deceptive, dismal reasoning out there embraced by tens of millions, fed by around-the-clock propaganda mills online, and offline. This state of affairs is a warning to black folk, particularly black youth, that they have much work ahead of them, and that little time can afford to be wasted on the frivolous and unproductive. To black young people especially- things are better than in the past, but harsh realities still await in employment, housing and other spheres. Stop being naive, stop wasting time, and get down to bidniss.<br />

Part 1 of our Sowell trilogy reviewed the book "<a href="http://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2017/07/sowell-liberal-intellectuals-and-hard.html" target="_blank">Intellectuals and Race</a>". Part 2 looked at a slice of the recent book- <a href="http://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2017/07/sowell-2-wealth-poverty-and-politics.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: blue;">Wealth and Poverty: An International Perspective 2015.</span></a> This piece, part 3 of our trilogy, reviews the rest of "Wealth, Poverty and Politics: An International Perspective" - specifically that part regarding alleged "tropical development." It is an article of faith in numerous right wing, "HBD" or "hereditarian" quarters, including the arguments of assorted right wing scholars like Lynn, Rushton, Vanhannen, etc, that "harsh "conditions in temperate or colder zones promoted
time urgency and discipline compared to "lagging" tropical peoples. But is this really so? The argument appears in Sowell's book "Wealth, Poverty and Politics: An International Perspective," and when put to the test, comes up short.
Let's get down to business.<br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
The current writer is a supporter of SOME of Thomas Sowell's
work, but over the past 15 years it has lost much of its bite, and too often,
seems a re-thread of earlier stuff. Sowell's latest book- Wealth, Poverty and
Politics: An International Perspective, continues in his usual
hereditarian/libertarian vein, illustrated nicely by his discussion of the old
hereditarian saw about the greater goodness and virtue of cold climate folk
versus those slower-witted tropical peoples with their pineapples and bananas.
Yes, Thomas Sowell actually does talk about "pineapples and bananas." Now where have we
seen such bogus imagery befo?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: blue;"><b>His basic
argument- which is typical of the racialist "hereditarian" or HBD
crowd, is to claim so-called "life-threatening" challenges faced by
people in the temperate zones, who have to do all this terribly hard work to
stave off winter starvation. Due to this, the good cold climate folk develop a
sense of "urgency" and "discipline." Meanwhile back there
in the tropics- they have so much food "spontaneously supplied by
nature" - you know, like "bananas and pineapples" - they never
really got on the ball.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></b></span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
This kind of dubious reasoning is rampant among certain "HBDers,"
"hereditarians" and allied crowd of conservatives, right-wing
libertarians and racialist distorters of various sorts, some ensconced in a <a href="http://www.the-scientist.com/?articles.view/articleNo/12397/title/U--Delaware-Reaches-Accord-On-Race-Studies/" target="_blank">well-funded network</a> of rightist think tanks and venues. Others are more amateur types or trolls embedded in snarling racialist online forums. Among them are not simply random bloggers
off the Internet but well educated and published academics such as JP Rushton, Linda Gottfredson
and Richard Lynn. Their work is intended to be taken seriously. Typical is Richard
Lynn and Tatu Vanhanen, in their 2002 book, <i>IQ and the Wealth of Nations</i>. In that
tome, the authors advance a farrago of distortion including chastising Africans
for "<b>failing</b>" to domesticate species such as the <st1:place><st1:placename>African</st1:placename>
<st1:placetype>Cape</st1:placetype></st1:place> buffalo, one of the hugest,
fiercest ungulates in the world. It should be noted that in <st1:place>Asia</st1:place>,
similar fierce species have not been domesticated either. People opted for
milder tempered beasts to domesticate. But only Africans are condemned as
"backward" with seemingly "low mental capacities" for the
eminently sensible choice of avoiding large, unpredictable, dangerous beasts
that are apt to attack nearby humans.<br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
Sowell strikes up a similar note in his own way, himself
being part of the well funded network of think tanks such as the Hoover
Institution. But he somewhat contradicts his own writing. After several pages
regaling the reader about how terrible the tropics is, and how good the
temperate zones are climatically and geographically, he then shifts to the
standard "we have it so tough here in the cold" argument of the
hereditarians. Let's look at it- quote:</div>

<b><span style="color: red;">"The life-threatening
challenge that dominated the temperate zones of the world for millennia was
growing enough food during the limited spring and summer months to last through
the cold winter months. It was an inescapable necessity, for sheer physical
survival, to begin plowing or otherwise breaking up the land for planting when
the ground thawed in the spring. This meant that peoples living where seasons
changed drastically had to develop a sense of urgency about time, and the
discipline to adjust to its requirements- qualities that were not nearly so
necessary in places where food could be grown year round, in addition to the
availability of much food spontaneously supplied by nature in many tropical
lands. The other inescapable necessity of the temperate zones, where seasons
are so different, was saving food to store for the winter. This required not
only the discipline of saving, but also the conversion of perishable foods like
milk and fruit into storable foods like cheese and jam. Here again, this was
not such a pressing necessity in the tropics." </span></b></div>

<b>Mysteriously missing cold climate European "role models."</b> But the above is
dubious. Right off the bat the question arises- if cold climate promoted oh so virtuous things like "urgency" and discipline" why did it take so long for "urgent" northern European "role models" to develop civilization? How could they lag behind so long with all the advantages they had? Historically Northern Europeans are also-rans, with significant world influence only within the last 600 years. Where were these paragons the previous 10,000 years before?<br />
<br />
Even more interesting, his own research (Ethnic America 1981) shows some major cold climate northern European peoples like the Irish migrants to the US being notorious for "lack of time urgency" and being indifferent farmers. The rural Protestant "Scotch Irish" for example were not known for their farming acumen, though gaining fame for drinking and fighting. Likewise the Catholic Irish, on the opposite end of the spectrum, were heavily an urbanized people that did not go back to the rural peasant conditions from whence they sprang. The (supposedly more virtuous northern European stock) Irish were not sterling role models. and contemporary observers (whom Sowell puts his trust in often) described them as violent, thriftless and often drunk. As far as agriculture, the rural Catholic Irish were unimpressive, relying heavily on potatoes, with little use of advanced technology, advanced management or diversification. As one history puts it:<br />
<br />
<i><span style="color: red;">For people as poor and as miserable as rural Irish Catholics, sex, the companionship of wives and husbands, and the joy of children, like good and even bad whiskey, were comforts and escapes in a normally hopeless existence. Potatoes also figured heavily in Ireland's population boom. An easy-to- cultivate vegetable that flourished in less than excellent soil, the nutritious potato dominated the rural Irish menu.. Potatoes made it possible to feed many with few resources, encouraging the young to marry and begin large families.."</span></i><br />

<br />
<br />
<b>Europeans have no monopoly on "urgency."</b> And who says cold climate paragons had this oh so much greater
"sense of urgency" compared to the tropical peoples? Hell, urgency is
job one in many tropical agricultural zones which have short growing seasons
due to the onset of frequent droughts. Torrential rains leaching nutrients out
of already poorer soils also shortens tropical growing seasons with crop damage
and flooding. Tropical people had to hustle on the agricultural front before
all these negatives piled on. So since when is "urgency" and
"discipline" in growing seasons any monopoly of supposedly more
virtuous cold climate folk?<br />
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Tropical people did not have have time
to sit around with "bananas and pineapples." One can just sense the
obsolete sources the aging Sowell is using, as well as his own failure to assimilate new
data. Six areas of blunt reality of African tropical agriculture illustrate
this. It should ne noted however that these are not be all-end all "explanations" for the diversity in African agriculture, which includes Nile Valley agriculture not just "jungle" shifting cultivation. These factors include:</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
--More difficult crop storage</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
--More devastating and destructive pests </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
--Greater chance of severe droughts and flooding</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
--Lower fertility of tropical soils</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
--Fluctuating growing seasons</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
--Erratic weather with more famine threat</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: red;">The above do not apply to ALL tropical areas, at ALL times. Obviously there was variation, and areas of differing fertility, water access and pest infestation, etc.</span> Areas with rich volcanic soil for example, fared better than areas of rain-leached laterite soils. However even given this variation, there was no "easy" time in general, on the average, when it came to agriculture in the tropics, contrary to the claims of assorted "HBD" adherents. Crop storage for example, is more challenging in the tropics- there being
no natural refrigerant of snow and ice to help. Sure, people of the northern climes could spend more time on food preservation, they had a more favorable climate and a lesser pest burden to indulge with that time. Not so in the tropic African climes- which by the way include much desert. Another key issue is pest burden. Tropical Africans worked hard to fight off a massive series of pests- pests that did not die off during the
winter season as in the more favorable European temperate and cold-climate zones- which were hardly the picture of unmitigated "harshness" painted by many. For the laboring African farmer, this meant
elaborate storage pits and silos, not as large as the barns of northern <st1:place>Europe</st1:place> to be sure, but quite reasonable in local context.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
And with no natural refrigerant close at hand, tropical
Africans had to hustle to process their crops into a form survivable under hot,
humid conditions, and the next drought-induced famine threat. Root crops for
example- a key staple- have to be pounded into flour or paste, dried and
stored, as did the "bananas" and other starchy staples. If stored
whole, storage bins and silos had to be carefully designed so crops could
"cure" properly and not be destroyed by the heat and fungal
infection. In some cases toxic poisons had to be removed from staple crops-
like cassava (manioc) before it could be eaten. And stored foods had to be
checked frequently to guard against spoilage amid the heat and pests. But even with
storage systems some food had to be eaten quickly. There was no time for "ease"
with "bananas and pineapples." Urgent work was needed under the rainfall
regime- with quick growing crops alternated with longer term ones in a
continual struggle to keep the food flowing before the next drought, or
nutrient leaching torrential rain.
Grain
staples of more fertile Eurasian soils by contrast, have relatively lower
moisture content at maturity, and long term storage is easier.
Again, <b>there was variation,</b> with some tropical farmers in some areas having a better situation, <span style="color: red;">but overall, where is this so called "easy"
life led by tropical Africans, that racial hereditarians allege? </span></div>

<b>Spontaneous nonsense:</b> To recap- Tropical peoples in <st1:place>Africa</st1:place> had plenty of work requiring "urgency" and "discipline"
with no time to wait around for Sowell's laughable food,
"spontaneously" supplied by nature. Tropical Africans have never
enjoyed all this "spontaneous" food right-wingers allege. As one
expert puts it<span style="color: red;">: "environmental conditions are
frequently restrictive and fragile. Most tropical soils have low fertility due
to water erosion, leaching, and acidification in more humid climates and to high
temperatures and wind soil erosion in dryer ones (Bennema, 1977; Lal and
Miller, 1990). Warm humid and subhumid regions are exposed to explosive pest
populations, flooding, and crop storage and transportation problems (National
Research Council, 1993), while semiarid regions suffer frequently from
prolonged droughts (Okigbo, 1990)."</span></div>

<b>A European tale of woe?</b> <b>Hardly.. </b>The temperate zones are hardly areas of dire starvation and distress. For one thing the temperate zone has a favorable <span style="color: red;"><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Guns-Germs-Steel-Fates-Societies/dp/0393317552" target="_blank">East-West </a></span>climatic axis allowing easy movement of key plant and animal domesticates, from wheat, to horses. It also has more fertile soils than the tropics, (even though some growing seasons were short), snow melt irrigation, lesser pest problems due to the cold that kills numerous pests, etc, etc. All such things often allow multiple crops in a single season- a favorable food environment actually. And who says things are so dire in temperate zones?
Temperate growing seasons can last as long as 8 months per year, depending on
annual temperature and elevation. Along the southern coast of <st1:state><st1:place>California</st1:place></st1:state>
for example the growing season lasts 365 days. Seasons are also affected by
temperature and some crops like the massively important wheat grains only<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>need a modest temperature in place to do its
thing. Wheat, will sprout at just 5 degrees Celsius (40 degrees Fahrenheit)-
meaning it can get the job done in weather rather chilly for humans -
undermining the dire picture painted of frantic struggles due to cold. These

<b>Urgency? What urgency?</b> <b>The tropical farmer is an
expert on "urgency." </b>As far as poor soils for example- tropical farmers adapted the
reasonable method of shifting cultivation- which again, required considerable
hustle in land clearing, planting, harvesting and then moving, to stay ahead of declining
soil fertility and in many areas, inevitable dry and wet season drought and flooding. But African shifting cultivators did not simply "plant and move." They managed their plots in a rational, sophisticated way, including use of green and animal manures, terracing, soil mounding, increased labor inputs for such tasks as weeding, and carefully mixing a variety of crops (some maturing at different times) to aid in pest control, stretch out fertility, and spread the economic risks leading up to the harvest. This detailed management was necessary, for the tropical African farmer not only has
"jungle", sweltering savannah and even desert to deal with, but an explosive number of pests and parasites
hindering his enterprise, much more than the temperate farmer, who is blessed with winters that kill off numerous pests, and more predictable snow-melt water for irrigation from higher altitudes. And on top of the
hindrances caused by drought and its opposite- torrential rain and floodings - huge parts of tropical Africa also include deserts, and growing seasons in
deserts are very short, much shorter than the European temperate zone seasons enjoyed by
"urgent" farmers there. As one source notes- <span style="color: red;">"Famines can be
traced to such erratic weather patterns as high (causing floods) and low
(causing droughts) precipitation in climate zones that otherwise would be expected
to produce successful crop yields... Yet climatic and especially rain
variability makes tropical agriculture often a risky business, and many famines
in the tropics are related to drought."</span> The racialist would attribute
problems with overcoming<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>frequent tropical famines to
"genetic deficits" but such <b>simpleton</b> reasonings fail to capture the
realities of farming and climate in many tropic areas. <br />

misrepresentation and distortion provides the ideological foundations of a
right-wing "libertarian" or "HBD" project. This project may
vary by person, group or place, but its heart is race, and cynically
disparaging and distorting the history, culture and achievements of tropical

<b>I know what you are thinking pilgrim. What about the "easy" tropical or sub-tropical agriculture enjoyed by the dusky natives of the Nile Valley in Africa?</b><br />
<b><br /></b>This is a variant of the "easy tropical life" narrative favored by the "hereditarian" and right-wing crowd. At first glance, the Nile Valley seems a perfect case. Why all the natives had to do was wait for the waters to rise, throw some seeds in the rich silt, do some minor weeding, and retire to drink beer (or eat pineapples and bananas) until harvest. <span style="color: blue;">Alas, this variant of the narrative is bogus, like the rest. Far from being "easy", even in the favored Nile Valley, agriculture was hard work. </span>The land had to be prepared, plowed and tilled and divided into basins-(decrue or basin agriculture, a technique often seen in other parts of Africa). Canals, levees and dams had to be dug, constructed and maintained to capture the flood waters in the basins. Spillways and canals had to be made and maintained to siphon off excess water as the flood receded. And the whole system had to be calibrated carefully, including water levels and seasonal indicators such as the positioning of various astronomical data to ensure a smooth planting season. Failure to be prepared, could mean hunger or starvation. Note how scholar Bruce Trigger above says that the mere silt of the Nile was not the only key to farming. Nile silt yielded a modest level of nutrients, <i>INITIALLY</i>. What kept Egyptian fields in business was fallow periods, crop rotation, and the manure of tens of thousands of farm animals, managed for just that purpose, among others. Oh and on top of all this, there were quite a few building projects going on.. In short, it was mostly backbreaking work, even with the Nile inundation. Where is this "easy" time for tropical Africans assorted racialists and their apologists keep talking about?<br />
<br />
There was no "easy time" to be had in the agriculture of the ancient Nile Valley of Africa, and 15-16% of Egypt lies in the topical belt by the way, with overlap of tropical Africans and cultures into the sub-tropics. Unsurprisingly, many right-wingers seem to think that Africans are static folk, huddled conveniently behind some sort of fixed, climatic "apartheid" barrier. But alas, this mythology does not hold. Africans DO move around- from sub-tropics to tropics, and within those tropics are numerous diverse micro-climes. The hot dry air of deserts within the tropics for example easily yields narrow noses. No "race mix" is needed or invoked to explain away such routine human variation. So much for "easy" tropical narratives...<br />

<b>European agricultural technology unimpressive on many counts until relatively late, and African alternatives were more workable given specific local environments.</b><br />
But you say pilgrim, weren't those Africans inefficient with their hoe agriculture compared to advanced European technology such as plows? Not necessarily. First, as we have already seen, some northern Europeans made heavy use of "inefficient" tools, like the Irish with their small spade-like <i>loy </i>in cultivating marginal hilly land for their potato crop. Turns out that this "backward" tool was MORE efficient for the Irish than expensive, and cumbersome plow teams, as we shall see. Second, European agricultural tech often lagged behind that of Asia (China in particular) as Professor Joseph Needham's magisterial surveys of Chinese technology show, and European techniques included a hugely inefficient plow and plowing system that required the plow team to stop every few minutes to knock clods of dirt off plow instruments. European systems also typically required a large team of animals, sometimes horses and oxen combined. It was slow, expensive and cumbersome, and until further advances in the 1700s was unimpressive compared to more agile African farming systems using hoe, direct seed implantation, basin irrigation, soil management like terracing and mounding, and mixed cropping (<i>Precolonial African Industry and the Atlantic Trade, 1500-1800 - John Thornton 1990. African Econ Hist 19.</i>) Even more inefficient and wasteful was the European method of broadcasting seed over the fields rather than more detailed placement in the earth. See Needham- reference above. By contrast the "backward" African farming technique of raking and raising mounds with hoes and then inserting seed directly in the earth, rather than throwing them far and wide as in the Euro "broadcast" system, compared favorably. Thus when the whole picture is considered, European agricultural methods and technology were not only sometimes unimpressive on the merits, but within the tropical African environment would compare unfavorably to indigenous methods.<br />

<b>Did "backward" tropical Africans "miss out" on technology such as the plow?</b> But wait you say. Even if some European technology was unimpressive, or outside Europe, ineffective in many tropical environments, how is it that black Africans never developed the demonstrably more efficient plow until Arabs or Europeans showed up? Such arguments and associated variants, are dubious for several reasons. </div><div class="MsoNormal"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal">1) First, "Black Africa" would have to include large swathes of the Egyptian Nile Valley including large pieces of Egypt and Nubia. Nubia by the way in ancient times, actually was made up of a slice of today's Egypt, as far as Aswan in southern Egypt. Then there were the foundational Egyptian populations such as the Badari, who not only how many linkages with other Africans (as anthropological data repeatedly show- (<i><u>Keita 2005, Pinhasi and Stock 2011 et al.</u></i>), but said Badarians, using a mixed farming system, for their time, actually produced one of the highest population densities in the whole NE African and Middle Eastern region- QUOTE:<br />
<i><span style="background-color: lime;"><span style="background-color: yellow;">"Archaeological evidence suggests that the Badarian civilization had higher population density than did any other contemporaneous civilizations." (Gabriel, 1987, Hassan 1988).</span></span>"</i> <i>--Pinhasi and Stock 2011. Human Bioarchaelogy of the Transition to Agriculture.</i><br />So there were "black Africans" in place for millennia in the Nile Valley, Nubia and Egypt, foundational populations, going from prehistoric into historic times, who were on the cutting edge as far as productive agriculture, and who were using things like the plow. The Nubians are also the people ethnically closest to the Egyptians, (<i>Yurco 1989, Godde 2009 et al)</i>, and in both Nubia and Egypt, there were plenty of plows in use in ancient times.<br />
<br />2) Second, even if Nubia and Egypt were excluded, there is still the use of the plow long BEFORE Arabs or Europeans showed up in Ethiopia and the southern Nilotic Sudan, which, (many people seem unable or unwilling to grasp this fact), ARE in "sub-Saharan" Africa. It is thus bogus to speak about "sub-Saharan" Africa lacking the plow. </div><div class="MsoNormal"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal">3) Third, as already demonstrated earlier, plows need certain conditions to make them worth the effort compared to available alternatives. Attempting European-style plowing systems, and "seed broadcast" techniques on thin tropical forest or savannah soils would have been an exercise in the ludicrous. In addition, European plow technology and use, and sowing methods, until comparatively recent times were often inefficient, and unimpressive. </div><div class="MsoNormal"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal">4) Fourth, plow teams require large numbers of healthy draft animals. In many areas of the continent, pests like the tsetse fly decimated domesticated load-bearing animals, as well as people, though over centuries in some limited areas, resistant breeds developed. Some cultures prized cattle, just as fishing cultures in Europe continued to look to the sea for a living, but for Africans, expansion of farming or even herding operations into tsetse infested bush had to be weighed against other options. What's the point of pushing so-called "advanced" plow methods if the tsetse fly would decimate your draft animals, and attack available workers with sleeping sickness? Limiting farming expansion or even stock-raising into pest-ridden areas was a reasonable option given problems at hand. just as plague-ridden areas in Europe were avoided or quarantined. </div><div class="MsoNormal"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal">5) Fifth, many tropical African soils while obviously varying from place to place, suffered from thinness or declining quality- that is mostly only the topsoil was fertile in the short-run, a condition exacerbated by heavy rainfall periods that leached away nutrients once the initial seasons of fresh clearance and ash fertilizer were completed. After that it was downhill- hence the use of shifting "slash and burn" systems in many areas to stay ahead of dropping fertility, although Africans also used other methods like mulching, terracing, fallowing, manuring, etc. to the same ends in favorable spaces. Specific crop mixes in different areas also improved productivity, hence widespread intercropping to spread risks and better utilize available soils. But Aside from the limitations soils imposed on the productivity of many crops. and aside from the diseases that crippled draft animals, declining topsoil made plow agriculture a poor choice in many areas as the plows would only turn up the poorer soil below the increasingly depleted top layer. As one analysis puts it: <span style="color: red;">"The problem was that in most regions of pre-colonial Africa the soil nutrients were concentrated in the topsoil. This meant that the good soil was vulnerable to erosion, and its fertility was severely depleted when the land was exposed to wind28 and heavy rain. Another problem was that the thin topsoil made plough agriculture inefficient, because turning up the soil with a plough would bring the less fertile soils to the surface. This is one reason why the plough was used in only a few regions of pre-colonial Africa."</span> <span style="color: red;">(Frankema et al, 2023. The History of African Development- 2023-AEHN pp 27-28)</span>. <br />Thus Africans that supposedly "failed" to develop or use European plowing systems were not "irrational" or "backward." To the contrary their choice could be and was a quite logical one given local environments.</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
<br />
6) Sixth for technology to be efficiently adopted, it must be applied rationally in existing environments. As noted above, many tropical African environments also hindered use of wheeled transport, particularly pre-colonial West Africa, though wheeled vehicles are depicted from ancient times at Tondia, near Goundam, south of Timbuktu in today's Mali, and possibly at Kourki south of the Niger bend in the Republic of Niger (Law 1973). Some scholars note that the tsetse fly belt which its debilitating effect on load-bearing draft animals, and the presence of terrain such as jungle or brush make extensive use of wheeled conveyances inefficient or impractical. One Old Calabar ruler in today's Nigeria for example imported a European style carriage but all the draft horses to pull it died. They had to be replaced with men. The problem of expense and impracticality is illustrated also by the gift of a European carriage to the ruler of Asante in precolonial times, which required the construction of new roads though brush or jungle terrain, including building of new bridges to cross streams, with a final obstacle: inability of the vehicle to move through narrow streets in the capital city, requiring new streets to be made. Practical and economic considerations to the use of various technologies are not unique to Africa. Scholar R.W Bulliett notes that wheeled vehicles declined and became uncommon throughout the entire Middle East early during early medieval times, as people adopted cheaper, more rational solutions in the form of pack animals such as camels.[<i><span style="color: red;">(Robin Law (1976). "Horses, Firearms, and Political Power in Pre-Colonial West Africa, Past and Present". Past and Present. 72 (1): 112–132.)</span></i> <br />It should be obvious common sense to the intelligent reader by now that Africans, like peoples elsewhere made the same sorts of rational calculation about the deployment of technology. The Romans used pack camels to cross North African desert terrain for example, not allegedly "advanced" wheeled carts from Italy that would quickly break down. Likewise the Africans of Ancient Egypt deployed wooden sleds for moving massive blocks of stone to their massive tomb and temple construction sites, a technological choice infinitely more rational than supposedly "advanced" wheeled carts or conveyances that would either crack under the weight or bog down in sandy soils. Alas, double standards and hypocrisy show more than common sense among assorted self-styled "racial experts" on Africans such as "hereditarian" "experts" like Lynn, Vanhaven et al noted above. <br />

<br />
<br />
<b>Climate- a convenient justification for slavery. </b><br />
But pilgrim you say aha! Given that the tropics were a difficult environment doesn't this explain slavery? "Urgent" white people could not work in the tropical heat, so presto- we got Africans, a tropical people, for a perfect solution! This is a classic justification for slavery that some textbooks and scholars hint at even to this day- like David Landes in <i>Wealth and Poverty of Nations (</i>1999). But this too is dubious. First American plantation slavery falls OUTSIDE the tropical zone, and Europeans did intense agriculture when they had to, in the sweltering semi-tropics of Florida, Georgia, the Carolinas, etc. The problem was not "climate" but getting a cheap labor force you can brutalize and bludgeon for centuries, for pennies on the dollar, to do the heavy lifting and even some of the associated skilled work.</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
Second, white convicts, indentured servants and settlers managed in the tropics when they had to, as shown in Australia, Barbados, and thousands of European small farmers in various tropical locales of South America. It was not "climate" but again, the opportunity to bludgeon, brutalize and relentlessly exploit a multi-generational captive labor force at relatively little cost, compared to the reluctant white setters, convicts and indentured servants of Australia, the Caribbean, South America, and the southern US, who when they had to, managed just fine in the tropical and near-tropical zones. The "climate factor" does not let folk off the hook for slavery.<br />

<b>Pilgrim you ask: But what about evolutionary patterns? The ancient Caucasoid peoples of Europe in harsh cold climates going back to the Cro-magnons developed advanced cognitive skills which come down to the present time. This is shown in revolutionary developments by these Caucasoid peoples circa 30,000-40000 kya.</b> <br />
<br />
Sounds good, except, as credible scholarship such as McBreaty and Brooks show in "<i>The Revolution that Wasn't"</i> (2000) - alleged "revolutionary" cognitive or cultural advances had already taken place in Africa BEFORE significant migration to Europe. And even more upsetting to certain "hereditarian" racial theorists:<br />
<br />
1) The alleged ancient "Caucasoids" were not all some claim them to be. Their limb proportions and other data actually show them to be of tropical provenance, migrants from Africa via various pathways- from land migrations via the "Middle East" to boat migrants across the Mediterranean. They would join with hunter gathers and steppe nomads in later eras and various ethnic mixes would take place, but the heart-warming picture of virtuous "Caucasoids" exclusively roaming the ancient European landscape is debunked by the data.<br />
<br />
2) The "cognitive revolution" of symbolic processing, art, advanced toolmaking etc took place in Africa BEFORE migrations to Europe. Yes they did expand in scale in temperate Europe's easier environment, but that expansion itself debunks assertions of the woefully "harsh" European environment, which, far from being a vale of tears, was actually favorable in many respects.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br />
3) The much cherished claim that "Cro-magnons are us" is repeated ad infinitum in books and popular media as blond cavemen and cave-women skitter across a "harsh" landscape, but as credible scientists show, it is laughable folklore. If anything, some of the ancient Paleolithic "Caucasoid ancestors" looked like today's tropical Africans- i.e. blacks. Pause.. roll ominous musics.. See:<br /><i>(Brace et al 2006. The questionable contribution of the Neolithic and the Bronze Age to European craniofacial form. PNAS 103 (1) 242-247)</i>.<br />
<br />
4) Modern DNA studies (Jablonski 2010, 2012, 2000, et al for example <i>Living Color, Skin :A Natural History</i> etc) show that European white skin is a rather recent development, only some 6000-19000 years old, depending on the area examined. This means most of the "revolutionary Caucasoid developments" were in reality, "developed" by folk that would be called "black" these days.<br />
<br />
5) Recent studies of ancient DNA confirms the skeletal data. Many of the early European ancestors looked African, both in cold climates and warmer European zones. Interestingly some DNA studies of ancient southern Europe find people there with the African version of the gene determining skin color. Southern Europe is relatively close to Africa just across the Mediterranean, and was actually much in advance of northern Europe as far as development of elaborate civilizations and cultures, contrary to propaganda about the "superiority" of cold-climate northern folk. Interesting that the European zone with the most African genetic material turns out to be the most advanced in ancient times..<br />QUOTE: <i>"The biggest surprise was to discover that this individual [LaBrana European] possessed African versions in the genes that determine the light pigmentation of the current Europeans, which indicates that he had dark skin," Lalueza-Fox said... But the latest findings show that La Brana 1 still had dark skin and had been around the continent for 40,000 years, meaning fair skin probably evolved millennia later.”</i> –Scientists on ancient Mesolithic European “LaBrana Man”<br />

cold-adapted Europeans, whether viewed as Neanderthal humanoids or as more recent tribes had more than enough opportunity to pioneer plant and
animal domestication. Wild species of the cow, horse, pig and goat were all
well known. Wild ancestors of important crops- such as wheat-like spelt
variants, and chick peas were also in place. What then took the alleged
cold-adapted "pace-setters" so long to advance human civilization? Even the horse, though it may have been earlier hunted for meat, sacrificed in religious rituals, or herded like semi-wild reindeer, only clocks in at a late date of circa 2000-2500 BCE as a useful animal of domestication harnessed to human transport, warfare etc. This is about when credible genetic data shows the measurable changes in form, size and vaiability associated with domestication as seen in horse remains found at the site of Csepel-Haros in Hungary, a settlement of the Bell Beaker culture.

<b>The notion of "advanced Ice Age genes"- </b>pushed by self-identified racislists like Professor Michael Levin (1997- Why Race Matters) or JP Rushton (1995) , or Richard Lynn (1987), and sympathetic others like Charles Murray, can also be tested via DNA data, as James Flynn does in his book Are We Getting Smarter Yet (2012). Flynn demonstrates that people from one of the highest IQ sub-populations, that of Singapore, originated from the TROPICAL SOUTH, not the allegedly more virtuous and advanced cold climate North. <b>Quote</b>:<br />

<span style="color: red;">"Eppig, Fincher, and Thornhill (2010) asked what factor most parsimoniously accounted for these differences. When they controlled for temperature, distance from Africa, gross domestic product per capita, and education, multiple regression analysis showed parasitic stress was the most powerful predictor of national IQ by a large margin. The correlations are preceded by a minus because there was a negative correlation between untreated parasitic conditions and mean IQ. The correlation was -0.82 for both the set of 113 nations and the set of 192. They also found correlations of similar size within the world’s six major geographic regions with the exception, oddly, of South America.."<br /><br />"Lynn (1987) and Rushton (1995) posit that extreme cold creates a more challenging environment, one that maximizes selection for genes for intelligence. During the Ice Ages, the ancestors of East Asians are supposed to have been north of the Himalayas where the cold was most intense, the ancestors of whites north of the Alps where the cold was next worst, and the ancestors of blacks still in Africa where it was relatively warm. Therefore, we have a racial hierarchy of better genes for intelligence running from East Asians to whites to blacks..<br /><br />.. all of the recent data show that there is a genetic divide between north and south (Cavalli-Sforza, 1997, was the pioneer). The incidence of southern or non-Ice-Age genes increases as you go from north China toward the south, with the greatest concentration found in Guandong Province (Chen et al., 2009). Therefore, mean IQ should decline as we go along this vector. We have no IQ data from China itself that allows us to compare the south to the north. But we have a wonderful substitute: the DNA of the Chinese of Singapore shows that they are overwhelmingly from Guandong (the province in which non-Ice-Age genes are most dominant). Those who came to Singapore from Guandong were not a random sample. But if they were elite, they were only mildly so (Ee, 1961). <br /><br />Therefore, the IQs of Singapore Chinese should be below mainland China. Lynn and Vanhanen (2006) put Singapore at top of the world with a mean IQ of 108. If one isolates the 74 percent of Singapore’s people that are Chinese, their mean rises to 114. Mainland China gets only 105. If these values hold, we can forget about the Ice Ages [theory] The role of IQ is to diagnose potential for cognitively complex cultural achievement. Either other factors can do the job (and modest IQ differences between nations are not that important) or the genes that would later generate IQ advantages were once adequately represented in the south."</span><br />

Furthermore, allegedly more "backward" tropical locales actually produced some of the most advanced and spectacular civilization in human history. Southern or Upper Egypt for example, a large part of which falls within the tropical zone, is the area from whence the dynastic civilization arose, not the colder climate north with its allegedly more "challenging" environment. Said rise of civilization most credible scholars of Egypt (See Bard 2005, Kemp 2006, Yurco 1989, Teeter 2011 for example) show was an INDIGENOUS development, that did not need "wandering Caucasoids" from elsewhere to provide guidance or inspiration. In fact, while Egypt always maintained trade and contact with the Mesopotamia, some skeletal limb proportion studies of northern Egypt show the typical tropical heat-adapted patterns of the African peoples further south (Kemp 2006, Smith 2002) - in essence, a tropical people- rather than the "cognitively challenged" cold climate types racialist theories or lore would have us to believe.<br />

<b>Summary and bottom line- the tropical civilizations of Africa also debunk numerous right-wing claims</b><br />
<br />
As shown above, various high IQ populations in Asia derive from the southern tropical regions, undermining standard right-wing propaganda memes about "backward" tropical evolution, including "time urgency" and such, don't hold much water when examined critically. Even more devastating for such racialist claims is the development of advanced civilizations in the tropical or near tropical zones, PRECEDING development in allegedly more "advanced" cold climate zones. Ancient Egypt which includes both the tropical zone and sub-tropical zone illustrates this (What? You didn't think that Egypt was in Africa? Or is partly tropical? LOL). It could be argued that various civilizations in Europe were not all cold climate but also benefited from sub-tropical conditions, such as in the Mediterranean. This is true, but nobody denies the Mediterranean civilizations are European, whereas the right wing or Arabist propaganda double standard is to deny Egypt as African.<br />
<br />
But such propaganda fails under critical scrutiny. The genesis of Egyptian civilization is in the darker tropical and subtropical south, not the colder climate venues of the Mediterranean, or the Levant. As shown by credible scholars, the following summary points re applicable.

<b>5) European/Asiatic cold climate or light skin inspiration was unneeded by the tropically adapted Africans of ancient Egypt. </b>They peopled the Nile Valley from the Sahara and the Sudan, and ancient Egypt is part of a tropical African lineage. Indigenous development sprang from a long tradition going back deep into the Sahara and the Sudan.<br />
(Lovell, 1999; Lefkowitz, 1993, 1996; Keita 1993, Irish 2006)<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>6) DNA studies </b>show the Egyptians link with other Africans via Haplogroup "E" to a much greater extent than cold climate Mediterraneans, Europeans or Middle easterners.<br />
(Keita 2004, 2008; Richards 2003; Battaglia, 2008; Cruciani 2007; Lucotte 2003; Stevanovitch et al 2004)<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>7) African people have a range of physical variation and don't need any inspiration or mixes from cold-climate/light skinned Europeans or Asiatics to explain why. </b>Features like narrow noses, thin lips, height etc are all indigenous to Africa. Africa has both the highest phenotypic diversity and the highest genetic diversity in the world and don’t need cold-climate/light skin inspiration for that established fact. All cold-climate/light skinned Europeans and Asiatics are SUBSETS of original African diversity. Modern DNA studies find even though some African peoples look different, they are genetically related through the PN2 transition clade of the Y-chromosome. Thus light-skinned African Libyans and dark-skinned Zulus are all genetically related Africans, even though they don't look exactly the same.<br />
(Keita 2004; Tishkoff 2002, Ely et al, 2006, Stevanovitch 2004)<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>8) African peoples are the most diverse in the world </b>whether analyzed by DNA or skeletal or cranial methods. The peoples of the Nile Valley vary but they are still related. The people most related ethnically to the ancient Egyptians are other Africans like Nubians not cold-climate/light skinned Europeans or Asiatics.<br />
(Keita 1996; Rethelford, 2001; Bianchi 2004, Yurco 1989; Godde 2009)<br />
<br />
<i><span style="color: red;">More backward tropical developments.. </span></i><br />
<br />
<b>9) Not needing cold-climate/slight-skinned inspiration, </b>the peoples of ancient Egypt are more closely linked with fellow tropical Africans in terms of cranial studies than with Europeans or Asiatics. Analysis of skeletal and cranial remains reveals that the ancient Egyptians of the early Dynastic and pre-Dynastic phases, link closer to nearby Saharan, Sudanic and East African populations than Mediterranean and Middle Eastern peoples. Greeks, Romans, Hyskos, Arabs and others were to appear later in Egyptian history. Craniometric studies generally place ancient Upper Egyptian populations closer to the range of tropical Africans in the Nile Valley and East Africa than to Mediterraneans, or Middle Easterners.<br />
(Keita 1990, 1993, 1996, 2004; Hiernaux 1975; Froment 2002; Kemp 2005)<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>10) Comparatively recent (in evolutionary terms) Europeans and Asiatics LOOKED LIKE tropical Africans with dark skin and other features, </b>before cold-climate adaptation changed them. Light skin color is a RECENT development for Europeans and Asiatics. The foundations of civilization in terms of key animal and plant domesticates, and associated technology in Europe and Asia were thus laid by these dark-skinned migrants from Africa, who resembled today's Africans, undermining claims of the efficacy of "whiteness" in laying the basic foundations or in building advanced civilizations such as that built by the tropically adapted peoples of the Nile Valley.<br />

Part 1 of our Sowell trilogy reviewed the book "<a href="http://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2017/07/sowell-liberal-intellectuals-and-hard.html" target="_blank">Intellectuals and Race</a>". This piece reviews Thomas Sowell's recent book - Wealth, Poverty and Politics: An International Perspective, and holds that:<br />
<br />
-- Sowell adds little new to the subject but instead recycles old material<br />
-- Attempts to add contemporary relevance such as incorporating some David Landes 1998 fall short<br />
-- Sowell continues his cherry-picking approach, often ignoring or ducking contrary data and analysis<br />
-- Focused on old material , but if an opportunity to bash "the liberals" arises, he is quickly contemporary<br />
--Use of marginal or extreme statements by people with little credibility to set up strawmen to "refute"<br />
<div>
--Pose as an objective empiricist but in reality sometimes presents slanted, one-sided views<br />
-- Some good detail and insights are included on the role of geography- ironically debunking "geneticism"<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>Previous instances of recycling. </b>Now let's get down to bidniss. Like an aging musician reissuing pieces of his back catalog for the fan base, Thomas Sowell pulls another recycling job in his book Wealth, Poverty and Politics: An International Perspective, 2015. He did it previously with his 2011 tome called Intellectuals and Society where he basically deals with old news- the Stalin era, the Hitler era, "appeasement" by Chamberlain and so on. He has very little on what's happening now, in the contemporary era, circa the mid or late 2000s. And it is interesting what Sowell avoids in that book. His chapter on intelligence in that book for example deals mostly with stuff prior to, or around WW2, and somewhat into the early 1970, Carl Bingham circa the 1920s, along with Darwin, Galton, European immigrants to the US in the early 1900s, HL Mencken's eugenic and anti-black rantings, etc. But all this is quite dated. Mencken's racist rants for example are from 1937. <br />
<br />
This is rather old news. What's happening NOW circa the 2000s? Who's making similar arguments NOW, in the contemporary era? Sowell avoids saying, and that is understandable. To discuss the "black inferiority" theme writings of the present day - folk like JP Ruston, Linda Gottfredson, Richard Lynn , Tatu VanHaven, Dinesh Dsouza, etc, would expose people who are fellow travelers, or fellow recipients of cash from right-wing, sometimes racist sources like the Pioneer Fund. Such contemporary right-wing types have a well funded network of think-tanks, conferences, books and Internet forums and websites, energetically propagating their particular party line- some quite influential like <a href="http://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2013/06/coming-apart-can-murrays-down-with.html" target="_blank">Charles Murray</a>, and <a href="http://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2016/05/straining-credibility-dinesh-dsouza-has.html" target="_blank">Dinesh D'souza</a>. But Sowell maintains a convenient "politic silence" on what his contemporary right wing buddies are writing, despite a book claiming to examine the wide impact, including the damaging impact of "intellectuals on society." Sowell though, is quick to bash "liberals," but when it comes to examining such work by his right wing fellow travelers, he is a convenient no-show.<br />

<b>Old news, yet again - Sowell's analysis of wealth and poverty internationally recycles old material but has little to say about key contemporary issues re wealth and poverty internationally</b><br />
<br />
And the same pattern continues with this book. Basically it retreads arguments from his previous books, throws in a few "new" references from David Landes' <i>The Wealth and Poverty of Nations</i> -1998, (a dated reference [over 20 years old] in terms of analysis of new developments in the economic development field), and a few others, and repackages the whole claiming an "International Perspective." <span style="color: red;">Use of dated general references is a common pattern in Sowell's work</span> as seen in more detail below and it shows in the virtual absence of any credible or substantial discussion on aid flows, structural adjustment, financing etc. As a result, most of the book has little to say about a contemporary international perspective on issues of wealth and poverty. Yes it is nice to read about German immigrants who were efficient farmers in both 19th century US and Brazil, or Italian immigrant stone-working skills in the 1800s and early 1900s in the US and Argentina. And yes, we are regaled about gentlemen in the Tudor era preferring professions to messy trade (effete weaklings not robust free-marketers!) and so on. But much of this is old news he covered way back in the early 1980s in his books: Ethnic America (1981) and The Economics and Politics of Race (1983). There is relatively little new, or contemporary, save when opportunity arises to bash "the liberals."<br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">Sowell <i>tries</i> to add contemporary relevance by pulling in a few references from David Landes (1998) to discuss wealth and poverty of nations, but they are rather too little, too late. </span>As is typical with his cherry-picking approach, he often fails to discuss important factors that influence wealth and poverty internationally, including international trade, terms of that trade, the outsourcing of American manufacturing capacity to cheaper Third World locations, the impact of the global financial system and so on. The book has few references to key issues of international trade for example, nor does it discuss the international financial bodies that influence wealth and poverty in the Third World, such as the IMF, and its "stabilization" demands imposed on underdeveloped nations. Nor does he deal significantly with the whole morass of international debt, including the negative manipulation of Third World economies by bankers and other Western financial or institutional players. Even David Landes in his book discusses the predatory manipulation of the more powerful West (in the form of the US) to exploit Latin America and create dependency. But Sowell not only skips such key matters, but has little new as to analysis, or case studies, or data to bring to the table. Instead we get half a page of factoids- such as suicide rates of Chinese immigrants in Peru and Cuba circa the 1800s, but we can't even get much ink on CONTEMPORARY issues like Third World Debt or tariff regimes (pro or con), and how such things affects wealth and poverty.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #990000;">
It could be argued that Sowell is focusing on various individual ethnic groups as he has done in previous work like 1981's "Ethnic America." OK, but even here there is little significant analysis of the contemporary era. </span>Where for example is the detail on contemporary Asian immigrants, many having substantial levels of educational attainment, <a href="https://www.insidehighered.com/news/2015/08/04/authors-discuss-reasoning-behind-high-levels-asian-american-achievement" target="_blank">BEFORE</a> coming to the US, much more than the peasant farmers of the 19th century? Where is the detail on African immigrants, some of whom (not all- some are refugees from Africa's many conflicts or environmental crises) bring substantial levels of education with them prior to arrival? It is true that Sowell does mention that in England, some children of low income African immigrants outperform native whites, in some schools, but how does this square with other data where the children of other like immigrants lag behind native whites? And how does it square with some African immigrants in general bringing substantial educational levels prior to arrival in the UK or the US? Sowell does manage to work in sneering references to "the welfare state ideology" to explain the lag of the low income whites and US ghetto blacks, but predictably, has no credible data on alleged "welfare" effects to put on the table. Would this mentality for example explain why whites derive a <b><span style="color: red;"><a href="https://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2015/06/despite-much-more-wealth-than-blacks.html" target="_blank">greater level of welfare benefits</a></span></b> than blacks despite much greater wealth and income? Nope.. Sowell sneers then quickly moves on.<br />

<b>Meandering multi-cultists</b><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b><br /></b><span style="color: red;">Some of Sowell's claims are just plain shaky strawmen he sets up to "refute." </span>For example he says- quote: </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<i>"Multiculturalists today decry any recognition that some peoples have superior achievements or inferior achievements at a given time and place, though it is blatantly clear that Greeks were far more advanced than Britons in ancient times and Britons were more advanced than Greeks in the nineteenth century."</i> </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">But predictably, he can give no credible specific example of these dastardly "multiculturalist" methods." What serious multicultural author or school textbook for example goes about "denying" that ancient Greece was on several counts more advanced than ancient Britain? Key multicultural texts and writers do no such thing. They do note however that dichotomies such as "primitive" versus "civilized", or the automatic assumption that a Western source is better than a non-Western one, or automatic genuflections to the imperial "grandeur that was Rome" are simplistic and distorted ways of understanding the complexity of history, economics and human culture. They also advocate a more balanced recognition of the accomplishments of other peoples rather than the glorified stereotypes. Greek science and architecture for example owes several debts to Egyptian and Middle Eastern influences depending on time and place. The "glory that was Greece" did not spring out of a vacuum, as any credible contemporary historical text shows. Are there things that can be criticized by some multi-culturalists? Certainly, but lets deal with the issues honestly not present a one-sided view. </div>
<br />
<span style="color: red;">Sowell along these lines also skips over the CONSERVATIVE or right wing version of multiculturalism, including the distorted textbooks</span> on into the 1970s denigrating and distorting the history and culture of minorities, and presenting a sanitized picture of white goodness, particularly in the South. Hence the Daughters of the Confederacy conservative activist group for decades dominated how the US Civil War would be presented-. You see, it did not much to do with slavery, but rather "state's rights." But this is laughably circular. Exactly what was the key "states right" at issue? - slavery. But in Sowell's world, apparently only "the liberals" offend in such matters of distortion.<br />

<b>Cherry picking for good lickin' - the case of 'elites' and Griggs versus Duke</b><br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">One of the problems with Sowell's work is his penchant to cherry pick items that fit his particular libertarian ideological axe to grind. while ignoring or sidestepping contrary data, or analysis. The result too often seems like a libertarian propaganda exercise, and a dated one at that</span>. In other words, his is not always a balanced analysis. As already noted above analytical coverage and depth on key issues on wealth and poverty is weak, despite factoids and anecdotes here and there. When he attempts a detailed discussion on a contemporary issue some of the same weaknesses appear. For example, Sowell criticizes the landmark US Supreme Court employment discrimination case- <i>Griggs vs Duke Power</i> (1970) decision that employers must validate tests that have which have a disparate impact on minority groups when those tests are 'unrelated to measuring job capability.' Note again the dated topic- Griggs is from 1970- what's actually happening NOW circa his book 2015 on issues of employment discrimination? Have any other significant court cases or executive or legislative actions occurred since 1970? And how exactly does Griggs tie into "wealth and poverty"? We never find out. </div><div><br /></div><div>Sowell grinds one of his favorite ideological axes- spinning Griggs as yet another imposition of "distant third parties" or and/or "elites" against sensible job performance rules. But this is cherry-picking while hiding or distorting the full context. <i>Griggs vs Duke </i>came into court in the first place, not because of "elites" "interfering" with the good people, but because the Duke Power Company, had discriminated against blacks for years, freezing them out of significant opportunities and promotions, no matter how qualified. This was quite beneficial to whites. Sowell of course does not mention how whites benefited. <br />
<br />
Nor does he mention that it was soon after the landmark 1954 Brown vs Board decision, that Duke Co. suddenly implemented "new" educational requirements to move up for promotion even though some of these new impositions bore no direct relation to job performance. White workers for example were hired on and promoted prior, WITHOUT having to get a diploma. And when the new rules went into effect, Whites, who were already on the job, and already had enjoyed decades of "reserved," white only higher slots, were grand-fathered in, and did not have to meet the "new requirements." Black employees looking to move out of the old Jim Crow slots however, had to meet the "needed" "new" requirements. The impact of the new, seemingly "race neutral" rules was to freeze the existing system of white benefit and advantage in place, since many blacks, who might have been capable of particular jobs without needing any new layers of "requirements", now found themselves STILL frozen out of better slots and opportunities, for many did not meet allegedly "needed" "new" educational requirements. They were routed to the back of the line again, despite whatever the Supreme Court might say.<br />
<br />
In short, whites, already benefiting from decades of preferential treatment, were ushered or locked into the higher slots and opportunities- they had little to worry about- their privilege and profit were preserved. The detailed study by <span style="color: blue;">Robert Samuel Smith (2008) Race, Labor, and Civil Rights: Griggs Versus Duke Power and the Struggle for Civil Rights</span> lays out many issues. As Smith notes-Quote: <i><span style="color: red;">"White employees were hired into higher classifications without high school educations prior to the company instituting its high school policy in 1955. Workers in the Labor, Watchman and Coal handling Departments continued to be hired without the high school requirement, but only white worker received promotions before the [Civil Rights] Act." </span></i><br />

<br />
Courts examined hundreds of documents in detail and took testimony from witnesses, including the testimony of black workers directly affected by years of discrimination. It is not the picture of "elite" third parties handing down rulings from on high without knowing anything about what was happening on the ground. Even lower courts that ruled against the black plaintiffs, acknowledged the past discrimination and the present "white lock-in" results, but held that absent an EXPLICIT or OPEN racial policy or barrier as in the past, Duke Power's new seemingly "race neural" rules were allowable. Sowell does not criticize or dismiss these lower court rulings in favor of the corporate defendant. Nor does he criticize similar appeals court rulings, though it should be noted that the Griggs appeal panel did find discrimination against blacks. Before it went to the Supreme Court, a 3-panel appeal court reversed the lower court ruling in part- holding that while there was little explicit discriminatory intent Duke, residual discrimination arising from employment practices prior to Title 7 was NOT insulated from remedial action. And the appeals court did find that black employees prior to the 1955 new rules were victims of discrimination.<br />
<br />
The appeals court, interestingly showed some of the company's manipulations such as "promotion" of black janitors. that still locked them down in the traditionally "colored" Labor Department. Interestingly again, it was only after the lawsuit that Griggs somehow "found" some black workers with diplomas to hire. Before the lawsuit few such workers were apparently not in existence, and Duke, again, only after the lawsuit, mysteriously, suddenly stopped restricting Negroes to the Labor Department. But of course Sowell skips over all this. It is when Sowell comes up against a ruling he doesn't like, namely the unanimous Supreme Court decision, that he insinuates the specter, as he does in several of his previous books, of "elites" dictating policy without knowing the true situation. Here again Sowell's <i>"cherry pick only what data I like"</i> approach reveals itself.<br />
<br />
Interestingly the Supreme Court that delivered this ruling was one appointed by right wing president Richard Nixon, under his conservative chief Justice, Warren Burger. Also of note, appeals <b>Judge Simon Sobeloff</b>, while concurring with the finding granting the old-line black employees relief, dissented from the majority ruling arguing, that the manipulations by Duke company were part of a cunning covert pattern seen in other cases- Quote: "<i><span style="color: red;">The pattern of racial discrimination in employment parallels that which we have witnessed in other areas. Overt bias, when prohibited, has oftimes been supplanted by more cunning devices designed to impart the appearance of neutrality but to operate with the same invidious effect as before."</span></i> (cited in Smith 2008) Such grim reality on the ground is apparently beyond the conception of Thomas Sowell, himself a "distant third party" observer.<br />

But is this blinding insight and truism anything new? What serious analysts "ignore" that say, people in urban areas, for example, generally make higher wages than people in rural areas? Yes people vary for different causes, but that does not mean racial discrimination is absent, nor does it mean that claimants to racial discrimination have no burden of proof on their shoulders- far from it. <br /><span style="color: #2b00fe;"><b>Strikingly missing from Sowell's analysis is any discussion of CONTEMPORARY discrimination against blacks</b></span>. Again, what is the state of things NOW circa the book 2015, something that can be readily ascertained by looking at any recent college text on employment discrimination? Contemporary data or policy on the issue? It is as if such a thing barely exists, and the only problem is "liberals" stirring up trouble by filing disparity claims. But as we have seen in previous blog posts, contemporary discrimination is very much<span style="color: red;"> <b><a href="http://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2017/07/racial-discrimination-is-alive-and.html " target="_blank">alive and well</a></b></span>. And contemporary studies Such as Pager and Shepard 2008 (<i><a href="https://scholar.harvard.edu/files/pager/files/annualreview_discrimination.pdf" target="_blank">The sociology of discrimination- Racial discrimination in employment, housing, credit, consumer markets.</a></i>) illustrate this in detail, whether by careful statistical analysis, "tester" audits of employers or landlords, or studies of EEOC claims and court cases. </div>

<b>Another standard line of Sowell across many books is to poo-poo the effects of Civil Rights Laws by using a simplistic macro, national level comparison -such as income before laws, (in certain years) versus income after (in certain years). </b>But this is too broad brush. Civil Rights Laws had most of their impact where discrimination was worse- that is, the South. Sowell, who so often comes up with the most obscure factoids (such as suicide rates of Chinese in 1800s Cuba), carefully avoids even a basic regional comparison. Data by credible scholars in fact does show that in the South, the coming of the Civil Rights Era measurably improved black employment, income, and other crucial life variables like health. <span style="color: red;">"Heckman and Payner (1989) use microdata from textile plants in South Carolina to study the effects of race on employment between 1940 and 1980, concluding that federal antidiscrimination policy resulted in a significant improvement in black economic status between 1965 and 1975." </span>Likewise detailed CONTEMPORARY data such as Gavin Wright's Sharing the Prize (2013) illustrate the same point of significant black gains under after Civil Rights Laws both North and South, not only for things like employment, but in educational attainment, occupational status and even health. The forcing open of southern hospitals (through threat of withholding federal funds) for example was a boon to black health . See Gavin Wright's- <a href="https://historynewsnetwork.org/article/156565" target="_blank">Sharing the Prize</a> for more detail. </div>
<div>
<br />
In addition, detailed analyses do show that the Civil Rights Movement era saw significant increases in black job growth and occupational status, North and South As one scholarly study by Harvard Economics Professor Richard Freeman shows-QUOTE:<br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">"(1) Relative demand for and income of black workers were raised in the postwar period by governmental and private antidiscrimination activity following the 1964 Civil Rights Act and possibly by a general societal decline in individual and market purchases of discrimination relative to levels of productivity.<br /><br />(2) The black occupational distribution improved greatly in the 1960s as a result of the significant supply response of black workers to economic opportunities, as well as of the increased relative educational attainment of the black population. Black workers shifted occupations rapidly in response to reduced discrimination and improved opportunities.<br /><br />(3) Black women advanced more rapidly relative to their white counter-parts than black men in part because declines in discrimination have greater effects on job markets, such as those for women, where on-the-job training and cumulated experience are less important and where gross turnover of the work force is rapid. Such markets allow older as well as younger workers to take advantage of new opportunities, and, moreover, they are the special province of women..."</span><br />
<br />
and<br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">".. the federal law extends to the South, accounts for one-half of black employment and exhibits the greatest differences between black and white incomes. One indication of the extent of the federal effort in the South is the fact that two-thirds of employer-union-agency cases before the EEOC in 1970 originated there, with Texas, Florida, and Louisiana having the largest number of charges investigated."
</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: blue;">The reader should note the large gains in the South, where Civil Rights had more impact- something Sowell conveniently skips discussing in multiple books. The data also shows a significant, measurable impact of Civil Rights Activity in the first 7-9 years after the CRA of 1964. QUOTE:</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">"The most important finding of Table 6 is that the post-1964 period did, in fact, witness an exceptional increase in black incomes, unaccounted for by previous trends, cyclical boom, or increased black educational attainment, and linked to civil rights activity. In regressions (1) and (4), the EEOC measure has a sizable significant coefficient, which implies that anti-discriminatory activity was responsible for increases in the black-white income ratio, from 1965 to 1971, of 15 percent for males and 27 percent for females, or 9 and 16 percentage points, respectively, from levels of about 60 percent in the early sixties."</span><br />

<br />
It is difficult to say whether Affirmative Action head-count QUOTA plans in the 1970s (such as in higher Education -the Bakke Case 1978 for example) had as much impact as the opening up of equal opportunities under the CRA. AA head count Quotas and Civil Rights Equal Opportunities, while related (such as in courts requiring discriminating employers to finally start promoting women or blacks) are not the same. Claiming quotas to be 'essential' for black advance 3 decades after 1964 is a shaky exercise, especially given rising black educational attainment, and economic changes. But whatever the complex mix of factors, the data debunks some of Sowell's persistent attempts, and more directly, attempts by such right-wing public intellectuals as Dinesh Dsouza or Charles Murray, to poo-poo or dismiss civil rights as a significant factor in black gains in the 1960s.<br />

<br /><br />
<span style="color: red;">Claims of stagnant black progress debunked.</span> In his 2002's biography, Sowell, still continuing his pattern of trying to downplay the Civil Rights Act asserts:<br />
<br />
<span style="color: blue;"><i>"Additional blacks entered professional and other high-level positions in the five years following passage of the Civil Rights Act—but these additions were fewer than in the five years preceding passage of the Act. " </i></span>--Sowell, A Personal Odyssey p 268-269<br />
<br />
It is interesting that Sowell gives no supporting evidence to back this statement. But hard empirical data by other scholars shows the claim to be shaky. As scholars Devey and Stainback note:<br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">"Even more striking is the rapid increase in white women’s access to managerial jobs after 1971. White women move from being underrepresented in managerial jobs by 70 percent to being underrepresented by only 12 percent at the turn of the century. While they have not yet reached parity, white women have made remarkable and consistent gains. Black males also have made gains in private sector managerial employment, although their advances are not as dramatic or consistent. Black males were barely represented among managers in this EEOC reporting sample in 1966, being underrepresented by 90 percent relative to their employment in the sector. They made sustained improvements through 1983, although they were still substantially underrepresented at –54 percent of their general labor market employment. No further progress was made through the 1980s, but progress began again across the 1990s."</span><br />
<br />

<br />
The astute reader will notice that the biggest beneficiary from the Civil Rights Act is white women, but that the blacks, though still substantially underrepresented, did make measurable progress better than before the Act, for the managerial level jobs, debunking Sowell's claim. It is interesting that Sowell chooses a quick (and simplistic) "5 years before-5 years" after comparison so as to obfuscate the longer term upward trend. Other scholars noted below also show the same pattern of black gains after the Civil Rights Act. The Act did not "cause" ALL the gain- no one piece of legislation can claim that- but it did help the large pool of qualified blacks (from professionals to blue collar workers) who had been frozen out of the market before the Act. This pool of people is somewhat analogous to black baseball players before Jackie Robinson's era- more than qualified, and in some cases better qualified than whites, and/or more competitive,, but still locked out of the game by white racism and protectionism, despite a lot of hypocritical talk about "merit" and "free markets."<br />

<i>Apparently these thugs are "representative" of black folk or "liberals"..</i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<b>Ah those evil liberals, but let's skip scrutiny of libertarians and right wing conservatives </b><br />
<br />
Sowell is often occupied recycling old material, but he quickly becomes contemporary when its time to bash "the liberals." If the opportunity arises for a bit of liberal bashing, for sins real or imagined, Sowell in on the case like white on rice, but has little to say about his right wing ilk. He even throws in the standard bogeyman standbys- Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton and Twana Brawley (from 20 years ago- notice again the dated pattern) as examples of evil liberalism in the present day. Such things play well with Sowell's libertarian and right wing "base."<br />
<br />
<b>The Negro menace: </b>Sowell also works in a few incidents of "black wilding" or something called "the knockout game," played apparently by mostly black teens, involving approaching an unsuspecting victim and punching them out. Apparently such vile (and idiotic) activity is only newsworthy when said negroes knock out a few Jews- and Sowell insinuates that liberal "apologists" condoned some attacks out of misguided concern for "troubled youth." Exactly who the liberal "apologists" are he does not say. Surely the standard bogeyman Al Sharpton would be among the liberal villains, but turns out that Al Sharpton issued a strong condemnation of the youth gangs carrying out the "knockout" attacks, but this of course is not mentioned by Sowell. Various incidents are ginned up into a sinister conspiratorial pattern of black evil against white people by Sowell and the right wing authors he cites, such as Michael Flatherty. But how does Sowell, a "distant third party" himself, know the right wing narrative is true?<br />
<br />
Philadelphia mayor Michael Nutter in a 2012 news conference considered the "knockouts" to be simple assaults not any "racial trend." Likewise NY City Police Commissioner Ray Kelly declined to identify any sort of "racial conspiracy" or trend, debunking the claims of Sowell and his supporting authors. Other observers question whether a number of reported assaults were part of any "negro knockout" "trend" as opposed to the vicious excesses of a few criminal gangs who happen to be black. Jeffrey Butts, who specializes in youth criminal justice at John Jay College, says there's no real pattern to the way the attackers choose their victims, but they are always alone, and they stand out. "The victims are someone who the young people consider to be an 'other,'" Butts explained. <i>"That could be a racial difference, it could be a religious difference, it could be an age difference, it just could be a class difference."</i><br />
http://www.cbsnews.com/news/deadly-knockout-game-what-it-is/<br />
<br />
And in some incidents, there was no "negro menace" to white people per se. The teen perps in one Philadelphia incident for example were white. In several other "knockout" videos, the victim and attacker are both black. And contrary to right wing claims about "the media" supposedly "ignoring" things, the attacks got wide media coverage, particularly when the victims were elderly white Jews and the perps were black. The racial angle was picked up right away and Al Sharpton weighed in with strong statements condemning said attacks, which rapidly declined after a brief flurry of activity. See: (<i>"Knockout Games-The Biggest Form of Cowardice; Rev. Al Sharpton". Huffingtonpost.com. 2013-11-25. Retrieved 2013-12-08</i>)<br />
<br />
The <a href="http://www.cbsnews.com/news/deadly-knockout-game-what-it-is/" target="_blank">CBS story on "knockouts" </a>debunks the right wing narrative about "the media" not covering such stories. CBS Video clips clearly show young negroes knocking out whites. <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XCIaFHj-D68" target="_blank">CNN picked up the story </a>and gave it a fair amount of play- even interviewing boxer Mike Tyson who condemned the attacks. So where was this story being "ignored" by "the media"? What right wingers seem to be really bothered about is that local media generally refuses to gin up various incidents into some sort of sinister anti-white "wave" of violence by blacks. These are the same conservatives who decry "playing the race card" but do not hesitate to deploy it when <i>they</i> find it convenient.<br />
<br />
<b>Menace from the laggards but not the advantaged: </b>Sowell tries to "spin" the "negro knockout artists" into a narrative about how "more advanced groups" are likely to suffer violence from "lagging" or "backward" groups- like the Russian peasant pogroms of old against "more advanced peoples" like Jews in Eastern Europe. But this is dubious. The pogroms of Eastern Europe and elsewhere by so-called "lagging" groups, involved mobs of hundreds or thousands attacking a relatively small minority, sometimes with the connivance, indifference or even active participation of the legal authorities. Where is there anything similar among blacks in America? Are the swarms of black folk in NYC rushing out to Coney Island, Brighton Beach or Sheepshead Bay.to attack "advanced" Jews, with the police ignoring the violence? And in the United States most "race riots" have been by supposedly "advanced" groups (white) attacking "lagging" groups (Blacks, Latinos and Asian) including over 3,000 lynchings of blacks. But of course you will hear very little about this from Sowell in his "group comparisons." See <span style="color: blue;">http://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-crime-knockout-idUSBRE9AP11Z20131126</span><br />
<br />
Predictably, Sowell has nothing to say about attacks by white racists against blacks-several are documented every year in the US. Nor does Sowell have much to say about police abuses against blacks (as witnessed by the multi-million dollar <a href="http://ourweekly.com/news/2013/oct/16/l-city-council-pay-out-23-million-lapd-excessive-f/" target="_blank">payouts</a> cities keep making to cover or settle misconduct cases by their mostly white officers). <span style="color: red;">[<a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/chicago-police-settlement-misconduct-210-million_us_5787f6a6e4b03fc3ee500a88">http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/chicago-police-settlement-misconduct-210-million_us_5787f6a6e4b03fc3ee500a88</a></span>], or the continued abuse of <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/investigations/holder-ends-seized-asset-sharing-process-that-split-billions-with-local-state-police/2015/01/16/0e7ca058-99d4-11e4-bcfb-059ec7a93ddc_story.html?utm_term=.c30a24e02599" target="_blank">civil forfeiture</a> policies and laws- just ask the <a href="http://my.chicagotribune.com/#section/-1/article/p2p-45482890/" target="_blank">black motorists having their property seized</a> without being charged with any crime.<span style="color: red;"> </span>Where is the great libertarian Sowell, who has much to say about government abuses elsewhere, on such? This omission is telling, for police abuses are an integral part of the story behind the black ghetto riots of the 1960s and beyond, not only "hooliganism", as any credible history shows. Pointing this out does not mean one does not support police or is "against law and order." But Sowell's selective omission on this score shows he is too often prone to parroting right wing propaganda, rather than objectively examining the issues at hand. These examples are detailed but they illustrate a pattern- not that of an author analyzing the issues in a balanced or even comprehensive way but of someone cherry-picking various items, and ignoring data to the contrary, so as to grind a particular ideological axe.<br />

<b>Side note: Some statistics show whites MORE likely to be carrying weapons and contraband than blacks, but its blacks arrested and profiled more. </b><br />
Strangely, data from both NY and Minnesota show blacks having <span style="color: red;">LESS weapons or contraband on them than whites</span> when stopped by police, yet the blacks are targeted MORE and have force used against them to a greater extent.<br />

<br />
And here's data direct from City of Minneapolis. The blacks were stopped almost 3 times as much as whites, and in addition, many of the blacks were stopped in higher crime hoods. Yet with the deck stacked in every way against the negro, it turns out that the whites stopped were carrying MORE contraband than Blacks or Latinos.<br />

<b>Irony: some of the data in the book debunks certain right-wing claims</b><br />
<br />
In fairness, it should be noted that some of the book's detail debunks standard right wing claims about "genetic" explanations for "lagging" groups, as well as right wing "environmental" explanations, such as the supposed efficacy of cold climates for promoting and fostering advanced civilization. For example various right wing proponents are able to offer few credible explanations as to why most of the foundational advanced civilizations sprang up not in supposedly benevolent cold climates, but in hot or warm tropical or sub-tropical climates, from Ancient Egypt, to Mesopotamia, even to sub-tropical southern Europe. Why did the allegedly more virtuous cold climate northern or Eastern Europeans "lag" behind historically?<br />
<br />
As regards the tropics and sub-tropics, Egypt or Kemet for example is partially in the tropical belt, and its dynastic civilization was foundationally laid by Africans from within and to the south of the Sahara as virtually every credible scholar or specialist in the field affirms (Morkot 2005, Lovell 1999, Raxter and Ruff 2008, Smith 2002, Kemp 2005, etc etc. ad infinitum) Look dear reader- CONTEMPORARY scholarly references! Curiously, the supposed master of empirical data Thomas Sowell has little to say on this matter that directly bears on what some of his various right-wing allies are pushing.
Still for what its worth, the book debunks a number of overblown and hypocritical "HBD" or "hereditarianism" claims on this score. Several details were given on the white Irish in previous posts for example, showing that would be northern European pacesetters were <span style="color: red;"><a href="http://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2009/11/hbd-debunked-debunking-hypocritical.html" target="_blank">unimpressive "role models"</a> </span>of anything, but Sowell adds rural whites or "hillbillies" to the list of examples. He also shows that exceptionalist claims of sole northern genius, somehow divorced from the massive borrowing and copying from non-European cultures over history are quite dubious.<br />

<b><span style="font-size: large;">Bottom line:</span></b><br />
<br />
While here is good detail on things like geography and the characteristics of immigrant groups and their rise from poverty - this is a rehash basically of some of his earlier work like the 1990s book "Geography and Culture," or even 1983's "Economics and Politics of Race." This is very little substantive coverage of contemporary factors involved in wealth and poverty. Much of the anecdotes, such as the "Negro knockout artists" will play well with "the base" of right wingers and libertarians, (old ghetto riots by US negroes anybody?), but they seem irrelevant to the many core topics (like contemporary debt regimes, and trade for example) that need coverage, and there is little new for the discriminating reader. Looking at the lack of contemporary substance, one cannot help but get the impression that Sowell is "playing" his base by re-releases of old material. Some of this is understandable. In his 80s now, with little up to date research done for over a decade, Sowell comes across as a canny curmudgeon, squeezing out a last coupla paydays, from "the base."<br />

<br />
This post reviews Thomas Sowell's book: "<a href="https://www.amazon.com/Intellectuals-Race-Thomas-Sowell/dp/0465058728" target="_blank">Intellectuals and Race</a>." Many conservatives have hailed it- and on Amazon it maintains a robust 4 to 4.5 rating among the faithful. But many positive reviews are thick on uncritical applause, and thin on detail, and it is in many ways, a disappointing read: full of old examples, avoidance of much of contemporary debates in the area, and curiously, omits work Sowell himself has done on "Race and intellectuals" when it involves possible criticism of right-wing intellectuals and friends like conservative intellectual Charles Murray. It also, again quite curiously, avoids mention of how CONTEMPORARY RIGHT-WING INTELLECTUALS use and manipulate race, and interesting omission for a book that purports to analyze "intellectuals and race." The work of one of the most prominent, JP Rushton for example, articulates a number of propositions widely accepted by right wing intellectuals- such as that "altruism" and "law abidingness" brain size, etc prove that differences between the "races" reflect an "ordering" of the races from lower to higher. This is no mere isolated set of arguments- they are articles of faith among many on the right. Richard Herrnstein and Charles Murray brush off Rushton's critics, writing, "Rushton's work is not that of a crackpot or a bigot" (The Bell Curve- pg 642) . As we shall see below, Thomas "Studied Silence" Sowell, seems anxious in this book to avoid critically examining many of such propositions put forward by his libertarian, conservative or "hereditarian" brethren, including those that disparage blacks like himself. This pattern of avoidance involves:<br />
<br />
--A focus on old news and examples rather than contemporary data<br />
--Avoidance of discussing many contemporary right wing intellectuals views on race<br />
--A focus on bashing "the liberals" and their sins but maintaining studied silence on right wing scholars<br />
--Avoidance of discussion on the "cosmic solutions" on race that prominent right wing intellectuals endorse<br />
--Omission of Sowell's own critical work where it would substantially call right wing claims into question<br />

<span style="color: red;"><i>The curiously missing members of the right-wing intelligentsia..</i></span></div>
<br />
<br />
<b>Let's bash "the liberals" but Sowell's discussion of numerous right-wing intellectuals on race is curiously missing. </b><br />
<b><br /></b> As far as right wing intellectuals for example he mostly stops any detailed analysis after about 1940, save for a few exceptions as we shall see. In Chapter 3, we read about Madison Grant, Robert Stoddard, and the racist remarks of H.L. Menecken for example but then Sowell suddenly stops when it comes to any significant analysis of CONTEMPORARY right-wing intellectuals. The exception is Charles Murray, but even when discussing the Bell Curve, Sowell spends some 5 pages talking about critics of Murray and their liberalism while omitting any serious analysis of the weaknesses in Murray's work. More on this below. Sowell does discuss Arthur Jensen, a dean of IQ and race studies, whose seminal 1969 work, established a post 1960s narrative leaning towards genetic determinism. Sowell tries several times to soften Jensen's determinism, citing various qualifying statements made by Jensen. This is not unreasonable, but he likewise skips over statements by Jensen on the opposite end of the pole.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: purple;">To his credit, Sowell does mention the research of James Flynn, </span>and his "<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flynn_effect" target="_blank">Flynn Effect</a>" and how IQ scores have been rising for years, not only among US blacks who have scores above "100-normal" if calibrated for 1950s scoring norms, but internationally across many nations and cultures as well. This [progress has been concealed by "test norming." This is solid stuff at last, not 2 pages of fluff about "black thugs" (see below). He also notes that Flynn pointed to possible negative influences of US black subculture in depressing IQ scores, since the children of black fathers reared in Germany post higher IQ scores than similar children in the US race environment. Sowell's observations on certain negative aspects of some urban black culture seems borne out by IQ patterns which in very young black children are not that much different from whites, but by high school, the blacks have slipped well behind Asians and Whites. Sowell also does mention over-achievement relative to IQ as with Asians with the same or lower IQ scores, and his discussion does cast doubt on geneticist claims. But its rather muted info. He is careful to spend more time bashing "the liberals" while going easy on right-wing geneticist colleagues. Notice that its Professor Jensen's "alternative genetic explanation" below versus "multiculturalist doctrine" below. Apparently Jensen and right-wing intellectuals like Rushton, Lynn, Micahel Levin or Gottfredson, or Dsouza do not have any "doctrine" to criticize. Quote:<br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">"The importance of other factors besides IQ is not a blank check for downplaying or disregarding mental test scores when making employment, college admissions or other decisions. Although empirical evidence shows that Chinese Americans and Japanese Americans tend to perform better in educational institutions than whites with the same mental test scores as themselves, other empirical evidence shows that blacks tend to perform below the level of those whites with the same test scores as themselves.18 Clearly, then, with blacks as with Chinese and Japanese Americans, other factors besides IQs have a significant influence on actual educational outcomes, even though these other factors operate in a different direction for different groups.."</span><br />
<span style="color: red;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: red;">""Professor Jensen offers an alternative, genetic explanation for this pattern, but a similar pattern was also found among low-IQ European immigrant groups in studies in 1916 to 1920, and among white American children in isolated mountain communities studied in 1930 and 1940,70 so it is not a racial peculiarity in a genetic sense. Professor Flynn’s explanation of this same pattern is consistent with the data cited by Klineberg. But these data are completely inconsistent with the prevailing multiculturalists’ doctrine that all cultures are equal. Flynn’s cultural explanation of black-white differences in IQ is also consistent with the otherwise puzzling anomaly that the mental test scores of white soldiers from various Southern states during the First World War were lower than the mental test scores of black soldiers from various Northern states at that time."</span><br />

<br />
<b><span style="color: blue;">Black IQ gains over time</span></b>. Flynn cannot be said to be in the right-wing camp of scholars like Murray, Rushton or Lynn, and Sowell does skip over one of the notable findings of Flynn- that Black Americans have gained some 4 to 6 IQ points relative to non-Hispanic whites between 1972 and 2002 on 4 major tests of cognitive ability. Dickens and Flynn (2006) make no claim that their finding covers all tests, and other instruments do not show as large a gain (2-3 points versus 4 to 6.) Nevertheless, depending on the test taken, gains small and large, relative to whites are real, and the range of years showing improvement covers the evils of the welfare state as well as the "evil" affirmative action years. Yet within this period, the gains were registered. Per Dickens and Flynn- QUOTE:<br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">"It is often asserted that blacks have made no IQ gains on whites, despite relative environmental gains, and that this adds credibility to the case that the black/white IQ gap has genetic origins. Until recently, there have been no adequate data to measure black IQ trends. We analyze data from nine standardization samples for four major tests of cognitive ability. These suggest that blacks have gained 5 or 6 IQ points on non-Hispanic whites between 1972 and 2002. Gains have been fairly uniform across the entire range of black cognitive ability."</span><br />

<br />
<b><span style="color: blue;">Black academic gains over time.</span> </b>Another narrative among the right wing faithful is of total failure of social policies- and blacks being worse off, having made no gains under dastardly "liberal" policies. But this theme too is debunked by hard data. One grand illustration of the "total fail" narrative was the ominous "A Nation At Risk" report put out under the Reagan regime, which portrayed all as almost lost in education. But some of the gloom and doom was overblown propaganda, and sleight of hand. For example invidious comparisons were made to high SAT scores prior to the mid 1960s, compared to later decline, but the golden age of high scores was when a limited number of relatively affluent college potentials took the test. Later years saw a large expansion of more test takers who were much more diverse. Of course this larger pool would not be as well positioned as the relative elites before them. The "total fail" narrative also conveniently glossed over positive indices such as rising graduation rates and top performances by US students internationally. Even more devastating, a more objective study by the neutral Sandia Labs some years later, (1990) found IMPROVEMENT in school performances over the years measured when all this alarming "decline" was supposed to be taking place, a study quickly downplayed and shelved by the post Reagan Republican regime then in power.<br />
<br />
Much was, and has been made of the low "rock bottom" NAEP ("nation's report card") reading scores in 1992, when there was a 26 point achievement gap between black and white students. Some doom proponents quickly ginned up the failure narrative, but also glossed over the fact that this outcome had come to fruition under 8 years of the Reagan regime and 4 years of Bush I, a 12 year stretch PRIOR to the dastardly "liberals" of the Clinton era taking over in 1992. By 2015 the 26% had been cut to 19%, hardly a spectacular gain, but still a gain, calling into question the alleged efficacy of Reaganism, or assorted "Bell Curve" claims that predicted continued gloom where resources spent would produce nothing but "failure." And long term NAEP trends show 9 and 13 year olds scoring higher in math and reading than they did in the mid-1980s "Reagan revolution." See <a href="https://www.npr.org/sections/ed/2018/04/29/604986823/what-a-nation-at-risk-got-wrong-and-right-about-u-s-schools" target="_blank">link</a>- (<i>https://www.npr.org/sections/ed/2018/04/29/604986823/what-a-nation-at-risk-got-wrong-and-right-about-u-s-schools</i>). Combine this progress with the clear gains of blacks in IQ, reducing the "gap" to 10 points per Flynn (2006) mentioned above, and the data on hand debunks several "hereditarian" and right-wing assertions. <br />
<br />
One ironic note. The dark alarm sounded over the nation's failing education system, also put a spike in the Reagan regime's plans to abolish the Department of Education. (Glen Seaborg- A Nation at Risk Revisited- http://www2.lbl.gov/Publications/Seaborg/risk.htm)<br />

<b><span style="color: blue;">Asian advantages up to one-standard deviation.</span></b> Such gains are in keeping with steadily rising IQs demonstrated by the "Flynn Effect." Even Rushton and Jensen (2005- <i>Thirty Years of research on race differences in cognitive ability</i>) found East Asians to hold a 6 point IQ advantage over whites (106 versus 100), with the strongest Asian performances on more abstract elements such as math. Where Asians are not hampered by a language barrier in comparison to whites such as in math, the East Asian advantage is on the magnitude of one standard deviation or more greater than whites. Per one study (Nisbett 2009):<br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">".. math achievement of the Asian students was leagues beyond that of the U.S. students. The identical problems were given to Japanese, Taiwanese, and American children. By the fifth grade, Taiwanese children scored almost 1 SD better in mathematics than American children, and the Japanese scored 1.30 SDs better than American children..."</span><br />
<span style="color: red;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: blue;"><b>And this pattern of one-standard deviation repeats itself for US based East Asians in some studies- Quote:</b></span><span style="color: red;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="color: red;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: red;">"By the time they were in high school, the Chinese Americans were scoring one-third of a standard deviation higher than European Americans on achievement tests. At a given IQ level, the Chinese Americans performed one-half of a standard deviation higher on typical achievement tests, compared with European Americans. The overachievement was particularly great on mathematics tests. In tests of calculus and analytic geometry, the Chinese Americans surpassed European Americans by a full standard deviation.</span><br />

<br />
<span style="color: blue;">Asians post performances one standard deviation ahead of whites in things like math, but Asians can also concede whites several points in IQ overall to start, yet still outmatch them in university admissions and occupational status, as data from as early as the 1960s shows. PEr Flynn 2012:</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">".. young people whose parents had come from East Asia made a powerful impression on the public imagination. They were about 2% of the population, but 14% of those at Harvard, 16% at Stanford, 20% at MIT, 21% at Cal Tech, 25% at Berkeley (Flynn, 1991a). When journalists approached Arthur Jensen for an explanation, he said they did so well because they are smarter (Brand, 1987). Anyone who dines at a Chinese restaurant and sees a child sleeping over his school books wake up, stretch, and pick up a book knows that something other than intelligence causes the academic achievements of Chinese-Americans. Flynn (1991a) analyzed the class that graduated from high school in 1966. During their senior year, the Coleman Report confirmed that they had no higher IQs than their white counterparts. However, they could concede whites 4.5 IQ points and match them on the SAT, and concede them almost 7 IQ points and match them for high-school grades. This meant that they could secure entry to the same universities as whites despite lower IQs. In the fall of 1966, Chinese entering Berkeley had an IQ threshold 7 points below whites... When Chinese tell other Chinese that their child has failed, the first question is, a fail or a Chinese fail'? The latter usually means they did not top the class."</span><br />

The gains above are worth noting, but Sowell has relatively little to say about them re blacks. But aside from such, also missing are numerous CONTEMPORARY right-wing intellectuals on race, such as J.P Ruston, (whose books have received supportive praise by the leading conservative publication National Review), Linda Gottfredson, Richard Lynn or Tatu VanHaven. These persons are scholars with advanced credentials. Indeed over 50 scholarly intellectuals such as Professor Linda Gottfredson signed a well publicized Manifesto in the 1990s, (drafted by Gottfredson and published in the prestigious Wall Street Journal) defending the methods of the Bell Curve book. <span style="color: blue;">Thomas Sowell somehow can't find room to mention many of these leading right-wing intellectuals, dealing directly with his topic, yet he does manage to find room to mention the finances of Jesse Jackson.</span> He also conveniently skips over lesser qualified, but quite prominent popular right-wing public intellectuals such as Dinesh Dsouza who has written prominently on race as in his own specific book on race- "The End of Racism." These are significant figures on the right-wing side of the racial intellectual spectrum. Dsouza for example (before his conviction for fraud) had well selling books out and a prominent media presence), yet Sowell ducks discussing them- a very curious skip in a book supposedly about "intellectuals and race." He has plenty to say about "the liberals" though- and their would be errors and fallacies on race, and their connection to various "politically correct" organizations, movements or institutions.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: blue;">Such selectivity certainly serves an ideological function for Sowell.</span> It avoids exposing the fallacies and errors on the other side of the intellectual fence- that is among right wingers. And while the liberals and their PC institutions are freely mentioned, such selectivity avoids the similar connections of the right-wingers to a well financed network of conservative or racialist think-tanks, journals, books, conferences, and Internet forums and websites- all energetically propagating a rightward racialist or even racist party-line. Sowell maintains a convenient "politic silence" on what his contemporary right wing buddies are writing, despite a book claiming to examine the wide impact, including the damaging impact of intellectuals on society.<br />

<span style="color: blue;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: blue;">Some popular contemporary right wing intellectuals want to roll back the Civil Rights Act of 1964- Sowell remains silent.</span> Much touted right-wing intellectual Dinesh Dsouza for example, in his 1996 book "The End of Racism" calls for a rollback of numerous protections of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Quote: <i><span style="color: red;">"Am I calling for a repeal of the Civil Rights Act of 1964? Actually, yes. The law should be changed so that its nondiscrimination provisions apply only to government."</span></i> (Dsouza, 1996. The End of Racism, p 544). Of course, given the close linkages of private parties and government in discrimination against blacksDsouza's "call" is laughable<br />
<br />
<span style="color: blue;">Other top mainstream conservative intellectuals like William F. Buckley are <a href="http://fair.org/extra/william-f-buckley-rest-in-praise/" target="_blank">on record</a> as opposing the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Voting Rights Act of 1965, and the Fair Housingmeasure of 1968. Buckley is on record as supporting white supremacy and black inferiority. Somehow, Thomas Sowell, who springs into action if its something "liberal" to bash, is silent.</span> "In a 1957 editorial, <a href="http://www.fair.org/index.php?page=3406">“Why the South Must Prevail”</a> (8/24/57), <b>NR</b> founder William F. Buckley cited the “cultural superiority of white
over Negro” in explaining why whites were <span style="color: red;">“entitled to take such
measures as are necessary to prevail, politically and culturally, in
areas where [they do] not predominate numerically.” </span>OK well hey, segregation was OK, denial of voting rights was OK, and South African versions with their oppressive rule by a white minority was OK as well. White people were right to implement such oppressive systems. Buckley voiced little objection to the fact that whites were already doing so in areas where they were the <b>majority</b> (which was most of the south as blacks moved north in the immediate decades after WW2), but in those local situations where they were a minority, the apartheid system was OK too with Buckley. This is consistent, for Buckley also supported the apartheid regime of the white minority in South Africa on similar grounds. Quote:<br />
<br />
<i><span style="color: red;">"The sobering answer is Yes—the White community is so entitled because for the time being, it is the advanced race.” </span></i>Buckley cited unfounded statistics demonstrating the superiority of white over black, and concluded that, <i><span style="color: red;">“it is more important for any community, anywhere in the world, to affirm and live by civilized standards, than to bow to the demands of the numerical majority.” He added definitively: “the claims of civilization supersede those of universal suffrage.”</span></i><br />
<br />
Appearing on <b>NPR</b>‘s <b>Fresh Air</b> in 1989 (rebroadcast 2/28/08), he stood by the passage. “Well, I think
that’s absolutely correct,” Buckley told host Terry Gross when she read
it back to him." (<i>http://fair.org/extra/william-f-buckley-rest-in-praise/). </i>Buckely is an important public intellectual in his own right, though dedicated to conservatism. Yet, like JP Rushton, he does not even rate a mention in Sowell's book, supposedly about "intellectuals and race." As detailed above, the reasons are not hard to fathom.. Given the clear racialism of many right-wing intellectuals, and the weaknesses in their various claims, it is not surprising that Sowell hops and skips around to avoid putting the whole record on the table.<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<i><span style="color: red;">handicaps say some well known and cited right-wing intellectuals.</span>.</i></div>
<br />
<span style="color: blue;">Some contemporary right-wing intellectuals seriously distort African history and culture and intellect- Sowell, the master of data analysis, remains silent.</span> For example, in their 2002 book, IQ and the Wealth of Nations, conservative scholars Richard Lynn and Tatu Vanhanen, advance a farrago of distortion including chastising Africans for "failing" to domesticate species such as the African Cape buffalo, one of the hugest, fiercest ungulates in the world- (it should be noted that in Asia, similar fierce species have not been domesticated either). People opted for milder tempered cattle. But only Africans are condemned as "backward" with seemingly "low mental capacities" for the eminently sensible choice of avoiding large unpredictable, dangerous beasts that are apt to attack nearby humans. <br />
<br />
Lynn and Vanhanen show a penchant for making remarkable claims off a flawed dataset and methodology. The estimate "national IQ" of several countries for example by simply using the scores of nearby nations- analogous to say taking New York IQ scores and using them to "represent" Canada. Sample sizes are small and unrepresentative in many cases. As one credible reviewer puts it:<br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">"Of the 185 countries in the sample, ‘direct evidence’ of the ‘national IQ’ is available for only 81.. National IQs for 101 countries are simply estimated from ‘most appropriate neighbouring countries’, that is, the ‘known IQs’ (sic) of their ‘racial groups’ (p 72). But, even for most of the others, ‘direct evidence’ is putting it strongly, as even a cursory glance at the motley tests, dates, ages, unrepresentative samples, estimates, and corrections show. A test of 108 9–15-year olds in Barbados, of 50 13–16-year olds in Colombia, of 104 5– 17-year olds in Ecuador, of 129 6–12-year olds in Egypt, of 48 10–14-year olds in Equatorial Guinea, and so on, and so on, all taken as measures of ‘national IQ’... Their scheme is to take the British Ravens IQ in 1979 as 100, and simply add or subtract 2 or 3 to the scores from other countries for each decade that the relevant date of test departs from that year. The assumptions of size, linearity and universal applicability of this correction across all countries are, of course, hugely questionable if not breathtaking. </span><br />
<span style="color: red;"><br /> Flynn’s original results were from only 14 (recently extended to twenty) industrialised nations, and even those gains varied substantially with test and country and were not linear. For example99, recent studies report increases of eight points per decade among Danes; six points per decade in Spain; and 26 points over 14 years in Kenya (confirming the expectation that newly developing countries would show more rapid gains). It is obvious that larger or smaller corrections over larger or smaller numbers of years can transform relative scores and rank orders, especially if the gains are nonlinear. With the measures of GDP, L&V admit that estimates may be ‘highly unreliable for developing countries’ (p 83), excluding up to 50% of the workforce, with often huge differences between males and females, and thus often ‘not strictly comparable across regions’ (p 83). This whole empirical license becomes absurd when the correlation between ‘IQ’ and GDP is extended back to 1820, nearly a century before the IQ test was invented (yes, we just get more ’estimates’)."</span><br />

<br />
<br />
It should be noted that Lynn and Vanhanen are not <a href="http://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2015/08/blacks-oppose-free-speech-ramshackle.html" target="_blank">random bloggers</a> off the web, but highly educated degreed professionals, and professors at established universities. Theirs is a serious scholarly attempt to prove that that the great variation presently observed in the per capita wealth of the nations of the world can be explained largely as the effect of the differences in inherited mental capacity existing between prosperous and impoverished countries, capacities that are demonstrated in certain racial groups. If anything should call out for serious analysis in a book on "Intellectuals and Race" this book should, for Lynn and Vanhanen are widely cited and recognized for their "racial" work. Other conservative authors it should be noted have directly taken on the Lynn/Vanhanen claims and <a href="http://www.theamericanconservative.com/articles/race-iq-and-wealth/" target="_blank">debunked them thoroughly</a>. But curiously, Thomas Sowell is a no-show in this book, and does not even mention them in his copious footnotes, which find space for such marginal topics as Jesse Jackson's finances. <br />
<span style="color: red;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: blue;">Again the pattern of selective cherry-picking and avoidance of anything that might significantly clash with other right wing scholars reveals itself. We will see this pattern repeated below on discussions of Charles Murray</span>. Lynn and Vanhanen's work fits in quite well with the similar "IQ Supreme" arguments of right-wing and libertarian types, including Charles Murray. If anything is tailor-made for examination of "Intellectuals and Race" it is Lynn and Vanhaven's sweeping thesis and detailed statistics. Indeed some of their statistics are shaky- including the use of very small samples and "guessestimates" to make sweeping conclusions about African peoples. If "the liberals" showed such weaknesses, Sowell is on it, like white on rice. But where is Thomas Sowell when it comes to substantially examining such work by his right wing fellow travelers? He is a missing in action.<br />
<br />

<b>Woe to ye liberal oppressors and multiculturalists</b><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
In Chapter 4, Sowell discusses how intellectuals have ginned up race cards to oppress various minorities. His examples are fair- such as anti-Semitism in Europe, anti-Tamil agitation and violence in Sri Lanka, the expulsion of Asians in Uganda, and sandbagging of Chinese in Malaya. In these cases the more efficient or advanced "middleman minorities" were indeed oppressed, and Sowell is quick to point out that this oppression was the product of left-wing or "liberal"/left-influenced elements of those societies, such as those influenced by socialism. These are valid points. But again, Sowell curiously has little to say about RIGHT-WING INTELLECTUALS and how they have ginned up race agitation to oppress minorities. Jews have been massive victims of right-wing intellectuals, but it is not only "advanced peoples" who have suffered. Right-wing intellectuals in the United States and South Africa have also ginned up massive brews of racism against groups like blacks. Such right-wing activities receive curiously little attention in a book that supposedly deals with Intellectuals and Race.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b><span style="color: blue;">Negro crime.</span> </b>In Chapter 7- "Race and Cosmic Justice" Sowell slams liberal intellectuals for attempting to deliver "justice" to overturn circumstances caused by a wide variety of neutral factors and group behaviors. In short he argues, "the liberals" ignore real world differences between races, holding for example that all cultures are equally valid, and ominously- quote: "<i>leaving nothing but an agenda of resentment-building and crusades on the side of the angels against the forces of evil.</i>" This is certainly true as to SOME "PC" venues- like some college campuses. But is it true that "liberals" consider all cultures to be equal and that they ignore "real world differences?" In fact a large number of complaints from American non-white or Third World activists cite exactly the opposite- charging that their cultures are seen as "backward" by liberals who seek to impose their agendas and solutions on indigenous or local peoples. Hence some American black activists have long criticized some local educational systems (run by liberals), on the topic of black education, and some Third World activists likewise decry tariff and "structural adjustment" regimes imposed by the liberal UN and "global governance" types. And speaking of "<i>leaving nothing but an agenda of resentment-building and crusades on the side of the angels against the forces of evil.."</i> this sounds pretty much like the strategy various right-wingers have used for years on the issue of race. Resentment? Crusades on the side of the angels? Oh no.. conservatives would never do such things would they? .. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Sowell next launches into a discussion of race and crime, where he cites racist author Colin Flatherty on black youths attacking whites as if this were the sum total of the "race and crime" universe, and opines that liberal "celebration of cultural differences" is part of the reason for such crimes or "condoning" of them. But such sophistry only illustrates Sowell's shaky strawman approach. No credible black legislator or civil rights leader "celebrated" or "condoned" the black on white attacks, nor attempted to "justify" them in the name of "diversity." As regards various "knockout" attacks carried out by black youths for example, people like the infamous Al Sharpton, the classic bogeyman himself, actually vigorously CONDEMNED them, but such is not mentioned by Sowell in his cherry-picked illustrations of "the liberals" and how they are "condoning" black crime. See: (<i>"Knockout Games-The Biggest Form of Cowardice; by Rev. Al Sharpton". Huffingtonpost.com. 2013-11-25. Retrieved 2013-12-08</i>)</div>
<br />
<span style="color: blue;">Sowell then jumps to slavery </span>and speaks extensively that black slavery was not the only type of slavery, slavery is an old phenomenon, and so on. Indeed, but all this is rather obvious. It it really news that there were slaves in the white Roman empire? And who is "denying" that blacks polities in Africa sold numerous blacks to Europeans to be slaves on Western Hemisphere plantations? Oh, and the word "slave" is derived from the Eastern European "slav." This is really fresh news. And then, suddenly the chapter ends. Sowell has little more to say. But if he were really examining race and justice, he would deal with such key issues as the unequal sentences and prosecutions meted out to black defendants compared to whites, for the same crimes, as detailed in numerous studies, and in books such as Michele Alexander's The New Jim Crow. Such topics are tailor made for a critique and analysis. But in a chapter supposedly dealing with "race and justice" Thomas Sowell is again, strangely (and conveniently) silent.<br />

Another solution Sowell ducks addressing in his "race and crime chapter is the right wing strategy of harsh, heavy-handed policing of black communities. The fallout from such policies is/was predictable including disparate and biased arrests, prosecutions, sentencing and imprisonment. As Professor James Vitale puts it:</div>

<span style="color: blue;">"Wilson, following Banfield, believed strongly that there were profound limits on what government could do to help the poor... Since the root of the problem was either an essentially moral and cultural failure or a lack of external controls to regulate inherently destructive human urges, the solution had to take the form of punitive social control mechanisms to restore order and neighborhood stability. Wilson's views were informed by a borderline racism that emerged as a mix of biological and cultural explanations for the "inferiority" of poor blacks. Wilson co-authored the book Crime and Human Nature with Richard Herrnstein, which argued that there were important biological determinants of criminality... </span></div>

<span style="color: blue;">"First, conservative criminologist John Dilulio, along with broken-windows theory author James Q. Wilson, argued in 1995 that the United States would soon experience a wave of youth crime driven by the crack trade, high rates of single-parent families, and a series of racially coded concerns about declining values and public morality.4 He predicted that by 2010 there would be an additional 270,000 of these youthful predators on the streets, leading to a massive increase in violent crime. He described these young people as hardened criminals: "radically impulsive, brutally remorseless elementary school youngsters who pack guns instead of lunches," and "have absolutely no respect for human life."5 Dilulio and his colleagues argued that there was nothing to be done but to exclude such children from settings where they could harm others and, ultimately, to incarcerate them for as long as possible. Dilulio's ideas were based on spurious evidence and ideologically motivated assumptions that turned out to be totally inaccurate. Every year since, juvenile crime in and out of schools in the US has declined."</span></div>

Police searches, arrests, prosecutions and imprisonments for drug activity falls mostly on blacks and Latinos who are less than 25% of all drug users (Wise 2008- Between Barack and a hard place) And on some drug counts, whites receive LESSER sentences involving use of powdered cocaine than black crack users or dealers. In fact, overall, it turns out that as far as blacks are concerned, they receive LONGER sentences than whites for the same crimes, with jail time in some cases 60% longer. And prosecutors are about twice as likely to impose mandatory minimums on black defendants as on white defendants.

It should also be noted that while right-wing advocates claim credit for crime reductions due to harsh "windows" policing methods, <b>crime was already falling BEFORE such methods were implemented</b> in key test bed NYC, as the cohort of people most likely to commit crimes fell (young persons between 18 and 30). Indeed <b>crime was falling under the predecessor to Rudy Guillaini,</b> Mayor David Dinkins's "Safe Streets" community policing initiative put thousands of new officers on the streets during his tenure. Right wing darling Guillani emerged to take credit for an already ongoing trend See: (<i>Bernard E. Harcourt, 2001. Illusion of Order The False Promise of Broken Windows Policing</i>). </div>

<b>Some statistics show whites MORE likely to be carrying weapons and contraband than blacks, but its blacks arrested and profiled more. Sowell remains silent. </b><br />
Strangely, data from both NY and Minnesota show blacks having LESS weapons or contraband on them than whites when stopped by police, yet they are targeted more and have force used against them to a greater extent.<br />

And here's data direct from City of Minneapolis. The blacks were stopped almost 3 times as much as whites, and in addition, many of the blacks were stopped in higher crime hoods. Yet with the deck stacked in every way against the negro, it turns out that the whites stopped were carrying MORE contraband than Blacks or Latinos.<br />

<b>'Final" or "cosmic" solutions to the Race problem- Curious silence on the solutions of right-wing intellectuals.</b></div>
<br />
<br />
<span style="color: blue;"><b>Brave New World: </b>Strangely missing- the "cosmic" right-wing solution of massive government cutbacks in social programs, including elimination of Medicaid, Unemployment Insurance, and Worker's Compensation. </span> Interestingly, as regards "cosmic justice" Sowell does not substantially discuss right-wing intellectuals and their search for "cosmic justice." Such intellectuals for example have invoked a number of "solutions" where blacks are concerned- ranging from deportation of blacks "back to Africa", to contemporary eugenics "culling" undesirables, to the systematic disenfranchisement and denial of basic rights and opportunities available to Afro-Americans. In south Africa, the white apartheid government initiated and implemented a "cosmic" solution to the race problem that was similar in some respects to the solutions' worked out in the ghetto segregation US model: develop segregated, widely fragmented "Bantusans" on a tiny fraction of the worse land, while whites controlled or owned almost 90% of the land, including the best parts. Apartheid regime organs cranked out detailed intellectual justifications for this "separate development" policy. <div><br />
In the United States, Richard Herrenstein and Charles Murray worked out their own "cosmic solution" to the race problem. Since IQ was such a strong predictor of life outcomes,why bother with all the social programs in place to help the poor, particularly poor blacks? Part of the cosmic solution package for these excessively dependent low IQ people would therefore involve the "tough love" advocated in earlier books such as "Losing Ground." The solution would involve - quote:<span style="color: red;"> "completely scrapping the entire federal welfare and income-support structure for working aged persons, including AFDC, Medicaid, Food Stamps, Unemployment Insurance, Worker's Compensaion, subsidized housing, disability insurance and the rest."</span> (Murray, Losing Ground, p 227-228). <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="color: blue;">While he later backtracked to generously posit some aid, such as food aid to hungry children</span>, or a small level of unemployment insurance, Murray's core vision remains fundamentally unchanged in The Bell Curve. It should be noted also that Arthur Jensen regarded compensatory social programs as useless, given what he sees as fixed racial genetic capabilities. But curiously, Sowell has nothing to say about such right-wing "cosmic solutions" even though- they were put in place partially during the 1980s era Reagan cutback regime. In other words, they are/were actual policies in action, not mere intellectual "thought experiments." Since the bulk of the pain by the right wing "solutions" would be felt by blacks, the "solution" obviously has racial implications.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="color: blue;"><b>Roll back government- heaven forbid if minorities benefit from some government spending.</b></span> The envisioned cutbacks of Murray and others is mirrored in attacks on government spending that might benefit some black folk. Assorted "dog whistle" campaigns have been active in this area for years. Oh those "parasitical" Negroes working for government, for example. But if white people are getting the benefit - hey, that's OK. In his book "The End of Racism" Dinesh Dsouza continues the party line. He condemns high levels of black employment in government as "parasitical", saying nary a word about high levels among whites, like white southerners, or groups like the white Irish, who fed and feed extensively from the government trough, and indeed used their control of municipal governments to discriminate against other groups. Indeed, as late as the early WW2 era, fully ONE-THIRD of the white Irish were working for government. As historians Bayor and Meager- 1996 show- quote:</div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<span style="color: red;">"As a consequence, the public sector employed a full one-third of first, second and third-generation Irish Americans in 1930 compared with just 6 percent in 1900. This patronage helped produce a heavy concentration of Irish in jobs on the fire and police departments and in municipally owned subways, streetcars, waterworks and port facilities. Many of the city's Irish middle class worked on the public payroll, especially in the public schools, and thousands of others labored in construction jobs tied to city expenditures. For second-generation Irish-American women, jobs as schoolteachers were the most sought-after career. Such patronage policies would help to bind the Irish working class and much of the middle class Tammany Hall for another generation."</span> --Bayor and Meagher 1996. The New York Irish, p. 313</blockquote>
Compare one-third against the comparable black rate of 12.8%:<br />

As noted above by researchers, the ONE-THIRD white Irish rate, mostly state and municipal/local jobs, is almost THREE TIMES the contemporary state/local rate of black public sector employment (12.8%), but against whom is scorn directed by right wing public intellectuals like D'souza? Yes of course, the bleks. Looks like white people are doing pretty well as far as government checks. But only blacks are dismissively singled out by D'souza on this score. Predictably, he also does not mention the high levels of government employment in his own native India, nor the high levels of government employment among white women, like his ex-wife Dixie. It is only blacks who are targeted as the "parasites" never whites, and certainly not white women like his wife. And what about all those Republican-voting white southerners feeding nicely on government dime- including military bases and fulsome spending government social programs? Not much to say- convenient silence. Indeed in states where white are the majority, things like <a href="http://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2015/06/despite-much-more-wealth-than-blacks.html" target="_blank">welfare benefits are higher</a> than in states where blacks are the majority- even though white people are overall, substantially richer than blacks. But while fulminations flow aplenty "agin" the negroes getting piece of the government action, there is a mysteriously muted response when white people are the main beneficiaries.<br />

<span style="color: blue;">Various right-wing/libertarian "cosmic solutions" draw heavily on the research cited by Bell Curve authors Murray and Herrenstein, projects generously funded by the racialist, right-wing eugenics advocating Pioneer Fund, of which several key right-wing intellectuals have received money- such as Linda Gottfredson</span>, <span style="color: blue;">a </span><span style="color: red;"><a href="http://www.the-scientist.com/?articles.view/articleNo/12397/title/U--Delaware-Reaches-Accord-On-Race-Studies/" target="_blank">Pioneer Fund grant recipient </a>
.</span> J.P. Rushton too, has benefited handsomely from the Pioneer Fund which funded the research and distribution of 35,000 unsolicited copies of his book Race, Evolution and Behavior: A Life History Perspective to psychologists, sociologists, and anthropologists in Canada and the United States. A 2nd edition of the book (also abridged) was sent out, again unsolicited, to scholars in 2000." The Fund was set up in 1937 by Wickliffe Draper, a millionaire who advocated sending blacks back to Africa. The foundation's charter set forth the group's missions as "racial betterment" and aid for people "deemed to be descended primarily from white persons who settled in the original 13 states prior to the adoption of the Constitution of the United States." The charter was slightly toned down in 1985 in reaction to critical scrutiny but its controllers have never renounced its fundamental objectives completely. The racial basis of the "cut off spending on them" solutions is obvious, despite proponents attempt to veil it, and it has hearty endorsement by two of the leading right-wing intellectuals, Charles Murray and Richard Herrenstein, and even Arthur Jensen. Yet Sowell, while quick to condemn "the liberals," is curiously silent on such matters. </div>

<span style="color: blue;"><b>One key final solution of right-wing intellectuals- roll back or water down the Civil Rights Act of 1964, and other key civil rights measures in voting and housing.</b> </span>Finally as noted above, one cosmic solution advanced by right-wingers and libertarians is to roll back the Civil Rights Act of 1964, applying it only to governments, as if such limiting will not have a damaging effect on African-Americans, and as if the benefits of "free market competition" will hold down abuses. Such arguments are laughable for anti-discrimination legislation has to tackle private bias as well, given the close intertwining of private and public parties in discrimination against Afro-Americans. This intertwining included as host of things, such as private restaurants refusing to serve blacks situated in government facilities that are supposed to be non-discriminatory, or government housing agencies collaborating with private real estate agencies in refusing to extend loans to blacks outside designated "ghetto" areas,. Such intertwining of public and private entities, demonstrated in a over century's worth of court cases, laws and executive decisions, make the notion of confining anti-discrimination measures to "public" entities an exercise in sheer nonsense.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">There was plenty of "free marketism" AND Jim Crow operating together effectively for a long time prior to the Civil Rights Act. Under this right wing cosmic solution- if for example if a bus company or airline wants to treat blacks disrespectfully and relegate black passengers to the back, or exclude them altogether, too bad! Private employer wants to exclude blacks from certain jobs? Oh well, too bad for those blacks. Real estate agent wants to steer blacks only to crumbling ghetto properties? Ha ha- so solly, black people. Stores want to take black money but don't want them to use the restrooms, or try on clothes? Hey, those negroes can go elsewhere- such as their marginal stores that are "discouraged" from operating in profitable locations! We don't care. Black kids and adults can't get decent private hospital care? Ha ha, too bad black people - just die- and they did, prior to such "evil" federal government "interference" that threatened to withhold federal funds for hospitals that practiced racial segregation. This saved numerous black lives as decent hospital care, including life-saving immunizations for children, finally began to go to black people. But libertarians and conservatives opposed such "evil" and in principle today, would simply wave away those black lives, and also, oppose government action in this area.</div>

As regards civil rights, various right wing "solutions" are in play, such as how the right-wing judges <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/news/asian-america/three-years-after-scotus-case-weakened-voting-rights-act-leaders-n599551" target="_blank">weakened the Voting rights Act here</a>. And note how right-wing regimes at the state and local levels use other dodges and manipulations to suppress minority voting <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/monkey-cage/wp/2017/02/15/do-voter-identification-laws-suppress-minority-voting-yes-we-did-the-research/" target="_blank">here</a>, such as deliberately inconvenient registration offices, and deliberately limited hours the distant registration offices are open, even as the alleged "abuses" suppression laws are designed to "fix" are mostly non-existent. Housing is discussed in other <a href="http://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2016/07/trump-properties-discriminated-against.html" target="_blank">posts</a>.Other rollbacks have occured under the right wing aegis, such as anti-discrimination enforcement in housing. <span style="color: red;">Followed to its logical conclusion, this is the callous, racially biased unfair spirit that animates people like Dzouza and his right wing ilk</span>. Left to them, America would still be partially an apartheid state.</div>

Furthermore, individual whites are voters, and have every incentive to use governmental power to impose their racial preferences on others. This has damaging spillover effects. Routing black people to the back of the bus for example (sometimes physically assaulting them in the process- Rosa Parks for example was once physically thrown off a bus by a private sector bus employee) or excluding them from restaurants ends a message that blacks are not worthy of respect, or citizenship- stoking a poisonous resentment and bitterness that still has not dissipated in America. <span style="background-color: white; color: black; display: inline; float: none; font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: left; text-decoration: none; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;"> Private real estate agents and bankers routing </span>blacks to the worse, most toxic properties means that they do not have access to decent schools, good jobs located in the suburbs,and have less chance to acquire the major source of individual wealth in contemporary America- home ownership. It also means blacks will pay higher prices for things like substandard housing, This is precisely what has happened with housing in America as scholar Richard Rothstein so eloquent documents in his book <a href="http://www.epi.org/publication/the-color-of-law-a-forgotten-history-of-how-our-government-segregated-america/" target="_blank"><span style="color: blue;"><b>The Color of Law</b></span></a> (2017). The notion that merely banning "government" from discrimination would not have any damaging spillover effect on black folk is laughable, and shows callous, mean-spirited approach among contemporary right wing intellectuals- a spirit reflected not only among openly racist right-wingers, but more polite folk who embrace libertarian theorist Ayn Rand.</div>

<span style="color: red;"><b>Claims of stagnant black progress debunked.</b></span> In 2002 Sowell, still continuing his pattern of trying to downplay the Civil Rights Act asserts:<br />
<br />
<span style="color: blue;"><i>"Additional blacks entered professional and other high-level positions in the five years following passage of the Civil Rights Act—but these additions were fewer than in the five years preceding passage of the Act. " </i></span>--Sowell, A Personal Odyssey p 268-269<br />
<br />
It is interesting that Sowell gives no supporting evidence to back this statement. But hard empirical data by other scholars shows the claim to be shaky. As scholars Devey and Stainback note:<br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">"Even more striking is the rapid increase in white women’s access to managerial jobs after 1971. White women move from being underrepresented in managerial jobs by 70 percent to being underrepresented by only 12 percent at the turn of the century. While they have not yet reached parity, white women have made remarkable and consistent gains. Black males also have made gains in private sector managerial employment, although their advances are not as dramatic or consistent. Black males were barely represented among managers in this EEOC reporting sample in 1966, being underrepresented by 90 percent relative to their employment in the sector. They made sustained improvements through 1983, although they were still substantially underrepresented at –54 percent of their general labor market employment. No further progress was made through the 1980s, but progress began again across the 1990s."</span><br />

The astute reader will notice that the biggest beneficiary from the Civil Rights Act is white women, but that the blacks, though still substantially underrepresented, did make measurable progress better than before the Act, for the managerial level jobs, debunking Sowell's claim. Other scholars noted below also show the same pattern of black gains after the Civil Rights Act. The Act did not "cause" ALL the gain- no one piece of legislation can claim that- but it did aid the large pool of qualified blacks who had been frozen out of the market before the Act. This pool of people is somewhat analogous to black baseball players before Jackie Robinson's era- more than qualified, and in some cases better qualified than whites, and/or more competitive,, but still locked out of the game by white racism and protectionism, despite a lot of hypocritical talk about "merit" and "free markets."<br />

<span style="color: blue;"><b>COURTS AND THE LAW ON RACE- A MATTER OF "ELITES" ONLY? Sowell presents an alarming picture of "courts gone wild" on race- Quote:</b></span><span style="color: red;"><br /></span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">"When an employer’s mix of
employees shows an “underrepresentation” of designated minorities (or women),
either in general or in more advanced positions, that is taken as prima facie
evidence of discrimination, whether deliberate or as a result of using criteria
with a “disparate impact” on particular groups... No speck of evidence is
required from those who implicitly assume that employee composition would be
similar to population composition, in the absence of discrimination. Moreover,
not one flesh-and-blood human being who even claims to have been discriminated
against is necessary for “disparate impact” cases to go forward in a costly
legal process. Statistics alone are sufficient to establish the “disparate
impact” case that employers must rebut." (page 197)</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: blue;">But this is disingenuous, and shows Sowell's penchant for
cherry picking anecdotes, and/or misrepresenting complex issues to fit his
particular ideological basket</span>. For one thing most disparate impact cases DO have a live body that has suffered discrimination. And who says you need a live victim to file a court case about something? Conservative right-wing types have oft filed suit against government action without there being any live "victims" such as against a new government tax or policy, aiming to stop the policy before it takes effect. What's this "shocking" live victim point supposed to be? But that brings us to the cases themselves, and the claim that "statistics alone" establish disparate impact. This is laughable.<br />
<br />
Few sane employment discrimination plaintiffs
show up in court with merely a "statistical" showing that say, blacks are
underrepresented in a particular job. As any basic book on employment law shows
or even personnel management textbook that discusses employment discrimination
in detail shows, plaintiffs definitely have to bring more than "a
speck" of proof. Plaintiffs also typically have to show such things as
whether the employer has a history of discrimination, whether the employer's
practices -such as white only "word of mouth" recruitment approaches
were appropriate, and so on. Furthermore courts considering "disparate
impact" have recognized that Plaintiffs must show a <i>sufficiently large
number of samples</i> for any statistics proffered to be significant or credible (<i>Haggard 2009-below</i>). And contrary to Sowell, almost all of these cases do have warm body plaintiffs asking for redress for suffering or unfavorable treatment. They are not merely paper cases designed to head off some sort of policy or tax..</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: blue;">Sowell footnotes the landmark Griggs versus Duke case in a
discussion of testing and job criteria but the very case he cites in his book debunks his "courts
gone wild" insinuations</span>. In Griggs versus Duke, the plaintiffs had to show
up with proof of past discrimination practices, including how blacks were
sandbagged for years into lesser skilled positions, and how "new"
test requirements grand- fathered in all the whites in their higher slots,
without them having to take any of the new tests. The Court in Griggs indeed
noted that just because a practice or policy has disparate impart on
minorities does not conclusively establish its illegality, and unintentional
discriminatory effects could be justified. Quote: <span style="color: red;">"The touchstone is
business necessity.."</span> Plaintiffs in Griggs showed up not with a
"speck" of "mere" statistics, but a virtual dump truck of
many types of proof. <br />
<br />
Furthermore in Griggs, the Court found that new, allegedly "needed" job qualifications that served to sandbag black employees, did not bear much relation to job performance. The employer in this case suddenly implemented the "new" job requirements shortly after the Civil Rights Act of 1964 passed, ensuring that black workers would not derive substantial benefit. In view of such blunt realities, "disparate impact" can be a valid way (it is not a perfect mechanism) of ferreting out illegal employer behavior. In another important case, Albermarle Paper v. Moody (1975- <i>over 30 years ago</i>), the
Supreme Court actually laid out a systematic three step process for proving
disparate impact- relevant statistics, business necessity, and sufficient
rebuttal by the Plaintiff that Defendant could use bona fide alternative
practices not having disparate impact. All this is far from the "courts gone wild" picture insinuated by Sowell. (See such basic texts for example as <i>Thomas
R. Haggard. 2009 Understanding Employment Discrimination Law</i>). <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></div>

<span style="color: blue;"><b>Sowell further insinuates race cases as peculiarly sinister to legal tradition - Quote: </b></span></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="color: red;">"Not only in the American media and popular discourse, but in academic institutions and in courts of law— all the way up to the Supreme Court of the United States— no burden of proof whatever is required for the presumption that disparate outcomes at a given institution constitute prima facie evidence of discrimination at that institution, which legally shifts the burden of proof of innocence to the accused, contrary to legal traditions in other contexts, where it is the accuser who has the burden of proof, whether in criminal or civil cases." </span>(pg 34)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
No burden of proof whatsoever? Huh? What about having credible sample sizes to make statistical claims or other items that are weighed by judges as detailed above? And is it really only where such race cases are concerned that accusers have an initially low burden of proof? Really? This is hyped drama. A relatively low prima facie
requirement is nothing unusual- such appear throughout the legal system. For
example, in patent cases, various <a href="https://books.google.com/books?id=red7CAAAQBAJ&pg=SA16-PA513&lpg=SA16-PA513&dq=%22prima+facie+case%22+%22low+bar%22&source=bl&ots=PApIB2-4Ww&sig=C284BFQuWw35yS_bblUKwMUQh5Y&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjn0r7D7J3VAhVB0FQKHSI0DUsQ6AEITjAH#v=onepage&q=%22prima%20fa">materiality
rules</a><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>are sometimes cited as just
such a low bar, likewise the same phenomenon occurs in <a href="http://iplegalcorner.com/missing-evidence-in-failing-to-prove-prima-facie-case/">domain
name registration cases</a>. Interestingly enough, white <a href="https://books.google.com/books?id=us3hBwAAQBAJ&pg=PT475&dq=statistics;+medical+schools+%22discrimination+against+Jews%22&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwiwzpeZuJ7VAhUByGMKHS67CMcQ6AEIJzAA#v=onepage&q=statistics%3B%20medical%20schools%20%22discrimination%20against%20Jews%22&f=false" target="_blank">Jews</a> have made profitable use of statistical "disparity" arguments in opening up long denied opportunities- see for example- (<i>Harold Wechsler. 2014. The Qualified Student: A History of Selective College Admission in America</i>). There is sometimes a reason for low bars, and they have been useful in cracking entrenched systems of discrimination in employment. As anyone who has learned something about discrimination law would know, a low bar
for a prima facie case is simply a <i>first step</i>. All a low bar does is stop
your case from being quickly thrown out <i>initially</i>. You still have to make a
convincing case before the judge(s), and meet numerous tests, per above. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="color: blue;">Employment discrimination
plaintiffs almost always face a substantial uphill battle, and a big imbalance in power. This is another reason why courts may allow a modest initial bar.</span> Employers have numerous
advantages, including the ability to simply wear down the typically unemployed
plaintiff by dragging out the legal process. Employers also have a favorable monopoly on many types
of evidence kept on company premises, and have a favorable lineup of witnesses
they control- usually other employees- some pressured to say what the Corporate or other Defendant wants them to say. Employers also are protected by the requirement for a minimum showing of credible
business necessity for a policy or practice- in which case the burden shifts to
the Plaintiff. Recognition of these disadvantages and imbalances of power is in
part, the reason courts or legislators set an initially low prima facie bar. But
that is only <i>initially</i>. And discrimination plaintiffs face a costly legal
process themselves- often unemployed, having to front lawyer's fees, paying various
admin costs, and waiting YEARS for resolution. And they don’t go to court
immediately, they first have to go through the EEOC bureaucracy which has a <a href="http://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2013/06/blog-post.html">case
backlog measured in YEARS</a> for those content to wait. Even those who obtain a streamlined EEOC release, still have to go to regular court and face years of legal struggle, with all their attendant costs. Does all the above mean that there have been no abuses of disparate impact or weak cases? NO of course not. But abuses and weak cases occur in <i>every</i> field of litigation- race discrimination cases are not any "unusual" phenomenon supposedly "destroying" the system. And as already shown above, modest prima facie requirements in legal conflicts are nothing special, and there is no
"easy" road requiring a mere "speck" of something, as
dramatically insinuated by Thomas Sowell.
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Sowell also conveniently skips a key case, Washington versus Davis (1976) where the high court rejected the claim of black plaintiffs that a certain test required for police employment had a disparate impact, holding that said tests, neutral on face value were valid, unless enacted with discriminatory intent. This is a far cry from the "courts gone wild" insinuations of Thomas Sowell, who again, is careful to cherry pick his sources and examples to build a skewed argument. (<i>Stevens and Scheb 2008. American Constitutional Law, Vol II, p 456</i>)</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Up above it was noted that Sowell is mysteriously missing in action when it appears he might have to substantially critique the works of right-wing intellectuals. His discussion of Herenstein and Murray's <i>"The Bell Curve"</i> may seem like an exception, but... He devotes almost 8 pages to it in chapter 5, much of the time defending the authors against the charge of being genetic determinists, But again, a curious omission. In the 1995 book, "The Bell Curve Wars," Sowell specifically discusses the book and while noting its strengths such as its statistics, also discusses a number of glaring weaknesses- including how the Flynn effect undermines certain Bell Curve arguments, and the naive use of statistical correlations. Amazingly, while Sowell has the time and space to devote 2 pages to "black thugs", and even works in Jesse's finances, he can barely muster 2 lines specifically addressing weaknesses in one of the most prominent books impacting the race issue by a public intellectual in the last 20 years. But that is not surprising since the intellectual is a right-wing author and a personal friend of Sowell. Sowell quickly ducks and runs, saying that he "elsewhere" addressed the Bell Curve. Now why such a curious omission when you have space for 8 pages of pro-Bell Curve deflection or argument, and at least 2 for "negro thugs"? Turns out that Sowell's critique highlights some arguments of his right-wing intellectual colleague in a very unflattering light. Let's quote what Thomas Sowell can't seem to find space for:</div>

<br /></div>
<span style="color: blue;">.. Perhaps the strongest evidence against a genetic basis for intergroup differences in IQ is that the average level of mental test performance has changed very significantly for whole populations over time and, moreover, particular ethnic groups within the population have changed their relative positions during a period when there was very little intermarriage to change the genetic makeup of these groups.</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: blue;">While The Bell Curve cites the work of James R. Flynn, who found substantial increases in mental test performances from one generation to the next in a number of countries around the world, the authors seem not to acknowledge the devastating implications of that finding for the genetic theory of intergroup differences, or for their own reiteration of long-standing claims that the higher fertility of low-IQ groups implies a declining national IQ level. This latter claim is indeed logically consistent with the assumption that genetics is a major factor in interracial differences in IQ scores. But ultimately this too is an empirical issue--and empirical evidence has likewise refuted the claim that IQ test performance would decline over time.</span><br />

<span style="color: blue;">Even before Professor Flynn's studies, mental test results from American soldiers tested in World War II showed that their performances on these tests were higher than the performances of American soldiers in World War I by the equivalent of about 12 IQ points. Perhaps the most dramatic changes were those in the mental test performances of Jews in the United States. The results of World War I mental tests conducted among American soldiers born in Russia--the great majority of whom were Jews--showed such low scores as to cause Carl Brigham, creator of the Scholastic Aptitude Test, to declare that these results "disprove the popular belief that the Jew is highly intelligent." Within a decade, however, Jews in the United States were scoring above the national average on mental tests, and the data in The Bell Curve indicate that they are now far above the national average in IQ."</span><br />

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="color: blue;">"The implications of such rising patterns of mental test performance is devastating to the central hypothesis of those who have long expressed the same fear as Herrnstein and Murray, that the greater fertility of low-IQ groups would lower the national (and international) IQ over time. The logic of their argument seems so clear and compelling that the opposite empirical result should be considered a refutation of the assumptions behind that logic....</span></div>
<span style="color: blue;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: blue;">A man who scores 100 on an IQ test today is answering more questions correctly than his grandfather with the same IQ answered two-generations ago, then someone else who answers the same number of questions correctly today as this man's grandfather answered two generations ago may have an IQ of 85.</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: blue;">Herrnstein and Murray openly acknowledge such rises in IQ and christen them "the Flynn effect," in honor of Professor Flynn who discovered it. But they seem not to see how crucially it undermines the case for a genetic explanation of interracial IQ differences. They say:</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: blue;">"The national averages have in fact changed by amounts that are comparable to the fifteen or so IQ points separating blacks and whites in America. To put it another way, on the average, whites today differ from whites, say, two generations ago as much as whites today differ from blacks today. Given their size and speed, the shifts in time necessarily have been due more to changes in the environment than to changes in the genes."</span><br />
<span style="color: red;"> ...... quote by Sowell from the Bell Curve Wars (1995), continued.. </span>
<br />
<br />
<span style="color: blue;">"While this open presentation of evidence against the genetic basis of interracial IQ differences is admirable, the failure to draw the logical inference seems puzzling. Blacks today are just as racially different from whites of two generations ago as they are from whites today. Yet the data suggest that the number of questions that blacks answer correctly on IQ tests today is very similar to the number answered correctly by past generations of whites. If race A differs from race B in IQ, and two generations of race A differ from each other by the same amount, where is the logic in suggesting that the IQ differences are even partly racial?"</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: blue;">"Herrnstein and Murray do not address this question, but instead shift to a discussion of public policy.."</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="color: blue;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="color: blue;"><span style="color: #990000;">"Perhaps the most intellectually troubling aspect of The Bell Curve is the authors' uncritical approach to statistical correlations</span>. One of the first things taught in introductory statistics is that correlation is not causation. It is also one of the first things forgotten, and one of the most widely ignored facts in public policy research. The statistical term "multicollinearity," dealing with spurious correlations, appears only once in this massive book.</span></div>
<span style="color: blue;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: blue;"> Multicollinearity refers to the fact that many variables are highly correlated with one another, so that it is very easy to believe that a certain result comes from variable A, when in fact it is due to variable Z, with which A happens to be correlated. In real life, innumerable factors go together. An example I liked to use in class when teaching economics involved a study showing that economists with only a bachelor's degree had higher incomes than economists with a master's degree and that these in turn had higher incomes than economists with Ph.D.'s. The implication that more education in economics leads to lower incomes would lead me to speculate as to how much money it was costing a student just to be enrolled in my course. In this case, when other variables were taken into account, these spurious correlations disappeared. In many other cases, however, variables such as cultural influences cannot even be quantified, much less have their effects tested statistically...."</span> <br />

QUOTE:</div>
<span style="color: blue;">"Herrnstein and Murray's conception of SES, in addition, to cite the strong words of one critic, is "unspeakably crude." They measure respondents' social environment by constructing an index of parental socioeconomic status consisting of four variables: mother's education, father's education, family income, and parents' occupational status. This index is limited even as a measure of family background; as an instrument for estimating the cumulative effects of "social and economic disadvantage." it is exceedingly narrow. It excludes an assortment of important social variables pertaining both to respondents' parental background anti to their own current social and economic circumstances, including family size and composition, quality of education, local employment opportunities, community and neighborhood characteristics, and quality of social contacts. Several replications of Herrnstein and Murray’s analysis using more refined measures of socioeconomic background find that The Bell Curve consistently underestimates the influence of the social environment relative to IQ on life outcomes.”</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="color: blue;"></span><br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="color: blue;">Perhaps the most serious problem with Herrnstein and Murray's argument is that their own data, buried in one of the appendixes to their book, reveal only very weak correlations between IQ scores and social outcomes.38 According to the statistics they report, IQ has at best a modest effect on how individuals live their lives; contrary to their central argument, it is not "a major predictor of income ." One team of economists, reanalyzing the data used in The Bell Curve, found that cognitive ability, even in combination with education and experience, explains "at most one third of the total variance in wages." Herrnstein and Murray, they report, 'dramatically overstate the degree to which differences in wages among individuals can be attributed to differences in cognitive ability.'10 This conclusion would not be so damaging if the objective of The Bell Curie were only to prove that IQ, along with many other variables, has some influence on life outcomes. But Herrnstein and Murray maintain that intelligence is the predominant force in people's lives, and this claim is refuted by their "small to middling" correlations.4 Though not entirely irrelevant to economic achievement, cognitive ability, inherited or not, does not play anything like the powerful role Herrnstein and Murray attribute to it."</span></div>

<b>Summary and bottom line</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Notice how several points above contradict the Bell Curve. Sowell does not even bother to summarize his critique, just skips it altogether, though he has plenty of space for "negro thugs." All is not avoidance. Sowell in Chapter 5 does mention things such as the similarly low IQ scores for white people suffering from isolation or poverty. And he notes IQ gaps are not unusual among and within groups and yes, Asians do post higher IQs than whites. But all this is rather muted, as if Sowell does not want too much scrutiny applied to them, as compared to "the liberals." Among the "solutions" of Sowell's libertarian, racialist and right wing fellow travelers is repealing the Civil Rights Act of 1964, and total elimination of many social programs and spending such as Medicare, unemployment insurance and workers compensation. Other arguments maintain black genetic inferiority and roll out numerous shaky statistics and methodology in support. Sowell avoids most of it, like his hero, black journalist and rabid John Bircher George Schuyler. Such ducking serves an important ideological function. It exempts RIGHT-WING intellectuals from too much scrutiny, particularly those to whom he is connected financially and ideologically. Given all the omissions, the result is a book that is much less useful than it could have been in understanding "Intellectuals and race." </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
While some of Sowell's work is still good, a significant slice of it must be taken with a grain of salt, considering the many libertarian and hereditarian ideological axes he grinds, the things he omits, and the right wing fellow-travelers he avoids. Modern day black libertarian types in this area like Zambian scientist <a href="https://www.unz.com/author/chanda-chisala/" target="_blank">Chanda Chisala</a> seem to offer a more nuanced view, with more current data. Chisala seems not to mind taking on right-wing intellectuals, or "hereditarian" racialists <a href="https://www.unz.com/article/closing-the-black-white-iq-gap-debate-part-i/" target="_blank">here</a> for example, where he demonstrates that the higher test performances of African immigrants undermines assorted "racial regression" <a href="https://www.unz.com/article/closing-the-black-white-iq-gap-debate-part-3/" target="_blank">claims</a>.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
To sum up, this article demonstrates the flaws in Sowell's work, including:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
--A focus on old news and examples rather than contemporary data<br />
--Avoidance of discussing many contemporary right wing intellectuals views on race<br />
--A focus on bashing "the liberals" and their sins but maintaining studied silence on right wing scholars<br />
--Avoidance of discussion on the "cosmic solutions" on race that prominent right wing intellectuals endorse such as rolling back Civil Rights laws and eliminating numerous social programs like Medicaid, disability insurance, Worker's Compensation etc..<br />
--Omission of Sowell's own critical work where it would substantially call right wing claims into question<br />

"</span><br />--Sowell, A Personal Odyssey p 268-269<br /><div><br /></div><div>But such claims have several weaknesses. </div><div><br /></div><div>1) First, Sowell is ether ignorant of, or misrepresents data on black progress. It is interesting that he gives no supporting evidence to back his statement about indifferent or low civil rights gains. But hard empirical data by other scholars shows the claim to be shaky. As scholars Devey and Stainback note:<br /><br /><span style="color: red;">"Even more striking is the rapid increase in white women’s access to managerial jobs after 1971. White women move from being underrepresented in managerial jobs by 70 percent to being underrepresented by only 12 percent at the turn of the century. While they have not yet reached parity, white women have made remarkable and consistent gains. Black males also have made gains in private sector managerial employment, although their advances are not as dramatic or consistent. Black males were barely represented among managers in this EEOC reporting sample in 1966, being underrepresented by 90 percent relative to their employment in the sector. They made sustained improvements through 1983, although they were still substantially underrepresented at –54 percent of their general labor market employment. No further progress was made through the 1980s, but progress began again across the 1990s."</span><br /><br /><b><i>[FROM: --Donald Tomaskovic-Devey and Kevin Stainback. 2007.

the 1960s, for example, under the impact of sustained economic growth, the
civil rights movement, and government-sponsored affirmative action hiring
programs, there was a significant increase in the number of blacks in high-level
occupations. Between 1960 and 1969, the number of black men over twenty-five
years old in professional and technical occupations increased by 1.07 percent. In
managerial occupations, the number increased by 117 percent. Other large
increases occurred in employment as trade workers (52 percent) and sales
personnel (42 percent). All of these percentage increases were greater than the
percentage increase in black men over twenty-five years of age in the labor force
as a whole. During the 1970s, in a stagnant economy and a changed political
environment, these gains largely ceased."<br />

(2008). pg 128<o:p></o:p></i></p>The astute reader will notice that the biggest beneficiary from the Civil Rights Act is white women, but that the blacks though still substantially underrepresented, did make measurable progress better than before the Act, for the managerial level jobs, debunking Sowell's claim. Other scholars noted below also show the same pattern of black gains after the Civil Rights Act. This progress was arrested by the general econmic decline of the 1970s, affecting ALL workers. The Act did not "cause" ALL the gain- no one piece of legislation can claim that- but it did aid the large pool of qualified blacks who had been frozen out of the market before the Act. This pool of people is somewhat analogous to black baseball players before Jackie Robinson's era- more than qualified, and in some cases better qualified than whites, and/or more competitive,, but still locked out of the game by white racism and protectionism, despite a lot of hypocritical talk about "merit" and "free markets."<br /><br /><span style="color: red;">2) Second, most blacks had no "utopian" illusions</span> that the mere passage of a civil rights bill would erase centuries of disadvantage and/or Jim Crow. In fact even ML King had no such illusions. To be sure, <i>somewhere</i> among some 20-25 million blacks there were some "utopianists" but both "responsible" civil rights leadership and surging "black nationalists" saw passage of the bill as only on step in a long process that had much more struggle to come. Neither Malcolm X (who mocked the bill as a fraud given white America's racism) or Stokely Carmichael are on record with any "utopian" visions, nor are people like the era's NAACP leader Roy Wilkins. See also the interview with ML King quoted above in 1967 which specifically disavows "utopianism."<br /><br /><span style="color: red;">3) The third distortion is Sowell's progress indicators. He says he expected no dramatic change in the relative economic position between blacks and whites as a result of the Act. OK, but who credible expected</span> that massive economic advantages accrued by whites over blacks during 200 years of slavery and 100 years of Jim Crow would be magically erased by a law on paper 1964? Or a 5 year span between 1964 and 1969? As already shown above, few credible civil rights leaders held such notions, nor most likely most serious competing black nationalist/militant leaders, or even most ordinary black citizens on the street. Hopeful yes. Expecting instant nirvana? Hardly.<br /><br /><br /><span style="color: red;">4) Sowell then tries a 4th distortion as already seen above, claiming "bitter" economic consequences after the Act, that whatever legal or political changes gained, would </span><span style="color: red;">yield only "bitter" economic fruit.</span> Far from yielding "bitter" fruit however, the Civil Rights Act can be credited with rather beautiful blooms as huge swathes of opportunities were opened up for blacks. See the hard data above but also below by Gavin Wright and others for example, particularly in the South, refuting Sowell's attempt to confine Civil rights progress to only the legal and political spheres. Much of this hard data was around at the time or before Sowell's book, so he has no excuse for not dealing with it, except, in an all too common pattern, he avoid evidence contrary to his ideological theme, or resorts to cherry picked factoids or anecdotes-some of only limited relevance, scope or context.<br /><br />It is also curious that Sowell chooses such a short time period to measure his alleged "bitter" fruit. His standard pattern is again revealing- he cherry picks his method of measuring the impact of the Civil Rights Act- making comparisons to 5 years before, with five years after. But why a mere 5 years before/after comparison given 100 years of Jim Crow? So in 5 years, the massive black disadvantages in education, employment etc imposed by whites was supposed to magically disappear? How is that even remotely supposed to be possible in the real world? Here again is the distorted strawman aspect of Sowell's work. By selecting a crude and short 5 year "before and after" comparison, the progress made can be obfuscated and downplayed. But some of the data in Sowell's own work shows the flaws in his argument. For example in an earlier book: "Civil Rights, Rhetoric or Reality," he points out that single continuously working black women had achieved wage parity with white women by 1969. How would this be possible under his alleged "bitter" fruit scenario of empty gains after the Act?<br /><br />And assuming his before/after comparison is correct for the sake of argument, there were a number of factors that pulled black men out of the immediate workforce in the five years directly after the law, such as the Vietnam War which in the main began in 1965 for the US. And what about those black men leaving the Vietnam era army AFTER 1965 with their GI Bil education benefits, and VA housing loan benefits (still dogged by the discriminatory "redlining" policies of the federal government) in hand who began a new working life? Five years after 1964 is not enough time to fairly gauge how they fared in moving up into professional jobs given that such jobs need education and often years of experience. In fact, a black veteran taking 3-4 years out of the workforce to use his GI Bill benefits to get that education would NOT be counted in Sowell's magical professionals/high level category. One can see the disingenuousness of Sowell' selection of a 5-year "after" comparison- by choosing a brief 5 year span, he can, again obfuscate and downplay the progress made.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhjQqXJ-bNcRwZkWFtVbXJ0I9F61KgEMl60hAV_IWbPqq5zuf5-k8qNsyW3xPBAgNh-F-RZ53AwBXh3xTeNTHRYwFvyBO5PEISVDVqOsOBCJYih8WhbHy0CcTkhozCTNiwh2jqc2m9IqXcW/s1600/senator_and_sharecropper_hamer_eastland.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="453" data-original-width="300" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhjQqXJ-bNcRwZkWFtVbXJ0I9F61KgEMl60hAV_IWbPqq5zuf5-k8qNsyW3xPBAgNh-F-RZ53AwBXh3xTeNTHRYwFvyBO5PEISVDVqOsOBCJYih8WhbHy0CcTkhozCTNiwh2jqc2m9IqXcW/s320/senator_and_sharecropper_hamer_eastland.jpg" width="209" /></a></div><br /><br /><span style="color: red;">5) Sowell also conveniently skirts around the fact that civil rights "agitation" was a significant force PRIOR to 1964, that in fact, led to the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Progress made before 1964 is not ALL due to "rights agitation" - but such civil rights activism is itself, ALSO part of what stimulated progress.</span><br /><br />This "civil rights agitation" was active in the 1940's, and it was necessary. IN WW2 time and time again whites went on strike, sometimes violently to block blacks from getting better paying defense industry jobs even though there was a war on. During the war, a significant slice of white people put blockading black employment AHEAD of defeating Nazi Germany or the Japanese, and ahead of so-called "free markets." When black folk got jobs due to "free market" hiring, whites moved to shut it down. When war production was urgently needed whites moved to shut this down too. Why, when production was urgently needed at the front to defeat the evil Axis enemies of democracy? Why? Because black folk were finally getting a tiny piece of the action. QUOTE:<br /><br /><span style="color: red;">"On May 24, 1943, Alabama Dry Dock employed nearly 7,000 black workers, none of them in skilled occupations. Suddenly, in compliance with a six-month-old directive from the President's Committee on Fair Employment Practice (FEPc), the once-recalcitrant company upgraded 12 blacks to welding jobs. The next morning, after the twelve men had gone home, the yard erupted. Responding to cries to "get every one of them Niggers off this island," enraged whites assaulted their black co-workers with pipes, clubs, and other weapons from their workaday world. Some blacks sus-tained serious injuries in the melee, and virtually all of them experienced hours of terror, which ended only when United States Army troops from nearby Brookley Field arrived on Pinto Island to restore order."</span> --FROM: Nelson, Bruce. 1993.

The Journal of American History volume 80, issue 3<br /><br />or:<br /><br /><span style="color: red;">"Many [strikes] were based on racism as whites objected to African Americans getting new jobs in defense plants. Perhaps the most shameful occurred in Baltimore, where black employees rose from 2 percent to 29 percent at a Western Electric plant in the first two years of the war.. 'twenty-two white women walked off their after one black woman was transferred into their formally all white department.' Their objection focused on integrated toilet facilities which previously had been segregated by race. When the War Labor Board ruled in favor of integration, 'about 70 percent of the company's workers' struck- a percentage that included almost all white workers both men and women.. Army troops took over the company for the first three months of 1944 -until the company gave into the white workers and re-segregated restrooms."</span> -- Doris Weatherford 2009, American women during World War 2: An Encyclopedia. pg 436<br /><br /><br />Problems like this made A. Phillip Randolph threaten to lead a black March On Washington. Such a dangerous civil rights demonstration threat forced embarrassed white officials to begin opening up more defense jobs, and begin some halting anti-discrimination enforcement. After all how could they be boosting "democracy" against facism when they could not even guarantee basic decency for negroes in their own back yard, or keep war factories open? And so it went. In the 1940s it was civil rights agitation and lawsuits that helped force open defense industry jobs for blacks, and helped create the positive trend lines, including forcing southern state regimes to finally pay black teachers same as whites. It was civil rights agitation after black soldiers were attacked on buses that finally moved Truman to his landmark desegregation of the armed forces. </div><div><br /></div><div><div>Action on educational "trend lines" was also moving along in the years before the landmark Brown vs Board. Lawsuits forced equal pay for black teachers, and as Professor Michael Klarman, a sometime critic of Brown (<i>See Michael J. Klarman - From Jim Crow to Civil Rights_ The Supreme Court and the Struggle for Racial Equality-Oxford UPress (2004</i>) shows, several southern states began to upgrade "colored" schools even before the court decision in the 1950s, acutely aware of the torrent of litigation in the pipeline attacking the fraudulent "separate but equal" doctrine which certainly was separate but never equal.. These long-delayed upgrades were designed to head off legal action or scrutiny by demonstrating that facilities were blacks were "equal" to those of whites, thus complying with Plesssy, and neutralizing court challenges. But by the 1950s it was too late to play the old games. Nevertheless, the upgrades of long neglected black southern schools, and the opening up of better access to blacks for educational opportunity via continual civil rights pressure did improve the pipeline of educated blacks, in a better position to take advantage of expanding post-war opportunities.</div><div><br /></div><div>In short, civil rights activism, including the relentless filing of court cases, was a critical factor in forcing changes, over and above war needs, so that by the end of the war almost 9% of the defense industry's workers were black. (<i>See- Black Labor and the American Legal System: Race, Work, and the Law By Herbert Hill, 1985</i>). Civil rights pressure also forced out and improved educational opportunities, even under the laughable "separate but equal" formula, once state regimes realized that court challenges would severely shake the farcical "separate but equal" doctrine. Civil rights struggles complemented each other- lawsuits, marches, boycotts, lobbying and disruptive protests. Hearings by the FEPC during WW2 for example not only achieved individual complainant relief, but exposed far and wide the deception, hypocrisy and brutality of white segregationist practice, even in the face of wartime demands. This exposure furnished excellent ammunition to lobby for political support, undertake protests and file court cases. The famous Montgomery Bus Boycott is another example. The actual boycott was not only encouraged and fired up by a key court case- Brown vs Board- but in fact towards the end used the 14th Amendment arguments from Brown vs Board to keep the boycotters' lawsuit alive and before the district and the Supreme Court, without which their legal struggle would have been doomed. It was the Supreme Court decision in Browder vs Gayle that ended the boycott just in time to prevent the local Jim Crow authorities from using a state anti-boycott law to crush the boycott and its car-pool. Thus, "civil rights" did not begin with the 1964 CRA, but was an ongoing high-pressure struggle decades before, and it played a powerful part in moving the "trend lines" positively for blacks before 1964. Sowell's simplistic "before and after" comparison is designed to obfuscate this important point.</div><div><br /></div><br /><span style="color: red;">6) Sowell also skips over a common pattern that occurred when 1960s civil rights laws were passed. The "bitter fruit" experienced by some blacks was often a function of white INSTRANGIENCE AND OBSTRUCTIONISM when it came to IMPLEMENTATION of the law. </span>Memoirs of blacks from this era, along with numerous government reports, lawsuits, etc all testify to this, and show some demoralized blacks lamenting that whites were not willing to wholeheartedly or in good faith implement the new laws. It took more marches, protests, lawsuits, federal arm-twisting and even threats of abandoning non-violence to get whites to live up to their responsibilities. Memoirs of civil rights icon Fannie Lou Hamer for example show her not only lamenting that progress was so slow after the Civil Rights laws, but that fact of some whites, on both local and national levels, sandbagging and obstructing that progress. (See <i>The Senator and the Sharecropper- The Freedom Struggles of James O. Eastland and Fannie Lou Hamer- By Chris Myers Asch 2011</i>). Likewise histories of the famous Deacons For Defense and Justice (see<i> Lance Hill, 2006. The Deacons For Defence</i>) show bitter laments about white opposition including KKK assaults, beatings, shootings, and economic intimidation when blacks attempted to actually eat in restaurants or use local parks after 1964. It took armed self-defense and protest in some areas to eventually pressure the federal government to act and begin a tough crackdown on white terrorism, a crackdown that could have occurred years earlier. (See <i>US vs Original Knights of the <a href="https://law.justia.com/cases/federal/district-courts/FSupp/250/330/2341226/" target="_blank">KKK</a>, c 1965</i>). The FBI however was too busy with other things to be bothered with domestic terrorism, what with surveillance even of conservative groups and leaders like the NAACP's Roy Wilkins, and never deployed its huge apparatus to build cases against or hound white terrorist leaders as it did against black organizations.<br /><br />Even the famous Montgomery Bus Boycott, hailed example of the post-war/post Brown civil rights era, failed to bring about substantial desegregation, for whites used both intimidation and subterfuge <u><b>after </b></u>the court decision, removing OPEN segregation ordinances and transferring enforcement to private bus companies whose drivers had full power, backed by the city, to regulate passenger seating. Southern cities using this manipulation, including Birmingham, could thus claim "plausible denial" when white bus drivers pushed around black passengers, including ordering them to the back of the bus. What can we do? said white officials piously.. It's a private company making private operating rules for "safety and efficiency"? Wink.. wink.. There even had to be follow-up lawsuits to get white people to live up to court rulings by white judges: (see <i>Bowman vs Birmingham Transit 1962 - <a href="https://casetext.com/case/boman-v-birmingham-transit-company">https://casetext.com/case/boman-v-birmingham-transit-compan</a></i>) But this was not all. After the boycott victory, the local black organization imploded as the city declared all other services would remain segregated, and white terrorists unleashed a bombing and intimidation campaign that almost killed Martin Luther King. It was only until the Civil Rights Act of 1964 that southern cities like Montgomery, or Birmingham, finally desegregated, despite well publicized protest campaigns, and even after 1964 some residual arm-twisting via protests and lawsuits was required for minimal compliance. There was thus plenty for blacks to be "bitter" about during and in the immediate post-civil rights era, but that bitterness was not necessarily any function of finding things too complicated to manage after removal of formal Jim Crow, but by continued white opposition, subterfuge and deception deployed to sandbag new black opportunities and rights. Sowell of course, conveniently skips this part of the story about "bitter" fruit.<br /><br /><br /><span style="color: red;">7) Sowell is just plain wrong when how says that economic progress proceeded at no faster pace as in the past. </span>Numerous credible scholars debunk this assertion as detailed below. Indeed it is only by using the distorted "5-year comparison" that Sowell can support his shaky assertion. Other right-wingers have attempted to extend a simplistic "before/after" model into the 1970s, but the 1970s were a time of GENERAL economic decline, recession, oil embargoes and stagflation- hence of course after the booming 1960s, a "decline" would set in, but this was a GENERAL economic decline for the ENTIRE economy not any "bitter" fruit of the Civil Rights Act. Let's look at hard, detailed evidence rather than simplistic, cherry-picked methods.<br /><br />Civil Rights Laws had nationwide impact, but most significant, was their impact where discrimination was most severe- that is, the South. Sowell, who so often comes up with the most obscure factoids (such as suicide rates of Chinese in 1800s Cuba), carefully avoids even a basic regional comparison. Let's take a look at just one example among tens of thousands. In South Carolina for example blacks and whites were forbidden to work together in the same room or department - a nice deal for white people, who got to monopolize all the better paying, less dirty jobs in offices and factories. As one history notes:<br /><br /><span style="color: red;">"Heller’s company provided employment to hundreds of single and married women in Greenville, mostly employed as machine operators. Like all manufacturing plants in South Carolina, the company was segregated into departments by race, a policy established by state law. Custom dictated that even Christmas parties be segregated. In 1960, a local newspaper article pictured Heller presenting awards to several black female employees. The caption noted that a company party was held “Tuesday night for its Negro employees . . . A similar party will be held for White employees Friday at the plant..” </span><br />(--Hasia Diner 2018. Doing Business in America: A Jewish History)<br /><br />While the boss of the above company, Heller, made the courageous decision to desegregate restroom facilities shortly before the civil Rights Act of 1964, other employers were less inclined. It took the coming of the Civil Rights Era and its forcing open of basic equal access and treatment, to make solid, ongoing progress. The CRA of course did not act alone- other factors such as the post-war economic expansion played a part, but both worked together to measurably improve black employment, income, education, and other crucial life variables like health. <span style="color: red;">"Heckman and Payner (1989) use microdata from textile plants in South Carolina to study the effects of race on employment between 1940 and 1980, concluding that federal antidiscrimination policy resulted in a significant improvement in black economic status between 1965 and 1975." <i>(Pager and Shepard 2008) </i></span>Likewise detailed data such as Gavin Wright's Sharing the Prize (2013) illustrate the same point of significant black gains under after Civil Rights Laws, not only for things like employment, but in educational attainment, occupational status and even health. The forcing open of Jim Crow southern hospitals (through threat of withholding federal funds) for example was a boon to black health.

Black workers shifted occupations rapidly in response to reduced discrimination and improved opportunities.<br /><br />(3) Black women advanced more rapidly relative to their white counter-parts than black men in part because declines in discrimination have greater effects on job markets, such as those for women, where on-the-job training and cumulated experience are less important and where gross turnover of the work force is rapid. Such markets allow older as well as younger workers to take advantage of new opportunities, and, moreover, they are the special province of women..."</span><br /><br />and<br /><br /><span style="color: red;">".. the federal law extends to the South, accounts for one-half of black employment and exhibits the greatest differences between black and white incomes.

but willingly borne or shifted to others</span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">. He says there are costs to discrimination, which is certainly
true, but simply because there were costs does not endow "free
markets" with any magical properties to aid black progress. For one thing,
whites were quite willing to bear added costs to suppress black economic
progress when this suppression boosted white benefits, income and privilege.
Refusal to hire blacks could mean a company lost profits from hiring cheaper
black labor, but the greater gain was that whites monopolized all the better or
skilled jobs, boosting their incomes and asset acquisition opportunities, while
relegating blacks to the chump change leftovers. Costs did not mean the overall
system was not profitable, nor meet it objectives, for costs can always be
passed on to others. White consumers in some areas probably paid more for goods
or services produced by white union workers, but this was an acceptable
tradeoff, in view of maintaining income boosting white advantage and benefit.<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><br /><br /></div><div><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: red; font-size: 13.5pt;">b) Racial monopolies
or cartels certainly can shift costs easier, but individual white actors or
businesses can also shift the costs of discrimination</span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">. Sowell asserts that government, or
government regulated monopolies could afford to pass on costs of discrimination
to customers who have nowhere else to go. This too is true under certain
circumstances, but individual white businessmen ALSO passed on higher costs to
customers and still made decent profits. In fact many white customers (even in
the north) for housing, jobs, retail service, transportation, business
locations, and various merchandise insisted that blacks be pushed to the back
of the line so whites would reap foremost advantage. In these cases,
businessmen, logically, simply passed on the higher costs to white customers,
meeting their customers' market demands. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">But it was not
only whites to whom costs were shifted. Higher costs were also passed on to
blacks by white enterprises and individuals, as the blacks had to pay similar
prices as whites for <b>inferior </b>facilities, amenities, goods and
services. Black riders for example, could be bundled to the back of
buses or streetcars while paying the same fare as better-treated whites. Having
nowhere else to go but with the white transport system monopoly, they were
forced to pay the same price for worse service. Desperate Blacks looking to
escape overcrowded ghetto zones were forced to pay a higher price for older, more
run down properties. White real estate
agents brokers and bankers could thus unload second-tier assets for a premium
price, again locking in white advantage and profit. White realtors for
example made nice profits from manipulative "blockbusting" and white
home-owners could unload less than sterling properties for premium prices that
many blacks would pay. See for example (<i>Mehlhorn 1998. "A Requiem for
Blockbusting: Law, Economics, and Race-Based Real Estate Speculation</i>".<i> Fordham
Law Review. 67: 1145-1161</i>.)<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: red; font-size: 13.5pt;">c) Racial cartels
don't only apply to governments or utilities, but to discriminatory systems as
a whole</span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">. Momopolies include
the monopoly held by white society on better jobs, education, assets, etc. The
entire system was/is a monopoly geared to white benefit, and blacks often paid
higher prices for lesser service, assets or goods, because they were
subordinated by the white monopoly, or the racial cartels like unions, or real
estate brokers that made up its subdivisions. Whites ensured that they
controlled the board. Laws for example crushed or blocked black attempts to get
decent business locations, learn or practice a skilled trade, get a good
education, own productive land in competition with whites, etc. If laws did not
work then subtle or hidden manipulation, such as zoning controls to keep out or
suppress black mobility were put in place. Sometimes outright violence was used
to maintain racial cartels or monopolies. Local racial cartels like white
homeowners associations saw increasing property values if blacks were kept out.
White workers in union cartels benefited from higher wages, and better
education. The system of racial cartels worked on multiple levels and meant
multi-general white wealth as blacks were frozen out of home-ownership, and out
of job marketplaces due to second tier education in "colored" or
"negro" schools.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"> </span><span style="color: red; font-size: 13.5pt;"> d) Costs don't
threaten the overall system or make it unprofitable, as the system can be
tweaked or incrementally adjusted to contain cost threats, while preserving the
whole. </span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">Where there were
actual monopolies like bus lines, railroads or street car lines, some costs
could simply be shifted to blacks. Blacks, most of whom were too poor to afford
cars or extended taxi service, and needing quick transportation in urban areas
to work, had no choice but to use segregated streetcars or bus lines where they
were treated atrociously. Companies did not need to add duplicate vehicles for
blacks to ride in. They simply relegated blacks to the back, or margins of
existing stock vehicles, holding down costs while still mistreating captive
black patrons. Tweaks could also use time profitably. In housing, Blacks could
be corralled into overcrowded ghettoes bursting at the seams, but when undue
pressure threatened the system, allowances could be made for them to spill over
into older white areas. Since many of these "transitional" areas had
older, more dilapidated housing stock, the tweak not only eased the pressure
points and preserved the overall system of white monopoly benefit, but actually
boosted white profits, as desperate blacks were willing to pay more than whites
would for such lesser properties</span></p></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: red; font-size: 13.5pt;">e) Far from simply
being a negative cost factor, discrimination systems can/could be profitable as
an indication of social status and exclusivity- "we're too good to let
blacks live, play or try on clothes they purchase here" for example</span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">. In fact restaurants, housing
developments, clothing stores, department stores, clubs and other venues could
gain a competitive advantage with white customers by emphasizing how special
or <b>exclusive </b>their brand was- and one of the easiest ways to
do that was to reject blacks. Far from being a burdensome cost,
discriminatory policies could be a positive good for some businesses. Once
again, tweaking the system could ease pressure points and yield
double-benefits. Many restaurants for example refused to let blacks eat among
the good white folk, but still took black money around the back at a takeout
window. White stores could reject blacks that attempt to try on a clothing
purchase (earning the approval of white customers for this exclusivity), but
still took black money around the back by off-hours "special
arrangement." In other words, discrimination could roll along at a merry
clip, with enough flexibility built into the system to overcome various cost
downsides, and even gain profits..<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><br /></div><div><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: red; font-size: 13.5pt;">f) Discriminatory
costs or lost profits were/are sometime irrelevant to the maintenance of
psychic and societal benefits of whiteness, and such costs and losses are a
function of private cultural mores and customs, not necessarily government.</span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">White employers also wanted to maintain a
good name in the local community among their fellow white citizens and
neighbors, and keep labor peace with white employees. The profits foregone from
refusing to hire or service blacks could often be deemed acceptable by most
whites, in view of the white goodwill among fellow whites- which had some
economic value. The PRIVATE opposition of white citizens or customers against
hiring blacks for example, or allowing blacks to operate a business at a
particular location could create so much social or cultural hassle for an
employer that it was not worth the time or trouble, whatever the theoretical
"lost profits" due to discrimination. During the bitter union busting
conflicts between white streetcar union workers and Houston businessmen in the
early1900s for example, employers avoided bringing in black strikebreakers to
take the place of whites, who monopolized all the skilled and better
semi-skilled jobs, even though the cheaper blacks that could do these jobs
would certainly have helped break the union, while lowering costs. But tough as
they were against the union “agitators” and “communist elements”, employers
knew that if they brought in negroes to do “white men’s jobs” public opinion
would turn overwhelmingly against them. It was better to use more expensive
white “scab” labor.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">Socio-cultural hassles
did not necessarily mean loss of overall white advantage however. The many
petty PRIVATE socio-cultural hassles and barriers laid on blacks or on black-
white interaction, such as the need for separate restrooms, eating places,
ticket windows, work stations and a host of other such impedimenta, created so
much hassle for employers that they found it better NOT to hire blacks in the
first place. In short, petty PRIVATE segregation, along with that imposed by
government, created the incentive to NOT hire blacks. This suited white racial
cartels just fine. Locking blacks out of expanding segments of the modern
economy was the end result of such PRIVATE socio-cultural preferences. This of
course meant higher white incomes and greater asset acquisition, due to the
sandbagging of potential black competition. In short, "government
interference" was not the exclusive imposer of racial barriers. Social
mores, norms and cultural preferences all worked to ensure white advantage.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: red; font-size: 13.5pt;">g) Time could be
manipulated profitably to shift costs of discrimination and enhance white
advantage. </span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">In the </span><st1:country-region><st1:place><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">US</span></st1:place></st1:country-region><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"> and </span><st1:country-region><st1:place><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">South Africa</span></st1:place></st1:country-region><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">, some employers flouted the "color
line" and hired blacks in "white reserved" jobs. But this did
not threaten the overall system of white benefit and privilege, for such
flouting was only on temporary sufferance. At any time, white governments or
unions oft could and did crack down on flouting of the color bar- 100% success
was not needed to reinforce the message that violations could be shut down at
any time. When economic times worsened, as in the </span><st1:country-region><st1:place><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">US</span></st1:place></st1:country-region><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"> under the Great Depression, the black
workers were purged and their "reserved" jobs taken over by whites.
See for example (<i>Lester Lamon 1981. Blacks in </i></span><st1:state><st1:place><i><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">Tennessee</span></i></st1:place></st1:state><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">). Likewise white unions were sometimes
willing to tolerate a few blacks in the skilled trades, under their own
"cullud" unions, in lower profitability "colored" areas,
but when construction work in the white areas dried up, these same white unions
muscled aside "the culluds" to take over work in what was supposed to
be "black areas.", See for example (</span><span style="background: white; color: #333333; font-family: Georgia; font-size: 10pt;">Eric Tscheschlol,
1977. “<i>So Goes The Negro”: Race and Labor in </i></span><st1:city><st1:place><i><span style="background: white; color: #333333; font-family: Georgia; font-size: 10pt;">Miami</span></i></st1:place></st1:city><i><span style="background: white; color: #333333; font-family: Georgia; font-size: 10pt;">,</span></i><span style="background: white; color: #333333; font-family: Georgia; font-size: 10pt;"> 1940-1963.

Quarterly, Summer 1997, 42-67) </span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">When companies had layoffs and later
rehired, blacks were “bumped” or pushed aside to make room for returning white
workers. The system of racial monopolies or cartels could be massaged over time
to minimize or shift costs while maintaining white advantage and profit.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"> </span></p>

alternative "free market" operations to escape mistreatment by racial
cartels were usually quickly crushed, locking in white monopoly profits and
power.</span><span style="background: white; font-size: 13.5pt;"> Black
attempts to form competing transport operations with better service for example,
were hounded and harassed out of existence by whites. In </span><st1:place><st1:city><span style="background: white; font-size: 13.5pt;">Chattanooga</span></st1:city><span style="background: white; font-size: 13.5pt;"> </span><st1:state><span style="background: white; font-size: 13.5pt;">Tennessee</span></st1:state></st1:place><span style="background: white; font-size: 13.5pt;"> for example, a promising
effort to bypass segregationist streetcars was derailed when white city
officials declared that horses used in the negro alternative were "worn out"
and announced a series of prosecutions for "animal cruelty" and other
related matters. The negro alternative was eventually driven out of business.
(“<i>Black Boycotts before Montgomery</i>”, <i>August Meier, Professor Of History, Kent State University and Elliott Rudwick, Professor of Sociology,
Kent State University. Ebony Magazine, October 1969, p 155-163</i>) The liquidation
of competing black alternatives was a feature of the overall system.
Independent black unions were similarly crushed, as were attempts by blacks to
establish black enterprises in better locations i.e. white areas. But no
similar prohibition was imposed on whites. White merchants for example were
free to set up shop in “colored” areas, but blacks attempting to do the same in
“white” areas were often sidetracked, sandbagged and stymied. Indeed the
violent ejection of blacks in some so-called “sundown” towns (“negro be out by
sundown”), and the emergence of the “whitecapper”- gangs of white toughs that
attacked negroes who seemed too prosperous, worked to maintain the advantage of
white racial cartels.</span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: red; font-size: 13.5pt;">i) Costs and profit
losses were also not simply a function of evil government interference in
"free markets" but also the function and outcome of white cultural
preferences and desires that suppressed black progress. Both businesses and
individuals discriminated against blacks without any government requirement or
prompting. Whether these desires and preferences were expressed politically or
culturally made little difference as far as economic disadvantage imposed on
blacks.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">Numerous
"Jim Crow"or apartheid practices were in put in place by PRIVATE
businesses and entities PRIOR to actual government laws or enforcement.
Sowell uses the example of streetcar discrimination and cites the Plessy
case where white companies, unwilling to bear the costs of compliance with
government ordinances mandating segregation, helped Plessy sue for relief. This
is accurate and certainly allows creation of a stirring narrative: the white
companies- models of "free market" alternatives, fighting the good
fight against dastardly government "interference." But typical of his
cherry-picking approach, Sowell does not tell the whole story. Some segregation
practices on street cars for example, were put in place WITHOUT any government
mandate to do so. Segregation was based on white cultural preferences, and it
also occurred in the supposedly more "enlightened" North. The
abolitionist Frederick Douglas for example was assaulted and beaten repeatedly
by whites in the "liberal" north when he dared ride in a railroad carriage with the good white folk. And when government mandates were imposed, this was
done at the behest of white consumers and clientele, expressing their
preference to hold back blacks, via the political process. But segregation was already being imposed BEFORE government made it "official", and this is in fact what caused Congress (not "activist judges") to pass the Civil Rights Act of 1875.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">The landmark “Civil
Rights Cases” of 1883, in which the US Supreme Court invalidated </span><b style="font-size: 13.5pt;">the Civil
Rights Act of 1975</b><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">, and its provisions for non-discrimination in public accommodations
is an excellent illustration. The Black Plaintiffs brought suit not against “politicians" or "government
bureaucrats” but against white owned businesses: hotels, theaters, transit
companies etc that had excluded them from facilities where whites were served, even though these businesses were supposedly open to the public. The white
business owners contended in court that they were exercising their private
property rights to discriminate against negroes, despite the Civil Rights Act of 1875, and
argued that the Act should be invalidated. The white court overwhelmingly </span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">agreed in an 8-1 decision, and stripped blacks
of these civil rights protections enacted by Congress in 1875. This pro segregation "activism" set the stage for
state and local regimes to enact a slew of “official” Jim Crow laws.. A decade later
the same court drove home the final nail of white privilege and advantage, and declared segregated “separate but equal” the official law of the land in <i>Plessy vs Ferguson</i>. This decision, which scholar Randall Kennedy calls "<i>a unique brand of American corruption and hypocrisy</i>" relegated blacks to over half a century of legal second class citizenship, and
paved the way for over a century of unrest and turmoil, including weakening of
America’s credibility overseas during the Cold War, on the civil rights issue.
Justice Harlan dissented, noting among other things that white companies like
railroads were common carriers that had an obligation to serve all the public equally. But the decision allowed them to continue flouting even such minimal standards, now with the blessing of the government.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"> </span><span style="color: red; font-size: 13.5pt;">j) At street level PRIVATE
white actors and businesses implemented discriminatory treatment, not only
without government sanction, but sometimes IN DEFIANCE OF government policies.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">At the national
level noted above, private entities flouted the Civil Rights Act of 1875, and
got the highest court to agree. At the street level, they continued the same
discriminatory practices despite contrary government mandates. The celebrated
1854 case of Elizabeth Jennings in </span><st1:state><st1:place><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">New York</span></st1:place></st1:state><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"> also illustrates the point in more detail
at street level. </span><st1:state><st1:place><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">New York</span></st1:place></st1:state><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"> had no laws requiring segregation, it was the streetcar
company that put segregation in place. Rushing to a church appointment, Jenning
was denied entrance on one "colored" car as being too full. Taking a
chance on entering the nearest car ("white") which had plenty of
room, Jennings was bodily assaulted by a white conductor and dragged from the
car for her "unconscionable" action. A white policeman summoned
unceremoniously gave her the boot in support of the white conductor. The black
community rallied behind Jennings and she sued the </span><span style="color: #cc0000; font-size: 13.5pt;">Third Avenue Rail Company</span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"> directly. It was PRIVATE company
policy that imposed segregation, not "government bureaucrats"
"interfering" with "free markets." A white judge ruling on
the case made a just finding- one not using any libertarian "free
association" theory. His jury instructions noted that under current law,
streetcars were common carriers, and as such had an obligation to serve ALL the
public. The jury agreed. Thus, ALL should be served by a common carrier, even
if white passengers wanted to "freely associate" only with
themselves. Jennings won $225 in court less than she hoped for, but the
decision only affected one company not the large number of such transport
operations in New York. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">It should also be
noted that this company policy ran "colored" cars, - an additional
cost- but still was doing brisk business, calling into question whether the
costs of discrimination were all that harmful to the white discriminators. In
fact, companies shifted costs to blacks, who were to use crowded
"colored" cars, and if not, were made to ride on the dangerous,
exposed outside steps and platforms of the "white" cars IF no white
customers objected, while paying the same fare as whites for lesser service.
Sowell's selective cherry-picking of course, a hallmark of his work, does not
mention such things, as they would tend to undermine his arguments. PRIVATE
"free market" white entities ALSO had incentives to segregate because
this is what their white clientele often demanded. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">Scholar Howard
Rabinowitz 1978, (</span><i style="font-size: 13.5pt;">Race Relations in the Urban South- 1865-1890</i><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">) shows in
detail that the post reconstruction era was not one of growing white goodwill
towards blacks but frequent hostility that sought white benefit and black
disadvantage. Even Blacks themselves under such leaders as Booker T Washington
pushed for a "separate but equal" type development (see</span><i style="font-size: 13.5pt;"> "Atlantic
Compromise" 1895</i><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">- before Plessy), to avoid the lash of white opposition,
and this accomodationism was indeed often supported by white Republican
"friends of the negro", who were only too happy to subsidize
Washington's segregated approach. Thus hostile or supremacist white sentiments,
expressed politically, were in place FIRST, and led later to the creation of
"official" Jim Crow laws. It is true that SOME streetcar companies
fought against these laws because they raised costs, (See for exsmple: </span><span style="font-size: 18px;"><i>Roback, J. (1986). The Political Economy of Segregation-The Case of Segregated Streetcars. The Jrnl Econ Hist. V46, I4, pp. 893 - 917 </i>) </span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">a</span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">) and it is also true that the record does not
show mass petitions or marches by ACTUAL white streetcar or railroad customers
clamoring to ban blacks, though some viciously attacked blacks like Frederick
Douglas for daring to ride alongside whites in railroad carriages. </span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">But nevertheless, there were streetcar operations that imposed segregation
without an order from the government, and whites expressed their desires</span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"> politically in the revanchavist
ferment that accompanied the end of Reconstruction, and these preferences were
put in place via Jim Crow laws, and court decisions like Plessy. </span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">Ironically, blacks like Jennings were winning a number of court <a href="https://www.civilrightsteaching.org/desegregation/transportation-protests/" target="_blank">victories </a>against private companies practicing segregation before the Supreme Court intervened on the side of segregationists. </span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">White business
enterprises ultimately reconciled themselves to the Jim Crow dispensation, and
found ways </span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">to shift or buffer costs.
Ultimately, it was government "interference" via the civil rights
struggle, not "free markets" that corrected and reversed government's earlier
injustices, often against bitter white opposition, and changed this across the
board for all black citizens. </span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">See (</span><i style="font-size: 13.5pt;">Blair L.
M. Kelley - Right to Ride_ Streetcar Boycotts and African American Citizenship
in the Era of Plessy v. Ferguson (2010).</i><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">) </span><span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">. In fact, supposedly
bad government action in some cases RESTORED “free markets” so that blacks and
whites could transact business freely and equally, over the opposition of
private white individuals or entities. </span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: red; font-size: 13.5pt;">k) Conclusion-
costs of discrimination did not and do not necessarily stop systematic
discrimination from rolling merrily along to the profit, advantage and benefit
of whites- the ultimate goal in view. </span><span style="color: red; font-size: 18px;">White businesses at times fought higher costs, but also, without government compulsion, willingly implemented discriminatory policies with the supposed “higher costs” and “lost profits.” </span><span style="color: red; font-size: 13.5pt;">Costs however can be shifted or profits still gained,
even as the system is tweaked to preserve the overall structure. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">This reality
calls into question Sowell's "free-market" superiority insinuations
as regards black progress. He asserts that white actors in the private and
public sectors had different incentives and constraints. This is true, but it
made little difference in view of the bottom line overall goal of
discriminatory systems- white benefit and advantage. An individual business
might oppose higher costs imposed by discriminatory government laws or
policies, but such costs can usually be shifted to system beneficiaries. Whites
historically for example are usually willing to pay higher prices for housing
in neighborhoods where the black presence is suppressed or minimized. Private
entities like real estate brokers or mortgage companies have often welcomed
this, as it means higher commissions and more profitable loan volumes for them.
The higher costs borne by white consumers turns out to be profitable for these
white private entities, who can and did turn around at a later time ro unload
older or less attractive housing stocks at premium prices, on minorities looking to move out of
their segregated zones. Both private and public sector white entities
engaged in extensive manipulation, deception, and sometimes even violence,
to achieve and maintain the overall goals of the system. And as shown above,
the incentives for discrimination often sprang not from "bureaucrats"
imposing laws, but from white cultural desires to suppress black progress, or
maintain the psychic benefits of whiteness. The system did not/does not have to
function perfectly, at all times and in all transactions, to work.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">The use of time
limited concessions to blacks- toleration of "out of place" work
until whites needed to reassert or reclaim profits or benefits, aided the white
cause. The use of discrimination as a way to build brands of white exclusivity
or status, as in some commercial establishments, also kept the privilege
machinery humming along. And the systematic lockout of blacks from decent
education or job opportunities, or the ability to acquire assets such as good homes, of course hindered their competitiveness and
ensured white advantage all down the line, for multiple generations. These
adjustments absorbed or fended off threats, while preserving the overall goal
of the system- white benefit, profit and privilege. Sowell's highlighting of
"lost profits" or "higher costs" due to discrimination is indeed
true under certain conditions, but time and again, in view of the larger
material benefits to whites, such losses, if any, were often gladly borne. And
on top of the material benefits, were the psychic benefits of whiteness- of NOT
being black. Being white brought with it a suite of privileges and benefits that reinforced the psychic rewards.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">The notion that
"free markets" would lead to a withering away of racial
discrimination in housing, credit, job and consumer markets is not borne out by
the overall record. Nor are some parts of various "taste for
discrimination" models, which posit that discrimination would eventually
disappear in an ideally competitive market because competition would make it
too costly. Unfortunately few such ideally competitive markets have ever
existed where blacks are concerned. In the real world, to the contrary, racial discrimination did not and will NOT disappear, where:</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"><b>(a)</b> controllers of the
overall system (whites) benefit from discrimination, <br /><b>(b</b>) substantial costs can be
shifted to the victims of discrimination (inferior goods and services foisted
on blacks), <br /><b>(c)</b> customers or clientele of the dominant group willingly pay more
in view of their greater overall system benefit and psychic benefits of
whiteness (hiring whites for all but the most menial jobs for example increases white
income, opportunity and happiness at being white),<br /></span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"><b>(d)</b> private entities can profit from the
shifted costs (like real estate brokers and mortgage lenders profiting from
both white and black price premiums) and <br /><b>(e)</b> </span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">discrimination
can be made additionally profitable in terms of brand exclusivity and status. Examples include a restaurant that gains prestige by keeping out "lesser breeds"-
i.e. blacks, or a real estate broker gaining higher commissions from
unloading lower quality housing on anxious black buyers, and/or gaining from
the higher premium whites were willing to pay for neighborhoods without or with
very few blacks. Far from discrimination "withering away" it was/is a
lucrative source of white profit in several ways.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">In short,
discrimination is not simply a matter of firms or </span><span style="font-size: 18px;">individuals</span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"> acting randomly in a market. It is an
entire system geared for white benefit, advantage and privilege. This reality
undermines Sowell's argument that the private sector was, or is such a good
alternative to government, or that racial discrimination will wither away due
to various costs.</span></p></div><div><br /></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhvg2BHt-Y4Qa6D1ov8g4k92n8WEGR9VIV3orsMyPJVz66JRyMhBbPejLz2xCjAQKsrs6FtiKJ6E4cS8h8YjbB8iGgJF7_ndU791Ef3KQ_3e5cYys4tL2ZaPivP1qqKsp-2j1paDazpz08u/" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img data-original-height="905" data-original-width="647" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhvg2BHt-Y4Qa6D1ov8g4k92n8WEGR9VIV3orsMyPJVz66JRyMhBbPejLz2xCjAQKsrs6FtiKJ6E4cS8h8YjbB8iGgJF7_ndU791Ef3KQ_3e5cYys4tL2ZaPivP1qqKsp-2j1paDazpz08u/w286-h400/image.png" width="286" /></a></div><br /><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><b>As Harvard professor D.

Classic collective action explains these wages as a sort of monopoly profit. By forming a union that excluded black workers and by pushing employers to hire whites only, white railroad workers could drive up wages relative to their black and brown counterparts.<br />Employers also profited from discrimination in their fight against unions. By dividing the labor market in two, railroads maintained a ready-made stable of black strikebreakers perpetually on call to undercut the power of the white union. For railroad and workers alike, then, discrimination was win-win. And those benefits came at the expense of black workers, in the same way that cartels displace the costs of their profits onto someone else.</span>"<br /><span style="font-size: x-small;">--Daria Roithmayr. 2014.

First, the lock-in model highlights the profits that whites earned from racial exclusion during Jim Crow. Economics scholars have always assumed that racism would die out because discriminating was too costly. On the contrary, the lock-in model demonstrates that racism can pay off, and did so handsomely during Jim Crow. </span><br /><span style="color: blue;"><br /></span><span style="color: blue;">Chapters 2 and 3 describe the profit-maximizing behavior of Jim Crow 'racial cartels': - homeowners' associations, labor unions, political parties, school districts, and other groups that worked to generate monopoly profits by excluding competitors. By coordinating to keep the neighborhood pure, white homeowners' associations were able to keep for themselves the best houses, in the best neighborhoods, with the wealthiest neighbors. By excluding black and brown children from public schools, whites monopolized the best public education from themselves. By dividing the labor market into two racially identifiable segments, white unions earned the highest wages, in the most prestigious jobs. In the South, whites had a monopoly lock on political power for decades. As these chapters illustrate, during the era of Jim Crow, discrimination paid off quite well."</span><br /><span style="font-size: x-small;">--Daria Roithmayr. 2014.

<b>UPDATE:</b></div>
Assorted "<a href="http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2016/11/11/anti-trump-protesters-pepper-sprayed-demonstrations-erupt-across-us/93633154/" target="_blank">protests</a>" in Portland and elsewhere over Trump's election, with participants speaking in apocalyptic terms seem laughably overblown, and just plain childish. Get over it. The Don won fair and square. No "apocalypse" will happen. The man is just another politician. His heated rhetoric on the campaign trail now will now have to adapt to reality. Predictions? <br />
<br />
Trump is not for example going to build any massive "wall." Who's gonna spend
several billion on any "wall?" He will strengthen the existing fence
already in place, and beef up enforcement, and add some modest sections. On Obamacare he will slash
some parts and keep some- he is not going to eliminate the fundamental
concept of universal coverage. He told the <a href="http://www.wsj.com/articles/donald-trump-willing-to-keep-parts-of-health-law-1478895339" target="_blank">WSJ</a> for example, that he
would keep his word to consider retaining provisions that protect people
with pre-existing conditions and allow parents to keep children up to
26 on their plan . On "ISIS" he will not do anything much different
Obama fundamentally. Yeah bomb, and insert more Special Forces? That's
hardly earth-shattering stuff- its more of the same. Drone strikes?
Obama has ramped up drone attacks to huge levels way beyond Bush. What
else "new" or "different" Trump gonna do- send in another "surge" of
several hundred thousand troops? Get real.<br />
<br />
And he is not going to
be "deporting all Muslims." Anyone can see this is just junk rhetoric
to fire up "the base." Cut back Israeli influence? lol.. Netanyhu is his
good friend, so nothing earth-shattering expected there either. And who says his "Jerusalem as capital" was not merely a sop to throw to the right-wing fundie-pol types? Trade
deals? He will make a loud show and tweak some terms, but who says the
trend towards globalization will be significantly stopped? Cut back
significantly on outsourcing? Stop the continued automation and
"Googlization" of the economy, and commoditization of our private data?
Stop the race to the bottom economics favored by the new tech elites? Puhleeze..<br />
<br />
Immigration? Sure he will deport some with criminal
records but is this earth-shattering? Obama has made a massive number of
deportations of illegals, more than recent presidents. Re the financial
system- what's Trump gonna do- roll back the corrupt Wall Street
bankers and manipulators? In fact he wants to deregulate the financial
industry meaning the fat cats have even more room to maneuver and
manipulate. <br />

<br />
Naive high hopes for a "messiah" on the part of many of "the faithful" will in time be dashed, as they are ignored or fobbed off with symbolic "beads for the natives." Just ask black folk about would be "<a href="http://www.cnn.com/2015/11/27/us/obama-race-cnn-kff-poll/" target="_blank">messiahs</a>." Get over it people. Cut the hysterical tantrums and come back to reality. Now let's ask some other questions.<br />

<b>Original Post:</b><br />
A close election winds down as this post is written- with no clear winner yet declared, (polls in California and the West are three hours distant), but I see Trump as pulling out a victory. We wish him well, but here's one of the many questions that will likely arise as he takes (projected) office. Will he, like Ronald Reagan, fail to vigorously enforce anti-discrimination housing laws? As we saw in previous posts,<span style="color: blue;"> <a href="http://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2016/07/trump-properties-discriminated-against.html" target="_blank">Trump himself discriminated against black tenants</a></span>, on the basis of race. Such actions are still a reality in the housing market - circa 2016.<br />
<br />
The article below shows that a number of big lenders have settled lawsuits brought by cities for their discriminatory loan and financing practices that hurt minority customers. These discriminatory practices again demonstrate the deceptive narratives spun among many whites about <a href="http://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2015/08/how-obama-plays-upon-white-guilt-hilary.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: blue;">white "guilt"</span></a> and the alleged "resolution of civil rights issues" due to a number of laws passed in the 1960s. The narrative aims to dismiss or downplay continuing discrimination suffered by minorities, as whites double down on their wealth, and move, albeit more stealthily than in open Jim Crow days, to suppress or slow down minority access to resources and upward mobility. That was always the white game, (certain conscientious conservatives and progressives excluded), and minimal civil rights laws did not change it.<br />
<br />
Cities trying to use fair housing laws to sue for "spillover" damages due to discrimination, such as lost tax revenue, etc are working a legal stretch. The laws were set up for individuals to sue (laboriously). It was only until 20 years after the Fair Housing Act of 1968 that some real enforcement teeth were added- another demonstration of how whites have sandbagged and hobbled civil rights legislation over the decades. They never "gave anything away for free" to the culluds."Whether cities can get damages is a novel twist- though a few have already done so. Amounts are small- 10 million or so thus far. Here's the excerpt:<br />

<b>Supreme Court hears housing bias case involving Bank of America, Wells Fargo</b><br />
By Greg Stohr- November 2016.<br />
<br />
U.S. Supreme Court justices signaled they may divide over the ability of cities to use the Fair Housing Act to sue banks for discriminatory lending practices that contribute to urban blight.<br />
<br />
Hearing arguments in Washington as the country went to the polls to choose the next president, the high court grappled with a case that grew out of the subprime mortgage crisis.<br />
<br />
A federal appeals court read the Fair Housing Act as giving Miami the right to sue Bank of America Corp., Wells Fargo & Co. and Citigroup Inc. Miami says the banks targeted minorities for riskier and costly loans, leading to foreclosures that cost the city property-tax revenues and forced it to spend more on police and fire services.<br />
<br />
Some of the court’s liberal justices indicated through their questions that they would vote to let the cases go forward. Justice Elena Kagan suggested the dispute was at the heart of what the landmark 1968 law was designed to address.<br />
<br />
“Everything about this complaint is about racial segregation, it seems to me,” Kagan said.<br />
<br />
But two potential swing votes, Chief Justice John Roberts and Justice Anthony Kennedy, suggested they saw a need to limit the types of suits that could be filed under the law. Roberts called Miami’s injury “derivative.”<br />
<br />
“I don’t see how you can say that your loss of property taxes is a direct injury,” he told the city’s lawyer, Robert Peck.<br />
<br />
The Election Day argument was a relatively low-key affair, with Justices Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas asking no questions and Justice Stephen Breyer saying far less than usual. One possibility is that the shorthanded court could divide 4-4, an outcome that would let Miami press ahead without setting a nationwide precedent.<br />
<br />
Charlotte-based Bank of America and San Francisco-based Wells Fargo say Congress didn’t intend to allow private lawsuits by a plaintiff who wasn’t a victim of discrimination and whose interests are so far removed from the alleged wrongdoing.<br />
<br />
The banks’ lawyer, Neal Katyal, said the city was “borrowing someone else’s anti-discrimination interests.” Citigroup isn’t directly involved in the Supreme Court appeal.<br />
<br />
The Fair Housing Act says an “aggrieved person” may sue. In 2011 the Supreme Court interpreted similar language in the federal job-discrimination law to mean that only people within the law’s “zone of interests” could sue.<br />
<br />
Miami and the Obama administration say the 2011 decision left intact earlier rulings suggesting that the Fair Housing Act was drafted broadly. They say the only restrictions on who can sue come from the Constitution and its requirement that a plaintiff suffered an injury that a court would be able to redress.<br />
<br />
Similar suits have been filed around the country, including claims by Los Angeles and three Georgia counties.<br />
<br />
Peck told the court that the cities of Baltimore and Memphis, Tennessee, had settled similar claims for less than $10 million.<br />
<br />
“We not talking about huge sums of money,” he said.<br />
<br />
The cases are Bank of America v. Miami, 15-1111, and Wells Fargo v. Miami, 15-1112<br />

One interesting thought- assorted right wingers have since 2008 insisted that Obama was elected "because of his race" and because "white people felt guilty." That laughable propaganda trope was roundly debunked <a href="http://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2015/08/how-obama-plays-upon-white-guilt-hilary.html" target="_blank">here, where I show Obama got about the same amount of votes as previous white Dem candidates</a>. But if said right wingers think race is so important, why then isn't the election of Trump "because of his race" - that white voters voted for racialist reasons? I mean why are they not applying the same "race card reasoning" in reverse to their man in Washington? So far I haven't heard a peep from the usual suspects on these lines... And so it goes....<br />

<i>Discrimination? What discrimination?</i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<br />
A close election winds down as this post is written- with no clear winner yet declared, (polls in California and the West are three hours distant), but I see Trump as pulling out a victory. We wish him well, but here's one of the many questions that will likely arise as he takes (projected) office. Will he, like Ronald Reagan, fail to vigorously enforce anti-discrimination housing laws? As we saw in previous posts,<span style="color: blue;"> <a href="http://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2016/07/trump-properties-discriminated-against.html" target="_blank">Trump himself discriminated against black tenants</a></span>, on the basis of race. Such actions are still a reality in the housing market - circa 2016.<br />
<br />
The article below shows that a number of big lenders have settled lawsuits brought by cities for their discriminatory loan and financing practices that hurt minority customers. These discriminatory practices again demonstrate the deceptive narratives spun among many whites about <a href="http://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2015/08/how-obama-plays-upon-white-guilt-hilary.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: blue;">white "guilt"</span></a> and the alleged "resolution of civil rights issues" due to a number of laws passed in the 1960s. The narrative aims to dismiss or downplay continuing discrimination suffered by minorities, as whites double down on their wealth, and move, albeit more stealthily than in open Jim Crow days, to suppress or slow down minority access to resources and upward mobility. That was always the white game, (certain conscientious conservatives and progressives excluded), and minimal civil rights laws did not change it.<br />
<br />
Cities trying to use fair housing laws to sue for "spillover" damages due to discrimination, such as lost tax revenue, etc are working a legal stretch. The laws were set up for individuals to sue (laboriously). It was only until 20 years after the Houston Act of 196 that some real enforcement teeth were added- another demonstration of how whites have sandbagged and hobbled civil rights legislation over the decades. They mever "gave anything away for free to the culluds." Whether cities can get damages is a novel twist- though a few have already done so. Amounts are small- 10 million or so thus far. Here's the excerpt:<br />

<b>Supreme Court hears housing bias case involving Bank of America, Wells Fargo</b><br />
By Greg Stohr- November 2016.<br />
<br />
U.S. Supreme Court justices signaled they may divide over the ability of cities to use the Fair Housing Act to sue banks for discriminatory lending practices that contribute to urban blight.<br />
<br />
Hearing arguments in Washington as the country went to the polls to choose the next president, the high court grappled with a case that grew out of the subprime mortgage crisis.<br />
<br />
A federal appeals court read the Fair Housing Act as giving Miami the right to sue Bank of America Corp., Wells Fargo & Co. and Citigroup Inc. Miami says the banks targeted minorities for riskier and costly loans, leading to foreclosures that cost the city property-tax revenues and forced it to spend more on police and fire services.<br />
<br />
Some of the court’s liberal justices indicated through their questions that they would vote to let the cases go forward. Justice Elena Kagan suggested the dispute was at the heart of what the landmark 1968 law was designed to address.<br />
<br />
“Everything about this complaint is about racial segregation, it seems to me,” Kagan said.<br />
<br />
But two potential swing votes, Chief Justice John Roberts and Justice Anthony Kennedy, suggested they saw a need to limit the types of suits that could be filed under the law. Roberts called Miami’s injury “derivative.”<br />
<br />
“I don’t see how you can say that your loss of property taxes is a direct injury,” he told the city’s lawyer, Robert Peck.<br />
<br />
The Election Day argument was a relatively low-key affair, with Justices Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas asking no questions and Justice Stephen Breyer saying far less than usual. One possibility is that the shorthanded court could divide 4-4, an outcome that would let Miami press ahead without setting a nationwide precedent.<br />
<br />
Charlotte-based Bank of America and San Francisco-based Wells Fargo say Congress didn’t intend to allow private lawsuits by a plaintiff who wasn’t a victim of discrimination and whose interests are so far removed from the alleged wrongdoing.<br />
<br />
The banks’ lawyer, Neal Katyal, said the city was “borrowing someone else’s anti-discrimination interests.” Citigroup isn’t directly involved in the Supreme Court appeal.<br />
<br />
The Fair Housing Act says an “aggrieved person” may sue. In 2011 the Supreme Court interpreted similar language in the federal job-discrimination law to mean that only people within the law’s “zone of interests” could sue.<br />
<br />
Miami and the Obama administration say the 2011 decision left intact earlier rulings suggesting that the Fair Housing Act was drafted broadly. They say the only restrictions on who can sue come from the Constitution and its requirement that a plaintiff suffered an injury that a court would be able to redress.<br />
<br />
Similar suits have been filed around the country, including claims by Los Angeles and three Georgia counties.<br />
<br />
Peck told the court that the cities of Baltimore and Memphis, Tennessee, had settled similar claims for less than $10 million.<br />
<br />
“We not talking about huge sums of money,” he said.<br />
<br />
The cases are Bank of America v. Miami, 15-1111, and Wells Fargo v. Miami, 15-1112<br />

Previous posts have noted a number of tactics used by whites to sandbag or block black efforts in employment, housing and other areas, even as right wing conservatives deny their existence, and continue denying that there is much racism abroad. Interestingly enough, Presidential candidate Donald Trump was once sued by the federal government for racial discriminatory practices in his properties- blocking black tenant applications by use of racial "coding." A Daily Beast article notes the coding scheme in operation- black applications were marked with a "C" for "Colored" or a Number "9". But coding was not the only method. Other tactics such as quoting blacks inflated prices, using phony leases, or claiming no units were available were also deployed to sandbag blacks.<br />
<br />
Trump dismissed the charge and in his usual bombastic fashion counter-sued the federal government, a suit eventually dropped. Using the favorite tactic of racial coverup- "plausible denial" - Trump claimed "no knowledge" but at least 5 people working in his properties contradicted "the Donald's" denial. Per court documents unearthed in the Beast article:<br />

<br />
<span style="color: blue;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: blue;">"But according to other court documents from the suit, Thomas Miranda was not the only staffer who claimed to know of a secret racial code.</span><span style="color: blue;"><br /></span><span style="color: blue;"><br /></span><span style="color: blue;">According to the DOJ, a former super at Trump’s Highlander complex claimed that he would also attach a coded piece of paper to let the “central office” know that an applicant was black. He added that a number of supers in Queens used a “phony lease” to enable them to refuse apartments to people of color. The super’s assistant backed up his story about the code and said she was told, “Trump Management tries not to rent to black persons...</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: blue;">The DOJ said that Allan Gross, another rental agent, claimed that he, too, was aware of a code used “to designate which applicants were black or otherwise ‘undesirable.’”</span><span style="color: blue;"><br /></span><span style="color: blue;"><br /></span><span style="color: blue;">The DOJ alleged that former staffer Harry Schefflin, who worked at Trump’s Briarwick apartment complex in 1973, told government investigators that he was personally ordered to rent only to “Jews and executives” and to discourage blacks from renting. Schefflin said that Fred Trump and other agents of the company would use a racial code to indicate when a renter was black, marking the applications with a “No. 9.”</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;"><br /></span><span style="color: blue;">In addition to the alleged code, the lawsuit claimed other Trump employees had spoken of a host of nasty tactics to keep blacks from renting apartments—from supers telling prospective black applicants that the rental rates were substantially higher than they actually were, to keeping “a sham lease and check to be shown to black applicants.”</span><span style="color: blue;"><br /></span><span style="color: blue;"><br /></span><span style="color: blue;">One rental agent at Trump’s Tysens Park Apartments said that he’d been told by Fred Trump himself not to rent to blacks.</span><span style="color: blue;"><br /></span><span style="color: blue;"><br /></span><span style="color: blue;">Fred, he said, wished to “decrease the number of black tenants already residing at Tysens Park by encouraging black tenants to locate housing elsewhere.”</span><span style="color: blue;"><br /></span><br />

<span style="color: blue;"><br /></span><span style="color: blue;">“No Vacancy” For Blacks</span><span style="color: blue;"><br /></span><span style="color: blue;"><br /></span><span style="color: blue;">In its lawsuit, the DOJ listed more than half a dozen cases in which a black person would try to rent an apartment at a Trump-owned building and would be denied; but when a white person—often a “tester” from New York’s Urban League—would inquire about vacancies, they would allegedly get offered an apartment in the same building.</span><span style="color: blue;"><br /></span><span style="color: blue;"><br /></span><span style="color: blue;">Among the claims:</span><span style="color: blue;"><br /></span><span style="color: blue;"><br /></span><span style="color: blue;"> According to the DOJ, Alfred Hoyt, a black man, was told there were no two-bedroom apartments at Trump’s Westminster apartment complex in Brooklyn. His white wife, Sheila, was offered a two-bedroom apartment the very next day. They were admitted to the building after filing a complaint with the New York City Human Rights Commission.</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;"><br /></span><span style="color: blue;"> The DOJ claimed that Henrietta Davis, a black woman, tried to rent an apartment at the Fontainebleau in Brooklyn in 1972. She said she was told by the super that he had no authority to accept rental applications. And yet when Muriel Salzman, a white Urban League tester, went to the Fontainebleau directly after Davis, she was told that two apartments were free and she could rent either of them.</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;"><br /></span><span style="color: blue;"> According to the DOJ, just a week later, in 1972, Godfrey Jacobs—a black tester for the Urban League—was told there were no vacancies at the Beachaven Apartments in Sheepshead Bay. Yet George Sim Johnston, a white tester, was offered a rental at that building on the very same day.</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;"><br /></span><span style="color: blue;"> The DOJ alleged that Muriel Silberberg, a black employee of the New York Human Rights Commission, says she was told by a man named Paul Ziselman on March 10, 1973, that there were no one-bedroom apartments available in Trump’s Beachaven complex. Ziselman, who identified himself to Silberberg as a rental agent, allegedly later told Phyllis Spiro, a white employee of the Urban League, that he “followed a racially discriminatory rental policy at the direction of his superiors” and that very few “colored” people lived there.</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;"><br /></span><span style="color: blue;"> According to government investigators, Beverly Best, a black woman, tried to rent at the Beachaven complex in December of 1972.

In the meantime, Trump settled- entering into a consent decree with the federal government to clean up his act.

Trump however would not be alone as federal policy for decades supported such discrimination:<div><br /><div><span style="color: red;">"Literally, those authorized to make loans at banks would draw on a map a red line around a black community, and no one inside that red line could get a loan. Until 1949 the FHA also encouraged the use of restrictive covenants banning African Americans from given neighborhoods and refused to insure mortgages in integrated neighborhoods. Thanks to the FHA, no bank would insure loans in the ghetto, and few African Americans could live outside it.

<div style="text-align: left;">
But it does raise questions about the propaganda drumbeat of "racial innocence" used in many quarters, as well as claims that discrimination against blacks was "solved" by the passage of Civil Rights Laws. Given, as credible analyses above show, that "
<span style="color: blue;"> HUD studies have found that African Americans and Latinos are discriminated against in one of every five home-buying encounters and one in every four attempts to rent an apartment</span>," Trump's discriminatory practices, it could be argued, are quite in keeping with many segments of white America. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
But again, standard right wing propaganda insinuates, if not outright claims that such racist practices as noted above are "things of the past." As can be seen they are not. Another standard line is the "bad apple" argument- anomalies by individual bigots and so on. But as data above shows said practices have been systematic and deeply embedded. The end result is to ensure that blacks are denied equal access to the major source of wealth in the US, housing. Black families locked into substandard housing for example, or relegated to the least desirable properties thus are routed to a secondary track, while whites manipulate the system, flouting their own laws on the books to enhance, expand and consolidate their wealth. This is the true meaning of "racial reality" - though a massive and dishonest right wing propaganda drumbeat seeks to obscure it and deny it. None of the above of course means that a focus on the positive and positive efforts should not be the primary concern of groups or individuals, but let us not be naive.

<b>As noted in our "<a href="http://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2015/08/how-obama-plays-upon-white-guilt-hilary.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: blue;">white guilt</span></a>" series, white people don't feel much guilt about freezing blacks out of equal opportunities in housing. It took 20 years, as recently as 1988, to finally get significant enforcement teeth in the 1968 Civil Rights bill (</b>
<b>Open Housing)</b><b>, and even after that, racial discrimination in the housing market still remains a problem.</b><br />
<br />
The Civil Rights Act of 1964 is well known, as is the Voting Rights Act of 1965. But the third big victory of the King era, enacted in the ferment after his murder, is the Civil Rights Act of 1968 which deals heavily with banning discrimination in housing. Bottled up for years by white legislators, King's assassination finally sparked movement. The 1968 Act banned discrimination in housing, covering about 80% of the market. However it contained few enforcement provisions. HUD could take complaints and the Justice Department could file suit in cases of "wide patterns" of discrimination but few landlords would be so kind as to leave a paper trail showing "wide patterns". This primarily left laborious individual lawsuits- meaning every discrimination incident had to be met and filed as a separate court case. This cumbersome and costly arrangement, deliberately put in place by white legislators, ensured that progress would be painfully slow. It was only until 1988, 20 years after, than real enforcement muscle was introduced, as credible histories show. The book Waking from the Dream below gives a detailed analysis- for example- quote: :<br />
<br />
<span style="color: blue;">"The great legislative victory for the civil rights movement in 1968 is the last of the victories of the movement that King symbolizes, and it is more properly his legacy—more a result of his sacrifice—than the others. It may be that the nation’s memory has neglected that final act because it did not satisfy the high expectations of its supporters. It was imperfect in its effects: It took a Supreme Court decision in 1969 to remove its major exceptions. Women were not specifically protected by it till 1974. Enforcement was rarely available except via individual lawsuits—cumbersome and expensive for discrimination victims to pursue—until Congress strengthened the enforcement provisions in 1988."</span><br />
--David L. Chapelle. 2014. Waking from the Dream: The Struggle for Civil Rights in the Shadow of Martin Luther King Jr.<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">HUD enforcement in 1968 was deliberately limited to "conciliation" and the organization estimated that some 2 million cases of discrimination occurred every year. As one NY Time story puts it:</span><br />
<br />
<div itemprop="articleBody">
<span style="color: blue;">"The 1968 law, passed after the assassination of Dr.
Martin Luther King Jr., prohibits discrimination in the sale or rental
of housing on the basis of race, color, sex, religion or national
origin. Under the law, discrimination victims can complain to the
Department of Housing and Urban Development. But H.U.D.'s powers are
limited to ''conference, conciliation or persuasion.'' That hasn't
proved to be a very potent deterrent to discrimination. H.U.D. estimates
that two million cases occur each year. </span></div>
<span style="color: blue;">
</span><br />
<div itemprop="articleBody">
<span style="color: blue;">
Other legal paths are available. Individuals may
pursue their own cases in court. With expert testimony, some have won
millions in damage awards. The Justice Department can file suit if there
is evidence of a wide ''pattern or practice'' of discrimination. For
landlords and real estate agents, litigation can be a costly lesson in
discrimination. But for some victims, it is time-consuming and
jeopardizes the availability of desired housing. </span></div>
<span style="color: blue;">
</span><br />
<div itemprop="articleBody">
<span style="color: blue;"> That's why tougher enforcement is not only
desirable, but necessary. Under amendments passed by the Senate last
week, an administrative law judge would investigate any discrimination
charge, and, on finding discrimination, could award compensatory
damages, issue an injunction or impose civil fines of $10,000 to
$50,000. Either party could seek review by a Federal district judge. The
housing law would also be broadened to cover the disabled and families
with children."</span> </div>

<b><span style="color: red;">A history of housing discrimination struggle is instructive for it contradicts the false right wing narrative about race in America.,including the bogus "white guilt" meme. Of special note is how black veterans suffered, people who put their lives on the line for the United States yet could not get decent housing because of the color of their skin. It should also be noted that alleged "law and order" whites routinely ignored laws and court decisions on the books, so they could lock out the black veterans. "Law and order" only applied to blacks apparently. It took the traumatic aftermath of the assassination of Martin Luther King to finally get whites to give these veterans some justice. As one detailed historical summary puts it:</span></b><span style="color: red;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: red;"><b><br /></b></span>
<span style="color: blue;">"Despite Supreme Court decisions, including Shelley v. Kraemer (1948) and Jones v. Mayer Co. (decided in June 1968), barring the exclusion of African Americans or other minorities from certain sections of cities, race-based housing patterns were still in force by the late 1960s, and those who challenged them often met with resistance, hostility and even violence. Meanwhile, while a growing number of African-American or Hispanic members of the armed forces fought and died in Vietnam, on the home front their families had trouble renting or purchasing homes in certain residential areas because of their race or national origin. In this climate, organizations such as the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) the G.I. Forum and the National Committee Against Discrimination in Housing lobbied for new fair housing legislation to be passed..<br /><br />The proposed civil rights legislation of 1968 expanded on and was intended as a follow-up to the historic Civil Rights Act of 1964. The bill’s original goal was to extend federal protection to civil rights workers, but it was eventually expanded to address racial discrimination in housing. Title VIII of the proposed Civil Rights Act was known as the Fair Housing Act, later used as a shorthand description for the entire bill. It prohibited discrimination concerning the sale, rental and financing of housing based on race, religion, national origin and sex.<br /><br />In the Senate debate over the proposed legislation, Senator Edward Brooke of Massachusetts–the first African-American ever to be elected to the Senate by popular vote–spoke personally of his return from World War II and his inability to provide a home of his choice for his new family because of his race. In early April 1968, the bill passed the Senate, albeit by an exceedingly slim margin, thanks to the support of the Senate Republican leader, Everett Dirksen, which defeated a southern filibuster. It then went to the House of Representatives, from which it was expected to emerge significantly weakened; the House had grown increasingly conservative as a result of urban unrest and the increasing strength and militancy of the Black Power movement.<br /><br />On April 4–the day of the Senate vote–the civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr. was assassinated in Memphis, Tennessee, where he had gone to aid striking sanitation workers. Amid a wave of emotion–including riots, burning and looting in more than 100 cities around the country–President Lyndon B. Johnson increased pressure on Congress to pass the new civil rights legislation.. Since the summer of 1966, when King had participated in marches in Chicago calling for open housing in that city, he had been associated with the fight for fair housing. Johnson argued that the bill would be a fitting testament to the man and his legacy, and he wanted it passed prior to King’s funeral in Atlanta. <br /><br />Despite the historic nature of the Fair Housing Act, and its stature as the last major act of legislation of the civil rights movement, in practice housing remained segregated in many areas of the United States in the years that followed. From 1950 to 1980, the total black population in America’s urban centers increased from 6.1 million to 15.3 million. During this same time period, white Americans steadily moved out of the cities into the suburbs, taking many of the employment opportunities blacks needed into communities where they were not welcome to live. This trend led to the growth in urban America of ghettoes, or inner city communities with high minority populations that were plagued by high unemployment, crime and other social ills.<br /><br />In 1988, Congress passed the Fair Housing Amendments Act, which expanded the law to prohibit discrimination in housing based on disability or on family status (pregnant women or the presence of children under 18). These amendments brought the enforcement of the Fair Housing Act even more squarely under the control of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), which sends complaints regarding housing discrimination to be investigated by its Office of Fair Housing and Equal Opportunity (FHEO)."</span><span style="color: red;"><b><br /></b></span><br />

Victim of housing bias- not white enough...
</div>
<br />
<span style="color: red;"><b>Lest the reader naively think that the problem was "solved" by legislation in 1968 or 1988, the brutal fact of American life is that housing discrimination against people of color is still a reality. The reality is that much white bias and racism never really went away after the Civil Rights era. It simply went underground, and became more sophiscated and subtle. </b></span>The article below, shows that after almost another 20 years biased white people are still at it. The "colored" or "tainted" family in question was denied housing. But when a white "tester" couple applied for the same housing at the same place, they were quickly accepted. Meanwhile the "colored" family was frozen out. To refocus on our theme herein, if there was all this white "<a href="http://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2015/09/guilt2-media-collaborates-with-guilt.html" target="_blank">guilt</a>" about black people, how come white people are still discriminating so much against them in housing? Oh to be sure, the landlord below did not have "NO NEGROES" signs posted. Things these days are a little more subtle. But one wonders- where is all this alleged "white guilt" and so-called "favoritism" showed towards black people? The case of white bias in housing illustrates the mendacious propaganda and hypocrisy engaged on by white conservatives, right wingers and even some liberals. QUOTE:<br />
<br />
"<span style="color: blue;">Four years later, Rembis still gets emotional when she talks about what the testers found. "This part is really hard," she said, her voice breaking. "This part is really hard. The black family and the white family had the same income, the same credit history, and the black family had the least number of kids. They wouldn't even let them see the house. They wouldn't return their phone calls." The white family, the testing showed, was called back immediately and invited to see the house. The Rembis family applied to rent this 3,000-square-foot house in Hudson, Mich., but was denied, according to HUD, because Claire Rembis is part black. What happened to the Rembis family isn’t an isolated instance of a landlord flouting the 1968 Fair Housing Act. It’s a rare case of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development actually investigating and filing formal charges. Today, federal authorities filed a complaint against the owners of the property and proposed to settle the case with a $12,500 fine to be paid to the Rembis family, according to a Justice Department official. The proposed settlement also calls for Paula and David French to undergo training in following the fair housing law. Attempts to reach the Frenchs’ attorney were unsuccessful.<br /><br />Few civil rights laws are more routinely defied than the ban on housing discrimination. HUD studies have found that African Americans and Latinos are discriminated against in one of every five home-buying encounters and one in every four attempts to rent an apartment. Only a scant few of these incidents ever come to the attention of authorities. In 2010, HUD and the National Fair Housing Alliance, reported that HUD, state, local and private groups received about 29,000 complaints from people alleging discrimination for a wide variety of reasons — including race, familial status, disability and national origin. About two-thirds were handled by private attorneys and non-profits which settled cases and, in some instances, filed civil law suits.<br /><br />The remaining 10,000 went to state, local and federal agencies which together filed only 700 formal charges of discrimination in 2010. That year HUD found reasonable cause to believe discrimination based on race or national origin occurred in just 11 cases. The Department of Justice filed 29 cases — the lowest number since 2003."</span><br />

<i><b>Trump might generate" enough for victory.. </b></i><br />
<br />
It is also interesting that white working-class voters, the segment of the population that historically is the most OPENLY opposed to fair housing laws, backs Trump's presidential run heavily. If Trump follows the example of former president Ronald Reagan, housing enforcement will be cut back, just as Reagan gutted the EEOC and other enforcement mechanisms against employment discrimination.
Reagan's "race coded" message strategy played well in that era, and Trump's "anger base" may likewise yield profitable results. In 2012, the white low-enders voted for Romney by a margin of 18 points. In 2016's pre-presidential primaries and polls- they expand this support for Trump. Should Trump generate enough of this "angry white loser" vote - to paraphrase the sympathetic author of the recent "Hillbilly Elegy" (see <a href="http://nypost.com/2016/07/30/why-white-trash-americans-are-flocking-to-donald-trump/" target="_blank">link</a>) - he just might offset enough minority and liberal votes to secure victory. <br />
<br />
As noted in previous posts, these <a href="http://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2014/05/deteriorating-state-of-white-america.html" target="_blank">declining whites</a> are worried, but is salvation via "the Don?" The same rich billionaire that rails against investment overseas weakening American jobs for example, has himself been a significant overseas investor per the conservative <a href="http://www.forbes.com/sites/stuartanderson/2015/08/17/trump-the-hypocrite-investing-overseas-fine-for-him/#2d063c6c936b" target="_blank">Forbes</a> magazine. A "coded race bait" strategy is an excellent means for obscuring such contradictions, especially since the 2016 vote can signify a "take back" from "the cullud" Obama in the White House. What better diversionary opportunity? Its a perfect two-fer for those who grasp the "code"- cutback on programs that help the culluds, and get rid of the cullud leader in Washington. Oh and by the way, please don't mention the <a href="http://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2015/06/despite-much-more-wealth-than-blacks.html" target="_blank">relatively high levels of welfare whites collect</a> despite their having massively more wealth and income than blacks. But whether Trump will be the white low-ender's long-sought savior, or turns out to be an opportunistic politician that, relegates the "white trash" to the curb after victory, remains to be seen. If "the loyal base" is ignored after election time or fobbed off with chump change, many blacks have some experience with such things (including wou;d-be "messiahs,") and may indeed say- "welcome to the club."<br />
<br />
Note: Nothing above constitutes an "endorsement" for Trump's general election opponent- Hilary Clinton.<br />

But why
aren't people outside the echo chamber surprised? <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This post looks at his new 2016 book <b>"Stealing
America." </b>It is a laugher. Exposed for his own corruption and adultery, as
documented at his trial, D'souza attempts to lay the groundwork for a comeback
with a new package of propaganda and white lies - a laughable attempt to
"spin" his own corruption and exposure by playing the "prison
redemption" card, and presenting himself as some sort of
"martyr." <span style="color: red;">In this new spin package, D'souza had this supposed epiphany by talking to the cons while he was incarcerated. You see homes,</span> they told him some stuff
about gangs, and presto- our chap D'souza had the blinding insight that "criminal
gangs" can be likened to how "the liberals" (insert other
enemies here..:) operate. Dang! Who woulda thunk the cons were blessed with
such wit and wisdom?</div>

<b>Where these hardcore cons supposed to be homes?</b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><o:p> </o:p></b>But right off the bat D'souza's "redemption spin"
fails. He says that his "experience with criminal gangs" opened up
his eyes to the criminality of "the liberals." One cannot help but
fall to the floor laughing. For one thing, a panty-waist like D'souza got an
easy ride. He
served his sentence in a light security "confinement center" in <st1:place><st1:placename>San
Diego</st1:placename> <st1:placetype>County-</st1:placetype></st1:place> at which he did not even have to spend the entire day, but checked in at night for 8 hours. He was then free to leave- the rest of the day was his. And he served a
mere 8 months- a slap on the wrist, after which he had to do some light duty community
service, and pay a piddling fine - chump change for a man raking in hundreds of thousands every year via his books and videos. It is not a venue crawling with hard-core "criminal gangs."
Hell, the place seems like one of those celebrity prisons where affluent shallow white types like Paris Hilton go to serve their "sentences." The picture of some grizzled wise guy or hardcase gang-banger pulling
D'souza aside for "conferencing and commiseration" in said "<st1:place><st1:placename>Community</st1:placename>
<st1:placename>Confinement</st1:placename> <st1:placetype>Center</st1:placetype></st1:place>"
is totally ludicrous. Right off the bat, D'souza's "prison epiphany"
fails the smell test.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>The easy ride- coddling wrongdoers?</b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
What is ironic is that the right wing D'souza himself has railed
against "coddling" lawbreakers and criminal justice leniency, but turns out he himself benefited
from "coddling" with an easy-to-serve sentence, at a wrist slap venue, escaping two years of
jailtime with REAL gang-bangers. Yet with such an easy sentence, the hypocrite whines about "persecution." Also ironic- it was the same
D'souza who rails against "irresponsible blacks" that himself was
caught out in conduct grossly irresponsible, including not only his bribery
scheme, but cheating on his wife, and on top of that, taking his mistress to a Christian conference. All of these are well documented at his
trial, and elsewhere.<br />
<br />
Even more telling,
D'souza
who has railed against "a sense of entitlement" by "the liberals," blacks and other enemies, is himself a smug seeker of entitlement favor. As reported in several media outlets, he requested "a summer break" from his community service duties- teaching ESL kids at a local private school. Whoa! Tough duty bwoy! <span style="color: red;"> "With respect to [the] request that Mr. D'Souza's community service hours be `waived' from June 1, 2015, until July 13, 2015, the request is respectfully denied.. The short explanation is, as all criminal defendants are aware, that we don't provide `summer breaks' in these circumstances,</span>" federal judge Berman wrote. <br />
<br />
Instead of finding an alternative means of performing community service when the school let out for the summer, D’Souza had his parole officer petition the court for a “summer break.” Rather lazy of you, eh old chap- you who has railed against "lazy" blacks. Why are YOU trying to get out of your own obligations? Interestingly (and it illustrates not only Dsouza's sense of entitlement but also his vanity), the probation officer included a copy of a Vanity Fair profile in the "summer break" request.- as if that puff piece was supposed to impress. To which the judge sardonically responded: <span style="color: red;">“the court has no immediate reaction other than the article suggests several fertile areas of discussion during Mr. D’Souza’s required therapeutic counseling.”</span> Sho nuff... Perhaps Dsouza thinks this is India where some puffery and influence can grease the skids, eh? Now what does this say about Dsouza's own invocation of "<a href="http://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2014/01/we-need-rational-racism-proponent.html" target="_blank">rational racism</a>" as regards how certain minorities are viewed? The judge ordered counseling to continue because D'souza not only displays arrogance but seems to be unaware that he has done anything wrong. Mayhaps a little counseling with that non-summer break might help..<br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;">http://www.salon.com/2015/05/06/dinesh_dsouzas_request_for_a_summer_break_from_community_service_gets_slapped_down_by_federal_judge/</span><br />
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br />
Interestingly enough, D'souza copped a guilty plea at trial, when the government was about to put his wife Dixie on as a rebuttal witness. According to Dixie, she was never given a chance to explain her role or clear her name- the illegal contributions D'souza made in her name were apparently done without her knowledge, including she says, forging of her signature, and repeatedly lying to her about the cash. No wonder the Indian copped! Dixie wrote a letter to the court afterward, in an attempt to set the record straight, amid a barrage of falsifications and misrepresentations by D'souza, to which she was given no opportunity to respond. I have to admire how she stands up for herself. She notes that $30,000 of the family's money was given away. Hell hath no fury like a woman whose family budget has been raided! According to Dixie, D'souza also used his mistress, (<i>who herself is married it turned out later- highlighting <b>another lie</b> that she was D'souza's "fiancee"</i>) as a front to launder the illegal contribution- $10,000 of the family's money. You can read her statement to the court <a href="http://www.thesmokinggun.com/sites/default/files/assets/dixiedsouzaletter.pdf" target="_blank">here</a>:<br />

<b>Whining the "victim" card..</b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The second thing that stands out bout this book, aside from
the distorted "spin," is how D'souza continues whining. Constantly
trying to minimize his own culpability, he keeps playing the "victim"
card- oh dear- the heroic teller of truths, unjustly persecuted by
"politically correct" forces.. LOL.. Only D'souza's echo chamber of
acolytes or gullible flunkies buys this rubbish. He tried the same "victim card" approach
at his trial and drew a sharp rebuke from the judge who noted he was long on
portraying himself as a "victim" but short on acknowledging remorse
or responsibility for his actions. The judge dismissed D'souza's claims of
political prosecution as whining, and rebuked him repeatedly for his
self-serving explanations of the behavior he had pled guilty to. The judge even
quoted from a letter to the court from Mr. D’Souza’s white ex-wife, Dixie D’Souza, in
which she said he had a “flawed character and lack of truthfulness” and accused
him of physically abusing her. (NY Times- D’Souza Avoids Prison in Campaign

<b>Yes "the liberals" can be gangsters but how come
we don't hear about conservative "gangstas"?</b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
But this is typical D'souza, a vain, self-serving
distorter of the truth. His book is along the same intellectually dishonest lines, just as his book: "America- Imagine A World Without Her" is similarly dishonest. In "America" for example he claims that Obama was elected due to "white guilt." This laughable bit of rubbish, eaten up by the dull hordes of the right as "the truth" was <a href="http://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2015/08/how-obama-plays-upon-white-guilt-hilary.html" target="_blank">debunked in detail earlier</a>- where it was pointed out- Obama received about the same number of votes as previous white Dem politicians- like Clinton or Carter. White people did not go out of their way to vote for him more, nor apparently were they impressed by the hapless "grizzly" Sarah Palin and John McCain the right wing put up as alternatives. But D'souza is a master at dealing in rubbish.<br />
<br />
In "Stealing America" he tries yet more of the same shell game, attempting to drive home the claim as he writes that due to this alleged "epiphany"-
the current administration is essentially just a criminal machine/gang,
running things mostly to benefit themselves & their masters (bankers/corporate
globalist elitists). Hilary will continue the same "racket" he "learned." Whooo... What he doesn't mention is that conservatives
themselves are quite skilled at gangsterism- and indeed said conservatives were
at the forefront of, or cheered along the weakening of government regulations
designed to keep financial and other "gangsterism" in check. It was
under his hero Ronald Reagan for example that a huge wave of such deregulation
began, a trend that continued on into the George W Bush administration, as
detailed studies such as (<span style="color: red; font-size: 11.5pt;">Thomas O.
McGarity- Freedom to Harm: The Lasting Legacy of the Laissez Faire Revival-2013</span><span style="font-size: 11.5pt;">) demonstrate. This weakening was one of the key
components that led to the crash of 2007-2008- which by the way was accompanied
by a bailout package that was quite generous to the financial gangsters-
proposed initially by Bush. But none of this gets much ink in D'souza's
distorted world.</span></div>

<b>Indian D'souza himself benefited from allegedly "unneeded" Civil
Rights Laws or rulings- like freedom from segregation and freedom to
marry his white wife, something forbidden before "unneeded" civil rights
laws and supporting court decisions.</b> <br />
<br />
The Indian D'souza may not even have been allowed to become a citizen at
one time in America. In 1923 the US Supreme Court ruled that Asian
Indians were not eligible for
citizenship, stripping several naturalized Indians of citizenship. A
1922
federal law stipulated that women who married aliens ineligible for
citizenship would lose theirs- provisions not lifted until the 1940s.
Had he lived in America just 4 decades prior to his arrival he and his white wife might have been non-citizens. The
1921 and 1924 immigration law set numerical limits but only for Europeans. Other non-whites were banned. The book by Ian Haney 1996- <span style="color: blue;">White by law:
the legal construction of race</span>" sets out the dismal facts in
detail. It took decades of struggle, suffering and sacrifice to get such
things reversed. <br />
<br />
But along comes the hypocrite Dsouza to benefit off the
backs of those who suffered, even as he dismisses civil rights
protections as "unneeded" directly or by implication. Since he arrived
on American shores in 1978, well AFTER all the messy and ugly business
of the "unneeded" Civil Rights law he dismisses, he and white wife get
to stay in any public accommodations he chooses, can pretty much buy
housing where they want, and get to send their kids pretty much to the
schools they want, without being blocked and sandbagged by racist
Realtors, restaurant owners or bureaucrats. Furthermore, he and Dixie
lived in Virginia, a state that once imprisoned or threatened to
imprison interracial couples for the crime of "miscegenation." D'Souza
gets to have to both ways, He can dismiss Civil Rights laws as
"unneeded," because as an "honorary white" immigrant coming after the
fact, he can enjoy all the benefits of that which he dismisses, and never had to worry like
say, interracial couple Mildred Loving and her husband- miscegenation
"criminals" sentenced to jail or exile.<br />

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 11.5pt;">His nickname among certain
press journalists "Distort Denewsa" is apt. Aside from his so-called
"epiphany" during which he allegedly "learned" from

<span style="font-size: 11.5pt;">One thing that doesn't make

-"The End of Racism" - where be advocated re-appealing key provisions of the
Civil Rights Act of 1964. He has never retracted this and his hypocritical
posturing that he had some sort of "special insight" into "race

the "special insight" he gains is due to "time spent" with

<b><span style="font-size: 11.5pt;">A scammer by any other
name- himself a beneficiary of "special preferences" ...<br /><br /></span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11.5pt;">D'souza organizes his
chapters to talk of "scams"- Chapter 5 the reparations scam, Chapter
6 the greed & inequality scam etc. Most of these chapters are simply repackaged talking points, presented with the usual snark and cherry picked anecdotes. But it really a "scam" to question the high levels of CEO pay especially involving companies they have run into trouble? Is it a "scam" to question the favoritism shown of the bankers and financiers who got bailed out in 2008/2009? Is it a "scam" to question police misconduct including pervasive falsification of arrest reports when certain things happen? Reasonable people can certainly disagree on the issues, but why are so many areas of social policy waved aside as a "scam," save as a propaganda tactic to dismiss having to address the evidence or engage in honest debate? </span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11.5pt;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11.5pt;">Reparations for example are opposed by prominent liberals including ex-President Obama, scholar Michael Eric Dyson, historian Henry Louis Gates etc., all of whom are black liberals or progressives, and the black community is itself divided over the issue. So where are these "scams" being pushed by such "liberals"?</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11.5pt;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11.5pt;">Dsouza reserves much rhetoric for being "agin" special "preferences" but as already noted above, "preferences" are quite beneficial to certain whites. Why is there so little in-depth discussion of that aspect? Ironically D'souza himself is the beneficiary of special
"affirmative action" preferences. He was appointed
"scholar" at prestigious Hoover Institute at Stanford for example,
despite having no serious scholarly publication, or peer reviewed article
published, and only having a BA in English. He was appointed president of
prestigious private </span><st1:place><st1:placename><span style="font-size: 11.5pt;">Kings</span></st1:placename><span style="font-size: 11.5pt;"> </span><st1:placetype><span style="font-size: 11.5pt;">College</span></st1:placetype></st1:place><span style="font-size: 11.5pt;"> despite no experience in academic administration, or

he served as Senior Domestic Policy Analyst under Reagan without a shred of
serious policy training. In fact D’Souza, the political “expert,” has no
training whatsoever in social science. Moreover, he has been appointed to two
research institute positions without a single peer- reviewed essay or
publication. And, perhaps not surprisingly, he is treated as a serious
intellectual in the media and publishing world despite the remarkable lack of
research that goes into his books.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></div>

reality, D’Souza has little in the way of credentials or training to merit any
of his promotions... If Dinesh D’Souza were not East Indian, he would simply
have no role to play for the Right: there would be no White House credentials,
no appointments as “scholar,” and no press."</span></div>

Oh by the way- D'souza as seen previously had some kind things to say about "<a href="https://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=686085999190798340#editor/target=post;postID=5311154920881729211;onPublishedMenu=allposts;onClosedMenu=allposts;postNum=31;src=postname" target="_blank">rational racism</a>" - but he didn't need special insight from "criminal gangs" to draw his conclusions. Bottom line- if you want good entertainment by a self-serving fibber and distorter, this book is for you. If you want a standard
rehash of right wing talking points, cheered along by an echo chamber of
"the faithful" then this book is certainly for you. If not, skip it. Note this review does not apply to other works where D'souza seems more sincere such as his books on Christianity- but hypocrisy and mendacity not sincerity seem more to mark this one. Perhaps his polemic should be called "Stealing Credibility."</div>

<b><span style="color: red;">DSouza's personal background is relevant because he himself references it on several occasions- implying special insight, he thinks black government employment is "parasitical" (but not employment of white people by government) , and he wants to roll back the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Dang shame that a black man can eat his hamburger in peace next to some white people...</span></b><br />
<b><br /></b>
<b>The brown man with the "special racial insight." </b>On several occasions Dsouza references himself as having some sort of special insight into racial matters and discrimination, as in his 1991 book "Illiberal Education" and in appearances on media shoes such as the MacNeil/Lehrer NEwshour (June 18, 1991) where he specifically points to his Indian background and insinuates how it gives him some sort of special insight into America's racial situation. See page 22- Illiberal Education, where he talks about being from India and how he got involved due to his background in this heterogeneous society. On the MacNeil/Lehrer appearance he opines that America is becoming a multiracial society and the whole issue is "transcending black and white" again implying that he has some sort of special insight because of this "diverse" background - the straight-talking minority guy who says things others dare not say. A self-flattering picture indeed, but one that raises its own questions.<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>Oh those "parasitical" Negroes working for government- but white people doing the same - hey, you're OK.</b> In 1996's "The End of Racism" he condemns high levels of black employment in government as "parasitical", saying nary a word about high levels among whites, like white southerners, or groups like the white Irish, who fed and feed extensively from the government trough, and indeed used their control of municipal governments to discriminate against other groups. Indeed, as late as the early WW2 era, fully ONE-THIRD of the white Irish were working for government. As historians Bayor and Meager- 1996 show- quote:<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: blue;">"As a consequence, the public sector employed a full
one-third of first, second and third-generation Irish Americans in 1930
compared with just 6 percent in 1900. This patronage helped produce a heavy
concentration of Irish in jobs on the fire and police departments and in
municipally owned subways, streetcars, waterworks and port facilities. Many of
the city's Irish middle class worked on the public payroll, especially in the
public schools, and thousands of others labored in construction jobs tied to
city expenditures. For second-generation Irish-American women, jobs as schoolteachers
were the most sought-after career. Such patronage policies would help to bind
the Irish working class and much of the middle class Tammany Hall for another
generation."</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
--Bayor and Meagher 1996. The <st1:state><st1:place>New York</st1:place></st1:state>
Irish, p. 313</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
Looks like white people are doing pretty well as far as government checks. But only blacks are dismissively singled out by D'souza on this score. Predictably, he also does not mention the high levels of government employment in his own native India, nor the high levels of government employment among white women, like his wife Dixie. It is only blacks who are targeted as the "parasites" never whites, and certainly not white women like his wife. <br />
<br />
<br />
<b>The brown man also wants to roll back the Civil Rights Act of 1964- even though he himself benefited nicely by it.</b> In his
1996 book "The End of Racism" he advocates just such a course- page 544- quote: <span style="color: blue;">"Am
I calling for a repeal of the Civil Rights Act of 1964? Actually, yes. The law
should be changed so that its nondiscrimination provisions apply only to
government."</span>
<br />
<br />
The fact that this self-styled observer with supposed special insight on "diversity" would roll back key provisions (equal treatment from all serving the public) of this critical legislation, provisions in public accommodation that even conservative Republican presidents said needed to be fixed to improve America's overseas standing and to affirm America's commitment to equality for all, and from which he himself and his wife have benefited, testifies to immigrant D'souza's hypocrisy and lack of understanding of some of the deepest threads of America's racial history.<br />
<br />
It is easy for Dsouza to speak breezily about "unneeded" legislation when you benefit from it, and never had to live under constant harassment and stigma for over a century. Arriving in America in 1978, Dsouza was/is the beneficiary of over a century of civil rights struggle. It is relatively easy for him to speak dismissively of civil rights- he reaps the benefits while decrying the vehicle. The work of removing barriers was already done when D'souza arrived on US soil. He was free to board any public transportation and take any properly available seat, free to buy property in the neighborhood of his choice, free to check into any hotel, free to eat at any restaurant, free to send his kids to local schools (D'souza arrived after legal battles forced an end to school segregation in Arizona for example and was thus free to attend the school of his choice), and free to marry and take around his white wife, and enjoy all of the above with her, without official harassment or criminal charge due to race, or being denied the above benefits or continually harassed by private transactors because of his race. It is doubtful for example if he had to undergo the indignity of being turned away, frozen out, or denied service when he honeymooned with his wife, or took her to a restaurant, or tried to buy their first house. Aside from the fact that under earlier Arizona law, D'souza as a "Mongolian" could not have legally married his Caucasian wife, discriminatory practices by private transactors in restaurants, housing, public accomodations and other venues against non-whites were common in Arizona prior to the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and subsequent years of enforcement. Perhaps as a self-styled "honorary white," reaping the protection of the very law he dismisses, Dsouza has the privilege of never having to worry.<br />
<br />
It is also curious that D'souza, who married said white woman, faced the objections of her parents, who did not want the girl to marry an Indian. Dsouza says he was hurt, but like a true "honorary white," considers the objection to be "ethnocentrism" not "racism". But again, due to "unneeded" Civil Rights legislation, D'souza can get away with it, and build a comfortable life for his wife free of private harassment, persecution and significant discrimination, unlike interracial couples who faced jail sentences, and vicious legal and extra-legal harassment, including physical assault and murder. But hey, maybe what they faced was mere "ethnocentrism."<br />

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
This is a review of Shelby Steel's recent book "Shame."
Overall, Steele serves up a disingenuous lightweight tome heavy on personal
anecdote but short on in-depth analysis. The book seems basically a retread of
his 2007 book "White Guilt" but with more personal details. This
rehashed tome also fails, and does so on 6 counts.</div>

<b>1) STEELE STUCK IN THE PAST WITH STALE, EVEN BOGUS ARGUMENTS: </b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Much of his analysis is standard conservative boilerplate on
the evils of liberalism, boilerplate we have all heard and read about for well
nigh 2 decades. He feels "liberals" are stuck in the past, using <st1:country-region><st1:place>America</st1:place></st1:country-region>'s
racial sins to grab power. But some of Steele's own arguments also seem "stuck in the
past," like an old curmudgeon steadfastly banging his cane on the front
porch, as he recites long debunked "truths."</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Affirmative action" for example has been watered down
to trivial proportions for well over a decade- from limits or restrictions
imposed by courts, to citizen initiatives like California's Prop 209 which took
place in 1996, <b><span style="color: red;">OVER 20 YEARS AGO</span></b>. Set aside programs have been much watered
down- since the 1980s both by legislative and executive action and by court
cases such as Adarand and Croson (circa 1989 and 1995), over 2 decades ago. The
notion that "the liberals" are somehow throwing <st1:country-region><st1:place>America</st1:place></st1:country-region>
into a "crisis" of using these long hollowed out policies as a
mechanism to grab power is dubious.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
And the flip side is that conservatives may be cynically
using such long weakened and ineffective policies and alleged "white
suffering" under "quotas" as a talking point, and mobilization
mechanism for their own purposes-<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>to
keep their "base" in a perennial state of indignation. Furthermore
CONSERVATIVE scholars like his fellow black conservative Thomas Sowell has
shown that AA is not much responsible for black economic advance, which is a
long-standing trend since the 1950s. Steele and other conservatives know this
yet they still keep pushing the same bogus propaganda line re "affirmative
action." - like Ann Coulter in her recent book "Mugged."</div>

<b>2) STEELE LAMENTS "POLARIZATION" BUT CURIOUSLY
SKIPS OVER CONSERVATIVE POLARIZATION TACTICS. </b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Let's look at such tactics- take welfare. Are "the liberals" using government programs like "welfare"
as a mechanism to "grab" power? This old, stale charge is so laughably
out of date that it doesn't deserve comment, yet for Steele, and other
conservative dinosaurs, it is a virtual article of faith. Indeed several polls
of white Americans seem them clinging to the notion that most black people are
on welfare, when in fact only about 14% of black Americans receive AFDC. You
wouldn't know this though from the barrage of right wing propaganda. And are
"the culluds" eating up more and more welfare by ye olde hardworking
white Amurricans? So it would seem according to the white right-wing propaganda mills, but
in fact when adjusted for inflation welfare benefits have actually DECLINED in
the 1980s and 1990s. Indeed it was a liberal Democrat, Clinton that enacted
welfare reform that reduced the rolls on into the 2000s. Furthermore, as several
studies show <b><a href="https://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2015/06/despite-much-more-wealth-than-blacks.html" target="_blank">states with higher proportions of poor black recipients gave relatively LESS welfare than states with higher proportions of whitebeneficiaries</a></b>- with whites being favored overall with more generous benefits-
even though the blacks were poorer. (Durr and Hill 2006- Race, Work, and Family
in the Lives of African Americans). </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
So with less people on welfare, with welfare benefits
declining, and with white people deriving more relative benefit from welfare,
why do conservatives continue to cynically and dishonestly feed the propaganda
mills grist about "all the blacks on welfare" and "increasing
government welfare" etc etc? We know why of course- so they can pump up
the white base and keep it perennially angry.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Examples can be easily multiplied here race is concerned, whether it be Goldwater and Nixon's cynical "southern Strategy," to <a href="http://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2013/06/blog-post.html" target="_blank">bogus claims</a> about "unqualified blacks" allegedly "swamping" workplaces due to "quotas." Steele spends a lot of time bashing "the liberals"
for "polarizing" <st1:country-region><st1:place>America</st1:place></st1:country-region>,
but he carefully avoids shining the spotlight on conservatives for their
dishonest and cynical role in promoting the self-same "polarization."</div>

<b>3) STEELE SKIPS THE FACT THAT IT'S NOT ONLY LIBERALS WHO PLAY THE "VICTIM"
CARD BUT CONSERVATIVES AS WELL. </b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Steele asserts that liberals deal in "poetic
truth" as a reaction to the shames of <st1:country-region><st1:place>America</st1:place></st1:country-region>'s
past- like racism etc., and a world of victims and victimizers. Such may be true as
to SOME liberals as in the bean-sprout college campus brigades, but informed liberals refer to the DEMONSTRABLE TRUTH of being black and discriminated against in America, where there is little "poetry" but plenty of victims and victimizers. In any event, that notion of "poetic truth" is more than matched by some conservatives- who
proffer "victim truth" to portray whites as innocent
"sufferahs" at the hands of evil liberals and minorities- you know-
like white welfare recipients - "victims" who on average receive
<a href="https://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2015/06/despite-much-more-wealth-than-blacks.html" target="_blank">HIGHER</a> benefits than black recipients, even though the black ones are in greater poverty and need (Durr and Hill 2006). Or take the paltry 2-4% of black students admitted to
say top tier Ivy universities under preference policies, compared to the 15-30%
of white "legacies" admitted under preferential policies, or <b><a href="https://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2011/04/affirmative-action-primary.html" target="_blank">white women "victims" who are the primary beneficiaries of "affirmative action."</a></b> (Sowell 2004) Its mostly the blacks that
draw right wing bile and scorn you see. White people mostly get a relative
pass. In short, white conservatives are just as cynical and hypocritical as
liberals, and have their own version of "political correctness" -
i.e. "conservative correctness" as a simplistic answer for <st1:country-region><st1:place>America</st1:place></st1:country-region>'s
ills.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Steele also posits the late 1960s before "affirmative
action" as some sort of golden age, an age of "authority"
compared to the liberal initiated age of "authenticity." He
references white elites and the Black Panthers etc etc.. But all this is
laughably dated and obsolete, and time and time again, Steele appears stuck in
the past. His personal anecdotes as to growing up in the 1950s and so on, only
reinforce the case. In any event, conservatives quickly countered with their own version of "authenticity" - juxtaposing in Spiro Agnew's famous words, the "effete intellectual snobs" over against the solid, authentic citizens of "the silent majority." News flash to Steele who in the early 1970s was a well placed
academic at San Jose State University (San Jose State at the time was heavily recruiting minority professors under its own <span style="color: red;"><b><a href="http://www.hoover.org/research/affirmative-action-higher-education-dilemma-conflicting-principles" target="_blank">high pressure push or "affirmative action"</a> </b></span>program when Steele was hired), and could marry his white wife and float above the fray: it was no
"golden age." In fact it was a time of open racism and strong counter-reaction. Just ask
conservative favorite Richard Nixon when he tried to persuade white unions to
start complying with basic civil rights laws. They ignored or stonewalled him
to the point that an exasperated Nixon put the hammer down and inaugurated his
famous, (or infamous) landmark "affirmative action" Philadelphia Plan, that
actually forced racist white unions to open up previously "reserved"
jobs for whites to all Americans. Or just ask black workers denied promotions
or held back, or black job seekers locked out of the market by white racism, or
black housing seekers locked out decent accommodations. It took the hammer
blows of lawsuits, protests as well as shifting economic and demographic
circumstances to begin to effect change. The average black person did not have the
luxury of flitting about as a relatively well paid college professor in San Jose.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Steele also offers breathless statements such as that the desire
for equality has trumped freedom, virtue and honesty. This may be so in SOME
venues, as seen in SOME "PC"college campus excesses. But in others, <span style="color: red;">the desire to preserve white privilege and sandbag black
progress has also trumped freedom, virtue and honesty</span>. Steele himself warns his
readers not to naively assume that racism has disappeared, but he stops there, and can't candidly examine
the other side of the equation for that would undermine his whole
position and persona. There is nothing wrong with being a black conservative. The problem is finding an HONEST black conservative willing to speak candidly about the
right wing, and its distortions. To speak candidly would undermine their position,
and the support they get from the white right. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
As for honesty and character being undermined by
preferential programs, this is so as to SOME instances, but there is the flip
side that again Steele ducks and avoids. To begin with, honesty and character were in some respects quite questionable under all-white preferential programs that bloomed in Steele's supposedly mo betta "age of authority". Second, what about honesty and character in conservative dealings on race? Or the white preference manipulations which
are as strong as ever today - from the quiet networks that ensure only white friends,
relatives and cronies "get the hookup", to the subtle policy manipulations
that price "the culluds" out of certain venues, to bureaucratic rules
that do the same, to numerous other subtle, <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Racism-without-Racists-Color-Blind-Persistence/dp/1442202181" target="_blank">behind the scenes webs of white manipulation and deception</a>. Scholars have long detailed such things.
Again, Steele dare not open that can of worms, less his own burnished image as
a "straight talking" man of courage be exposed as less than
advertised.<o:p> </o:p></div>

<b>4) STEELE AVOIDS THE CENTRAL FACT OF AMERICAN LIFE THAT
MOST WHITES FEEL </b><span style="color: red;"><b><a href="http://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2015/08/how-obama-plays-upon-white-guilt-hilary.html" target="_blank">NO "GUILT" OR "SHAME" AT ALL</a>.</b></span><b> </b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Most banish shame to a past era- long ago- hence the popular
white refrain: "I had nothing to do with owning slaves." This is the
default white position.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Contrary to
Steele's notion, the detailed work of scholars like Eduardo Bonilla-Silva
(<i>Racism Without Racists)</i>, for example, demonstrates in depth that whites are
mostly indifferent or in deep denial about any "shame." In fact in poll
after poll whites typically dismiss their own culpability or complicity in
creating racial inequality in <st1:country-region><st1:place>America</st1:place></st1:country-region>,
and heavily blame black people for every ill besetting them. And as others like
author Tim Wise show 2009- (Between Barack and<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> A </span>Hard Place) as early as 1963, whites in polls were dismissing black
concerns saying that blacks had just as good opportunities as whites in the
workplace or in education. This same white denial or dismissal fantasy mentality continues on into some of today's polls. Many whites for example
still seem to think a majority of blacks are on welfare (a bogus notion), or
that black folk depend to any significant extent on "affirmative action
quotas" which are creating cruel burdens for suffering white people (another
bogus notion) and a host of other erroneous beliefs and attitudes. Indeed, even
when whites know these notions are false, they still keep pushing such
distorted propaganda (particularly white right wingers)<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>in order to dismiss black concerns. In short,
when the total picture is looked at, most white people are not in any
"shame" mode at all.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: red;">Polls on discrimination - where's the alleged "white guilt"?</span> Polls show relatively little evidence of any "guilt" re reparations, affirmative action etc on the part of whites. For example a CNN/USA
Today/Gallup Poll of 1001 adults, 820 white and 146 black in 2002 did not show
white people in any paroxysm of alleged "shame." 9 out of 10 white
Americans for example rejected reparations; 62% rejected any government apology
for legally permitting slavery.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>In the
1980s and beyond, polls shows consistently strong white opposition to
affirmative action. In five separate <st1:city><st1:place>Gallup</st1:place></st1:city>
polls for example between 1977 and 1989, no more than 11 percent of whites
endorsed preferential treatment for minorities.
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br />
But even poll data is not needed to cast doubt on Steele's notion of "white guilt." It is true that again and again, polls of whites suggest that whites think racial discrimination is something of the past. Most are not on any "guilt trip" at all. But white behavior on the ground also suggests that "guilt" is rather thin there.<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">Housing discrimination - where's the alleged "white guilt"?</span> For example, whites have basically segregated off their schools (hence today's phenomenon of racially integrated schools declining) as well as their communities by various methods- from manipulating zoning and other legal controls designed to suppress the supply of housing, to "white flight" to the indirect "white price"- i.e. minorities being priced out of various venues by more affluent whites- hence less blacks and browns to hang around. Most whites feel no "guilt" about such things at all, debunking Steele's core notion about so-called "guilt trips."<br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">Preferential treatment for whites in college admissions- where's the alleged "white guilt"?</span> As far as the white trump card of complaint, alleged "white suffering" under "affirmative action", a recent 2010 Century Foundation study called "The Future of Affirmative Action" found that for every student of color who benefited at all from affirmative action at a selective college, there are two whites with lower scores and grades than the average, but who were admitted anyway because of family connections or parental alumni status. <a href="http://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2011/04/affirmative-action-primary.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: red;">And as regards affirmative action (AA), the main beneficiaries are white women not blacks</span></a>. But see, white people have no guilt at all in bashing blacks as being such lazy, exclusive beneficiaries of preferential treatment. And whites feel no guilt about the "legacy system" for elite universities, which in some places reserves up to <a href="http://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2018/06/asiarate-lawsuit-against-harvard-shows.html" target="_blank">30% of the admission slots for mostly white alumni</a>- a handy system that keeps out better performing Asians. Where is this burning "white guilt" re minorities Shelby Steele speaks off? Cue laughter..<br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">Law enforcement discrimination - where's the alleged "white guilt"?</span> On the law enforcement front, most whites don't feel "guilty" at all about policing practices that unfairly target blacks. Well into the late 1990s, into the 2000 and alive and well today via "Operation PIPELINE," police "<a href="https://www.esquire.com/news-politics/a1223/driving-while-black-0499/" target="_blank">profiling</a>" practices continued to target black drivers out of proportion to their presence on the road, or any crimes committed. The infamous "<a href="https://genius.com/Gary-webb-driving-while-black-annotated" target="_blank">black shakedown</a>" seizures of money from black motorists by people like Sheriff Bob Vogel in Florida in the 1990s are just among the best known of several pernicious practices. White voters certainly felt little "guilt" despite widespread publicity of abuses. They returned Vogel twice to office. On other fronts municipalities continue to pay out millions in police brutality settlements every year, and whites are willing to pony up in their taxes to maintain the current system, rather than undertake serious police reform efforts that allegedly "guilty" people would undertake to fix a problem.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">Employment discrimination - where's the alleged "white guilt"?</span> On the employment front, one MIT study found that even when job applicants are equally qualified in terms of experience and education, applicants with white-sounding names are 50 percent more likely than those with black-sounding names to get a callback for an interview. Another found that white male job applicants with criminal records are more likely to get called back for an interview than black men without one, even when all other qualifications are indistinguishable (Wise 2009).<br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">White dating relationships- where's the alleged "white guilt"? </span>Surely all this guilt should mean more opportunities for black folk to date "guilty" whites, who to show their liberal sensitivity go along. NOT! Let's take the dating world. As far as the gay side, per several gay men of color who have researched and lived the issue, white gays are rather indifferent and sometimes even hostile towards their darker brethren, though of course there is variation in all communities. Says Chong-suk Han (2007-Quote): <i>"Despite the civil rights dialogue used by the gay community, many ‘gay’ organizations and members of the ‘gay’ community continue to exclude men of color from leadership positions and ‘gay’ establishments, thus continuing to add to the notion that ‘gay’ equals ‘white’.</i>" Hmm, not a lot of "white guilt" there either. Nor does it show up on dating sites among straights. Surely all this "white guilt" Steele talks about should get black folk some love wouldn't it? Nope. Detailed analyses of dating sites show that as far as whites, blacks get the least amount of replies or attention. See Christian Rudder's 2014 book "<i>Dataclysm</i>" for a detailed analysis of OK Cupid for example, but it is a pattern that shows up on Match.com and other major sites. Thus the mystery: Where are all these "guilty" white people just a dyin to show black folk some love?<br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">Legal system prosecutors stacking the deck against black defendants by excluding black jurors- where's the "white guilt"? </span>Surely white defenders of our great constitutional idea of checks and balances and safeguards to ensure a fair jury trial should be shocked as how prosecutors time and time again stacked the deck against black defendants with <a href="https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/landmark-us-case-to-expose-rampant-racial-bias-behind-the-death-penalty/ar-AAGiHSW?ocid=spartandhp" target="_blank">rigged jury pools</a>? Nope. When appeals courts pointed out the discriminatory anomalies and contradictions white legislators of some states had the law changed to bypass this.<br />

<br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">How Shelby Steele's meme collapses under any serious scrutiny </span>- Again, one wonders, where is this wave of "white guilt" Shelby Steele keeps talking about? Black folk are scratching their heads, along with informed white independents. If anything, real data out there shows it is mostly indifference, or even hostility. But of course, Steele ducks around detailed discussion of ACTUAL white behavior, to pump up the weak "guilt" meme for his white conservative allies. And does anyone really believe that the deeply embedded white ethnic networks, the ones like the Irish or Italian networks that control hundreds of thousands of government jobs and that excluded and continue to partially exclude black people have any "guilt"? Or the cynical union bosses and rank and file? Are the significant white majorities opposed to affirmative action, not to mention those filing lawsuits re "reverse" discrimination consumed by "guilt"? Where are these cringing white hordes, doubled over in "guilt"?<br />
<br />Steele fails to even minimally address data on actual white
thinking and behavior, serving up instead personal incidents such as his spiel
about "white guilt" at the "TED" conference, or how he
experienced segregated swimming pools when he was growing up, or how the white
teammates on his swim team excluded him from their summer swim and picnic gatherings with the
connivance of the white coach. These 1950s/1960s personal anecdotes are all well and good,
even touching, but for a real exploration of the topic one needs to pull in
credible data and reference and what other in-depth writers have written.
Steels fails to do either.
When reality on the ground is looked at much of Steele's spiel is laughable. White behavior does not show much "guilt" at all in the current day.<br />
<br />
Interestingly enough, most of the white people that excluded Steele from their social gatherings seemed to have very little "guilt" about that at all. He relates how one white teammate raved exuberantly about his summer outings (the one where the "colored" Steele was excluded). Steele claims that he sensed guilt by his teammate and that the exuberance was cover for "racial innocence."<br />
<span style="color: blue;"><i>QUOTE:</i></span><br />
<span style="color: blue;"><i>"All these white people—the coach, my teammates, and their families—would have comprised a little community of coconspirators that, all together, invented the rationalizations necessary to exclude the only black swimmer on the team. White lies, as it were, would have been told all around. When my teammate approached me in the registration line so anxious to tell me about his summer, I could see—even as a teenager—that his very exuberance was the repression of some inner doubt or guilt. It was one of those self-serving circumlocutions that racism thrives on. Because he believed himself to be innocent of racism, he (and the other coconspirators) reasoned that he could never have had so much fun if he had known himself to be complicit with racism. Therefore, if he had great fun, it was proof that he had not conspired to exclude his black teammate. He wanted me to witness his excitement as proof of his innocence."</i></span><br />
<br />
But it is just as easy for a reader to interpret the story another way- that his white pal actually felt little real "guilt", maybe some momentary discomfort at leaving him behind, but nothing in depth, and certainly nothing to get worked up about. <span style="color: red;">The white boy was exuberant not as any sort of cover, but because he felt little of the pain Steele felt, and had little sensitivity towards Steele's feelings. The negro teammate was excluded and it was fine after all- we still had fun. No need for any cover- the summer went just fine, as if the negro did not exist at all.</span> This is an aspect of the case Steele seems not to have grasped or else he avoids honestly addressing it. If his white buddy was truly "guilty" he would have rather played down his "negro-free" summer fun out of respect for Steele's feelings. But he didn't. <span style="color: red;">Having great fun is not a cover for guilt- it is a manifestation of white indifference.</span> Various reviewers have hailed Steele's racial psychological insight, but his insight seems to a bit shallow here, and ultimately undermines his argument re "shame" or guilt. If anything the incident shows that most (not all) white people, absent some sort of outside confrontation or pressure, feel very little real or substantial "guilt" for the negatives they inflict on black people. Steele's white friend anecdote, ironically, might be a nice illustration of the case.<br />

<b>5) STEELE URGES CONSERVATIVE SOLUTIONS TO
"POLARIZATION" BUT HAS SUS</b><st1:stockticker><b>PICI</b></st1:stockticker><b>OUSLY
LITTLE TO SAY ABOUT "POLARIZING" CONSERVATIVE RACISM, WHICH IS ALIVE AND WELL.</b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Steele's attempts to psychoanalyze Americans on race show
some insight, but again, he is overly heavy on personal opinion and anecdote.
What have others who have studied race relations in depth written we want to
know and how do you respond to that? Steele has little to say, giving the book
a thin feel. There has been a huge amount on the topic- why don't you address
at least a portion of it? Steele cops out. Indeed he says he is not going to
give any solutions because "we all know what the solutions are" such
as being nice, good manners etc.. Really? So smiling at lot at black people, saying hello etc (or
vice versa for whites) will help erase "white guilt" or "shame"? Who woulda
thunk? </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Strangely enough, of those "solutions we all know"
Steele does not mention stopping the continual distortion of black history and
achievements by white right wingers (like Ann Coulter and others for example) nor does he
give much attention to the rise of a significant white "heriditarian"
movement- linked with Charles Murray of Bell Curve fame and many such others- that
is dedicated to disparaging black intelligence, history and accomplishments,
while presenting whites as virtuous paragons of "merit", family
stability, and peacefulness. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
This white "heriditarian" movement for example,
has found a welcome home on the Internet where its propaganda organs churn out
distortion around the clock. It is much more sophisticated that the snarling Ku
Kluxers of old, churning out distorted claims, sleight of hand analyses,
even bogus data to lend its racialist agenda a scientific veneer. And this is not simply Internet trolls. A well-funded network of right wing think tanks, books and conferences, led by established, degreed academics such as Linda Gottfredson, Richard Lynn or Tatu VanHaven, with ties to prestigious conservative publications such as National Review, and deep-pocketed bankrollers such as the Pioneer Fund are well embedded in the mix. And they do a broad mix of distortion and misrepresentation on black people. Somehow Shelby Steele's "solution" misses such things. Backward
black evolution is a favorite meme. High number of black abortions? Well what
can we expect from people that are backward even from "evolution"? Of
course the propagandists don't mention that the highest rate of abortion in the
world are by alleged white "role models"- Russia kills 2 white babies
for each live birth.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Heavy black street
violence? Well of course- and what can be expected from these backward humans
with their oversupply of testosterone and so on? Why there may even be a
"violence gene" with "these people." Of course few in the
heriditarian propaganda chambers mention white groups with similar high rates
of violence,- like the white Irish, or the greatest expression of systematic
murder of all time- the Holocaust. You see they can't possible be "a white
thing." But when blacks are involved, yes of course black
"evolution" or black "culture" is to blame. White people
are always<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>nice and virtuous. Heaven
forbid anyone apply the same reasoning in reverse and attribute such negatives
to whiteness. Much of the above is sugarcoated or veiled with the right codewords, and has found wide play on the popular Internet. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Typical of his lightweight, dishonest approach, Steele
avoids such issues, even though they are significant, and they do have a direct
bearing on the matter of alleged white "shame" including the continued denialist posture some white conservatives take.</div>

<b>6) STEELE'S ANECDOTES SEEM CONTRADICTORY AT TIMES AND
STRAIN CREDIBILITY, AS IN HIS CLARENCE THOMAS EXAMPLE</b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>For example he claims
Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas is a "victim" of
"liberalism" - from "dissociation"- liberalism's guiding
light. But the example he gives is unconvincing and weak. According to Steele, Clarence
Thomas virtually pitched his Yale Law degree away into an obscure corner where
it now gathers dust, devalued because of connections with "affirmative
action." Perhaps, but Thomas himself benefited from AA to get into Yale.
To maintain consistency he now has to disparage his own Yale degree, for which
we are told by Steele he worked so hard? Steele's use of the example seems all
too convenient- and ties into the white right-wing narrative about supposedly
"psychologically crippled" black folk due to "quotas."<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It's all a bit too pat. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
But there is another explanation that Steele misses
entirely- one he would know and mention, if he honestly addressed the topic. Thomas' Yale
experience was devalued not merely because of his initial AA entry or "quotas", but because
white networks of privilege had little use for a small town black man with no
connections. How often such white networks give their own a leg up on the mere
basis of "potential" while a black man has to work twice as hard to
get a minimal foothold. This is the narrative that runs through hundreds of
reminiscences<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>of successful blacks. It
is strangely missing from Steele's<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>discussion.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
It is true that Thomas was disappointed because big money
offers did not come his way. But in fact he applied to mostly white law firms
in the south (not exactly a region of progressivism, or higher salaries), and he did in fact refuse some
job offers as beneath him, when told he would be put on pro bono work. He was
crushed that white classmates were getting better offers. But was this due to
the "taint" of "affirmative action" or to the old truth
most qualified black job seekers know- if you are white- white networks will
reach out to and help you to much more lucrative opportunities than if you are
black. That is the blunt reality. Steele curiously avoids discussing this in any detail, even though it is a central reality for many black people. Yes, it is true that Thomas found out that a mere
Yale degree for a small town black man like him was worth less because he did
not have the larger web of connections and white networks white graduates have.
There were preferential white legacy admission to Yale no doubt who strolled
out with a mediocre "gentleman's C" and got coddled by the white
networks, and perhaps made out better than a more dedicated guy like Clarence Thomas. Sure. But that's white privilege, which Steele continually minimizes, downplays or avoids discussing. The fact that Steele keeps minimizing or avoiding discussion
of the white privilege that hurt, or seemingly devalued
his hero Clarence Thomas, shows that Steele is not being honest with the
reader. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
But white privilege also operates also on another level- it can devalue, but it can also build up, provided you are useful to the whites wielding it. Powerful white supporters or boosters, often Yale graduates, helped Clarence Thomas greatly. In fact Thomas DID benefit from his supposedly
"useless" Yale credential to obtain a series of high profile slots,
beginning with an appointment by a white Republican who was attorney general of Missouri AND a
Yale graduate. The "old school connection" DID benefit Clarence
Thomas after all. And in future years, the same supposedly "useless"
Yale degree was touted by the Republicans that appointed him to those slots. He
would not have gone so far without that Yale degree.<br />
<br />
Thomas was also hired on to the legal staff of chemical
giant <st1:place><st1:city>Monsanto</st1:city>, <st1:state>in part</st1:state></st1:place>, because Monsanto's conservative Republican general counsel Ned Putzell
Jr. wanted an African American and a woman on board, as a good political move,
according to Thomas' sympathetic biographer, Andre Peyton Thomas. As a Yale
graduate with a serviceable record, Thomas was a credible pick. Nice corporate job with a major company? Not bad for a supposedly "useless" Yale degree. Ironically Thomas, who complains about the "lowered standards of affirmative action" was himself only minimally qualified when he was
nominated to be a federal appeals court judge despite having no experience whatsoever as a judge. His "principled philosophy" against "affirmative action" did not stand in the way of him rapidly accepting that job however, nor did it hinder acceptance of his further nomination to the Supreme Court. Favor from on high has benefitted whites too, but Thomas' supporters pitch him as this "higher standards" guy. And yet his degree from a prestigious institution helped pad an otherwise undistinguished resume. By his own standards Thomas should have refused to go in under such a lowered bar, but he did. And old white Yale supporters like J. Danforth were to help him immeasurably as he undertook the Court confirmation hearings battle. Again, the allegedly "useless" or "tainted" Yale connections worked out quite nicely for Clarence Thomas.<o:p></o:p></div>

<br />
<b>7. STEELE'S NOTION OF "GUILT" IS SHALLOW AND DISTORTED FOR HE DOES NOT ADDRESS WHITE PRIVILEGE</b><br />
<br />
It is unknown how one can talk about white "guilt" and not address white privilege. The two are linked- whether as a cause, or an element of angry denial when for example whites living in formerly "whites only" suburbs, fulsomely subsidized by the federal government, and reaping all the advantages thereform, including access to better jobs and schools, angrily deny that they are the beneficiaries of massive preferential treatment in such things. Steele, like many white conservatives, seems to think that pointing out the matter of such privilege is promotion of "guilt." But such privilege is a fact on the ground. As seen with his own example of Clarence Thomas, whites who have their network of connections, built up over 2 centuries have it a lot better than a guy like Thomas. Again, was it because AA "devalued" his degree that Thomas did not get lucrative "big money" offers from white law firms, or was it because he was a no-name small town black guy with an otherwise unremarkable college record? If he was white and had access to white networks Thomas would have made out a lot better.<br />
<br />
The failure of Steele to address such crucial matters just shows how shallow his argument is. Again, if you are writing about guilt you have to address one of its key components- actual or perceived privilege, that should make you feel "guilty." You don't have to write an academic tome but you should be willing to candidly and honestly address such issues. But Steele again and again cops out. Just as one example of privilege, when actual data is referenced, sober, credible studies of employment like Deidre Royser's 2003 "<i>Race and the Invisible hand: How White Networks Exclude Black Men from Blue-Collar Jobs</i>," show that again and again, blacks have to rely on things like advertised job openings, advertised formal training programs etc etc, while whites are quickly and easily "hooked up" for jobs and other benefits by their informal white networks, including "good old boy" (or girl) white networks. <br />
<br />
Steele avoids talking about such things in any depth, subsuming it all under "guilt" - a tactic numerous white right wingers use to stifle discussion- the equivalent "conservative correctness" to the "political correctness" they so oft decry. Talk about "white guilt" (which is low or in many venues, non-existent) serves as a diversionary propaganda measure to avoid real debate on substantive issues, and to continue the massive distortion of US history where race is concerned. Steele's lightweight book, in the final analysis, helps along such tactics.<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>8. STEELE'S NOTION THAT "LIBERALS" DISSOCIATE WHITE PEOPLE FROM GOOD THINGS IS LAUGHABLE</b><br />
<br />
Steele also claims that "liberals" supposedly "disassociate" whites from such nice things as virtue, exceptionally, etc and connect them with hypocrisy and evil. This is sheer nonsense as far as a general statement, and flatly contradicted specifically by opening any credible book on US history. It may be true that some liberal/leftists on some college campus condemn all white people as evil but such are trivial. Much more telling is the fact that whites HAVE done some very bad things to blacks throughout US history and on some measures continue to do so. This is fact, not "dissociation." But contrary to the "dissociation" argument, liberals DO generally associate whites with goodness, and pat themselves on the back for progressive reforms that DO "associate" white people with enlightenment, goodness, virtue, democracy, freedom etc. In fact this was one of the things that made progress so slow on civil rights- the unwillingness of white liberals to acknowledge the vicious nature of segregation and discrimination and the serious effect it had on black people. To such liberals the goodness of white people would bring a withering away of such unpleasantness in time, and there was no need for blacks to do marches, demonstrations, lawsuits etc, an argument explicitly stated during that era- as credible histories like Taylor Branch's Pulitzer Prize winning series (<i>Parting the Waters, Pillar of Fire, At Canaan's Edge</i>) show in detail. Just the foot-dragging of the Kennedys illustrates the case. Exactly when this benevolent withering away of discrimination against blacks would take place was never pinned down- it was all a fuzzy future matter, best left to the future, and a calm present, if only pesky negroes would keep quiet and stop asking white people when they were going to fulfill their own constitution. As it turned out, it took severe pressure, including international embarrassment forced action on complacent white liberals- and in the aftermath, many were not shy about trying to take credit for long overdue reforms in the name of white goodness.<br />
<br />
Furthermore it does not take "liberals" to show plenty of credible "association" of whites with hypocrisy and evil. Dry history makes the case, as do conservative bible thumpers opposed to slavery back in the 1800s, among others. And Steele's Clarence Thomas example illustrates white hypocrisy in part, just as that same hypocrisy denies or minimizes the painful burdens and barriers imposed on blacks, blames them for their entire plight, and continues to generate a massive propaganda narrative of distortion about black history and achievements- such as the myth that "affirmative action" is responsible for black economic advances. See Ann Coulter's "Mugged" for an example of this cynical white, right wing distortion. Steele's "disassociation" argument is laughable on many counts.</div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>SUMMARY</b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
To sum up, while Steele makes some fair criticisms of
liberalism, they are nothing new and are basically a retread of the same anti
"politically correct" positions other conservatives have made for
years. This gives the book a stale feel- it really does seem like a rehash of
stuff he has written before or that one has heard for the last 2 decades. I
mean we know America is no longer the legal apartheid state that it was as
recently as the 1960s, and things have changed immensely for the better from
those days on many counts, but circa 2015, is it really a "fresh"
blinding insight that school integration has not matched the "ideal"
black-white body counts advocated by SOME liberal proponents? Whoa.. like this
is news? An did people in the 1960s really expect some sort of racial nirvana with the passage of civil rights laws? ML King certainly did not, nor did Malcolm X, nor most black citizens, nor most white ones with any decent knowledge about America's race struggles. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
A number of reviewers have touted the book as offering a
so-called "fresh" approach but it seems stale and recycled, not "fresh." A second major
weakness is Steele disingenuousness. He has plenty to say to bash "the
liberals" about "polarizing" America, yet carefully skips over
cynical and dishonest "conservative correctness" and its own
divisiveness and "polarization" tactics. This makes the book much less
useful than it would have been as a way to get some clear analysis and answers
on the American dilemma. </div>

This post wraps up our trilogy on ancient African movement into ancient Europe, by looking at additional links via Iberia (ancient Spain). Some recent findings from DNA studies of movement to Iberia are discussed.<a href="http://nilevalleypeoples.blogspot.com/2015/11/go-with-flow-2-african-gene-flow-into.html" target="_blank"> Previous posts also looked at Greece, Italy and the Balkans.</a> Again to dismiss the inevitably fake strawmen when such matters arise- this post does NOT
claim Spaniards, Greeks, Italians, Sardinians or other of today's Europeans are wholly "Africans," or "black
" or that they cease being "European" or "white" - but that in various measures, in some eras, distinctive ancient African gene flow into ancient Europe can be detected well before the modern slave trade/colonial era, and well before the historic era. Fake strawmen out of the way- let's once again get down to business. <span style="font-family: "verdana" , "arial"; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span><br />

<br />
<span style="color: red;"><b>Over the sands and far away: Interpreting an Iberian mitochondrial lineage with ancient Western African origins- QUOTE. </b></span><br />
<br />
OBJECTIVES:<br />
There is an ongoing effort to characterize the genetic links between Africa and Europe, mostly using lineages and haplotypes that are specific to one continent but had an ancient origin in the other. Mitochondrial DNA has been proven to be a very useful tool for this purpose since a high number of putatively European-specific variants of the African L* lineages have been defined over the years. Due to their geographic locations, Spain and Portugal seem to be ideal places for searching for these lineages.<br />
<br />
METHODS:<br />
Five members of a minor branch of haplogroup L3f were found in recent DNA samplings in the region of Asturias (Northern Spain), which is known for its historical isolation. The frequency of L3f in this population (˜1%) is unexpectedly high in comparison with other related lineages in Europe. Complete mitochondrial DNA sequencing of these L3f lineages, as well phylogenetic and phylogeographic comparative analyses have been performed.<br />
<br />
RESULTS:<br />
The L3f variant found in Asturias seems to constitute an Iberian-specific haplogroup, distantly related to lineages in Northern Africa and with a deep ancestry in Western Africa. Coalescent algorithms estimate the minimum arrival time as 8,000 years ago, and a possible route through the Gibraltar Strait.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">CONCLUSIONS:<br />Results are concordant with a previously proposed Neolithic connection between Southern Europe and Western Africa, which might be key to the proper understanding of the ancient links between these two continents. </span><br />

EXCERPTS- from study<br />
<br />
Thus, one can reasonably regard coalescent dates only as a rough estimate of the minimum arrival time of a founder lineage (Pereira et al., 2010). This would place our inferred transcontinental migration in the Early Neolithic, when several pastoralist societies of southern Spain and Northern Africa showed similar cultural traits and human contacts resulting from herding and fishing expeditions might have taken place over the Gibraltar Strait (Anderung et al., 2005; Straus, 2001).<br />
<br />
The minimum boundary for its Iberian arrival might have to be pushed backwards, probably to dates near the 15,000 years ago shown in the eBSP analyses as the start of the demographic growth for the whole [L3f1b*] paragroup. Taking these findings into account, the broader timeframe described in the present work corresponds to a period of fluid population connectivity between Africa and Europe, as shown by other studies on mtDNA (Achilli et al., 2005; Cerezo et al., 2012; Malyarchuk et al., 2008).<br />
<br />
The object in question is a small mesial (or mesio-distal) fragment of a harpoon with three short barbs on one edge. Found by Roche, in Level III of Taforalt Cave, the harpoon comes from a Final Iberomaurusian (a.k.a. “Oranian”) context, with abundant backed bladelets and backed points (total = 63%) and little else, except a few denticulates, endscrapers, retouched flakes and very few circle segments. Level III is bracketed by Ibero-Maurusian levels with radiocarbon dates: Level II at 10,800 ± 400 and Level VI at 12,070 ± 400 BP. Thus, the harpoon must be about 11,000 years old — contemporary with the Final Magdalenian in Mediterranean Spain. This harpoon is the only object of its kind known from the Maghreb (Roche, 1963), although harpoons are also found in the contemporaneous Natufian of the Levant and in the early Holocene “Mesolithic” of the Sudanese Nile and the lacustrine regions of East Africa. </div>

Stepping back for a moment: Would Neolithic arrival of this L3f branch have to have been by a trans-Gibraltar route? That’s the most parsimonious scenario, given its phylogeography and total absence (to date) in the observed set of early European farmer mtDNAs, but Fernández et al. 2014 do report that, of 15 successful mtDNAs from Tell Halula, Syria (Middle Pre-Pottery Neolithic B: 7500–7300 BC), one was to be classified as L3* (no finer assignment possible) [8].<br />
<br />
If we trust Fernández and colleagues, we in fact have prehistoric (c. 4ka BP) records of other L* lineages in Spain: a possible record of L1b from Middle Neolithic Nerja, Málaga (2260 BC; individual NE-NAP; 16129A, 16264T, 16270T, 16278T, 16293G, 16311C: “L1b”, but possibly H11a) [9][10] and three apparent L2 (of five working samples) from Chalcolithic Tres Montes, Navarra (2130 BC; individuals TM-3, TM-11, TM-18: 16261T, 16278T, 16294T, 16309G). From the same group comes shakier suggestions of L3* (supposedly four of eight samples from this period) in Chalcolithic eastern Spain: Malpaso cave (individual 2MP4; 16218T, 16223T: “L3?”, possibly H20), Jovellús sepulchre (individual 1JO1; 16218Y, 16223Y: “L3?”, possibly H20), Assud de Villareal, 2nd sepulchre (individual 1AV1: 16218Y, 16223Y: “L3?”, possibly H20), Costa Lloguera sepulchre (individual COST3; 16223Y: “L3a?”, possibly R) [11]. It’s a true pity that from this material we only have HVR-I data, much of it not terribly specific.<br />

Description: SUMMARY OF DOCTORAL THESIS <br />
The origins of European populations have been addressed from different disciplines, highlighting the contribution of population genetics studies. Shuffle two moments in prehistory in which it has been possible to model the gene pool of populations in Europe: the spread of Neolithic and Palaeolithic period expansions. The ability to recover from bygone population genetics provides a unique opportunity to test the assumptions made in situ from other disciplines. We studied 197 samples from 115 dental and bone individuals 17 archaeological sites Sumerian Neolithic and Middle East, when Meroitic Nubia and Paleolithic era, post-Neolithic and Neolithic of the Iberian Peninsula. We obtained complete sequences of mitochondrial DNA of 244 bp of 35 different individuals, were compared with sequences from the same region of present individuals from 38 populations in Europe, Africa and Middle East. In phylogenetic reconstructions based on Reynolds distance groups of ancient samples are grouped together, separated from the rest of current populations. However, phylogenetic reconstructions made from the haplotypes of ancient and modern samples denote that although the majority of ancient mitochondrial variants are not present in current populations sampled, may relate more or less closely with them. <br />
<br />
The composition of haplotypes and haplogroups of ancient samples from the Near East and the Iberian Peninsula differs markedly from that found in the current populations of these geographical regions. In the ancient Middle East show highlights in particular the absence of mitochondrial haplogroup J, U3, W and X, associated with the Neolithic expansion into Europe. This may be due either to the sample obtained is not old chronologically or geographically-representative populations of the Middle East that spread during the Neolithic well that these variants were not introduced in Europe during the Neolithic. In the ancient sample of the Iberian Peninsula highlights the presence of 50% of sub-Saharan lines. These lines may have been introduced during the Solutrean, the Mesolithic or Neolithic. This work also delved into various technical aspects of obtaining authentic ancient DNA and the influence of several variables in the preservation of genetic material. <br />
<br />
ABSTRACT <br />
The origins of the European Populations Studied extensively from Have Been Different disciplines. It is Thought That ancient demic expansions, like occurred After the Late Those Glacial Maximum or DURING the Middle East from neolithic diffussion to Europe. The Possibility to recover DNA from past Populations offers an unique Opportunity to test in situ These hypothesis. 197 It Were Analyzed teeth and bones from 115 individuos Archaeological Sites and 17 Different from Middle East and the Iberian Peninsula. It WAS possible to recover mitochondrial DNA sequences 244pb-35 from Different Individuals. They Were 38 Compared to sequences from European, African and Middle Eastern Populations present-day. Phylogenetic Reconstructions from Reynolds genetic distance Showed That ancient samples clustered together, extant from Clearly Separated Populations. <br />
<br />
However, based phylogenetic Reconstructions on ancient and modern mitochondrial haplotypes Showed That ancient haplotypes are related to extant ones. Haplotype frequencies and haplogroup in samples from the ancient Middle East and the Iberian Peninsula are Different from Those Clearly present in the Same Geographical Nowadays regions. Haplogroups related to J neolithic expansion to Europe, U3, W and X-are absent in ancient middle eastern sample. There are two possible Explanations to this fact. First, It Could Be That the ancient samples possible Analyzed wont be representative of the Middle Eastern Populations That expanded the neolithic. Second, It Could Be That Those haplogroups Also possible wont Have Been made to them in Europe associated with expansions to neolithic demic. At This work It Were Also Examined technical Several Aspects related to the obtention of genuine ancient DNA and the Influence of Different variables in DNA preservation.<br />

<span style="color: blue;">"This work develops a hypothesis on the origin of a cultural complex which was established in the southwest quadrant of the Iberian Peninsula around the transition from the IV to III millennium BC*. The rupture observed between the cultural groups studied herein and those proceeding them in southern Iberia can also be explained by other mechanisms not migratory movements but important accelerations in the change of human behavior. In addition, the close similarities with other peri-Mediterranean cultures may be due to convergence phenomena. The diffusionist explanation that we are presenting has previously been put forward based only on archeological arguments (Escacena et al. 1988). If we recall again the hypothesis that accredits the cultural dispersion to population movements, it is in order to offer an understanding for other studies, above all, genetic and linguistic ones, that support these connections of the North African world with the Iberian Peninsula during the recent prehistoric period." </span></div>

<b><span style="color: red;">New
mtDNA study shows movement from Africa into Spain in Early Holocene-
some 10,000 years ago- long before any Phonecian, Roman, Arab or
colonial era</span></b><br />
<br />
"Determining the timing, identity and direction
of migrations in the Mediterranean Basin, the role of “migratory routes”
in and among regions of Africa, Europe and Asia, and the effects of
sex-specific behaviors of population movements have important
implications for our understanding of the present human genetic
diversity. A crucial component of the Mediterranean world is its
westernmost region. Clear features of transcontinental ancient contacts
between North African and Iberian populations surrounding the maritime
region of Gibraltar Strait have been identified from archeological data.
The attempt to discern origin and dates of migration between close
geographically related regions has been a challenge in the field of
uniparental-based population genetics.. <br />
<br />
To this end, in the
present work we have screened entire mtDNA sequences belonging to U6, M1
and L haplogroups in Andalusians —from Huelva and Granada provinces—and
Moroccan Berbers. We present here pioneer data and interpretations on
the role of NW Africa and the Iberian Peninsula regarding the time of
origin, number of founders and expansion directions of these specific
markers. <b>The estimated entrance of the North African U6 lineages into
Iberia at 10 ky correlates well with other L African clades, indicating
that U6 and some L lineages moved together from Africa to Ibe</b><b>ria in the
Early Holocene.</b> Still, founder analysis highlights that the high
sharing of lineages between North Africa and Iberia results from a
complex process continued through time, impairing simplistic
interpretations. In particular, our work supports the existence of an
ancient, frequently denied, bridge connecting the Maghreb and
Andalusia."<br />

<b><span style="color: red;">Most
visible ancient African influences in Spain seem more to the west in
some mtDNA studies. Waterborne migrations across the Mediterranean was
quite possible and documented long before any Arab or Moorish appearance</span></b><br />
<br />
"The
attractive prehistory and history of Andalusia, the widest and most
populated region of Spain, makes its present-day human population a
prominent objective to detect scenarios of population substructure and
to examine the expected impact of African and other Mediterranean
populations on the Iberian gene pool. <b>Consistently with the
geographical proximity between southern Spain and Africa, previous
published studies have obtained results that show evidences of
African-linked mtDNA lineages among Andalusians as well as high levels
of diversity,</b>either analyzing regional general samples [22, 23, 24]
or focusing on other inland territories within the region [16]. Our
mitochondrial data presented here will give stronger evidences for a
more visible African influence in the west than in the east of
Andalusia.. Western Andalusians (from Huelva, present study) register
the highest frequencies (14.6%) of African lineages reported until now
in the Iberian Peninsula and all over the European continent.<br />
<br />
"Some
researchers (e.g. [53, 54], among others) have proposed a sea route as
the most probable way for Neolithic entrance in Iberia. This process was
phased, using sea navigation and boats big enough to transport men,
women, and the ‘Neolithic package’ in a movement probably originated in
the Gulf of Genoa. Similar methods may have been used between Andalusia
and Morocco. Altogether, these events suggest that the interactions
between Moroccan and Andalusian populations have been old, continuous,
in both ways and with different origins... In the sub-Saharan L
macrohaplogroup network (Figure 4B), lineage L1b is characterized by the
relevant case number contained in the core. According to [50], its
estimated coalescence time is 9.7 kya, so its expansion out of Africa
should have taken place during or after Neolithic age. The L1b star-like
shape indicates a population expansion, and those migrations which
contributed to shape it were not so recent, <b>thus Muslim expansion or more recent migrations accounting for this would not be the main causal reason.</b>"<br />

<b><span style="color: red;">[b]More Archelogical and climate data reveals ancient African movement to Europe (SOuthern Iberia), contributing to the development of the Neolithic in Western Europe [/b] </span></b><br />
QUOTE:<br />
<br />
"New data and a review of historiographic information from Neolithic sites of the Malaga and Algarve coasts (southern Iberian Peninsula) and from the Maghreb (North Africa) reveal the existence of a Neolithic settlement at least from 7.5 cal ka BP. The agricultural and pastoralist food producing economy of that population rapidly replaced the coastal economies of the Mesolithic populations. The timing of this population and economic turnover coincided withmajor changes in the continental and marine ecosystems, including upwelling intensity, sea-level changes and increased aridity in the Sahara and along the Iberian coast. These changes likely impacted the subsistence strategies of the Mesolithic populations along the Iberian seascapes and resulted in abandonments manifested as sedimentary hiatuses in some areas during the Mesolithic–Neolithic transition. The rapid expansion and area of dispersal of the early Neolithic traits suggest the use of marine technology. Different evidences for a Maghrebian origin for the first colonists have been summarized. [b]<span style="color: red;">The recognition of an early North-African Neolithic influence in Southern Iberia and the Maghreb is vital for understanding the appearance and development of the Neolithic in Western Europe. Our review suggests links between climate change, resource allocation, and population turnover.</span>" [/b]<br />

<span style="color: blue;">"In the North, E3b1-M35 and J2-M172 show low frequencies but are more prevalent in the South, which has been interpreted to be a signal of the gene flow coming from Central European Neolithic farmers [17]. R1a1-M17 is rather rare, both in the North, where it probably originates from eastern Europe, and in the South, of possible Greek provenience [17].<br /><br />The two Italian major islands, Sicily and Sardinia, show a different demographic history. The Y-chromosome variability of Sicily shares a common history with that of southern Italy, enriched by an additional Arab contribution, but also North African and Greek influences [18]. On the other hand, Sardinia has been considered to be a genetic outlier within Europe showing clear signals of founder effects;<br /><br />Autosomal ancestry in Italy<br />A panel of 52 AIMs was genotyped in 435 Italian individuals in order to estimate the proportion of ancestry from a three-way differentiation: sub-Saharan Africa, Europe and Asia. Structure analyses allowed us to infer membership proportions in population samples, and these proportions can be graphically displayed, as in Figure 2. This analysis indicated that Italians have a BASAL PROPORTION of sub-Saharan ancestry that is higher (9.2%, onaverage) than other central or northern European populations (1.5%, on average). The amount of African ancestry in Italians is however more comparable to (but slightly higher than) the average in other Mediterranean countries (7.1%).<br /><br />The origin of sub-Saharan African mtDNAs in Europe (including Italian samples) has been recently investigated by Cerezo et al. [81]; the results indicate that a significant proportion of these lineages could have arrived in Italy more than 10,000 years ago; therefore, their presence in Europe does not necessarily date to the time of the Roman Empire, the Atlantic slave trade or to modern migration."</span><br />

"The Paglicci site is located on the southern slope of the Gargano Promontory (Apulia, Southern Italy) it is composed of the present-day cave and a rock shelter that, in the past, was part of the same cave-system. The site has been continuously excavated since the early 60s: from 1961 to 1963 from 2001 to present days by A. Ronchitelli (University of Siena), The 12m thick sequence uncovered inside the cave yielded archeological, paleontological and anthropological remains spanning from Lower Midd1e Paleoolithic (Acheulean, Early Mousterian) to Final Epigravettian, comprising Aurignacian and Gravettian. Among the several human remains uncovered in Paglicci,the most important are two Gravettian burials that are amongst oldest in Europe.<br />
<br />
The two individuals from these burials, Paglicci 12 (Mezzcna and Palma dt Cesnola, 1972), a juvenile male, which age at death was around 12 years old (PA12) and Paglicci 25 (Mezzena and Palma dt Ccsnoia, 1989-90), a young adult female around 20 years (PA25). Over the years they have been the subject of general anthropological studies (Mallegni and Palmadi Cesnola, 1994; Mallegni ct aI., 1999), but with the development of new analytical techniques in paleooanthropology, the morphological affinities of the two specimens are being reconsidered. The main objective is to contribute to the understanding of the first peopling of Europe by Homo sapiens looking at various aspects of these populations such as their morphological characteristics, health status, and cultural background. <br />
<br />
The present study focuses on the morphometric affinities of the mandibles of PA 12 and PA25 which were compared to 78 Old world modern human specimens. The mandibles were described thanks to 22 landmarks and were analyzed through a geometric morphometries analysis predefined groups: extant Europeans (N:=14, Romania and England), extant Asians (N:=14, China and Indonesia), extant Africans (N:=13, Nigeria), Neolithic Europeans (N:=13, Loisy-en~Brie, France), Neolithic Africans (N:=13, Hassie-el-Abiod from Mali; Gamble's Cave 5, F from Kenya) and Paleolithic specimens (N:= 11; Oberkassell and 2 (German), Ohalo II (Israel), Abri Pataud (France), Predmosd 3 and 4 and Brno II (Czech Republic), Combe~Cape!le (France), Grimaldi 5 (Italy), Qafzeh 9 and Skhlll V (Israel). ….to assess the morphological affinities of the Paglicci mandibles which were introduced a posteriori in the DFA. The classification results indicate that apart from the Neolithic Europeans all groups overlap in their morphology. It is especially difficult to distinguish between extant Europeans and Asians, while extant Africans present a slightly different morphotype which is closer to Neolithic Africans. These specimens;.lS weI! as the Palaeolithic mandibles show a much more robust morphology.<br />
<br />
Both Paglicci mandibles are classified as Paleolithic specimens by the DFA. PA 12 is especially similar to the Grimaldi 5 mandible which also belonged to a juvenile individual while PA25 is more similar to Combe-Capelle and Oberkassell. This morphological affinity indicates that PA25 mandible is very robust despite the fact that it is a female individual. Finally, both Paglicci mandibles are also similar to African Neolithic specimens. Contrary to the European Neolithic mandibles, the African Neolithic specimens show close morphological affinities with the Palaeolithic fossils. This could indicate A DIFFERENT MIGRATION PATTERN BETWEEN EUROPE AND AFRICA DURING LATE PALEOLITHIC AND NEOLITHIC."<br />

Only the pathological Dolni Vestonice 15 and Paglicci 25 fall within the Neanderthal range.. The summary statistics for the radius length/trunk height index are found in Table 12.4. HEre too the recent Europeans are characterized by relatively low index values, reflective of shorter radii, and the sub-Saharan Africans are characterized by higher indices, indicative of longer radii. The Neanderthals fall very near the recent European mean, and the Gravettian sample mean falls just below the recent sub-Saharan African mean.<br /><br />With the exception of Dolni Vestonice 13, the other Dolni Vestonice individuals appear more "African-like" in their relative radius lengths...<br /><br />Figure 12.6 is a graphical representation of the radius length/trunk height indices among the fossils. Once again, the European Neanderthals evince the lowest indices, and for this index there is no overlap between Gravettian sample amd the Neanderthals- even the pathological DOnli Vestonice 15 individual falls below their range. Dolni Vestonice 15 has the lowest radius/trunk height index of the Gravettian sample, and DOlni Vestonice 3 and 13 fall toward the low end of the GRavettian range; as with the humerus, Paglicci 25 and Barma GRande 2 evince shorter radii, than do the remainder of the nonpathological Gravettian sample..."</span><br />

</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
The data above is separate from the ancient Out Of Africa migrations of the Paleolithic that brought tropical Africans and tropical African variants to Europe. These present another record, for another time.
This one documents clear traces of ancient "sub-Saharan" African presence in pre-historic Europe using modern DNA, cranial and skeletal data. These influences are long before any historic period like the Roman Empire, and long before any modern "colonial" or "slave trade" era. They occur especially in southern Europe and affect Spain, Italy and the Greek/Aegean area, as documented herein by credible mainstream scholars.</div>

As part of our trilogy on African movement into Europe, this post looks at some recent findings from DNA studies. Note to fake strawmen creators- it does NOT claim Greeks, Italians, Sardinians or other of today's Europeans are wholly "Africans," or that they cease being "European" - but that in various measures, in some eras, distinctive African gene flow into Europe can be detected well before the modern slave trade/colonial era. Some DNA studies are brought to bear on the question below. Now that the fake strawmen are out of the way- let's get down to business.<br />

<span style="color: blue;">"Haplogroup E originated in Africa. This is true also of its European subhaplogroup E3b. In Africa, this sub- group has four separate peak areas; these are in Southern Africa, Morocco, Northern Libya, and the Horn of Africa. The last two bear witness to the route from northwest Africa through Anatolia to Europe. (The frequencies are relatively high also in Anatolia.) In Europe, Haplogroup E3b has peak values (about 25%) in Albania; about equally high frequencies are also typical of some other parts of the Balkans and southern Italy."</span></div>

<span style="color: blue;">"Underhill et al. (2001) showed that the frequency of the YAP+ Y haplogroup commonly referred to as haplogroup E or (III) is relatively high (about 25%) in the Middle East and Mediterranean. This haplogroup E is the major haplogroup found in sub-Saharan Africa (over 75% of all Y chromosomes). Specifically, Europeans contain the E3b sub-haplogroup, which was derived from haplogroup E in sub-Saharan Africa and currently is distributed along the North and East of Africa.. It appears that the 171 AIM test subject of this chapter may recognize the haplogroup E character as West African."</span></div>

during (pre)-history is incomplete; many records were of uncertain
location and/or ambiguous denomination [6].<br /><br />At the time of the Roman Empire, <b>at
least two non-Indo- European populations still inhabited Italy, namely,
the Ligures, in the northwestern area, and the Etruscans </b>with
settlements located in areas far from the Etruria (Tuscany and High
Latium), such as the Po Plain and the coast of Campania. <b>At the same time, Sardinia experienced the flourishing of a non-Indo-European Nuragic civilization </b>and, then, the Phoenician colonization.<br /><br /> Materials and Methods<br /><br />Samples<br />A total of <b> individuals were sampled from along the Italian Peninsula</b>presenting 12 different populations (Figure 1), <b> of them (Ladin and Grecani Salentini) being linguistic isolates</b>d
the Lucera being a historical enclave of Arabs/Berbers coming from
North Africa. A brief description of these latter three populations is
given .<br /><br />Phylogeography<br />The mtDNA haplogroup make-up of Italy as observed in our samples fits well with expectations in a typical European population. <b>Thus,
most of the Italian mtDNAs (,89%) could be attributed to
European/African groups H (,40%), I (Ethiopian)(,3%), J (near
East)(,9%), T(European) (,11%), U (European/African)(,20%; U minus U6),
V(European) (,3%), X (African)(,2%) and W(Asian) (,1%); </b>Figure 1. There are however important differences in haplogroup frequencies when examining them by main geographical<br /><br />Mitochondrial DNA haplotypes of other African origin are mainly represented by<b> haplogroups M1 (0.3%), U6 (0.8%) and L (1.2%);</b> from here onwards, L will be used to refer to all mtDNA lineages, excluding the non-African branches N and M [60,61].<br /><br />A
total of 282 Y-chromosomes were analyzed for a set of Y-SNPs and were
classified into 22 different haplogroups (Figure 3). Two haplogroups
were not found, even though markers defining these clades were tested:
N3 and R1a1. Five haplogroups represented 76.71% of the total
chromosomes: R1b3, J2(near East), I(xI1b2), <b>E3b1 and G</b>. The
frequencies averaged across populations were 26%, 21.2%, 10.2%, 9.9% and
9.2%, respectively. The remaining haplogroups sum to 23.2% in the total
sample, and never above 4% in single population samples. 21.2%, 9.9%
and 9.2%.(so `42% is either near East or African)</span><br />

<span style="font-size: small;"><br /> Autosomal ancestry in Italy<br /><br /> A panel of 52 AIMs was genotyped in 435 Italian individuals<b> in order to estimate the proportion of ancestry from a three-way differentiation: sub-Saharan Africa, Europe and Asia</b>.
Structure analyses allowed us to infer membership proportions in
population samples, and these proportions can be graphically displayed,
as in Figure 2. This analysis indicated that<b> Italians have a basal proportion of sub-Saharan ancestry that is higher (9.2%, on average) </b>than other central or northern European populations (1.5%, on average). The amount of African ancestry in Italians is however
more comparable to (but slightly higher than) the average in other
Mediterranean countries (7.1%). Figure 2 shows in a triangle plot the
relationships of Italians compared to other European, African and Asian
populations<br /><br />The North African historical legacy in South Italy<br /> There are <b>two mtDNA haplogroups, namely U6 and M1 that can be considered to be of North African origin</b>
and could therefore be used to signal the documented historical input
of this African region into Lucera. In our full set of samples, we
observed five U6 haplotypes belonging to sub-haplogroups U6a, U6a2, and
U6a4. Only one of these haplotypes was observed in Lucera. However, <b>the
other three U6 haplotypes were observed in the vicinity of the
population of South Apulia, and another at the tip of the Peninsula
(Calabria)</b>. Regarding M1 haplotypes, we observed only two carriers
in our samples sharing the same HVS-I haplotype; both were found in
Trapani (West Sicily). <b>Therefore, while South Italy shows evidence of having female introgression from North Africa, this African influence seems <u>not</u> to be particularly centered in the Lucera.</b><br /><br /> The <b>sub-clade E3b1 (originating in eastern Africa) has a wide distribution in sub-Saharan Africa</b>,
Middle East and Europe. This haplogroup reaches a frequency of 8% in
the North and Center and slightly higher in the South of Italy, 11%
(Figure 1).<b> It has also been argued that the European distribution of
E3b1 is compatible with the Neolithic demic diffusion of agriculture
[15]; </b>thus, two sub-clades, E3b1a- M78 and E3b1c- M123 present a
higher occurrence in Anatolia, the Balkans and the Italian peninsula.
Another sub-clade,<b> E3b1b-M81 is associated ith the Berber populations
and is commonly found in regions that have had historical gene flow
FROM Northern Africa, such as the <u>Iberian peninsula</u> </b>[74,75]–[76–78],
including the Canary Islands [75], and Sicily [70,79]; the absence of
microsatellite variation suggests a very recent arrival from North
Africa [80]. <b>If we assume </b>that all E3b1 represents the only
Y-chromosome continental African contribution to Italy and L and U6
lineages the continental African mtDNA component, the African component
in Italy is higher for the Y-chromosome (8–11%) than for mtDNA (1–2%). </span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><b><br /></b></span>
<span style="font-size: small;"><b>The
origin of sub-Saharan African mtDNAs in Europe (including Italian
samples) has been recently investigated by Cerezo et al. [81]; the
results indicate that a significant proportion of these lineages could
have<u> arrived in Italy more than 10,000 years ago;</u> </b>therefore,
their presence in Europe does not necessarily date to the time of the
Roman Empire, the Atlantic slave trade or to modern migration. In
addition, the Northern African influence in the Italian Peninsula is
evidenced by the presence of Northern African Y chromosome haplogroups
(E1-M78) in three geographically close samples across the southern
Apennine mountains: East Campania<br /><br />Finally,<b> in agreement with uniparental markers, analysis of AIMs/SNPs</b>
as carried out in the present study indicated that Italy shows a very
minor sub-Saharan African component that is, however, slightly higher
than non-Mediterranean Europe. This agrees with the recent findings of
Cerezo et al. [82] based on the analysis of entire mtDNA genomes
pointing to the<b> arrival in ancient and historical times of sub-Saharan African people</b>
to the Mediterranean Europe, followed by admixture. THE PRESENT STUDY
REPRESENTS THE LARGEST META-ANALYSIS CARRIED OUT TO DATE FOR THE ITALIAN
PENINSULA.(DEC2012)</span><br />

<span style="font-size: small;">Quote:<br /><span style="color: blue;">"Human Y chromosomes belonging to the haplogroup R1b1-P25, although very common in Europe, are usually rare in Africa. However, recently published studies have reported high frequencies of this haplogroup in the central-western region of the African continent and proposed that this represents a 'back-to-Africa' migration during prehistoric times. To obtain a deeper insight into the history of these lineages, we characterised the paternal genetic background of a population in Equatorial Guinea, a Central-West African country located near the region in which the highest frequencies of the R1b1 haplogroup in Africa have been found to date. In our sample, the large majority (78.6%) of the sequences belong to subclades in haplogroup E, which are the most frequent in Bantu groups. However, the frequency of the R1b1 haplogroup in our sample (17.0%) was higher than that previously observed for the majority of the African continent. Of these R1b1 samples, nine are defined by the V88 marker, which was recently discovered in Africa. As high microsatellite variance was found inside this haplogroup in Central-West Africa and a decrease in this variance was observed towards Northeast Africa, our findings do not support the previously hypothesised movement of Chadic-speaking people from the North across the Sahara as the explanation for these R1b1 lineages in Central-West Africa. The present findings are also compatible with an origin of the V88-derived allele in the Central-West Africa, and its presence in North Africa may be better explained as the result of a migration from the south during the mid-Holocene."</span><br />--Gonzalez et al. 2013.

As late as the Mesolithic, Europeans still had African characteristics. Mesolithic LaBrana Man had African skin pigmentation variants, and was also generally lactose intolerant like many contemporary African populations. Said sub-Saharan African populations can also have blue eyes- nothing unusual in ultra diverse Africa- the most phenotypically diverse region on earth.<br />

A quick roundup of recent DNA studies here and there on ancient African movement into Europe..<br />
<br />
<b> Ancient West African Neolithic in Europe</b><br />
<br />
<span style="color: blue;">"Due to their geographic locations, Spain and Portugal seem to be ideal places for searching for These lineages... The L3f variant found in Asturias seems to constitute an Iberian-specific haplogroup, distantly related to lineages in Northern Africa and with a deep ancestry in Western Africa. Coalescent algorithms estimate the minimum arrival time as 8,000 years ago, and a possible route through the Gibraltar Strait... Results are concordant with a previously proposed Neolithic connection between Southern Europe and Western Africa, which might be key to the proper understanding of the ancient links between these two continents." </span><br />
--Pardinas et al 2014. Over the sands and far away: Interpreting an Iberian mitochondrial <br />
lineage with ancient Western African origins. Am Jr Hum Bio, v26, i6, 777-783<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>Long-standing ancient migration from Africa to Europe</b><br />
<span style="color: blue;">"Mitochondrial DNA sequences and restriction fragment polymorphisms were retrieved from three Islamic 12th-13th century samples of 71 bones and teeth (with >85% efficiency) from Madinat Baguh (today called Priego de Cordoba, Spain). Compared with 108 saliva samples from the present population of the same area, the medieval samples show a higher proportion of sub-Saharan African lineages that can only partially be attributed to the historic Muslim occupation. In fact, the unique sharing of transition 16175, in L1b lineages, with Europeans, instead of Africans, suggests a more ancient arrival to Europe from Africa. The present day Priego sample is more similar to the current south Iberian population than to the medieval sample from the same area. The increased gene flow in modern times could be the main cause of this difference."</span><br />
--Casas et al 2006. Human mitochondrial DNA diversity in an archaeological site in al-Andalus.. Am J Phy Anthro. 2006 131(4):539-51.<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>African migrations via Gibraltar</b><br />
<span style="color: blue;"><br />“ These early Neolithic populations of Andalusia appear to have consisted of a number of distinct groups (12), one of which is suggested to have African origin due to finds of characteristic red ochre ceramics (13, 14). Similarities have also been noted between the predynastic Badarian Egyptian culture dated to the 5th millennium B.C. and the Late Atlantic Neolithic culture in western Andalusia (14). Previously, the appearance of the Late Atlantic Neolithic culture had been placed at a significantly later date than the Egyptian culture, and this chronology and the cultural similarity were interpreted as implying that Egypt was the original source (14). However, more accurate radiocarbon dates obtained from Late Atlantic Neolithic culture sites subsequently redated the origin of this culture to being approximately the same as that of the predynastic Badarian Egyptian culture (15), leading to the hypothesis that these two cultures might derive from a common area, perhaps through pastoral groups living in the Sahara. The culture linked to the Late Atlantic Neolithic period is known to have been dedicated almost exclusively to cattle breeding, secondarily complemented by sheep and goat breeding (14), suggesting that an investigation of the origin of Iberian cattle may offer further insight into early Iberian–African cultural contacts.

<b>[b]The skin color front: DNA studies show that light skin in Europe only occurred recently[/b]</b><br />
<br />
<span style="color: blue;">"SLC24A5 was shown to play a pivotal role in skin pigmentation lightening in Europeans 10. Interestingly, the haplotype profile of SLC24A5 in CEU revealed a high affinity to aFM ( D aFM, MHG = 2) and a substantial distance to aHG ( D aHG, MHG = 28), as suggests that skin lightening associated with SLC24A5 originated from Near East, and likely was introduced into ancient Europeans via farming transition. This was strongly supported by a recent study based on 83 ancient DNA specimens 53."</span><br />

<br />
<br />
<span style="color: blue;">"We also found evidence of selection at two loci that affect skin pigmentation. The derived alleles 63 of rs1426654 at SLC24A5 and rs16891982 at SLC45A2 are, respectively, fixed and almost fixed in present -64 day Europeans 23,24. As previously reported 7,11,12, both derived alleles are absent or very rare in western 65 hunter -gatherers. suggesting that mainland European hunter -gatherers may have had dark skin 66 pigmentation. SLC45A2 first appears in our data at low frequency in the Early Neolithic, and increases 67 steadily in frequency until the present... In contrast, the derived allele of 69 SLC24A5 increases rapidly in frequency to around 0.9 in the Early Neolithic, suggesting that most of the 70 increase in frequency of this allele is due to its high frequency in the early farmers who migrated from the southeast at this time, although there is still strong evidence of ongoing selection after the arrival 72 of farming .."</span><br />

QUOTE: <br />
<i>“We sequenced
genomes from a ~7,000 year old early farmer from Stuttgart in Germany,
an ~8,000 year old hunter-gatherer from Luxembourg, and seven ~8,000
year old hunter gatherers from southern Sweden.. The Stuttgart sample
was taken from a female skeleton excavated in 1982 at the site
Viesenhäuser Hof, Stuttgart-Mühlhausen, Germany. It was attributed to
the Linearbandkeramik (5,500-4,800 BC) .. The successful model (Fig. 2A)
includes the previously reported gene flow into Native Americans from
an MA1-like population6, as well as the novel inference that Stuttgart
is partially (44 ± 10%) derived from a “Basal Eurasian” lineage that
split prior to the separation of eastern non-Africans from the common
ancestor of WHG and ANE…<br />A Basal Eurasian lineage in the Near East is
plausible given the presence of anatomically modern humans in the
Levant29 ~100 thousand years ago and African-related tools likely made
by modern humans in Arabia30,31. Alternat</i><i>ively, evidence for gene flow
between the Near East and Africa32, and African morphology in
pre-farming Natufians33 from Israel, may also be consistent with the
population representing a later movement of humans out of Africa and
into the Near East.” </i><br />
