There's no silver cloud for which the identity-politics crowd can't detect a downbeat lining!
Take the news of black women being appointed to some of the country's most prestigious positions. You'd think that would be cause for unqualified celebration in liberal circles. But not so fast!
On Mehdi Hasan's MSNBC show today, guest host Melissa Murray led a segment on "the glass cliff." The notion is that women, particularly women of color, tend only to be appointed to prestigious positions at institutions that are in crisis, and thereby are being "set up to fail."

So when James Clyburn, in return for his endorsement in the South Carolina primary, extracted Biden’s promise to appoint a black woman to the Supreme Court, and pushed Ketanji Jackson, guess he was fiendishly setting Brown Jackson up to fail!
Ping to Liberal Media Criticism list.
Gee, it couldn’t be that because of Affirmative Action they were promoted to positions way above their competence. Not to mention, black women strive to be diva queen bees like Beyonce.
It’s not as if they’re biologists.
They have a point but it’s often about becoming a mayor. In nearly every city where the first black mayor was elected it was either the final act of throwing in the towel on its demise or the signal that it was time to flee.
Businesses left and neighborhoods declined. Since the early 1970s the swearing in of a black mayor meant “the troubled city facing so many serious challenges” was hopelessly gone except for government aid. “Food deserts” due to supermarket chains giving up due to shoplifting and crime and the loss of major retailers are frequently symptoms of dead cities.
Well, Prog Left Democrat Operatives picked the Prog Left Democrat Useful Idiots with the very best Prog Left Qualifications for those Prog Left Socialist positions, so they'll be the very best Failures that Prog Left salaries can buy!
Could it be that the positions they are gifted by affirmative action are expected to be run like a socialist state, and so far socialist states fail tremendously?
I can’t imagine anyone other than a Donald Trump being able to go into a university leadership role and plow through the headaches that faculty implanted by the leftist state would inflict upon them.
The people most hurt by affirmative action are qualified blacks who are forever tainted as recipient of “preferential treatment” whenever they’re promoted.
Justice Jackson: “It’s a Wonderful Life is white supremacy.”
MSNBC: Justice Jackson was’Set Up To Fail’!’
There are people married to the pity party. It’s why so many black fake hate crimes.
Which is the husband?

Kinda stupid. Justice Jackson has a lifetime appointment and can’t ‘fail’ except that through her own incompetence she may bring contempt on herself. She has already made a start in that direction, by enacting the TV stereotype of an aggressive wokey black woman who can’t shut up.
Claudine Gay can’t fail because Harvard wouldn’t hear of it. She could crash the entire fraudulent edifice and the faculty would rally to her defense, probably blame it on Trump.
It’s no more complicated than evil bastards stealing from others using a confidence game.
All they needed was a majority of bleeding heart idiots to vote the criminal masterminds into power and codify the con game into law.

True! They are confusing cause with effect - or correlation with causation!
Regards,
As a Harvard alum, I WANT Claudine Gay to fail SOON!!!!
It’s not because she’s black. It’s because she’s a “social science” propagandist and a “sexual harassment” activist, and NOT a scholar!!!!
Black women are certainly sucking up all the female TV commercial roles.
She married into white privilege?
