Wow...that is just...hmmm. That article explains what I had figured about the Professor, but it’s quite clear here. He seems to be obsessed with race and has a gigantic chip on his shoulder. My favorite quote is here:

“Is it right for African Americans to use the N word? Pitufo Geiger BAGUIO CITY, PHILIPPINES

(Gates): I was raised hearing black people using the N word, and I don’t find it offensive at all. I do find it offensive when a nonblack person uses it.”
