Just a natural extension of all this crap. Everything historical, traditional or Western is racist.

When you're stuck in the past, there can be no future.

It's like the movie Groundhog Day.

“Will there be a separate water fountain for us at the formal?” Other students chimed in asking...

I would have have responded “Do you want there to be one?”

If only these academic parvenus understood that it was rock’n’roll in the 50s that opened the hearts of white and black young people to overcome the barriers set by earlier generations. The music led the way.

Harvard is above the Mason-Dixon line. Was there any official (as opposed to sub rosa) segregation up there during the 1950s, i.e., separate public accommodations?

Were there separate drinking fountains in Boston as there were in Alabama and Georgia? Who knew?

No point in arguing with them...just tell them they don’t have to attend if it bothers them.

A “sock hop” was typically a dance on a high school basketball court; you took your shoes off to protect the floor. That is now racist?

Sock hop with everyone invited = Racist.

Coloreds only microagression free safe zones = Just fine.
