Because 55 years ago, our culture wasn’t suffering from the cancer/disease of political correctness. Nobody knew they were supposed to be offended back then.

Maybe because they had real racism to deal with, I guess.

Or because people were too smart to think that this had anything to do with Negroes.

But the story here isn't that some idiot professor writes an article like this.

It's that most people recognize that the professor and the article are idiotic.

Because we didn’t have so many nutsy, mediocre academic pretenders looking for their 15 minutes, back then - nor a media culture that would tolerate them even if we did.
