How many of these Brown University " activists " with an identity
politics grudge against Columbus Day have no quarrel with Hawk Hillary
and the New Colonialism in the Middle East?
The Palestinians are also a wronged " indigenous people ". You would think scholars could rise above identity politics rage and just deal with the historic significance of the European " discovery " of America.
And how do you " correct " this injustice to indigenous people ? By extending more privilege to already privileged members of the offended group ? They have no quarrel with everyday capitalist injustice - CLASS inequality. They just want a greater slice of the pie .
A good word for all this is PHONY. Happy Columbus Day !
